The problem with Hiya as I understand it is that it is limited by CallKit list size. I'm not 100% sure of this, but I think Apple's implementation requires a fully offline call list so that your phone calls are not sent to a publi

I recently added Flow Type to a Javascript project and it changed my opinion on this debate. I realized that I really don't care about static vs dynamic typing. What I care about is a hierarchy of the ways that my code can be more like

"Software without tests should be assumed to not work" is true in real life as well. If an external company tried to enter the building periodically and the security guards review included these tests, it would change.

You are arguing with a straw man. The other side doesn't believe that a dollar spent by the government is as effective as a dollar spent by the private sector.

This is fixed pie thinking and it's not a good way to look at the economy and jobs. If this large block of people were earning more, they would be spending more. That means more restaurant jobs, home builders, baby sitters, etc. It

The journalistic norm for years has been, as long as you don't lie, no one can prove you were being dishonest, so you get to keep your credibility. So, what happened instead is they used other tactics to insinuate, without stating. My

I think both sides just argue past each other. Democrats promote government regulation as the solution without discussing the problems. Heavy regulation often leads to stagnation and lack of innovation. You also have to deal with regulatory
