As announced at WWDC20, App Store product pages will feature a new privacy information section to help users understand an app’s privacy practices.

Today we are publishing more details for developers on what will be covered in this new privacy section.

We are committed to ensuring users can choose whether or not they allow an app to track them.

To give developers time to make necessary changes, apps will be required to obtain permission to track users starting early next year.

More information, including an update to the App Store Review Guidelines, will follow this fall.

Later this year, you’ll be able to acquire, retain, and win back subscribers with subscription offer codes: unique, alphanumeric codes that provide free or discounted prices for auto-renewable subscriptions.

Provide your one-time use codes digitally or offline at physical events, alongside products, and more.

Customers on iOS 14 and iPadOS 14 and later can redeem offer codes on the App Store, through a one-time code redemption URL, or within your app if you’ve implemented the presentCodeRedemptionSheet API.

Introducing Swift Cluster Membership August 27, 2020 Konrad Malawski is a member of a team developing foundational server-side Swift libraries at Apple, with focus on distributed systems and concurrency.

It is my pleasure to announce a new open source project for the Swift Server ecosystem, Swift Cluster Membership.

Providing a predictable, reliable answer to this question is what cluster membership protocols do.

For details and rules about legal status transitions refer to SWIM.Status or the following diagram:The way Swift Cluster Membership implements protocols, is by offering “Instances” of them.

Even then, as of Swift 5.2, this part of the proposal has not been implemented, and it would be a source breaking change to do so.

Therefore, the "Pattern Consistency" section of the original proposal has been removed, and replaced with a [ "Disambiguating pattern matches" section ](https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/aecced4919ab297f343dafd7235d392d8b859839/proposals/0155-normalize-enum-case-representation.md), which…

Statements that introduce limited available contexts, such as `if #available(...)` , allow use of newer APIs while still making the code backward-deployable to older versions of the libraries.

A function builder carries complete type information (such as SwiftUI's [ `ViewBuilder` ](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swiftui/viewbuilder)) may need to "erase" type information from a limited availability context using `buildLimitedAvailability` .

Here is a SwiftUI example borrowed from [ Paul Hudson ](https://www.hackingwithswift.com/quick-start/swiftui/how-to-lazy-load-views-using-lazyvstack-and-lazyhstack):Statements that introduce limited availability contexts, such as `if #available…

Hi experts, I’m working on my first swift package that has dependencies on other packages already opensourced on git. The dependancy packages are however not used as it is and had to be tweaked/modified. My question is how should I add these packages to my new package? Is it fine to do a local clone of these, make changes and publish a new package (I’ll certainly cite them)? sorry if this a noob question, I’m still early to swift and not majorly an iOS dev but a Computer Vision developer and I think the package would be useful to other CV/ML application developers out there.

When I was starting working on my app two years ago, my mentor who was very qualified as iOS dev recommended that I use Storyboards since I was junior. So I did and over this entire time I just kept using Storyboards/XIBs, my app was growing in size and screens and views and then the iPad support was added and I was slowly losing my mind due to broken constraints all the time, hours and hours wasted on loading the Interface Builder and just staring at my device thinking and swearing out loud why the same screen in IB looks different.

Social media upstart TikTok on Wednesday filed an emergency injunction to stop a Trump administration order that would ban downloads of the app on Apple's App Store and Google's Play Store.

The Trump administration, citing national security concerns related to the app's Chinese owner, ByteDance, is pushing TikTok to sell its U.S. interests to a domestic company.

If no deal is reached, the app will be removed from U.S. app stores on Sept. 27.

"There is simply no genuine emergency here that would justify the government's precipitous actions," TikTok said in the filing.

Following news of the deal, Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross on Sunday delayed enactment of Trump's executive order by one w…

A short video published in the Apple TV app on Wednesday offers a sneak peek at upcoming Apple TV+ series "Tehran," coming to the streaming service on Sept. 25.

In a two-minute short, show lead Niv Sultan, co-creator and director Daniel Syrkin and executive producer Moshe Zonder give a brief overview of the series.

"Tehran" follows the secret agent as she runs for her life while attempting to complete the job.

"She keeps trying to fulfill her mission in many kinds of ways," Sultan said of her character.

"You start asking yourself, Who's the good guy and who's the bad guy?'"

Apple on Wednesday released the first beta version of its upcoming Schoolwork 2.1 app update with new features that allow for easier discovery of app content.

Schoolwork is Apple's iPad-based app for teachers and students that allows for tracking of assignments and other educational metrics.

Apple released Schoolwork 2, with a focus on distance-based education, in May.

In Schoolwork 2.1, educational app developers can now incorporate a ClassKit Catalog API to declare contexts ahead of time instead of at runtime.

The app has also been updated to support new metadata properties on iPads running iPadOS 14 or later, letting teachers discover activities more easily.

The UK National Health Service is rolling out its coronavirus contact tracing app based on the Exposure Notification framework created by Apple and Google.

As of Wednesday evening, the NHS COVID-19 app should be available to residents of Wales and England on the iOS App Store and the Google Play Store.

Additionally, NHS COVID-19 has other features meant to aid in contact tracing, including the ability to scan QR codes to register visits to locations like restaurants or stores.

NHS officials initially rejected the Apple-Google contact tracing system because it stored data in a decentralized manner.

The UK's app joins a growing list of other digital contact tracing solutions in Europe and bey…

Cherry Jones and Jason Segel join Grace Kaufman in "The Sky is Everywhere," an A24 production set to debut on Apple TV+.

"The Sky is Everywhere" follows American schoolgirl Lennie Walker, who has to deal with her older sister's death.

It was recently reported that Grace Kaufman would play Lennie, with "The Sky is Everywhere" serving as her first starring role in a major studio film.

According to Deadline,Segel will play "Big," Lennie's eccentric uncle, while Jones will play "Gram," Lennie's loving Grandmother.

The script is written by novel author Nelson, with "Madeline's Madeline" director Josephine Decker also attached to direct the piece.

The "iPhone 12" will be announced at an Apple Event on October 13 according to prolific leaker Jon Prosser, aligning with earlier rumors.

Apple is expected to announce the "iPhone 12" lineup at an event sometime in October, and all speculation points to October 13.

He also included that the "iPhone 12 mini" and "iPhone 12 Max" would arrive in stores on October 23.

A follow up tweet noted that the "iPhone 12 Pro" and "iPhone 12 Pro Max" would likely be shown at the event, but not launch until sometime in November.

Apple has shipped the iPhone lineup in two intervals before with the iPhone X arriving a month later than the iPhone 8 in 2017.

The U.S. Department of Justice has unveiled new draft legislation that would reform Section 230, a key protection for technology companies from users posting illicit content.

In June, the DOJ announced a set of reforms that would hold technology companies more legally responsible for the content that their users posted.

The proposed legislation on Wednesday would narrow the criteria that online platforms would need to meet to earn Section 230 liability protections.

It and also requires them to moderate and remove harmful content to be extended Section 230 protections.

Those protections allowed technology platforms and the internet to flourish in their nascent years, but have since come unde…

A company called Echelon Fitness on Tuesday unveiled an exercise bike "in collaboration with Amazon," but Amazon says it wasn't involved and has ceased sales on the product pending modifications.

Echelon Fitness touted the $500 EX-Prime Bike as "Amazon's first-ever connected fitness product" that was developed in partnership with the online retail juggernaut.

On Tuesday evening, however, Amazon denied that it was ever involved with the product or Echelon Fitness.

"This bike is not an Amazon product or related to Amazon Prime," Amazon told Bloomberg.

Amazon does offer fitness-related products and services, including livestream classes and clothing through its AmazonBasics brand.

My thanks to Bitrise for sponsoring Swift by Sundell for the past two weeks, enabling me to keep the site free and open to the entire Swift community.

Bitrise is my favorite continuous integration service, and this time of the year, I’m always reminded of a big reason why that is.

Simply leave it up to Bitrise to keep your CI and build pipeline up to date, so that you can focus on working on your app and delivering new features to your users.

Bitrise takes just a few minutes to setup, it doesn’t require you to fiddle around with any obscure configuration files or build settings — it just works!

Using the above link also directly helps support Swift by Sundell as well.

shared func loadUser(withID id: User .

decode (type: User .

shared func loadUser(withID id: User .

url else { return nil } var request = URLRequest (url: url) Kind .

makeRequest (with: requestData) else { return Fail ( error: InvalidEndpointError (endpoint: endpoint) ).

For example, here’s how we might use that pattern to observe when a “Start” button within an ActivityViewController was tapped:class ActivityViewController: UIViewController { private let activity: Activity ... override func viewDidLoad() { let startButton = UIButton (type: .

start () } ) startButton.

start () } ) let startButton = UIButton (primaryAction: startAction) view.

UISlider let value = slider.

With the above in place, we can now easily create a closure-based UISlider like this:let slider = UISlider { value in ... }Really nice!

This week, let’s take a look at some of those advancements, and how they collectively enhance the overall experience of building views using SwiftUI.

Thanks a lot to the team behind the fantastic iOS development tool Reveal for sponsoring Swift by Sundell this week.

I’ve personally been using Reveal for years, both when working on huge projects, as well as smaller ones, and it’s always been fast, rock solid, and incredibly valuable.

Reveal lets you inspect, debug, and modify your app’s UI while the app keeps running.

Beyond basic view properties — such as frames, colors, fonts, and so on — Reveal also lets you inspect and modify things like Auto Layout constraints, the underlying CALayer instances that an app’s UI is drawn using, and much more.

And, like always, using that link to check out Reveal directly helps support Swift…

This week, let’s take a look at some of those modern tools, and how collection views can be built using them.

CellRegistration < Cell , Product > func makeCellRegistration() -> CellRegistration { CellRegistration { cell, indexPath, product in cell.

Apart from creating data sources and registering cell classes, the other major piece of building a UICollectionView -based UI is defining its layout.

Finally, let’s take a look at how iOS 14 builds upon many of the above concepts to make it possible to build table view-like lists using UICollectionView .

CellRegistration < Cell , Product > func makeCellRegistration() -> CellRegistration { CellRegistration { cell, indexPath, product in var con…

Although some apps perform that kind of navigation through storyboard segues, many also programmatically push new view controllers onto the current navigation stack — for example when the user selects a row within a table view, like this:extension ListViewController : UITableViewDelegate { func tableView( _ tableView: UITableView , didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath ) { let item = items[indexPath.

row ] let detailVC = DetailViewController (item: item) navigationController?.

Plus, if we ever wanted to customize the way our view controllers get presented, then we can now do that by implementing a custom container view controller that overrides that very same show method to perform its cust…

My thanks to indie developer Anders Borum for sponsoring Swift by Sundell last week to promote his fantastic iOS SSH client, Secure ShellFish.

You might know Anders as the creator of the Git app Working Copy, which is one of my favorite iPad apps, and with Secure ShellFish he’s brought another really powerful developer tool to iOS — further making it possible for me and many others to do even more of our work directly on our iPhones and iPads.

Secure ShellFish lets you easily connect to any SSH server, which in turn lets you run commands, and (here’s where things get really interesting) the app also lets you integrate SSH with several iOS system features — from the Files app, to dra…

Fundamentally, there are two Foundation types that are especially important when reading and writing files in Swift — URL and Data .

noPathGiven } let url = URL (fileURLWithPath: path) do { let data = try Data (contentsOf: url) ... } catch { throw Error .

fileNotFound (name: name) } do { let data = try Data (contentsOf: url) let decoder = JSONDecoder () return try decoder.

So, in order to be able to perform the above test, we first need to add a bit of parameter-based dependency injection to enable ContentLoader to load files from any Bundle (while still keeping main as the default):struct ContentLoader { ... func loadBundledContent(fromFileNamed name: String , in bundle: Bundle = .

Thanks a lot to Instabug for sponsoring Swift by Sundell for the past two weeks.

Each Instabug report contains a ton of useful debugging information — such as network logs, reproduction steps, and much more.

I’ve used Instabug myself in several projects, and it’s always been truly great, as it has helped me fix both bugs and crashes so much faster.

But don’t take my word for it — sign up for a completely free trial to try Instabug for yourself.

Using that link also directly helps support Swift by Sundell, and lets you use Instabug for free for three whole months — pretty great!

Although Xcode ships with a quite comprehensive suite of debugging tools — such as the LLDB debugger, the Instruments app, and various view and layout inspectors — sometimes building our own, custom set of debugging utilities can be incredibly useful, especially when it comes to UI development.

As an example, let’s say that we’re working on the following EventView , which uses a view model to determine what data to render:struct EventView: View { @ObservedObject var viewModel: EventViewModel var body: some View { VStack { Image (uiImage: viewModel.

print (value) return self } }Above we’re calling the built-in print function using Swift.print , to let the compiler know that we’re…

This week, let’s take a look at a few of those compiler directives and what sort of situations that each of them might be particularly useful in.

Perhaps the most commonly used Swift compiler directive is the #if command, which enables us to conditionally include or exclude certain code blocks when our program is being compiled.

To learn more about using feature flags, both compile-time and runtime ones, check out “Feature flags in Swift”.

Here we’re using that feature to include a DebugViewController within an app’s tab bar when it’s being built for the iOS simulator:func setupTabBarController( _ controller: UITabBarController ) { var viewControllers = [ UIViewController ]() #i…

You’d never get that close to the various senior Apple folks, and although I have a fondness for the McEnery Center it’s never going to come close to Apple Park.

Most previous WWDC talks aimed to be about 40 minutes so they could keep a fixed structure at the venue, but at WWDC20 I watched many that were under 15 minutes.

I’ve also seen various mentions of reshoots to correct errors in the talks where feasible – this happened rarely previously.

My favorite talks from WWDC20I download the WWDC talks because I tend to rewind a lot while watching to make sure I’ve really understood.

There is always one stand out WWDC talk on testing, and this was it for 2020.

Alongside massive improvements to Swift itself (see What's new in Swift 5.3 for more on that), this is a huge leap forward for SwiftUI – we can now make a much wider range of apps.

You see, navigation views let us display new screens of content by sliding them in from the right edge.

Tip: You can use navigationBarTitle() on any view inside the navigation view; it doesn’t need to be the outermost one.

Like navigationBarTitle() , both of these are modifiers are attached to a view inside your navigation vi…

In this article we’re going to look at how you can build neumorphic designs using SwiftUI, why you might want to, and – most importantly – how we can modify those designs to be more accessible.

Building a neumorphic cardThe simplest starting point is to build a neumorphic card: a rounded rectangle that will contain some information.

We’ve only written a handful of lines of code, but already we have a neumorphic card – I hope you’ll agree SwiftUI makes it surprisingly easy!

Let’s explore this by creating a custom button style, which is how SwiftUI lets us share button configurations in many places.

Shuffling the array is how we're simulating you changing the items, because it forces the list to update its rows.

The one-line fix for slow SwiftUI listsI'm going to show you exactly why this happens in just a moment, but first I want to show you the one-line fix.

We've told SwiftUI that this list has a unique identifier, and that identifier is a new UUID every time.

Without the id() modifier, SwiftUI realizes the list is actually the same one and so it doesn't change it.

Remember, we're effectively telling SwiftUI the old list has gone away and there's a new list now, which means it won't try to move rows around in an animated way.

Make sure you also check out the two talks on indoor maps from WWDC19: What’s New in MapKit and MapKitJS and Adding Indoor Maps to your App and Website.

In this Nuke tutorial, you’ll learn how to integrate Nuke using Swift Package Manager and use it to load remote images, both with and without Combine.

In this Nuke tutorial, you’ll learn how to:Integrate Nuke into your project using the Swift Package Manager.

Nuke has a struct called ImageLoadingOptions , which allows you to change how Nuke presents images, including setting a placeholder image.

Data(contentsOf: imageURL), let image = UIImage(data: imageData) { imageView.image = image }This is the same naive image loading you saw before.

The catch(_:) means that any error from the image publishers will be “caught” and then the failure replaced with the failure image.

The Photos app manages image assets in iOS through a set of APIs known as PhotoKit.

Getting PhotoKit PermissionsAs with many iOS APIs, PhotoKit uses a permissions model.

Understanding AssetsEven though you eventually will be getting images, it’s important to understand that you mostly work with assets in PhotoKit.

Open UIImageView+Extension.swift and replace the code in fetchImageAsset(_:targetSize:contentMode:options:completionHandler:) with:// 1 guard let asset = asset else { completionHandler?

The PhotosCollectionViewController is already set up to do this using the fetch image asset extension that you just worked on.

You start at the highest level of abstraction, source code written in a programming language like Swift or Objective-C. That code is parsed into an abstract syntax tree, ( AST ), which is progressively transformed into lower-level, intermediate representations until it finally becomes executable binary.

What if, instead of lowering source code down for the purpose of execution, we raised source code for the purpose of understanding?

Like everything else in 2020, this year’s WWDC had to be a little different if it was going to happen at all.

Attendees of WWDC 1997 could obtain a collection of CDs with video recordings of sessions — a far cry from the VHS tape for WWDC 1990.

And thanks to this more digestible format, we’re starting to see WWDC clips being shared around, which is new and refreshing.

WWDC 2020 was just another week in this bizarre existence amidst this pandemic.

Trivial PursuitI briefly considered reviving the NSHipster Quiz for WWDC 2020, but it didn’t feel right.

April is the month when apple trees start to bloom up here in the Pacific Northwest.

Like the Fuji and Gala varieties that predominate in this region, most apple cultivars are self-unfruitful — which is to say that they require cross-pollination to produce a good crop consistently.

But even they would typically benefit from cross-pollination.

For many years, the dance language of the bumblebee eluded all those who studied it.

That is until a mathematician named Barbara Shipman made the connection between a bee’s dance language and the six-dimensional geometry of flag manifolds, of all things.

We’re hearing a lot about contact tracing these days, but the technique has been used for decades.

With over a million confirmed cases of COVID-19 worldwide, many regions are well past the point where contact tracing is practical.

$ uuidgen 33F1C4D5-3F1C-4FF0-A05E-A267FAB237CBEvery 24 hours, the device takes the Tracing Key and the day number (0, 1, 2, …) and uses HKDF to derive a 16-byte Daily Tracing Key Temporary Exposure Key .

Apple and Google’s Contact Tracing standard defines a new Contact Detection service.

In the first version of Contact Tracing , all you could learn about a positive match was how long you were exposed (in 5 minute increments) and when contact occurred (with an unsp…

This week on NSHipster, we’re taking a look at Swift Log : a community-driven, open-source standard for logging in Swift.

Adopting SwiftLog in Your Swift ProgramAdding Swift Log to an existing Swift package is a breeze.

Process Info import Logging import Logging Syslog import Logging Slack Logging System .

public struct Git Hub Actions Log Handler : Log Handler { private var output Stream : Text Output Stream internal init ( output Stream : Text Output Stream ) { self .

output Stream = output Stream } … }Then, in the test target, create a type that adopts Text Output Stream and collects logged messages to a stored property for later inspection.

Xcode build configuration files, more commonly known by their xcconfig file extension, allow build settings for your app to be declared and managed without Xcode.

But there’s more to Xcode build configuration files than meets the eye.

But you might use this as a hook for optional development tools like Reveal, which requires the following configuration: # Reveal.xcconfig OTHER_LDFLAGS = $( inherited ) -weak_framework Reveal Server FRAMEWORK_SEARCH_PATHS = $( inherited ) /Applications/Reveal.app/Contents/Shared Support/i OS-LibrariesCreating Build Configuration FilesTo create a build configuration file, select the “File > New File…” menu item ( ⌘ N ), scroll down to the section labeled “Othe…

If you’re also confused, we think the following table can help clear things up:Static Dynamic Type init N/A Instance call As Function @dynamic Callable Member func @dynamic Member LookupSwift has always had static callable types and type members.

RawRepresentable with C Raw Value TypesThe primary motivation for raw value enumerations is to improve interoperability.

( raw Value : cmark_node_type ) { switch raw Value { case CMARK_NODE_DOCUMENT : self = .

RawRepresentable and Associated ValuesIn Swift, an enumeration case can have one or more associated values .

RawRepresentable as Raw Values for Another EnumerationConsider the following from the Raw Representable docs:For any enumeration with a string, integer, or floating-point raw type, the Swift compiler automatically adds Raw Representable conformance.

init ( raw Value : value ) ! }

In Debugging Generics in Swift, Joshua Emmons touches on a tricky area in Swift: the difference between as , as?

When the program is running, the expression 4 in the example has already been assigned the type Int .

As a result, the cast to Double fails because Double and Int are unrelated types (and Swift generally eschews implicit conversions between number types).

The … as Double instructs the compiler to use Double ’s conformance, just like any other implicit or explicit type annotation would.

These two lines are equivalent:let x = 4 as Double let x : Double = 4Ben Cohen:The best way to think of the as keyword is as a way to provide “type context”.

This is a how-to for cleaning up a GPX file by removing unwanted or privacy-sensitive information.

What’s in a GPX file?

We’re gonna use it in one processing step to strip unused namespaces from the GPX file.

ValidationFinally, it’s a good idea to validate the processed GPX file against the official GPX schema:xmlstarlet val --quiet --err --xsd \ http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1/gpx.xsd \ output.gpxHappy processing!

Download the (sanitized) GPX file.

Text fragments are a way for web links to specify a word or phrase a browser should highlight on the destination page.

But text fragments have other uses beyond search engines:Linking to a particular sentence or paragraph of a long document.

Browsers could facilitate this by offering to include a text fragment in the URL when sharing a link to a text selection.

Read the text fragments draft spec for details.

This screenshot demonstrates that document.location.hash is blank because Chromium stripped the text fragment away:JavaScript code running in the destination page can’t see the text fragment.

One important aspect of this is accessibility: ideally, my progress view should be indistinguishable from a system progress view to VoiceOver users.

Accessibility properties in unit testsTo this end, I’d like to write a unit test that fails when it finds a discrepancy between my view’s accessibility settings and those of a standard UIProgressView .

class UIAccessibilityTests : XCTestCase { func testUIProgressViewAccessibility () { let progressView = UIProgressView () progressView .

In a unit test target for an iOS application, only the first assertion ( isAccessibilityElement ) fails, the others pass.

RequirementsTo summarize, the requirements for testing UIKit’s accessibility properties in…

Running the Docker containerFirst, download, install, and run Docker Desktop for Mac.

Older Swift versions To test on older Swift versions, replace swift:latest with a different tag, e.g.

The Docker Hub page for the official Swift image lists all available tags for released Swift versions.

Prerelease Swift versions Recently, the Swift CI team has also begun to publish nightly Swift builds to Docker.

For alternative approaches, check out my 2017 post on how to run Swift packages in Docker.

Swift 5.1 ships with a much better solution: automatic test discovery on non-Apple platforms, such as Linux and Windows.

How to test your SwiftPM package on Linux from macOSCheck out Testing Swift packages on Linux using Docker.

Adopting automatic test discoveryI found two open bugs (SR-11951 and SR-12008) that suggest that the test discovery doesn’t work correctly with certain test case setups.

You should confirm that the automatic test discovery finds all test methods in your package.

Diffing the outputs of swift test --list-tests and swift test --enable-test-discovery --list-tests should not show any differences.

And because Text grabs its font from the environment, all text views in this section of the view tree are rendered with a larger font size.

Here’s the code for the root view:struct RootView : View { var body : some View { RootViewContent () .

sizeCategory ) var sizeCategory var body : some View { VStack ( spacing : 16 ) { Text ( "Root View" ) .

$ isPresentingSheet ) { ChildView () } // …The view that gets presented displays the same data as the root view, without modifying the environment in any way:struct ChildView : View { @Environment (\ .

sizeCategory ) var sizeCategory var body : some View { VStack ( spacing : 16 ) { Text ( "Child View" ) .

We can do this with ForEach :struct PeopleList : View { var people : [ Person ] var body : some View { List { ForEach ( people ) { person in Text ( person .

I usually prefer zip over enumerated for this reason, so let’s use it here:ForEach ( zip ( 1 ... , people )) { number , person in Text ( " \( number ) .

func numbered ( startingAt start : Int = 1 ) -> [( number : Int , element : Element )] { Array ( zip ( start ... , self )) } }This makes call sites quite a bit nicer:ForEach ( people .

id ) { number , person in Text ( " \( number ) .

1 ) } } }And now we can conditionally conform the Numbered struct to Identifiable when its element type is Identifiable :extension Numbered : Identifiable …

Speaking of the Combine framework, I find it interesting that Combine had to introduce a formal concept for top-level decoders in order to implement its decode and encode operators.

In fact, neither the standard library nor Foundation have any formal notion of so-called top-level decoders at all.

Combine then retroactively extends the built-in coders to conform them to the new protocols:extension JSONEncoder : TopLevelEncoder {} extension JSONDecoder : TopLevelDecoder {} extension PropertyListEncoder : TopLevelEncoder {} extension PropertyListDecoder : TopLevelDecoder {}This finally allows Combine to define a generic decode method that is generic over a TopLevelDecoder :extension Publisher …

In March 2018, I wrote a piece titled Making illegal states unrepresentable, in which I argue that the “correct” result type for URLSession completion handlers is Result<(Data, URLResponse), (Error, URLResponse?

In other words:If the network requests succeeds, you receive (Data, URLResponse) — the response body as Data and a URLResponse representing the response metadata.

URLSession.DataTaskPublisherBut the introduction of the Combine framework gave Apple a chance to revisit the result type of a URLSession data task in a Swift-only context.

tuple as a failure type because a publisher’s failure type must conform to the Error protocol and tuples can’t do that (for the same reason, the result …

Some are in German, some in English, but you should be able to find translations for most of them.

No tech book made the list this year (I didn’t finish any).

Daytripper is a masterpiece, and Pascal Jousselin’s Unschlagbar series (Imbattable in French and Invincible in English) is super funny and creative.

Another theme: coming-of-age stories set in the 1990s in post-reunification East Germany (Oder Florida and Als ich mit Hitler Schnapskirschen aß.

Lukas Rietzschel’s Mit der Faust in die Welt schlagen from last year’s list also belongs to this theme.)

A summary of today’s changes to 3.1.3 Other Purchase Methods:Your app must use Apple’s in-app-purchase (IAP) system for all purchases made in the app.

Unless they’re purchases for goods or services that are consumed outside the app, in which case you are prohibited from using IAP.

Unless you only offer free account creation, in which case, you don’t need to use IAP.

Except for accounts that were created outside the app, which can offer paid account upgrades and don’t need to use IAP.

If you’re selling “experiences” between people, you don’t need to use IAP.

Voice Boost 2 achieves the same goal as the original Voice Boost, but with dramatically more sophisticated methods, leading to more consistent results and much better sound quality.

Voice Boost 2 also incorporates a dynamics compressor, but over time, I’ve kept reducing its strength as I’ve found it less necessary.

Voice Boost 2’s limiter performs true-peak detection, rather than simply measuring sample peaks, to avoid this type of clipping and further reduce distortion.

It’s not promoted more in the app or even labeled “Voice Boost 2”.

Voice Boost 2 is in today’s update (2020.1), along with these new features:AirPlay 2: Overcast can now play to HomePods and other AirPlay 2 devices much mor…

In light of today’s rumor that a Pro Mode may be coming that seems to offer benefits in the opposite direction,1 I wanted to re-make the case for a Low Power Mode on macOS — and explain why now is the time.

The sole exception, Low Power Mode on iOS, seems to be a huge hit: by offering a single toggle that chooses a different balance, people are able to greatly extend their battery life when they know they’ll need it.2Mac laptops need Low Power Mode, too.

I’ve been disabling Intel Turbo Boost on my laptops with Turbo Boost Switcher Pro most of the time since 2015.

When Turbo Boost is enabled, the fans annoyingly spin up every time the system is under a heavy sustained load.
