サーバーサイドしか書いてこなかった人にSwiftは過小評価されてる。
サーバーサイドではOOPは意識されてもPOP（protocol oriented programming）が語られることはほとんどない。

Hay una propuesta de Swift que me parece especialmente útil para solucionar el problema de la disponibilidad de librerías del sistema.
Con identificador SE-0554, ésta plantea añadir compilación condicional según el deployment target mínimo del módulo:
#if deploymentTargetAtLeast(macOS 15, iOS 18, *)
// Implementación moderna
#else
// Implementación para versiones anteriores
#endif
Con if #available podemos elegir qué ejecutar según la versión del sistema. Esta propuesta permitiría elegir también qué imports, typealiases, conformidades o propiedades almacenadas incluir al compilar.
Por ejemplo, utilizar Mutex cuando la versión mínima lo permita y mantener otra implementación para versiones anteriores. Todo aprovechando información que el compilador ya conoce, sin tener que sincronizar flags propios con el deployment target.
Está en revisión hasta el 12 de octubre. Me gustan estas propuestas que resuelven un problema concreto del día a día 🙌

Swift may finally get a compile-time answer to a question that Apple-platform projects ask constantly: what is the minimum OS version this build actually targets?
SE-0554 proposes deployment-target conditional compilation.
That is different from `#available`. Availability checks answer a runtime question: can this API be used on the OS where the program is currently running? The proposed `#if deploymentTarget(...)` answers a build-time question: is the configured minimum deployment target at least this version?
That distinction can matter when compatibility code should disappear entirely once a project drops support for an older OS. Instead of keeping both paths compiled and selecting at runtime, the old path could be excluded from builds whose deployment target no longer needs it.
The proposal is currently under review through October 12, so this is not accepted Swift behavior yet. Prototype toolchains are available for testing.

#Apple just signaled a meaningful change to macOS security: Full Disk Access is going to get additional controls.
Today, Full Disk Access largely bypasses the normal privacy protections because some software, especially backup tools, genuinely needs broad filesystem access. Apple says that some apps are using it in ways that can expose files, mail, messages and browsing history without users fully understanding the scope.
The interesting developer question is what happens next. Apple has not announced the exact API or UX yet, only that granting this access will require “very explicit user action.”
That matters beyond one permission dialog. As Mac apps become capable of doing more work autonomously, broad permissions become much more powerful. The permission model has to express not only what an app can technically access, but whether the user really intended to give it that much authority.

Same here! @thsottiaux fix it plz!
My usage went from 0% with 5 days left for weekly, and now it says 1% with 19hrs left for weekly reset . Is anyone else experiencing this ? This is the 500$ plan btw

Introducing LoopCD our latest research at 🍎 Apple MLR.
Heard the rumors that frontier models like GPT-6 Astra and Gemini 4 use Looped Transformers? We present a new inference-time method that makes pre-trained looped models better for (almost) free!
AIME 2024 (Ouro-2.6B): 61.9 → 73.3
HumanEval (Huginn): 22.6 → 31.7
No training. No extra model.
Read our paper for more details: arxiv.org/abs/2610.02185
Looped Transformers' earlier states already hold a guidance signal. But standard decoding ignores it.
We use it via LoopCD.
🎯 Full depth: AIME24 pass@1 61.88% → 73.33% (Ouro-2.6B-Thinking)
⚡ Half the loop depth: 7-task mean matches full depth, up to 48.2% fewer forward FLOPs

I’m building a software engine, and one of its fun features is an interactive iPhone Duo virtual device, with folding, rotation, and live screen content. Built from scratch with RealityKit, NOT using Apple’s Simulator. Still a work in progress! 👀👇 #iPhoneDuo #iOSDev #Swift

苹果在 AI 领域憋了个真·大招。很多人以为苹果只在端侧修修补补，其实他们刚发了一篇直击目前 AI Agent 致命软肋的重磅论文（arXiv:2609.32391）。
这篇被严重低估的论文到底讲了什么？帮你划 4 个炸裂重点：
1. 直戳痛点：现在的 AI Agent 都有“严重健忘症”
现在的 AI 助手基本上是单次会话的“短命鬼”。现实中一个真正好用的个人助理，需要跨几天、几星期记住你的习惯、定时整理记忆（Memory Consolidation）、跑后台 Cron 任务。目前业界的 Benchmark 几乎测不出这种能力。
2. 黑科技“时钟”：把 1 个月的真实任务压缩到几个小时跑完
苹果搞出了一个叫 SCLATE 的底座，最绝的是它的「混合模拟时钟」。AI 在操作思考时走真实物理时间；一旦进入等待、跨天或休眠，时间直接“快进跳过”。原本需要真实跑一个月的复杂长周期测试，几个小时就能无损跑完。
3. 打脸行业共识：外挂记忆库不一定比自带记忆强
苹果横评了 Claude Code、Hermes、Codex 等主流架构以及 Mem0 等主流外挂记忆组件，得出一个反常识结论：强行加装外部记忆库，经常还不如系统原生记忆。模型和记忆系统必须深度绑定、联合微调，否则纯粹是负优化。
4. 后训练逆天提效：4B 小模型暴打大任务
通过这套系统对 Qwen3.5-4B 做了长程后训练后，模型不仅学会了怎么写高质量记忆，SWE-bench Verified 通过率直接暴涨 16.7 个百分点，读代码行数甚至直接骤降 6.8 倍。
真正的下一代 Siri / Apple Intelligence 显然不是简单的聊天框，而是在设备后台默默长线运行、懂你习惯的持续学习代理。
苹果的底层基建已经搭完了。你觉得未来个人 AI 是拼大模型参数，还是拼这种“跨天跨周的长程记忆力”？

Decision models like Jev are all the rage - they are super fast, dirt cheap, and - best of all - deterministic.
What if... you could use Jev (and other System One models) using Apple Foundation Models framework?

Swift already knows the minimum OS version from the target triple. SE-0554 proposes exposing it to #if, so libraries can use that information directly instead of maintaining custom -D flags and build scripts that must stay in sync with the deployment target.
SE-0554 is open for review through October 12:

Dario 发言时在场各位的表情管理，一个比一个精彩
笑死我 🤣
🚨 NOW: Anthropic chief DARIO just walked up and said President Trump helped put his Super Intelligence worries at ease
"If we do this right, we work with the President and everyone here, we can win safely!"
Imagine that, all it took was DONALD J. TRUMP getting involved and the tables are turning!
No more SI dooming, no more surrendering to China.
America will remain number one BOTH for national and economic security, as long as Trump is president 👏🏻

My Swift Evolution proposal, SE-0554, is now in review through October 12. It adds `#if deploymentTargetAtLeast(...)` so libraries can choose declarations or stored types based on their minimum deployment target.
