Very cool work. However; I fear this moves software engineering closer to the role of something like plumbing. I've despaired at the state of most software I've used since as far back as I can remember, except when it comes to too

Running apps that Apple don’t like on the App Store. SSH’ing into your iPhone. And the main reason for jailbreaking now is so you can dump source code from running IPAs with Frida.

6 months ago I went through every single website in my safari keychain and changed their password, even if the password was already unique. I also removed my credit card at some point after this from every single website - and changed the c

I thought this stuff was so silly too until I read Yarvins resignation letter. It goes someways to explain the esoteric nature of the tooling. He sets out quite eloquently the reasons for it; 1. Laziness (which I think is a modest way of sa

I was really surprised to hear that John Carmack and Github engineers were brought it to clean the code up - after - the government based some of its choices to go in to lockdown. I know more and more of us are getting sucked into the '

I made a clone of YikYak because I thought that would be a good idea For people in lockdown. After almost finishing it (only few bugs left) I decided to not bother trying to release it. Like most projects my initial enthusiasm went out the

Agreed that the barrier to entry for mobile app dev is high enough to the point of excluding vast swathes of developers from building tools for themselves. Ive been an iOS dev for 5 years and I'm now looking to move into web dev for a

I agree around usage of Firebase here because no one really knows what data is being sucked up there but it looks like the intent of usage here is pretty clean; If you look at the code Firebase is in there because the push notifications to

I had no idea about this, I revoke the part about it being great. Still cheap though, can't take that away from my original statement.

Anyone from the Isle of Wight here to confirm how they are installing it for iOS specifically? I've not seen it in the iOS App Store and am very curious to see if they are side loading it.

Institutional trust has been eroding since Watergate and almost non-existent since Snowden leaks. Seeing Apples name on the PRISM slide was a gut bunch, you dont and will never get blind trust anymore. Saying this is similar to the anti-vax

I've been wondering about the UK contact tracing app because they seem to be deliberately misleading saying that data is secure on the phone, yet it's a centralised model, and they are using bullshit terms like "clinically se

Guys what if... You had 200 fans each paying 500 a year? Amazing right? 500 is less than 1000 and 200 isn’t that much more than 100. Feel free to take down the OP and put this comment up instead
