It’s a real sorrow. Twitter connected me deeply with a bunch of Mac, then iOS, then VR folks. I wouldn’t be the same dev without it.
Adios Twitter. Hello Mastodon. Please hit me up over at @nevyn@mas.to.

ALVR on Vision Pro is nearly perfect. Absolutely incredible work from the open source developers
Newer improvements have been: allowing HEVC/h264 switching, vastly improved latency, giving the application a Steam Link type “Enter VR” button UX, AND removing hand/arm occlusion

My Apple Watch Series 5 went from my favorite device to almost fucking useless after the watchOS 10 upgrade. Figured it was teething problems but the performance issues remain unfixed. Takes seconds to even start Apple Pay payment, used to be instant. All UI is slow and stuttery.

Making a NES game was super fun and a real challenge. Neither I nor @nevyn had programmed a NES game before. But thanks to Nevyn's habit of watching NES dev videos in his free time, he managed to guide us both through this epic quest.

After 17 years on Twitter, I finally give up. It feels like ol’ musky’s trying to tear the place down, because it’s getting unusable, features and communities breaking left and right.

clearly Unrecorded is using neural radiance fields for its hyper realistic visual style? right?

We’re switching out boxes and planes for real meshes designed by @djezewska, and I’m loving the process :) lots of math to make them resize without distorting their proportions, but it works!!

It focuses on two primary interactions - teleportation & snap turning 👀

Universal apps are 10-100 times more expensive in design and development than 2 native apps for each platform.
Based on 14 different shipped products.
Universal apps never feels and looks good. Sorry.
