Finally got a new update pushed to my Ultimate National Team database. There are a number of tournaments from 2022 and 2023, which are still on my to-do list, but at least now the World Games information is pretty complete. hartti.com/national_teams/al…

As the WG data sources seem to contain player birth date information for the last 4 world games, it is possible to check for example the average age of WG Ultimate players - which seems to be creeping up (from 27.6 years in 2009 to 29.5 in 2022)

There are some outliers (like the host country team in 2009 - Chinese Taipei, with an avg age of 22.8). When analyzing only the 4 teams (au, ca, jp, us) which participated in all 4 events, the age still goes slightly up (from 28.5 to 29.2)

Seems that neither Core Data with CloudKit nor CloudKit alone work well for my use case for storing YouTube video tagging data for my iPad app. I want the data synced online but CoreData with CloudKit does not use the Public database. 1/5

... having separate development and production databases with no simple way to keep those database contents in sync (I am creating content for the tag database already during the development phase of the app and that data should be available when the app goes to production) 4/5

I guess is time to check if Realm (with Atlas) or Firebase would work for me. The remaining option is to use a database on my own server, but then I need to handle all the server side development as well including API setup and authentication. Oh well… 5/5
Note to self: In the future, please please please, try to be better in separating the data / model from the UI layer. Makes changing the data backend much easier, or at least less painful. #randomiosdevthought
Note to self: When using CloudKit, trust the documentation and experts: Limit the number of round trips. For my simple use case, fetching multiple records in one go meant going down from 25s to 3s… #randomiosdevthought
