Interesting, in the European Union SMS token are mostly illegal for financial services, because they are not considered safe enough.

It's not just emerging markets. Many people are not capable of setting up authenticator apps, not everyone is a "techy" and not everyone is smart. Those people use the internet too. SMS token is something that is much easier

It depends. Using SMS as a second (!) factor is fine. There are better options, but SMS is much better than no second factor at all. What you absolutely shouldn't do is allowing password reset only via SMS token, because it's ofte

That's why we stopped innovation of programming languages at C89? Why use sql at all if you can also do it in C?
906.
by andix 3y ago
Because SQL can be cumbersome to write. It's often repetitive, requires nesting, aliases, and a specific order of statements.

TL;DR: Get good legal advice when co-founding a company. Especially when a VC is involved. And be aware that rich people will always have better legal advice (and options) than you will ever be able to afford.

I'm not talking about Electron software, Electron doesn't exist on iOS or Android. Android and iOS have integrated webview componentes that are much more lightweight and are used in a lot of "native apps". Very often you

False, that's exactly what the Digital Markets Act is about. Apple is trying to circumvent it right now with those new fees, and I think this won't hold in court. https://commission.europa.eu/strategy-and-policy&#x

Apple does not charge for "using their SDK". They charge for installing (commercial) applications to devices they produce and sell. Even if I build an application completely without the Apple SDK, just with open source software, I

Even the biggest fanboys will understand it's Apples fault. The laws apply to all the manufacturers and just Apple "thinks differently".

Can you see the problem? People have Android phones from big manufacturers and not getting updates. If this will change in the future that's great. But now people have phones that don't get updates.
915.
by andix 3y ago
Exactly, there were a lot of similar promises like that before. And then the excuses started. Old phones got the promised updates months after the Android release. Sometimes even after already the next Android version was released.

I guess only security updates are mandated. With an iPhone you always get the newest version of iOS and many/most new features, not just some patches.

What the EC wants is more or less what you get with Windows, macOS or Android. Being able to install apps from any source and being able to buy apps from any app store/vendor without them being forced to pay commission/fees to App

I think you're completely missing the point. The problem is not access to the SDK, the problem is that Apple is locking down their platform to competitors. They can't sell apps or content without giving a commission to the "g

Last time I looked into alternatives (it’s been a while) there was no manufacturer that provided updates to latest Android without any delays for longer than 2 years. And manufacturers constantly broke their promise to keep delivering updat

Let me tell you a secret: a LOT of native apps are built on web technologies. Those apps are just shells with some web views.

It looks like Apple found a loop hole. I don’t think this loop hole will stay open for long. Edit: I really think that we will soon get an addendum to this law that will limit those fees. In a similar way mobile phone roaming fees got regul

This business model can only be broken via regulations from another country. The European Union is on it right now, and their plans give a little bit of hope. Apple/Google will never voluntarily give up their stores. And it's also

I think this is going to be just a temporary issue. They ran out of time and had to comply ASAP, as the DMA is going to take effect in a few weeks. The DMA didn't come by surprise, but I guess they tried to play all their cards to get

PWAs will only replace native apps when the operating systems support them properly. Let's see how the European Union moves forward with the Digital Markets Act. Let's see if a regulation like that can tame Apple, or if Apple keep

It depends what the "full self driving" feature is legally. How it is described, what the warning messages on the screen tell the driver, what the manual says. If the person was a Tesla employee I think it's safe to assume th

Keycloak is great but can be quite confusing for starters. It has a lot of features and not the best documentation. I recently tried Zitadel and found it much easier to use. It's a bit harder to self-host though because it can't r

If you already know it's validated and coming from a trusted source there is no reason to validate it again. For example json from a database that only allows inserting valid json. In such cases even the structure might be known and so

180 TB is still a small customer in the scale of big cloud providers, so they probably just don't care. If the customers are willing to pay the price they are taking their money, if they go to one of the smaller providers they are fine

I would be interested how much discount on the egress fees is possible for big customers. Especially if you're running a service that is heavy on egress, for example something with video processing that also exports/streams videos

Absolutely true, I guess we would need an experiment like that with a regular model air plane that also a human can learn to fly. I think the learning process for the AI would still be rather poor compared to a human. But also in other mach
