Saying Flutter and native iOS share the same issues is not the same as denying it as a Flutter issue.

Native UI parity went extinct because platforms kept changing UI guidelines in every major release to keep things feeling "fresh" and new. A native app might inherit a lot from the toolkit but it'll still look weird without a

It boggles my mind that anyone invests precious time and effort chasing such a fickle group of users. Anything less than Apple's vision of perfection and harmony or you'll be dumped in a heartbeat. "Think Different" inde

You're classing essentially nonprofit Linux community efforts as "3rd party" then you're comparing it to one of the flagship products of one of the largest tech companies in the world. Are you even listening to yourself?

It's not compulsory and it's not lifting, only requiring multifamily zoning around transit catchment areas. Towns that refuse to implement it lose out on state funding meaning the wealthy towns are free to ignore it. Perversely, t

Homebrew is not Apple so you're just reinforcing OP's point: you need to go to a 3rd party to get a CLI that's worth a damn. Nor is Homebrew supported by Apple which is totally outrageous, given that without it, you might as

The moderate Republican is functionally extinct. They've been stripped of party positions like Cheney, died like McCain, or retired to "spend more time with family". Romney might be the only one left? Who do you think would r

The proof of what you've learned is in doing it yourself. Effort from your hands speaks far louder than reading and passing tests. But you can't do everything. Find a club or project adjacent to your interests and do one big thing

It seems like BLM is the new Godwin's Law of protesting. This is like inappropriately invoking the Holocaust. BLM arose from several extrajudicial murders by police after a history of racism and mistreatment by the state. The trucker p

Behaves like it's Chrome only? Gonna have to pass on that one. Or maybe MacOS only? I dunno. Definitely doesn't feel snappy and certain things just don't work.

Without better/actual enforcement, the alternative is to simply ban cars. Of course, the true choice will be to do nothing and let innocent people die (hey-o covid!).

You got the same behavior from Uber drivers. They'll park wherever is closest to their fare, regardless of whether it blocks traffic, because if they don't, the fare gives them a 1-star rating. Cousin was a city cop. If he told th

Rush hour traffic is always going to be a bell curve. Fewer total people driving just makes the bell more narrow. 8:30 - 9 will always suck but 10 might be okay now.

Boston drivers were cconditioned for perpetual bumper-to-bumper traffic. With traffic levels down, there was no bumper in front of them to slow them down so they just floor it until they find one.

What is the difference between wind turbines and highways or utility poles festooned with cables? It seems to me that the key thing is that the latter were installed a long time ago and acceptance is baked into life. But if you think about

MacOS Docker had performance problems and odd limitations because it was really a Linux VM under the hood (Darwin can't run containers) and any host passthru stuff needed that additional hypervisor translation, which wasn't always

Even if you're allowed to use Linux, you still end up getting a Mac to support your coworkers. I suppose I can be grateful that Docker Desktop is slowly fading away. Sadly Homebrew is too essential to die and the ${g} prefix remains fo

Totally off topic but how are you received being a resident in a country and not being able to speak the language? Not that I'm looking to emigrate but damn if your country isn't appealing to the cargo-bike riding cyclist in me.

I've long believed that Apple's focus on user privacy was more driven by lack of engineering ability/bandwidth to exploit data themselves, rather than intrinsic belief.

A bit of a strawman, there's a big different in user benefit between certain CSS/JS features and FLOC. The web as a whole would be better if Safarai/iOS supported PWAs.

China structures things overwhelmingly in favor of its domestic companies to the point of ridiculousness. It's well past simple tariffs when you need joint ventures, a license to operate a website, source code disclosure, key escrow, g

I think parent was commenting on the "China bans US tech, we should ban TikTok", which is just reflexive poop throwing between two countries. GDPR is totally different: it's a level headed statement of principles for how ALL

I dunno, she sounds pretty combative and started the thread acting aggrieved. It's not a great look for a "developer evangelist". There's a good discussion here but maybe it shouldn't involve her.

"Extraordinary claims without evidence or rationale are bogus" as a heuristic seems pretty good to me? When presented with a problem and infinite solutions, you need to start narrowing down which paths to investigate somehow. Come

I'm not Ancapistani but I think iNav is more suited to that sort of thing, over Betaflight. I don't have any experience with it personally though. Also check out OpenHD. It's a 100% open source HD/Digital FPV system with

Certainly with the Cisco system, not worth the money they charge for the hardware! Every room has a few $25 wholesale price Ikea grade chairs, a table, and then a $100k conference phone.
