Swift CI and Source Compatibility

patmcgLeave a comment

Great idea: the Swift programming language has a continuous integration system constantly building various versions of Swift against various Mac and Linux platforms. Now that’s good modern software process, and super cool that its publicly visible.

Even better, this continuous integration is continually building third-party projects using the latest versions of Swift to make sure everything is a-okay. This is the Swift Source Compatibility Suite.

And best of all, that page has instructions for adding your own project to the list. That way you can make sure Swift and your project continue to get along fine. 🤗 That’s a win-win.

LetGrow – “Always helping our kids isn’t always helping them”

As a parent, I love Let Grow. They are saying that we need to do less for our kids. Step back, trust your kids, and let them figure some stuff out on their own. They will gain skills, true confidence, and inner strength. 💪🏻

Doing a little less for our kids is not negligent or lazy. It is a vote of confidence in them

👉 Let Grow

The winners in business, love, and life are comfortable with a bit of risk, and able to deal with disappointment (even the lack of a trophy). They listen, argue, work things out. They are open to change. They pivot.
