Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 19/08/2026This is a totally reasonable task management technique, right? Right? RIGHT? 😂 130
Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 01/06/2026Interesting idea for an app, I like it. I'm getting this error when I click on any item in the sidebar, though. Brew doctor reports no issues, and everything is updated. Brew is at the latest version, too. Any ideas on what's wrong? 100
Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 06/01/2026GitLab has been fundamentally broken for *months* now. In addition to the long standing error where it gives a 500 error during 4/5 login attempts, the last few months it has been completely unable to list projects you are a member of or have starred. How does anyone use it? 010

Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 11/08/2025Today in deciphering reminders dictated to Siri. I'm *completely* stumped, which means whatever I had to do is not getting done. 😬 What's extra weird is the capitalisation of "Ocean" 🤔 440
Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 23/07/2025… and you try and tell me Claude isn't as good as a "real developer" when it also completely skips over Swift 6 concurrency warnings, just like real developers do 😂 1332
Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 19/06/2025Hey, at least you don't have an added warning triangle 😂 I got this one this morning. 130
Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 18/04/2025Is there a less useful type of alert than these? If time < 30 mins of it stopping, don’t tell me 😂 170
Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 28/01/2025Does anyone else routinely get 500 errors when logging into GitLab? For *years* now, it takes me 4 or 5 attempts to log in because the first few almost always fail. 130
Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 10/01/2025Pressing send on an email going to more than 40,000 people always makes you pause, but when it's an entirely new sending system that pause turns into a little bead of sweat. 😅 280
Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 08/01/2025I was just rickrolled by generative AI. 😂 I was working on this week’s newsletter and writing Markdown in Cursor, and as I typed an opening bracket it suggested a YouTube link. I couldn’t resist checking what it wanted me to watch and as soon as I clicked, I heard those familiar 80s drums, and … 3110
Dave Verwer @daveverwer.com · 01/01/2025Happy New Year everyone! 🥳 I’ve been lucky enough to spend some time in Switzerland over the last few days and it’s just as beautiful as you might imagine. 1230
