Network Link Conditioner 💡 It used to be that downloading an additional tool to debug various network conditions for your iOS apps. Did you know it's now built directly inside Xcode? 😬 Xcode -> Debug -> Induce Device Conditions -> Network Link.

My son, who's 8, created this level for me in Geometry Dash. It uses an 8bit version of Still Alive by @jonathancoulton (a song he knows I love). He painstakingly added all the lyrics, word by word, even making his own Aperture Science Logo in-game. I am so proud.

Is there a more productive way to spend my morning than digging out my old high school physics equations to build a SwiftUI rain drop simulator so that the droplets can accurately bounce off the clock hands? Almost Certainly. Is there a more fun way to spend my morning? Nope! 😁

The reason I needed to work out the round rect math is because I realized that the bezel shape on the Ultra isn’t as I first thought a Superellipse, instead it looks to actually follow a continuous round rect. So I can make my border marks better track the corners if I switched.

Spent the morning immersed in math I only half understand, trying to find the xy-points along a rounded rectangle. Got there in the end through the “brute force” method of just trying different things until it finally works; after completely failing to solve it theoretically.

Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences in HTTP Headers ('HTTP Response Splitting') in swift-nio

`NIOHTTP1` and projects using it for generating HTTP responses can be subject to a HTTP Response Injection attack. This occurs when a HTTP/1.1 server accepts user generated input from an incoming r...
