On coding, tech, privacy, AI and whatever else comes to this mind.

Bored with the long assertion failure messages that XCTest produces? I used to copy them into Kaleidoscope to diff them, but I'm now using Raycast AI for it and I love it:

- I've added an ^K hot key for its "Search AI command" action
- I can then select a failure in Xcode, hit that hot key
- Type a prompt to have it explain the failure (or pick from my recent prompts)
- Tada!

Xcode shows a long assertion failure lots of noise about two things not being equal.

An overlay shows the Raycast app, where I selected my prompt “What field(s) differed to cause the failure?”, and it shows the ChatGPT response explaining the failure in concise and easy to understand language.
