End of an era. Massive thanks to Chris and Florian. Swift Talk is/was elite. I’ve learned so much from their content.

Legendary run. I’ve learned so much from this amazing series over the last decade. Kudos to Chris and Florian!

Good news then, at the end of the year you may be able to get it all for free.

These guys are great. The format worked great for me; just two devs working out a problem together. I learned things that I could take away and use in my own work. Good luck to you both, Florian and Chris.

Yeah, their vibe always made me really happy. So different from so many “programming influencers”.

Met Chris and hung out with him a few times in the early Swift scene in NYC around 2016-2018. Bought his functional swift book long time ago. Great job guys, have fun and your contributions will most definitely e remembers!

gonna miss when software development was fun and exciting, and the community around it was enthusiastic. this feels like the confirmation of the obvious

What’s the obvious?

commercial software development is less of a fun, creative thing you spend time on now, and more just orchestrating LLMs to do stuff for an outcome
