    How do I fully deactivate the Apple TV remote’s stupid side mounted Siri button? I want it to do exactly nothing to avoid interrupting the programme when casually grabbing the remote.

    All the talk lately about the Lensa AI app made me look into learning more about Artificial Intelligence. Judging by this video it’s mostly a fancy term for decision trees 🤨 https://youtu.be/_S3m0V_ZF_Q

    10 minutes from App Store review submission to Ready For Sale is a new record for me.

    Thanks to a little help from a friend, Germans can now enjoy(?) monitoring electricity prices in their native language 🇩🇪 apps.apple.com/us/app/sp…

    So, I’ve never seen the word “summonsed” before. Is it an actual word in American English or is this a misspelling of “summoned” hinting at some kind of fraud attempt?

    Official looking document stating that “You have been summonsed for jury service”

    Oops, EU is transitioning to standard time in the morning and my Spot app has a DST changeover bug. Easily fixed and currently in expedited review.

    Which makes me wonder if App Review see a marked bump in expedited review requests on the Saturday before time changes 🤔

    Do I know anyone on here who wants to translate 50 phrases from English (or Swedish) to 🇩🇪German🇩🇪?

    I’m working on adding electricity prices for the German market to the Spot app, but don’t want to release it without localizing it.

    Announcing Spot, the electricity prices tracker app

    I recently released an iOS app for tracking electricity prices in the nordic countries. It can show the current price in a lock screen widget, and if you want to be notified about tomorrow’s prices ahead of time it can do that too.

    If you are in Denmark, Finland, Norway or Sweden you should give it a spin and let me know what you think.

    It’s been a lot of fun to work with with Swift Charts in practice. Trying to get SwiftUI gestures to behave remains an extremely frustrating experience. apps.apple.com/us/app/sp…

    I love it when I have to head outside to debug GPS modules that need a clear view of the sky. A picnic table in the park makes for an excellent temporary work desk.

    I bet Apple’s rumored headset’s outward facing screen would show expressions using your Memoji’s eyes, not a video feed of your actual eyes, because:

    1) Your eyes are in darkness inside the headset. 2) Plastering real eyes on a tech device would look extremely creepy.

    Looks like I have a fun weekend to look forward to! I plan to sign off from planet Earth for a while to crank away on this little yellow square 🟨.
