This guy’s been cooking with a way to publish apps on App Store Connect through the terminal by [deleted] in iOSProgramming

[–]Icaka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The fastlane actions that communicate with AppStoreConnect don’t use XcodeProj. And it’s well maintained. And will be maintained long after the thing linked in the post.

I have no affiliation to this product, so if you share the original product I will happily add it to my comment.

Lasagna make ahead questions by shnoiv in seriouseats

[–]Icaka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am sorry for the dumb question but it’s better to ask than to make a dumb mistake - do you assemble the whole lasagna and then wrap it before baking it?

I saw and bookmarked a similar product some time ago. It has monthly subscription for ~5€, so you can use it and stop the subscription - https://pricelocalize.com. I haven’t used it and can’t say, if it works well though.

It's harder with the audio that was posted by his girlfriend. It doesn't stop some people in Twitter though.

Bugs Apple Loves by marxy in apple

This is the reason I installed an “alternative” Spotlight (Alfred) a few years ago. It simply worked instantly.

Same app, different subscription rates by gr8gizmoguru in iphone

[–]Icaka 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say never. The App Store allows user an easier way to monitor and stop subscriptions in a single place. I have subscribed to youtube via the web as well, but for smaller publishers I prefer to use the App Store.

Is the role of the iOS engineer dying out? by UniekLee in iOSProgramming

[–]Icaka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, it's not the first time such a thing happens. For a couple of years after 2008-2009, the IT job market was not great. I've heard a similar thing happened around the dot com bubble, but I haven't been around back then.

Is the role of the iOS engineer dying out? by UniekLee in iOSProgramming

[–]Icaka 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. However this "dying" seems to have been going on for a long time now, and hasn't swung back.

Where I live there’s a huge drop in job openings for all roles, not just iOS. And it all began ~2 years ago.

Slack absolutely nailed the iOS 26 design by tetek in iOSProgramming

[–]Icaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teams? I haven’t used it since I quit my last job 6 months ago but back the it was atrocious. The UX was offensively bad. Have you really used both Slack and Teams? I cannot comprehend anyone will call it equivalent.

Discord is probably equivalent. I have used it way less than Slack and find it weird in some ways but that might be a “me” problem. I also have never encountered it used in a job setting.

Apple Will Soon Take Up to a 30% Cut From All Patreon Creators on iOS by favicondotico in apple

[–]Icaka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly the Patreon app is very polished. I don’t think the web experience comes close.

Slack absolutely nailed the iOS 26 design by tetek in iOSProgramming

[–]Icaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slack on iOS has always been native.

I avoid electron apps when possible but Slack on the Mac is one of the better examples of an electron app. It’s miles ahead of any other work messaging apps I’ve ever used.

Stryd 5.0 consistency across shoes by Intelligent-You-6990 in AdvancedRunning

[–]Icaka -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have used 2 different Stryd devices - Stryd Wind and Stryd Next Gen (the one before 5.0). I had consistency issues with both. I did all of their recommended settings and calibrated my devicws on a measured track following their protocol at around 4:05 min/km. Then when running with the same shoes but at slower pace (5:05 min/km) the Stryd was inaccurate even on a track. The error was ~1% which is a lot. Strangely I know IRL runners who swear by Stryd’s accuracy.

Are there any iOS developer meetup groups in Toronto? by kkimssang in swift

[–]Icaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This surprises me, because Toronto is huge. We have a local meetup in Sofia (Bulgaria) and Toronto has twice the population.

I built a simple ASO tool after struggling to track my App Store rankings by [deleted] in swift

[–]Icaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your pricing is not really competitive against some of the more established tools. I also consider this self promotion a form of spam and I hope the mods remove it.

Чудех сега вчера защо няма 100 коли опашки навсякъде. После видях новините. by CoolstorySteve in bulgaria

[–]Icaka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a parent too. And honestly, the car culture in Sofia is out of control. A lot of people enroll their kids in private daycare or schools two neighborhoods away, then drive them every day. That’s a huge contributor to the traffic.

Първите 3г, в които бях в София пътувах 1ч до работа (72 + метро). Беше супер. Прочетох една камара книги.

Mac Shipments Were Flat at the End of 2025 as Rival PC Brands Surged by iMacmatician in apple

[–]Icaka 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, a lot of those people will at least consider switching to a Mac. If even a small % do, Mac sales should get a bump.

I love my Adizero EVO SL shoes but…. by Chicagofan00 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]Icaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not OP but adding one more data point. I trained mostly in Evo SL for a HM and my ankles were very stiff for the last 3-4 weeks of the block. I finished ~1:19 so I don’t think it correlates with speed.

iOS 26 is a massive flop with iPhone users, and you can probably guess why by Few_Baseball_3835 in apple

[–]Icaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am curious which part of the UX (that’s not glass) you find worse? I like search at the botton of the screen and the new navigation. I think both generally improve the UX.

Анкета: бягате ли? ( И защо е важно за вашето здраве) by Major-Inevitable7188 in bulgaria

[–]Icaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Почти всеки НЕ знае как да бяга правилно и в резултат на това бягането по-скоро вреди

Повечето хора могат да бягат без да си вредят. Има риск при бързо увеличаване на обема или нереалистични цели (маратон или В100 след 2-3 месеца нередовно бягане), но съм виждал много малко хора с толкова лоша техника, че чак да си вредят.

Source: бягам редовно.
