IOS products are a local optimum
- haarts 15y agoZacks rant was mainly targeted at the horror of software development. In that respect iOS with Xcode and Objective-C are a step back.
- bignoggins 15y agoa step back from what? I find iOS/Xcode/Obj-C to be a great dev environment.
- chriseidhof 15y agoI'm not sure about that. I think it's about a lot more than just that =).
- jond3k 15y agoWeather forecasts are a more optimal way of knowing the future than looking at the sky. These incremental improvements might not mean much by themselves, but in aggregate, they've meant the human race has come very far.
- chriseidhof 15y agoWeather forecasts are great, and a huge improvement. But another weather forecast reading app isn't such a big improvement, unless they're easier, more beautiful or have better forecasts. I think the first two points are pretty much covered (there is always room for improvement, but still). My point is that we should aim to improve on the third point.
