I built an app using metal compute shaders to capture 4d gaussian splat video for the iphone. Took about two months to get it running in realtime with good compression and quantisation.

Apple have now rejected it 5 times (it takes them a week to reply each time, so that's 5 weeks) for nit picking things, inconsistently each time.

I know the app store can be like this, but it's been enough to push me back to being an android developer.

I love my macbook, but i might try rocking a graphene os phone.

Feature request:

Add an AI query tool - you could do it on-device with something like functionary ggml and llama cpp with a few functions:

getSchemaForTables(...) getTableStats() runQuery('...')

Then you could do a query like:

"show me all customers who regularly post between midnight and 1am"

I worked part time on this project for about 2 years, and full time with a small team for the last year. It's all typescript / webgl / node.js / preact, and lots of microservices.

This is fantastic news, awesome work André!

Cargo bikes! You can easily take one or two children on a cargo bike (yuba for example).

They are though. What if the API you're relying on doesn't have types and it returns something you didn't expect.

I think this is the biggest gotcha for developers who are using typescript. Typescript doesn't do runtime type checks, so if you're calling out to something third party that isn't written in typescript, you can't trust it'll return what you think it returns.
