Working on Pestle and working at NextThere
This is probably overkill but I love it so much:

Every time I push to Github, an action runs which:

1. Connects to my tailnet
2. SSHes into my Mac mini
3. Runs xcodebuild and runs all my tests
4. Outputs the success/failure to Github

Diving into a very old commit

I recently redid a lot of Pestle's scaling code, now I want to at least refresh myself on the converting code (I wrote it over 3 years ago)

I'm running an A/B test right now of a rather subtle paywall copy tweak, and the results are very surprising.

This is off the back of a previous paywall experiment which increased conversions by 39%

Which represents a 119% improvement in 30 days... if I've done that maths right

One of those lovely days

I put this code snippet in all of my projects.

Sorting an array with a KeyPath is a handy way to write concise code to sort arrays, so instead of a.sorted(by: {a.count < b.count}), you can write a.sorted(by: \.count)
