"SwiftUI is accessible by default" is one of the most repeated misconceptions in iOS development. I've heard it in conference talks, accessibility reports, and job interviews.
First post on Mobile A11y in 4 years.

(Context: I created an AI that can build podcast feeds for any topic or person you want)
I got it to find all your guest appearances in the last year and create a feed.
It also maintains a feed of Ian’s Striking 13 “podcast”. These fees will work in any podcast player, that what I wanted.
@dorianlynskey.bsky.social thanks for being my unwitting guinea pig 😊
Using the skills you have access to research and find Podcasts that Dorian Lynskey has been a guest on in the last 12 months do not include any podcast he is the main host or cohost stuff. The name of this podcast feed that you will create on Giftcast is called the Dorian Lindsey bootlegs.
This was my loose prompt to my AI agent, it took less than 5 minutes to create a feed: u.giftcast.app/yk5f2JHeYY
My personal robot also knows how to notify me and Overcast picking up the new episode
My AI podcast feed generator just added the the latest version on Striking 13 by @iandunt.bsky.social
This makes me incredibly happy.
THIS IS NOT A JOKE
Be Funny Or Die returns.
How comedy works in our brains and makes us human.
AUDIOBOOK and E-BOOK available again… at last.

This is NOT our war but we must defend those who have aided us for decades.
The Swift Performance team isn’t *my* team, but they’re in my hallway. Or in London if you’d prefer. They’re looking for an engineer who’s not afraid of optimizers. jobs.apple.com/en-us/detail...
It provides something Ian can’t - or won’t - do: a publicly accessible RSS feed that works in whichever podcast player you prefer.

My cobbled together robot servant has now been tasked with checking the Friday morning email and updating the feed automatically.
In the last six hours, driven by nothing more than a desire to listen to Striking 13 in the podcast player of my choice while walking to Tesco on a Friday, I used that system, and, somewhat ironically given this week’s theme, AI. Extracting the audio links, building the feed, and publishing it.
Just before Christmas I spent the best part of two weeks building a small system for myself.
It has since gathered tens of rather indifferent users.
An RSS 2.0 feed is, almost invisible. If audio exists publicly on the internet and doesn’t require a sign-in, you can create a feed from it.
For years I’ve wanted a simple way to curate podcast feeds. One of the beauties of these technologies, designed in a more open era of the internet, perfected without the slightest thought for monetisation.
It’s a thoughtful, intelligent piece of writing each week. Insightful, well-considered, and sprinkled with comic vignettes of a man half-negotiating a midlife crisis while trying to make sense of a modern world he has little interest in — and perhaps even less ability to navigate.
Whether out of inability or indifference, the rather wonderful Striking 13 podcast by Ian Dunt @iandunt.bsky.social seems — as far as I can tell — to be available only on Spotify, via a direct link from the Friday morning email, or through Substack.
Pay your fucking taxes!
Can you send me a project with a minimal example and I’ll take a look
This applies to young people too, if ANYTHING changes with your bowel health, ask your GP for this simple test 👇
We talk a lot about the special players we’ve bought, the diamonds in the rough. But should we now start talking about RLB as a special manager? Far from the finished article but he learns so much from every game, could he take us (in a season or 3) to unimaginable heights?
