I know AppKit is showing its age, but it still does a lot really well.
Odd SwiftUI Bug on macOS
#This is an odd bug on macOS:
- Make the main content view a
NavigationSplitView
:
struct ContentView: View {
var body: some View {
NavigationSplitView {
Spacer()
} content: {
Spacer()
} detail: {
Spacer()
}
}
}
-
Launch the app.
-
Observe that there is an “Enter Full Screen” menu item in the “View” menu.
-
Go to the Finder.
-
Go back to the app. Observe that the “Enter Full Screen” menu item in the “View” menu is gone.

Snow day.
Do I know someone who works on Feedburner?

I think it’s a great thing, but I am very surprised to learn that ASWebAuthenticationSession

“I’m too old for this.”
– My furnace.
The furnace is running fine, but we had -12℉ (-24℃) temperatures overnight.
FYI for anyone who uses Feedly – they announced a 6-hour maintenance window starting at 6am PST Saturday.
I released Unread 3.3 with the ability to create an article from a webpage, a Readwise article action, and more.
It’s a snowy day for a walk, but I’m determined to get my five miles (8km) in.

At tonight’s online CocoaHeads Boston meeting I am giving a presentation on using alternate app icons in an iOS app. The focus will be automation around using a large number of icons with the same shapes but different color combinations.
New participants are always welcome.
I wrote a blog post about the past year and the year ahead for Unread.
New year’s resolutions start in a few weeks, right?
Happy New Year!
Made cookies. Ate numerous mistakes.
My power was restored after only about 6 hours. 🎉🎅
Dear Santa, A 36-hour power outage was not on my wish list this year.
Always a good feeling when a complex server deployment operation goes smoothly.
I am excited to see MarsEdit 5 ship. I particularly like its Markdown syntax highlighting and its new microposting feature. Check it out. Congratulations @danielpunkass.
