MAJOR UPDATE: Today I start a management level #iOS engineering position at @CapitalOne! I am so excited to be working with talented mobile devs on such a huge application! Look at those ratings 🤩🤤

@hoangbody @AustinVershel I miss you too 😭😭😭 The CS Goon Squad was something else

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

A little late due to my trip to India... but I had a blast at #reinvent2022 talking about our native server driven UI features for both iOS and Android!

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

After some time away, attending AWS re:Invent, and a trip to India...

I'm ready to start building again

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

Been using Copilot as a Mint replacement, it’s such a beautifully designed native app 😍

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

@tempelorg Hey thanks for the information! Good find on the scroll view, but that is annoying! I will forward this to the right group!

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

@hoangbody For you, no application needed 😘😘

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

@naangk11 Sadly not ): We have some extra rules since we are a technology company and US based financial institution!

@willjcarpenter All but ONE bad habit 😈😈😈

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

Settled in from moving into a new apartment (kind of haha). Ready to bring the energy of a new environment into continuing my good habits and breaking some bad ones.

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

Using SwiftUI for an “Edit” Page saved so much boilerplate compared to UIKit 😱 and it was actually pretty simple to hook it up to the rest of the UIKit based app

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

Spending my last weekend in my current apartment doing a self hackathon with @willjcarpenter! Let's see what app we can create this weekend 😅

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

Today I removed Xcode from my Dock as I move into more managerial work. Truly a turning point in my career 😭😭

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

@perry_h2 That's awesome! I have a hard cap at 10K 😂 I like to think that I'm better at speed, not endurance, but truthfully I am bad at both.

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

@TommyPrezioso I've been using Bitwarden for awhile now! I love it, and I'm going to upgrade to a family plan this year. Everything is straight forward. My only complaint is that if I add a new password on desktop Chrome, I need to open the iOS app before it appears in it's iOS keychain plugin!

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

This weekend's goal: Create a reset password flow in @joinScout_app! Hopefully should be smooth, as I'm re-using the login flow for it. We shall see how much refactoring I actually end up doing 😂

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

Really feeling like I should start learning #GraphQL, but not exactly sure where to even start 🤔🤔

[AlwaysAwakeBlake @AlwysAwakeBlake]

It’s always a productive Friday when @PUSHA_T drops 😤🔥
