I love what Tauri has done, a lightweight version of Electron, where you author the backend code in Rust.

But while I love Rust, I do not love it for app building, and I wanted to have that HTML-model for programming but available in Swift.

I used assorted AI tools to port Tauri to Swift (it still reuses the big chunks of code from Tauri), but now you can write HTML desktop apps in Swift:

閱讀彼得·阿克羅伊德的《革故鼎新:帝國斜陽與戰後世界》(《英格蘭六部曲》系列第六部)時,覺得把川普稱為我們這個時代的張伯倫,是對張伯倫的羞辱。

畢竟張伯倫雖然推行綏靖政策,但他在德國吞併捷克後,就知道綏靖政策已經失敗了,沒有任何小國能夠滿足希特勒的野心,他隨即徵召20萬人進行為期六個月的軍事訓練,還承諾支持波蘭獨立(雖然最後也是看著波蘭被吞併)。

反觀川普政府到現在還覺得把頓巴斯地區割讓給俄國就能讓普京滿意。

26 years ago, on December 28 1999, we migrated the main source code from self-hosted to Sourceforge.

It was the new hot thing. Imagine the idea of a dedicated service devoted to nothing but hosting code!

We then kept the code there for ten years (on CVS). A period when the distributed version control systems really exploded.

Report: Israeli President Isaac Herzog is scheduled to visit Australia in January 2026.

Australian Friends of Palestine have written to the Australian Federal Police & the Attorney-General:

"A leader accused of inciting genocide should not be welcomed into this country, but if he steps foot in Australia, Isaac Herzog must be investigated under Australian and international law."

The city of Minneapolis in the United States announced in December 2025 the cancellation of funding for the contract with Zencity, a company specialized in surveillance and social analytics technology, following a community pressure campaign that lasted about a year.

The company, whose technologies were developed from the Israeli military intelligence unit 8200, drew widespread criticism due to its links to war crimes in Gaza and concerns over the potential use of its technologies domestically to monitor Black communities in the United States.

The campaign was led by local groups such as Free Palestine Coalition and Jewish Voice for Peace Twin Cities, organizing protests, awareness workshops, and collecting thousands of signatures to halt the contract. On December 16, 2025, the city council decided to amend the budget to cancel the funding, saving approximately $112,500, marking a precedent in the United States for rejecting dealings with companies with military roots involved in war crimes.

방금까지 화장실에 갇혀있었음
문 잠구지도 않았는데 안에서 못 열어가지고
가족들 와가지고 한창 실랑이 하다가
결국 문고리 잘라서 겨우 탈출함

앞으로 화장실 갈 때 무조건 핸드폰 들고 가야겠다...

Some good experience coding Swift apps with modern LLMs.

What disappoints me is the performance of local LLMs. Considering the memory prices, I think local LLMs might remain a dream that never comes true.

I am not sure how Apple will handle this with Apple Intelligence. They should have kept the default memory at 8GB. 😭
