It feels like the only unreasonable party is the author.
- Gigablah 12y agoIt feels like shoddy work by Apple engineers, actually. Seriously, making use of an open source library and breaking it (indirectly) for everyone else in the process?
- bigiain 12y ago"Shoddy work" is maybe a little over-the-top, but I certainly agree that they've screwed up here by not thinking through the implications of the system within which they've made all their design/coding choices (or considering the impenetrability of the system to outside developers, who's work they're happy to use, but who then have very few other workable option except "public shaming" when this sort of unintended consequence occurs).
- gress 12y agoThe other options include: 1. Filing a Radar. 2. Using a DTS incident. 3. Emailing a platform evangelist. Seems like quite a lot can be tried before "public shaming" becomes the only option.
