I like to ship stuff. I actually get pleasure from releasing stuff into the wild.

Shipping, is, by definition, "finishing." Lots of boring stuff involved.

Most of my R&D and learning is geared towards shipping projects.

I will "let stuff go," if I find I'm in a rabbithole. Learning when to do this, is important. I just let go of some ML stuff for Apple systems, mainly because I can't really apply it [yet] to the types of apps that I'll ship. It wasn't a total loss, though, because I learned that I really need to use Intents for what I want.

So, right now, I am learning Intents development for Apple systems. It's a pain, because the documentation is really haphazard, but I'm muddling through.

I'll start by adding them to a released app that I tend to use as my "pointman" for new stuff, then, I'll add it to some of my other shipping apps. While I'm doing this, I'll become "conversational" in the tech. That's how I always learn this stuff. Maybe I'll write something up on it (like I did for Universal Links[0]).
