The official #Swift VSCode plugin is now available in OpenVSX, and that means that it might be time for me to try VSCodium again… 🤞

"twelve post-war tales" – kollege p. hat mir wieder einen #kurzgeschichten-band von graham #swift empfohlen und geliehen, und es waren wieder 12 ganze welten auf wenigen seiten. beeindruckend. #2026reads

There sure is a lot of #Swift on Server talk in this Apple SOTU… ✅

Full circle happening to my developer career right now, friends!
#Swift now has a disambiguating PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM! (and no, I did not look up how to spell that; it is burned into my mind from #PHP 25 years ago)

Stabilizing efforts for the #Katalyst #Swift-servicing #LINK spacecraft with its ion engine are making progress - now it sounds like the mission could be salvaged after all: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/katalyst-space_over-the-last-48-hours-the-katalyst-team-activity-7488722727298818048-mApL and https://science.nasa.gov/blogs/swift/2026/07/31/efforts-continue-to-stabilize-link-spacecraft-for-nasas-swift-boost/

During commissioning, the #Katalyst team encountered a series of technical issues related to attitude control of the LINK spacecraft to raise the orbit of #Swift: #LINK spacecraft has been in a multi-axis spin, causing a temporary loss of communications and subsequent bus reset.
