With a, possibly, un-surprising un-intentional two-parter, we'll let you guess the culprit. John further talks his work on reusable components, also a rather surprising sticking point in some localisation optimisation.

This week the boys share their, very close to the line, pre-Apple event thoughts. John continues his work on reusable components within winning tests, especially in regards to accessibility and dynamic layout. While Scotty continues his investigations into different cross-platform technologies.

With a positive start this week, John talks some excitement with a new blank slate project he's working on and the pros and cons of open sourcing. Scotty talks his week of squashing a couple of little bugs and checking off down the to-do list, and investigates the world of cross-platform apps, especially any alternatives to Electron.

Using his background of language and indie development, John talks the work of localisation, especially indie localisation tools, and the difference between linguistically correct and culturally correct. Scotty shares the extent of his week of primarily client work, with the coordination of some changes for an upcoming 'thing'.

Back with some post-vacation clarity, John shares a bug fix (with the help of the Customer Care Team) with voice control when using a custom UIButton class.

This week the boys read some viewer mail, talk the importance of real human QA people especially in situations where real devices are needed for testing, the nuances of working on larger apps with larger teams, MoneyWell Migration and the synchronisation of attachments and the possible endless cycle of continuously upping the SwfitLint Cyclomatic Complexity level.

With John coming live from the east coast and Italian breakdowns, this week the boys talk ever-changing work conditions, from working remotely to the dynamics of works hours and time zones. John talks his week of heavy meetings and presentations around accessibility and inclusion. Scotty shares his week of being back on getting sync back into MoneyWell and diving into the weeds with the Xcode 13 beta.

This week the boys talk the possible return to a new 'normal' and how companies like Apple might evolve, especially with the future of WWDC. Johns work on dynamically sized cells for low vision users and the evolution of accessibility. Scotty shares his client work hiatus to better focus on MoneyWell.
