Looks like @Square has gone down. Downside of connectedness. Hey @jack you should talk to my boys at @dittolive and avoid this in the future!

We’re so excited that @WSJ featured Ditto in their recent article on how companies like @ChickfilA and @AlaskaAir are turning to cloud-optional technology to keep data flowing regardless of connectivity. on.wsj.com/47bGbfR #cloudoptional #omnichannel #digitaltransformation

Holy crap! 1899 was some of the most mind-numbing, thought-provoking sci-fi that I’ve ever seen. Stayed up way later than I should have just to see the ending

1/ It saddens me to hear about the layoffs happening across the tech industry. Many talented people at Twitter, Stripe and more are being let go due to things beyond their control. 😔

2/ While some companies are letting their talent go, Ditto is actively hiring and we are using some very cool tech, like Rust, CRDTs, P2P and mesh networks in our multiplatform SDKs. 😎

Love that @github auto-linkifies CVE numbers
There's a method to my madness 😎
Xcode 14.1 now includes a direct download link for the .xip file! 🎉 This is normal for pre-releases, but now it's available for a GA release.
