Swift itself picked up my blog post. I am in awe 🤩

[Swift Language @SwiftLang]

When the lights flash, it's a win! @_ryantoken starts the week off with a great article on serverless Swift -- connecting his smart light bulbs to a backend running in AWS Lambda: https://t.co/zFgxXcgtFC

Meet YouHQ - a reference guide for life's important details

For years my "system" for tracking life admin was a single, increasingly unhinged Apple Note

YouHQ solves that. Keep track of info about your home, vehicles, finances, media, and career, all in one place

Check it out!

It took 10 days, but app review finally reviewed & approved YouHQ for Mac! Release day tomorrow 😤

[Ryan Token @_ryantoken]

4+ days later, the YouHQ macOS app has still not even entered review!

The iOS and visionOS apps were both reviewed and approved days ago. I did not think macOS would be the one holding me back 😭

After 3 months of painstaking polish & bug fixes*, YouHQ has officially been submitted to App Review 👀

* I mostly just got very busy and was dreading doing the App Store screenshots

🚨 New app alert!

YouHQ: Your life, organized.

Where's all my money? What paint color did I use in the bedroom? When's my next oil change?

I kept this stuff in a messy Apple Note for years and struggled to maintain it. So I built a native app to fix that.

Join the beta 👇

@pratikbodkhe Build times are flying these days tbh

With #WWDC26 coming up soon, I'm clearing the decks for the apps I work on in my spare time.

Lots of under-the-hood, structural updates for CatchUp, Hot Local Food, and Outrank. Modern SwiftUI, Swift Concurrency, SwiftData/Core Data, and more

Feels great! Check em out.

Today is a hard day. I shared this note with the @linear team today: We’ve made the difficult decision to increase our workforce. This is not a cost-cutting exercise or a reflection of anyone’s performance. We’re simply reimagining every role for the agentic AI era. We’re hiring. We’re sorry about that.

[Ryan Token @_ryantoken]

The new @atreyuofficial album goes extremely hard. I'm hooked

OpenClaw: Possibly useless. Still extremely fun. Why?

A fun question to think through, so I wrote up my thoughts on it 👇

I ported Mac OS X to run natively on the Nintendo Wii - an idea I had over 10 years ago that I finally pursued last year.

Here’s how I pulled it off:
