I opened FB24177266 for this (AsyncIteratorProtocol does not infer isolation in next() in Xcode 27). I wasn't able to reproduce it easily from the swift commandline, so I used FB, but I think it should be reproducible without Xcode (I just…
I can't decide if this is a bug: https://gist.github.com/rnapier/31b8fa3a7a1d8db28efdf63e2fc30e78
In Swift 6, Xcode 27b4, this fails (and requires `try`)
let events: some AsyncSequence<Int, Never> = AsyncStream(unfolding: {0})
var stream =…
…and here's the big "but."
I'm asking "do coding assistants improve quality and speed?" And I think we're there. For startups, a coding assistant can make a 1-dev "team" make sense for shipping web+ios+android. I think AI kills "cross-plat…
I'm curious if this is a controversial opinion:
Claude Opus ~ 4.6 is good enough for just about all coding problems.
4.5 is ok, but I do like 4.6 better. 4.8 is even better (and what I mostly use), but not a lot. If I were forced back to 4…
For those using the metal toolchain:
Is there a good way to cleanup ones from older versions of Xcode (other than one-by-one in the Components tab)? I've got like 10 of them installed (at >700MB each).
Just deleting them directly from /Sys…

I keep going around on this. Yes, it's a desperate play from a collapsing company. I can't imagine it working. But I'm sure they feel they have to do agent something something a…

Please do read this. I've been on the drowning side of this situation and was saved by a good friend. Drowning does not look like drowning. I appeared completely calm, but I could not…
Is xcresulttool missing in Xcode 26.5.0?
xcrun -f xcresulttool
xcrun: error: unable to find utility "xcresulttool", not a developer tool or in PATH
I updated the Commandline tools package this morning (before I upgraded Xcode itself). Did …
I appreciate this post. It captures from another direction something I've been saying: "We should not move faster than the speed of judgement." I think the models have already pretty well gotten us to that point. They can improve things a …
I believe that there's no Swift-native form of NSPurgeableData (and NSDiscardableContent). My other belief is that NSPurgableData can be released when the app is suspended rather than the app being killed under memory pressure.
Am I correc…
RE: https://mastodon.social/@bagder/116363022959230849
I’ve been seeing this too. A few months ago, I opposed automatically running AI code review on PRs because it was such a mixed bag. Some good stuff, but a lot of noise.
But recently it…
