The speaker lineup for @iOSKonf looks amazing 🤩 I can’t imagine a better way to kick off the summer. If I lived in Europe I’d go to every euro conference because they’re always so much fun and so darn helpful. Get out there people!
Heads-up. @iOSKonf needs a small boost. On the final stretch with ticket sales and they need just that little push. @IOSDEVUK @swift_leeds @swiftconn @SwiftIslandNL @iOSConf @swiftalps @swiftcraftuk spread the word. Last few tickets for Macedonia May 15 Https://ioskonf.mk

One of my favorite parts of being in the iOS dev community is when you're looking for an app, you find one that's obviously best-in-class, and it turns out it's made by your friend. Never. Gets. Old.

I was laid off from Lyft today, so I'm looking for work! If you're hiring remote or in Montreal, hit me up. 12 years iOS experience, 9 years Swift. My DMs are open.

Update: got the police involved, and my package mysteriously reappeared. Still a bit unsettling that one of my neighbours is a package thief though. Welp.

I don't know what I did to deserve being nominated, but I want you all to know that I'm both floored and incredibly humbled. Thank you @AppForce1 and the team at @iOSConf for making this possible. There'll be more to come in 2023. Just you wait 😉

Looks like I’ll be available for work starting in April! If any of you have leads for someone with 10 years of iOS experience, I’m all ears :) Looking for a technical leadership role in a team, or IC work without lots of red tape 😅

Apple should open a development office in Montreal. There’s so much talent in this city, on both the technical level and the management level. Huge untapped resource.

Happy to see a new HomePod, but it’s unfortunate that the design hasn’t changed. Biggest flaw IMO is that it’s impossible to see whether you’ve triggered Siri when the device is above eye level. It needs some sort of ring around it like the Amazon Echo line.
