I'm a bit of an eclectic mess πŸ™‚ I've been a programmer, journalist, editor, TV producer, and a few other things.

I'm currently working on my second novel which is complete, but is in the edit stage. I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago but then didn't write much till now.

I post about #Coding, #Flutter, #Writing, #Movies and #TV. I'll also talk about #Technology, #Gadgets, #MachineLearning, #DeepLearning and a few other things as the fancy strikes ...

A big old oak tree in its autumn colours with a coating of wintry sugar for good measure.

I spent some of today looking for big old trees. I found a glut of them, but struggled to turn the most interesting of them into photographs. Mental note made of their locations, though - so I will be returning!

Have a great evening. ❀️

So, once I got the CoreData stuff out of the way, implementing List filtering for Tusker turned out to be very simple πŸ™‚

Now, I can create multiple lists, add users I follow to those lists and then have the posts and boost by list members be filtered out from my home timline. I tell you, it feels great already πŸ˜€

There are a few gotchas β€” I have unread post counts implemented for the home timeline and that doesn’t take the filtered posts into account. So I have to fix that. And there is the possibility that replies to people on lists might still appear on the home timeline. But both of those should hopefully be easy to fix …

So, once all that is done and working fine, if anybody would like to try out this flavour of Tusker and you are on iOS/macOS let me know and I’ll put up build somewhere? TestFlight maybe?

Some history from my state:

"Junius Groves and his wife Matilda were potato farmers near Edwardsville in Wyandotte County. The potatoes were shipped all over the country by rail and Union Pacific Railroad even put a spur line on the Groves farm to make it easier to load the produce. Junius became known as the β€œpotato king of the world” because he grew more potatoes per acre than anyone else. He built a golf course for African-Americans and served as a trustee for Western University in Quindaro."

Lost about several hours messing around with CoreData yesterday trying to get the List filtering working for Tusker. I think this is why I prefer my own SQLite abstraction layer since then I know what the heck is going on ...

CoreData just gives cryptic error messages and while you’ll probably know what is going on if you work with CoreData all the time, for somebody who messes with it occasionally, it’s all a bit too much.

I was on the verge of adding my changes as JSON files since my changes wouldn’t have added a lot of data when I finally figured out what was going on with CoreData. Whew!

Now I need to actually implement the list filtering and we might be done?
