AI coding agents make you dramatically faster. The cost they carry is quieter: a slow erosion of how well you understand the software you are shipping. Here is how I have come to think about that trade, and how I try to stay on the right side of it. Read more ›

Somewhere in the mid-aughts eXtreme Programming (XP) practices became widely-discussed in software. From that time forward, a strange chasm emerged in the discourse. I would stumble across large pockets of programmers discussing—with full confidence—the fact that “nobody is actually doing TDD”, “pairing all the time is a myth”, “no one can actually succeed with those […] Read more ›

I read HN on my phone every day and never really settled on a reader, so I wrote my own and finally tidied it up enough to put out there.It's plain SwiftUI with no third-party dependencies. A few things I spent the most time on:Comments are parsed and drawn as native text instead of being dumped into a web view. Links, italics, quotes and code blocks behave like the rest of the OS, text selection works, and threads collapse instantly. The whole comment tree comes back from the Algolia API in ... Read more ›
Holly Borla and Joe Heck (Hacker News): Swift 6.3 introduces the @c attribute, which lets you expose Swift functions and enums to C code in your project.

In this technical collaboration between AWS and the authors, we present a pragmatic solution: agentic overlays. Agentic overlays are thin wrapper layers that transform traditional REST-based services into agents capable of participating in A2A interactions. They also expose REST APIs as tools compatible with the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Together, they let enterprises add A2A capabilities to existing REST services without rewriting business logic, without duplicating code, and without run... Read more ›

Imagine building a brilliant productivity tool, a system monitor, or a sleek menu bar utility in Flutter, only for users to forget to open it. If your desktop application relies on seamless, background availability, integrating a "Launch at Startup" feature is essential. While doing this natively requires writing platform-specific code (C++ for Windows, Swift for macOS, and C for Linux), the Flutter ecosystem has a fantastic package that handles the heavy lifting: launch_at_startup. Why Launc... Read more ›
