I doubt Apple really cares much about competing with other languages, tooling, or platforms when it comes to Swift or Xcode. They have a completely captured audience and ecosystem, and anything beyond that isn’t even a "best effort&quo

The tab completion for the AI suggestions is 100% the most annoying feature I've ever used. I just want to indent my line and not have to keep hitting escape 1000 times. Awful.

Well in any case, Ross Ulbricht got what he deserved. Now he'll spend the rest of his life wearing an ankle bracelet.

Ross Ulbricht was not a good person. Full stop. He organized and operated a global criminal drug ring and conspired to have people killed. The only difference between DPR and Pabla Escobar is that DPR was running his drug business in the

I think you're still conflating two different concepts, but this is mostly natural at this point since I assume you program in languages that use 0-based indexing. 1-based indexing focuses on the conceptual sequence rather than the un

It doesn't invalidate anything and I'll continue to use Debian forever. But let's not pretend there is any "secret sauce". It's all just the same wild west of FOSS like any other distro or big project.
