New outlet installed and up and running. Pandemonium averted in the house as we have restored internet service. Early morning victories FTW!

Turns out our ONT box’s power is out because the main outlet in the garage blew out. So it’s an early morning Home Depot trip for me. Thank the Lord they are open so early!

Woke up to a Frontier FIOS internet outage. Good times!

The Mariners are 12-2! Truly unreal start to the season.

These are some blazing fast 5Ge speeds I’m seeing. So glad they decided to rebrand their LTE network on iOS 12.2.

I think my second favorite thing about writing my Scorebook 1.6 retrospective was that I hadn’t written tag support into Maverick yet so I couldn’t link all my old posts in one URL.

It was a lot of fun putting that together. I really love having my own blog engine 🙂

The Seattle @xcoders are looking for a speaker for our meeting next Thursday (3/14). Get in touch if you want to give a talk!

Who says you shouldn’t ship an update on a Friday? Scorebook 1.6 is here!

This is the sync update I’ve been working on for a long time. I’ll have a retrospective blog post coming in the next few days. It feels so good to get it out the door!

Every time I have to “renegotiate” my deal with a telco (in my case it’s Frontier FiOS) I feel like I’m getting screwed with my pants on. Their introductory rates for new customers are merely a gateway to charge more later on when you become a “loyal” customer.

Felt a pop in the center of my lower back this morning, followed by pain and difficulty moving. Thankfully ice and a hot shower seem to be helping things a bit. Hope your Saturday is off to a better start 🙂

When I’m procrastinating shipping an app update, I change something or implement something on my blog.

Why yes, I am putting in a dark mode. Why do you ask? 😉

I’ve never wished I knew how to cross-country ski and had gear to do so. That changed this morning on my walk to work, when the sidewalks were buried under the fallen snow and the plowed snow from the road.

It was a super snowy walk into my office this morning. Someone had ridden their snowmobile down the sidewalk, and my feet kept sinking into the snow. I ended up walking on the road most of the way.

I’ve got one more feature to add to Scorebook 1.6 and then I’ll be ready to ship it. I want to add data import/export to the Files app.

We got an Orbi wifi pair last week and tried to print to our ancient LaserJet 1300 today but it only gave us errors.

Turns out our Synology DS1515+ has 4 USB ports on it and can function as a print server. I love learning new things about gear we already have.

Adding some shortcuts to Scorebook, and I can’t for the life figure out why it’s preferable to use a static UIApplicationShortcutItem.

The app still needs to have the identifiers coded somewhere for handling, so why mess with the Info.plist?

New post from jsorge.net: Scorebook 1.5 Retrospective

The new version of XcodeGen was released today! I upgraded easily, broke apart my modules into separate included yaml spec files, and even implemented Artsy’s advice to use SPM to run it.

Good night for Scorebook progress!

Wow. Started a Swift 5 branch for Scorebook and in < 10 minutes it was building without warnings. This language has come a long, long way.

Kites over Long Beach.

Made it to my parents’ beach cabin just in time for the tail end of the sunset.

I love the old-timey signs that are still on display around downtown Seattle.
