do you ever have that thought

the thought where instead of doing your thing in an ad hoc way you're going to define a new file format to configure it in

and instead of writing the parser for the file format in an ad hoc way you're going to write the best parsing/lexing/generation/transformation framework there has ever been

so that when you finally get around to actually doing your thing, it'll be easy?

ad-hoc tuah, specialize that thang

Long ago when you ran your app in Xcode it was pretty rare for you to see junk logs emitted from core frameworks that you don't control.

Nowadays just a simple SwiftUI control can regularly emit autolayout constraint warnings that we can't even address.

This log shows the first few lines of an app I just started working on. Only 1 line here is relevant to me, the rest is noise I can't hide or address.

proposal: a game that is just a creative management game engine and you can download mods that additively combine prisons, theme parks, hospitals, factories, restaurants, cities, beaver cities, etc.

dad bought himself a Smart Lightbulb and i did manage to get it to work with his phone but also confirmed that you can't actually control it if the router isn't connected to the internet.

Surprise needle attack!

It's good to be a supportive parent.
