Reply to import python to Xcode
Can I bump this thread? I'm also getting this error "PythonKit/PythonLibrary.swift:59: Fatal error: 'try!' expression unexpectedly raised an error: Python library not found. Set the PYTHON_LIBRARY environment variable with the path to a Python library. 0 " I tried to follow this other guide : https://medium.com/swift2go/embedding-python-interpreter-inside-a-macos-app-and-publish-to-app-store-successfully-309be9fb96a5 and it no longer works can someone redirect me to some updated instructions?

Reply to What is the future of Objective-C?
I became a Software Developer basically because of MacOS-X and Objective-C. I just love the syntax, yes it can become a mess sometimes with all the nested brackets but it is pretty unique. Apple has been known for shaving layers of products and technologies (PowerPC WebObjects Carbon ...) so I wouldn't be surprised but I will be really disappointed. With Carbon Apple initially announced MacOS X and Cocoa and never mentioned anything about getting rid of it but they eventually did. Regarding Swift it has nice things but the syntax is kind of boring tbh. I always wondered why Apple went with a new syntax instead of modernize Objective-C get rid of some redundancy and add new things like lambdas and so on. My hypothesis is that the original generation of Apple/Next developers were displaced by the new people coming from the Windows and GNU world that got in after the success of the iPhone.
