This week, because of this business trip to Las Vegas, I’m taking a “mild” break from my creative hobby. No more time tracking, no urge to look for the next opportunity to write and share. I am just putting myself in a different mood for this business trip to be successful and valuable. 😌

I’m a subscriber of Inoreader, but I read the feeds using Reeder 90% of the time. I only wish that Reeder could update the engagement stats on Inoreader. Is that even possible from a RSS client perspective? I highly doubt it. You’ve got an opinion on this subject? Let me know.

Apple’s use of Swift and SwiftUI in iOS 17 by Timac:
Objective-C is still at the core of iOS and is used directly or indirectly by most apps
The adoption of Swift and SwiftUI continues to grow rapidly
The share of Objective-C, C and C++ continues to decrease
It’s a must-read for the curious around here.

Some Must-Needed Changes to My (Too Many) About Pages
Today, I’m removing my digital garden content. The most valuable parts were moved to my About Page, and the rest has been dropped. Both of these pages are created and maintained in Craft. I like the idea of Digital Gardens, but it’s not practical for me to maintain on top of this blog … read more

Getting mentally ready for a business trip to Las Vegas next week. I’ll try to put my 15 Pro Max to the test with night photography🌃. It’s been three years since the last travel, thanks to COVID. Can’t wait to see this city where everything happening in Las Vegas stays there. It better be1.

My 2018 iPad Pro is starting to show its age. iPadOS 17 might be the last enjoyable version on this device. Stage Manager is disabled. No external monitors support. Great external monitor with my Mac mini, though. 🤔

There is a Midjourney plugin for Raycast… but man this is hard to configure and make it working. Moving on for now.

Remember when it was simple to buy an iPad? Now it is getting harder to buy an Apple Pencil, too.

If Apple is indeed close to releasing the third-generation Apple Pencil with a magnetic pencil tip, I can see that coming with some new trick, enabled with iPadOS 17.1, probably to be launched before October 21st1. What else could this new pencil do? Include an electronic erasure on the other end of the pencil? 👀

The date was apparently leaked by a French government agency about the reduction of radiation from the iPhone 12, which Apple would indeed fix no later than October 21st. ↩︎

Who’s reading my weekly creative summary? How could I improve it?

Apparently, Apple is working on a way to upgrade iOS on iPhone still in their box at the Apple Store. This would prevent issues where there is a bug in the final release of iOS that could hinder the upgrade experience of new buyers. I’m still wondering how the GM of iOS is installed at the factory and how long it takes to be installed. Is the USB-C port helping make the operation faster? 🤔
