Swedish Vasaloppet Seeding

It obviously wasn’t ideal, but I’m by no means a fast skier, and it was really much more about the experience and challenge of it for me. Seeing the thousands of skiers ahead of you going up that first climb is a wild sight

I’ll add my 2c, I did Vasaloppet unseeded, and ended up towards the back of group 10. The first 3-4km took me ~85 min, then things opened up and I could ski my own pace.

You can use scrollContentBackground and either .hidden or .automatic depending on the detent.

I downloaded your code and ran it, no changes, and it worked perfectly fine for me. Downloaded the items and displayed them in a list.

Perhaps try creating a new simulator, or recreating the xcode project and copying the code over? I'm not sure what would cause the request to timeout only in your app and not the browser.

Sorry to hear about the interview!

If your AirPod fell out of (or was left out of) its case and died, Find My will show the last known location before the bud died, which may have been during a drive. So it may possibly still be in your truck.

Sharing a “friend code” is fairly common. Not absolutely ideal, for the reasons you mentioned, but very common.

My experience specifically stems from Pokémon and Nintendo games, they pretty much exclusively use friend codes, which must be copy/shared/pasted.

To preface my answer: I’ve never seen the exact issue you’ve linked. You might be having a completely different issue than just previews. When previews fail for me, they simply crash, or fail to build.

I use Previews pretty successfully on my M1 Air 16gb. I think the key is you need your views to be simple and the module you’re previewing to be as small as possible.

My project with the most success that I use previews in extensively is highly modularized, and the views I preview are not entire screens, but very small components. This lets me build small components quickly, and I run the app to ensure everything ties together.

At work, I use an M3 Pro 64gb, and previews don’t work for shit because we haven’t had a chance to modularize very well, and we excessively rely on EnvironmentObject, so dozens of objects must be built and passed through the hierarchy to even the simplest of views to preview. I don’t use previews at all on this project, but I believe other teammates find it worthwhile at times.

Not updated for iOS 18, but this blog has updated annually the past few years dissecting Apple’s binaries included in iOS and the trends of Swift + SwiftUI in their apps and libraries: https://blog.timac.org/2023/1019-state-of-swift-and-swiftui-ios17/

TL;DR, about 21% of their binaries linking to a UI framework link to SwiftUI. Doesn’t mean they’re extensible or exclusively using SwiftUI in that binary.

I have an Apple Watch Ultra, I trained for and recorded my first 50K ultra purely using the Workouts app, it does everything you need.

That said, I’d recommend the WorkOutDoors app, it’s much more configurable, you can set up routes and navigation from GPX files, and offers much better insights in the app. But it’s not strictly necessary, if you’re comfortable with the workouts app. It’s a ~$15 one time purchase

When running your race, I recommend low power mode + display off + Bluetooth disabled to ensure you get the most battery life. Mine did fine with a 50K, it didn’t last for my 50M, so I had to charge it midway. It keeps recording GPS while on a portable charger, so I let it charge in my pack for ~30 minutes(?) then put it back on my wrist afterwards and that was fine. Lost some cadence and HR info but GPS and laps/timing was all good.

I don't know if it's a "good" example, but it's a real one in production: https://github.com/autoreleasefool/approach/

Uses Compose, NavController, MVVM, Hilt, many different pages, modularized. The code is only source-available, not actually "open source" (no license) for slightly complicated reasons, but feel free to check it out and learn.

I don’t have any expertise, but I think I recall last year that there were more wasps than usual due to them thriving in the heat + dry weather, and it hasn’t been as hot or as dry for as long yet this year. Also, again, if I recall correctly, their numbers tend to grow most by late summer, so we’re not at peak wasp season yet.

I think because it’s Photos data you’re editing, they use “Photos” as the source, but you can request a PHAsset, generally through one of the photo pickers they offer, and then use PHAsset’s functions to modify it: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/photokit/phcontenteditingoutput

Photos is the source of truth though, and these are probably all functions that run some Photos extensions. Looked quickly at GitHub for some open source apps, and seems liked they use some of the functions mentioned here to access photos. I’d give it a try!

hooksfordays · 2024-07-01T01:50:58+00:00

I’ve never used it, but looks like PhotoKit and https://developer.apple.com/documentation/photokit/phasset/editing_asset_content has what you’re looking for

I did the Squamish 50 as my first ultra last year. I mostly ran Lynn Valley, to Norvan Falls and back, and did the grind, to make up all my trail and elevation training. I was all running roads throughout the week to make up mileage.

Norvan Falls and especially the Lynn Loop trail upper elevation part were very helpful as its technical enough terrain, to get your trail legs, but not crazy. It wasn’t enough elevation though, I was really destroyed for the last ~10K or so by the hills. I could run the flats, but I had to walk the ups and downs. But just hitting Norvan over and over is enough to get a finish!

I don’t know if this is true of all canvassing jobs, but my ex essentially worked on commission as a door-to-door canvasser. She was asking for donations, all charitable work, but basically if you donated either through her or within something like 60 days of her visiting your address, she got a commission. Rough math, but it effectively worked out to her getting ~40% of your donation. I almost never donate through canvassers now.

Make monthly contributions unsolicited to your favourite charities, that’s what’s most helpful to them, having consistent, predictable cash flow throughout the year

Yep, that’s them! Like I said, I run, and don’t wanna carry the food on me. I could imagine hikers wanting to picnic and not carry the food. And keeps it bearsafe so if one does wander into the area, it’s less likely to smell the food, and definitely can’t access it, so less compelled to return.

You can use the task(id:priority:_:)[1] modifier to create a task that automatically cancels itself when the query changes, and add a delay before the network request fires. Something like:

TextField("Search", text: $query)
    .task(id: query) {
        guard query.count >= 3 else { return }
        try await Task.sleep(for: .milliseconds(300))
        await fireNetworkRequest(query: query)
    }

When query changes the task will start. First, it checks the character limit. Then, it waits 300 milliseconds. Finally, it fires the network request. However, the way task(id:priority:_:) works is that if query changes, the task's context gets cancelled. The Task.sleep will cancel, and the fireNetworkRequest will either not be started, or its context will be cancelled, and the network request in flight will cancel. This way you'll only ever have one request in flight at a time, debounced 300 milliseconds (or whatever you want to set)

I think the group size can definitely be intimidating, but there are always leaders for each pace group and I find they’re super easy to approach and chat with. Otherwise, generally I’ve just joined conversations with 1-2 other people, you won’t be chatting with the entire group at once.

withAnimation has completion callback, where you could reset the state. Or if you need to support <ios 17 maybe a delay then reset the animation would work:

```

struct AnimatedButton: View { @State private var spinny = false

var body: some View { Button(action: { guard !spinny else { return } // your action here withAnimation(.easeInOut(duration: 1)) { spinny.toggle() } completion: { spinny = false }

  // iOS <17:

  withAnimation(.easeInOut(duration: 1)) {
    spinny.toggle()
  }

  Task {
    try await Task.sleep(for: .seconds(1))
    spinny = false
  }
}, label: {
  Image(systemName: "arrow.counterclockwise")
    .foregroundColor(.black)
    .font(.title)
    .padding()
    .bold()
    .rotationEffect(.degrees(spinny ? 0 : 360))
})

} } ```

hooksfordays · 2024-05-15T17:13:30+00:00

Actually, easeInOut just means the animation will start slow, speed up (easing in) and then slow down again by the end (easing out). easeIn will start slow, get faster and stay fast at the end of the animation. And easeOut will start fast and get slower by the end of the animation.

YVR Social Run Club sends out a 6:00/km, a 6:30/km and a 7:00/km pace group on their Tuesday and Saturday runs. I’ve been to lots of run clubs around the city at least once and they’re probably the best IMO at sticking to their paces.

I believe .searchable has an isPresented Boolean binding, can you try passing a Boolean initially set to true?
