A UI test went red in the same run that adopted three new APIs. The one
touching that screen was reverted; the test still failed. A modifier
order was corrected; still failed. Simulator data was wiped; still
failed. Running it against a clean checkout — which should have been the
first move, not the fourth — it failed there too, with none of the work
present.
The scrolling entry had already been rewritten to explain the fault in
confident detail. That write-up was fiction, so it now says what actually
happened: the API was convicted on circumstance and remains unproven
here, and the one claim that survives is about its two-way binding
costing invalidations.
xcode-practice gets the general lesson, since it will outlive this
particular test: stash and rerun before reasoning about which edit did
it, and a note recording a false cause is worse than no note, because
the next person believes it.

The skill so far only held what we broke ourselves. Most of what is worth
knowing about a new SDK is found rather than suffered — release notes,
other people's articles — and that deserves a place too, on terms that
stay fair to whoever wrote it.
So: entries in our own words, source named and linked, and the one thing
no external article can supply — what it would replace in our code and
whether it is genuinely a step forward. Attribution answers plagiarism,
not copyright, so nothing is pasted; an API signature is a fact, the
paragraph explaining it is not ours to take.
First four entries come from Natalia Panferova's writing at nilcoalescing
.com: the close button role and concentric corners, both of which replace
things we hand-built; ScrollPosition, which replaces one wrapper view;
and the iOS 27 toolbar APIs, which we cannot use at our deployment target
but which would delete a workaround the day we can.
A LICENSE was overdue and now says plainly what is ours, what is Apple's
and stays out of the repository, and what belongs to the authors we cite.
