Anecdotal, but for what it's worth, only two of my Apple charging cables have broken since 2007. I always hear about people having issues with them, so maybe I've been lucky with all of mine, or maybe I just don't treat them like I expect them to be indestructible.

Yepp, I generally will try for the exit row or the first row in a section (sacrificing no under seat storage), but they tend to be the first seats booked. Since I'm usually traveling with multiple other people and we prefer sitting together, it makes it pretty difficult to reliably select those seats with extra leg room. I haven't seen any airlines that charge "+$25 for the extra leg room" on 12+ hour international flights, but if they exist I'd love to know which ones they are!

Anecdotal, but I'm 193cm, take a few 12+ hour flights per year, and have no problem not reclining. For what it's worth, I feel like I've experienced people on my shorter, domestic flights reclining their seats more often than on my longer, international flights.

I'm 6'4" with a lot of my height in my legs. Sitting comfortably (not slouching, mind you), my knees already barely rub against the seat in front of me. As soon as that seat is reclined, my knees get crushed and I have to either sit up even straighter or twist to the side, neither of which are comfortable. Or, I have to pay to be in a higher fare class with more space.

Apple Maps has had "Look Around" (their implementation of Street View) for a while now.

Hello! I'm Lewis Godowski, a software engineer with ~10 years of experience across iOS and backend. I find joy in dogs, desserts, and the small details of good design. I am a strong advocate for end users and their experience with a product.

Most recently, I was brought onto a new strategic business unit build to turnaround, manage, and lead an underperforming team of ~10 iOS engineers at a top 10 global motorcycle manufacturer. I had two main responsibilities I needed to balance: people management (upwards with product stakeholders, laterally with other pods and work streams, and downwards with my team) and doing some heavy lifting as an individual contributor. I created structure and improved hygiene in the team, codebase, and sprint/scrum life cycle, which stabilized our velocity and allowed us to find our rhythm and deliver on schedule.

Unfortunately, my current role has been transforming more and more into a business/digital consultant, which means a lot of working on slide decks and high-level architectures that never see the light of day. It's bumming me out and taking me away from what I really enjoy: writing code, learning new skills, and wearing multiple hats to solve problems.

Ideally, I'm looking for an iOS (or Vapor, a server-side Swift framework) role that lets me really flex my Swift expertise.

Sounds like a great use for SharePlay! (:
