Since I am still technically eligible to participate in the Swift Student Challenge I decided to give it a shot: SwiftAR, a declarative framework for creating AR scenes.

14 + 2 hours for Let’s continue trying what obviously isn’t working.
And I thought my Zoom meetings were unproductive.

I was excited for a shipping update on our new M1 MacBook Air, but there were just payment processing troubles 😩

To contradict current news, there just was the first very light snowfall of the year. Delightful!

There are a lot of sports that are less enjoyable without crowds cheering but Darts might be the one that is hurt the most.

Let’s hope the atmosphere can return next year.

What a crazy year!

We wish anyone Merry Christmas 🎄 🥂
Stay safe and healthy.

Finished my last day of work for the day. Now looking forward to relax during lockdown 2.0.

It’s the hope that kills you.

Oh no, I broke my micro.blog!

Sometimes, even 2-trillion company does something right. And, whatever their motives, it’s okay to acknowledge that.
New App Store commissions are great for those who benefit from it, but it won’t - and shouldn’t - be enough to face off the antitrust cases.

I enjoy going by train. In fact we don’t even own a car anymore. But thinking about all the creative ways people wear their masks alone makes me stay at home as much as possible.

In memory of better times.

I am really enjoying Microblogvember so far.

Posting each day is a nice challenge.

The good thing about rainy Sundays is that you don’t feel bad for spending the day on the couch.

Wandering down along closed restaurants on bars on a Saturday night still feels spooky. Emptiness where there should be joy and life.

Let’s at least hope that the partial lockdown helps!

Pizza time!

Backups are in place, I guess it’s Big Sur time!

I’ve been wearing my Apple Watch to sleep for a couple of weeks now but honestly I don’t know why. The alarm is nice and subtle, but that’s the opposite of what I usually need in the morning. And the sleep data feels kinda… pointless.

I’d say I just opened my first public GitHub issue. That was a long time coming.

The M1 Macs look like nice improvements. I am curious for some real-life experiences in the coming weeks.

Following the great news about Covid vaccines the first suggestions about who should receive it first were published: Doctors, nurses and the elderly.

Makes sense, but let’s see what will happen when the vaccine actually becomes available.

Time to dig into The Mandalorian Season 2 and our all favorite force baby.
