Apple Thread Utils
Apple has a really nice utility straightforwardly called the Main Thread Checker. It detect uses of APIs on a background thread that really should be on the main thread.
Updating UI on a thread other than the main thread is a common mistake that can result in missed UI updates, visual defects, data corruptions, and crashes.

Local and Online During the Shutdown
Yeah, the Hideout Theater and basically everywhere else is closed right now. Looking for something new to do with your Saturday night besides watch Tiger King 🙄?
Maybe try the Parallelogramophonograph virtual improv show. It live. It’s spontaneous. It’s real. It’s not Tiger King.
And unlike normal Hideout Theater shows, you don’t have to find parking downtown. 🤷🏻♂️
Another local options Ground Floor Theater’s “Covid Canon” online series of live play readings. 👉 KUT Story
