I really hope they can make lifetimes invisible to people who don’t care about them. If I have to start using lifetimes in my SwiftUI apps, I will never write another app with Swift again.

OH NO. They’re introducing lifetimes to Swift. The most difficult part of Rust’s infamous borrow-checker. https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-evolution/blob/9ba7a574d1557eefb4bc3cce1d07efee51861f21/proposals/NNNN-lifetime-dependency.md

I never make more git commits than when I'm trying to figure out why a GitHub Action isn't working

Would it be possible to build a version of Codable with macros and without Mirror or runtime type metadata? Embedded Swift doesn't come with Codable, Encodable, Decodable, Mirror, or runtime metadata, but I'd still like object mapping...

@mattiem some new Swift concurrency questions, now that I'm pondering WebAssembly...

1. How does isolation work in single-threaded environments? Does the compiler know when it's building for a single-threaded environment? Is everything implicitly MainActor isolated?

2. Do you know if all Swift concurrency features included in the Embedded Swift language subset or are there some concurrency features that are not compatible with Embedded Swift?
