I was interested whether Golden Gate finally fixed the fucked-up look of NavigationStack in sheets on macOS, and I'm happy to announce that now it's fucked up in a completely new way! #swiftui #macdev

Coming to Cork `2.0.4`: New workflow for granting Cork Full Disk Access permissions, to fix this problem: github.com/buresdv/Cork... What do you guys think? Ever since I deciphered `Transferable`, I'm making everything drag-and-drop #swift #swiftUI #macOS #buildinpublic #macdev #homebrew #CorkApp

Today I went to a pretty nice restaurant, and the waitress asked what I do. I said I work in IT She said she could tell, because every IT worker that comes in looks "tired and stressed out" Yeah #programming

You may ask, what happened to version 2.0.2? That came out yesterday and was release 2.0.1 recompiled for Golden Gate. But a merge conflict overwrote double-click handling, so I fixed that quickly. Happy Corking! #swift #swiftUI #macOS #opensource #buildinpublic #macdev #homebrew #CorkApp

Cork firmly stands the only major GUI for Homebrew that is not vibe coded slop It has one of the strongest no AI policies: corkmac.app/our-ai-stance/ You won’t find emojis used as icons here 😉 If you appreciate real software: corkmac.app #homebrew #CorkApp #macdev #fuckai #noai #antiai
