I'm not sure where everyone got the idea that I was advocating for high-risk active trading. I proposed using these services for "things like [Betterment]" and posted a link to a Markowitz minimum-variance portfolio rebalanci

I never proposed anything wildly different to what Wealthfront and Betterment do, the one example algorithm I gave is essentially buy and hold with rebalancing just like Betterment/Wealthfront, just using a different portfolio optimiza

That was in reference to the use of OS-provided components, which by definition have the same styling as the OS. Your point that native applications don't always have to use OS-provided components is taken though.

The point isn't entirely that "true" native apps are superior, the point is really that WebView wrappers are no more a "native" application than a standard HTML web application, because that's exactly what th

I tried Keepass but couldn't find a Mac compatible port that supported import from CSV, which kinda kills it because I already have all my passwords elsewhere and there are too many to move manually.
