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. 🎉🎅

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.

If you follow me here via Mastodon you may not know that I cannot see my list of followers. If you follow me, I probably want to follow you back. Say “hi” and I will.
Well, it’s official. One of the issues folks can “debate in a healthy manner, without resorting to violence” on Twitter is whether to murder the Vice President and all of Congress after losing a Presidential election. Thank goodness it won’t become a “free-for-all hellscape”.
I released Unread 3.2 with new custom app icons, a new “Blue on Black theme”, article action improvements, and more.
It is difficult to see in the photo, but there are two deer — one behind the other.
I setup a Mastodon server for my business. You can now follow Unread on Mastodon or on Micro.blog.

Last evening’s CocoaHeads Boston included a great presentation by @hyperjeff about Physical. Physical provides a nice Swift syntax for manipulating physical measures - like 10.5.centimeters + 3.3.feet

Great turnout at my polling location today. Not November 2020 level, but at least 3x the turnout we saw in the September primary.
