I’m thrilled to announce SwiftMCP, a Swift macro-based framework that elegantly exposes your Swift functions as powerful Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools for AI assistants.

I’ve started doing occasional live streams, and when presenting to a worldwide audience, you don’t want your secrets visible on YouTube.

This is the shape how I want my software development business to achieve, given a long enough time horizon.
Generally people tend to greatly overestimate what kind of progress can be made within one year. And they greatly underestimate the kind of progress that can be achieved in 10 years.

I was asked by my wife to describe what I do so that she can send it to a friend who is apparently finding people for companies in Japan. It’s no secret that I have a love affair with GPT4.
So I sat down and gave GPT as much context as I could, adding a few more bits and pieces as I thought about them. Here’s the first version. Quite good, I think, couldn’t have written it better myself.
