I’ve been writing iOS software since 2014 when I joined Cabulous (which later rebranded to Flywheel) as their first in house iOS developer. I took this job without really knowing what I was doing. I had done a little bit of work with Objective-C in college (mostly just reading the Hillegass book), but that was before iOS had been released and before people were writing apps.

Just a little note. Went up to Thompson’s Point in Portland ME last night for a super great concert by my favorite band, Dispatch. Their set was great and they even mentioned that it might be the most jammy set they’ve ever played. I loved it.

In the end, it came down to complexity and control. Over the years, Wordpress has grown from a simple PHP blogging platform to a very complicated Content management system....
I’m back to being busy again. I feel like the pandemic lull is over and work is finally picking back up. I’m getting serious about coaching again with Salve Regina Cheer, and I’m getting back into teaching acro. I will have some announcements on that later. I’m sewing some packs. Well I sewed one last weekend and I’m trying to get up the courage to do one this weekend as well....
