If you think the nuclear-powered supercarrier USS Gerald R. Ford is the most powerful ship in the world, you are wrong. It's actually the German cruise ship Mein Schiff 4 (pictured), which successfully transited the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend
Palantir are about six months away from ordering their employees to leave audio logs scattered around their offices

Another cool proposal coming through #swift evolution -- non-copyable continuations! #swiftlang #concurrency

Do I know someone who can escalate this at the IEEE? Because frankly, it's very embarrassing for the IEEE to allow such blatant plagiarism to happen at a conference that it sponsors.
An IEEE conference has published a plagiarised version of a paper I wrote with @seph.bsky.social. I already reported it to the conference chairs and the IEEE Ethics Reporting Line 3 months ago, and nothing happened.

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I.
I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

On top of that think all the progress is currently pulled back by not the optimal processes we have in the industry, it was never an issue to deliver fast and stable.
Again, it’s just an instrument. It’s evolving pretty fast, but I still think chat is a really bad experience for that. So future is not in OpenAI, Anthropic, Google or Microsoft—but whoever will come up with better UX.
Was playing with LLMs lately. Some stuff is impressive, some is 💩, e.g. building macros in Swift worked pretty well—you have an idea and just ask llm to implement, and it will be done quite fast and precise.
But working with distributed actors, and distributed systems ended really really bad.

We've been building Hummingbird to be the best Swift server framework we can.
If Hummingbird has been useful to you or your team, sponsoring is one of the most direct ways to help us keep maintaining and improving it.

Add cloud syncing and collaboration 🙃

Looks like we do have to get serious about deploying post-quantum cryptography sooner than I had thought, if it’s true that you really can calculate discrete logs on the P-256 curve in just 26,000 physical cubits (100x fewer than previously thought) arstechnica.com/security/202...
Wendy allows you to write Swift for a variety of embedded devices.
Jetson & Raspberry Pi - and even microcontrollers!
“That said, I'm worried because I'm just looking at buying a new iPad for my mom”
I wouldn’t worry much—regular non-developer people don’t care much if it’s Liquid Glass or not.
Ah, just seen same reply 😜🙃
People say they’ve combined Leon and Grace gameplay surprisingly well?
Haven’t played RE in a long time, but wanna try this one.
Internet became artificial, sad times. 🥲
Two years ago at #WasmIO I talked about (at that time) experimental support for #Wasm in #SwiftLang. Today I'm back on stage with Yuta Saito to present what's new in now official Swift for Wasm! If you're attending, I'm happy to chat in the hallway track 🙂

What specifically done?
YES! YES!!! Possibly not a single person following me will give a crap about it but when I saw this I literally dropped my phone. If I get married tomorrow it would still only be the second best thing to happen to me this week. Or year. Holy shit.
Do you have an existing Swift codebase depending on native C/C++ libraries like SDL, OpenGL, OpenAL, zlib etc that you want to run in the browser or a standalone JavaScript runtime? Then this pitch is for you! 🚀
