Note that’s a “pretty” ellipsis at the end – one you make with Option-;.

I really just have no words for that.

Coding in Swift would be much easier if the damned IDE (the only one that you can use for it today) would actually work when editing Swift code.

As it stands, however, Xcode regularly tries to compile while you’re halfway through writing a symbol and then leaves the error up there for minutes at a time until you manually tell it to re-build the file. Then if you do something unexpected like actually delete something and then type something new then the syntax highlighting (and general language-based parsing) get boned all to hell and give you nonsense like this:

The certificate is invalid because either they or Akamai are experimenting with self-signed certs on the CDN. To fix it, open https://devimages.apple.com in Safari and choose to trust the certificate.

What gets me the most though? “Would you like to connect to the server anyway?” has one choice: “OK” — which then cancels instead.

This Wouldn’t Have Happened Under Steve (Except Yes, It Would).
