@nikitonsky@mastodon.online I just started re-writing an app in AppKit/UIKit because SwiftUI is just too slow 🥲

@lhp@mastodon.social @ieure@retro.social I used to use lazygit and it was good enough... But jj is really more than that. For instance, I really like that it doesn't have a staging area. Everything is always tracked automatically and you can jump to revisions easily at any time (no need to worry about unstaged changes)

@lhp@mastodon.social @ieure@retro.social I think it’s a Google project and he started promoting contributing heavily to it. It’s sad because jujutsu fits so well in my workflow I don’t think I can go back to using only git

@ieure@retro.social Damn, Jujutsu too… I guess I should have expected that

Its so trivial to get key modifiers (command, option, etc) in Gesture Recognizers both in UIKit and AppKit that is puzzling to me why Apple didn't include them in SwiftUI's `DragGesture`. It's something you can do in about 10 minutes by creating a custom gesture recognizer representable.

@fasterandworse@hci.social As much as Scott Jenson seems to not be a bad faith actor, we can't ignore his background. He is a corporate, big corporation guy, and despite all of the best intentions any input of his will be colored by this ideology in the end

@ramon_wilhelm@mastodon.gamedev.place @aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place Damn, I love this game

I'm having to build a custom sidebar to bypass this... and for my use case I actually like it better than the regular inspector.

TIL a #swiftui `.inspector` can simply crash your program when you try to resize it (on macOS at least).

Not to mention that it can easily mess up the layout of views that are inside it.

@curthard89@mstdn.social Looks great! Happy to see a non-vibe-coded macos app nowadays!

@yosh@yosh.is @soph@grrl.me I see this argument all the time: that A.I. will somehow end the copyright laws and we'll somehow magically end up in a better situation. I think this is an extremely naive stance. If copyright law is "a tool of capital", why would its sucessor, brought about by A.I. tech-capitalism, not be equally as bad, or even worse?

@marcoarment@mastodon.social I wish there was a better alternative to the Apple ecosystem for the folks building commercial software.

@ctietze@mastodon.social As always 😄. I lose track of so many small things that Apple could do in SwiftUI that would make the life of developers just so much easier... but I guess they must have other priorities!

The @ActiveViewObject property wrapper above is actually another hack I had to come up with because, for some wild reason, @FocusedValue/ .focusedSceneValue would cause memory leaks that I could not get hid of.

Another day another hacky solution to go around SwiftUI limitations on macOS.

I wanted to be able to use the "Select All" item from the app menu without having to replace the built items that SwiftUI provides.

I was pretty sure that implementing a `selectAll` method in my AppDelegate *should* work but it just would not happen.

Turns out you must also make the app delegate conform to `NSStandardKeyBindingResponding` *which doesn't even have this method in it!!*

@broadwaybabyto@zeroes.ca I lost most of my income due to being ill. Luckily I had a strong support network to help me, otherwise I don’t really know how I would have made it. It pains me that most people in the world probably are not as privileged, basic needs are a basic human right, but society still lets most of our resource go to AI bubbles and other scams
