@Logecamps I'm trying to get a refund for a booking in Breckenridge from almost a month ago (that was rebooked - so I was charged double). They don't answer or return calls. Please help!

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@jckarter @CoreSerena @NathanBLawrence Autofill? What do you want to fill in? I have a Services item that fills in a sequence of numbers into a multicursor selection. Is that what you want?

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@EthanLipnik @bzamayo Definitely worth a bug report so we can figure out why.

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@EthanLipnik @bzamayo In a type conforming to Codable (or just Encodable), typing "encode" should give you the stuff. (Unless you've already implemented it!)

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@EthanLipnik @bzamayo It does!

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@edwardsanchez @christian_beer You can't blame me for asking! 😝

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@christian_beer @edwardsanchez It would be awesome if you could file a bug for this. A simple screen shot isn't enough to investigate what's going on, but we can address getting more info through the feedback process. Thanks!

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@inamiy Yeah. We enhanced the parsing rules (in SE-0354) so that would continue to work, but it was too late for updating it in the editor.

@dish_answers I'm trying to cancel my service after ~25 years. Your phone support is terrible, web chat is broken. I'd like an email address for support.

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@vatsal_manot But "DemoDocument" being colored on that property declaration is a weird. I'm surprised that it's wrong in both 12.5 and 13. "document" is the declaration, and "DemoDocument" is a type reference. Worth another FB!

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@vatsal_manot Xcode 12.5 was broken in this case. The struct and extension names should both have been colored. Fixed in 13.

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@vatsal_manot These are definitely bugs, and worth specific reports: https://t.co/LNfUAC0LNq It's actually more useful to separate the Coloring and Jump To bugs into two reports. (You don't have to, but it makes them easier to track. And they're almost certainly have different causes.)

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@vatsal_manot Preferences for coloring is really subjective. We don't give infinite options, and for some, we give too many. In this case, coloring declarations sounds like something you don't want (and we don't let you turn it off).

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@vatsal_manot In both those cases, it's the "Type Declarations" that are colored differently than the references. That matches what you showed for your prefs.

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@NathanBLawrence BTW, I worked on that version. I started at Apple the year before MacOS X first shipped. But what should I work on when I grow up???

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@LouisDhauwe @NathanBLawrence What @LouisDhauwe said. Welcome!

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@nexton9news Love the show! Can you do an episode focusing on the construction at DIA? Didn’t know the info you reported tonight. Fascinating.

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@AltitudeTV I don’t want a contract w/Dish, Comcast, or DirectTV. Give me a way to stream without that!

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@Honeywell_Home Couldn't do it yesterday, but I can today. Where do we start?

[Dave Ewing @DaveEwing]

@Honeywell_Home I'm in a new home, and need to get my thermostat off the old owner's account. Phone support is full. Your web connect page is broken (<https://t.co/7EdB2g6rPR>). Not the best first experience.
