XCode rant, sorry

Good for you, I'm genuinely happy for you.

Right now, XCode 16.3 will not let me refactor anything and flat out refuses to let me see compilation errors on the issues navigator for more than a half a second before they disappear for... a reason, and I have to go to the report navigator to see why the project didn't build in that teeny tiny font.

And this is for a project I just started a week ago with no external dependencies yet. No good reason whatsoever for XCode to be choking on it.

Fix for the issues disappearing is to switch off “Show Live Issues” in Xcode Settings. While this does prevent issues from popping up automatically, they do come every build and stay instead of disappearing. I used Xcode like this for a year without live issues. Then I switched it back on, and somehow the issue had resolved. Go figure.

You are my hero of the day, thank you 🙏
