Seriously, everybody on Holly’s team is rad.

Ok. Time for an exit strategy. You can find me on Mastodon at @[email protected]

I can't believe I'm going to say this but Dan Levy's new Big Brunch show is all the things that are deeply wonderful about early seasons of Great British Bake Off, but better. Gayer. More socially conscious. And absolutely zero Paul Hollywood.

The team that I manage at Apple, Darwin Evolution, is hiring! If the question "what is an operating system?" interests you, we are doing some exciting work in that space. Come help us build the core of Apple's products. https://t.co/Ph1KPewt6e

Towards the next generation of XNU memory safety: kalloc_type https://t.co/cJepkb3tzq

I’m so happy that the team finally gets to share the details of this huge effort. And I’m so proud I had the chance to work on it in the past couple of years. :)

Something I've been thinking about: the minute you become a full time tool-builder, you stop building for yourself unless you're building for other full-time tool builders.

Empathy for users who are not you is critical for good developer experience.

Rockfish en papillote with fennel and zucchini. What a forgiving cooking technique! Easy to clean up and a good way to get vegetables too.

[Devin Coughlin (@[email protected]) @coughlin]

(Don’t do this with candy corn.)

[Devin Coughlin (@[email protected]) @coughlin]

You can microwave corn on the the cob. Gasp! No, really it’s fine. Three to four minutes on high for 1 - 2 ears. Leave the husk on to let it steam then shuck afterwards by cutting off the bottom and squeezing from the top.

The Apple C++ team has a *very* good proposal. Please ship it!

@mrawdon @InGreaterBoston One of the peak experiences of my life was brunch on a warm spring Saturday in Brookline. I don’t know why, but a decade and a half later the memory has still stuck with me.

[Devin Coughlin (@[email protected]) @coughlin]

@benofben @Poczatek Yes, pretty sure that was me. I’ve been buying it for friends and family ever since I learned about it from @barrelshifter and it came back into print.

If you like low level compiler/linker/runtime optimizations you should check out Ahmed’s talk this year. Some cool stuff that was only possible due to lots of teams working together, and a he does a great job explaining it: https://t.co/Tguy8tH6Nj

I’m so proud of the Secure Enclave team’s work on iOS 16. The Secure Enclave is the foundation for a bunch of new security features announced this year and has major improvements under the hood this year. Including this bit of Swift news! https://t.co/OB0F9nrD41

In the years since then I’ve had the opportunity to present multiple sessions myself and help colleagues prepare many more — something my 2004 self never would have imagined!

[Devin Coughlin (@[email protected]) @coughlin]

My first WWDC was 2004. I drove out from Boulder and got a new car radio with a USB iPod adapter for the trip — which which was stolen from my car just a month ago while parked across the street from Apple Park. (Seriously, who steals an 18-year-old radio!)

[Devin Coughlin (@[email protected]) @coughlin]

I sat out WWDC while in grad school, but have attended as an Apple employee since 2015, when I got to see my work in a teeny, tiny font on the giant screen above Craig Federighi’s head.
