This is fantastic!

100 Days of SwiftUI – Update
The very first part of the course is usually done in a linear fashion using the website. However, I took there first part of the course on my iPad app which handles it a little differently.
That being said, there will be a jump from Day 10 to Day 16.
You are not imagining things and I am not really skipping around.
Onward and upward…and possibly backwards, at times.
Europe’s Extortion of Apple 2016 to 2020
I’ve written on this subject in the past so I won’t go on about it.

The original context of this post is here.
The European Union decided back in 2016 that Apple wasn’t paying Ireland enough in taxes even though Ireland clearly said they were. Apple initially lost the ruling and has been paying the taxes into an escrow account.
Today, it was announced that they won their appeal.
I’m so happy that someone else recognized that the EU’s ecomomy shouldn’t rest of the shoulders of everyone else, including the companies of the United States. The very companies that invented most of your creature comforts. Yes. I went there.
It would be so cool if everyone else turned around and sued the EU for being total toolbags.
100 Days of SwiftUI – Day 10 – Optionals
Learning a ton on this one. Optionals never really made much sense to me but I have to admit, Paul is great at explaining the concepts.
100 Days of SwiftUI – Day 9 – Protocols
Not gonna lie…
This one kinda lost me. I’m sure this will come in handy when I am wondering why something isn’t quite working.
100 Days of SwiftUI – Day 8 – Classes
Classes are another fascination for me.
New things:
1. Final Class
2. Copying Object
3. Deinitializers
100 Days of SwiftUI – Day 7 – Structs
Ok. This one took a couple of days to get to but I am finally through it.
This is what attracted me to OOP (object oriented programming) in the first place. Structs are objects.
I’ve always struggled with initializers and after this section, I finally feel like I understand them a bit better.
100 Days of SwiftUI – Update
Yes. Now I have (3) days worth of material to get through to be up to date. I am part way through Structs.
Should be able to do this today.
