Apollo is only one of many third party apps. RIF, Relay, Sync, Narwhal, BaconReader, Readder, and Slide are the ones I can recall off the top of my head. There are dozens of others out there, and Apollo is iOS-only. Apollo just happens to h

The last physical game I purchased (~2 years ago now; can't even remember the game) didn't even have a disk in the case. The case just had a card with a code for the Xbox Store on it. Decided I was done buying "physical"

PHP has a way to compile entire applications into single files, for what it's worth. You can compile it all in your CI/CD and then push the PHAR file to all the servers (instead of the thousands of regular files). I don't kno

JSDoc's PHP equivalent is phpDoc. It's just a way to document things and both are third party libraries that have industry-wide adoption. What you're thinking of in PHP is not a comment. It's called an Attribute, is bu

I agree with him on this. If something is sensitive in modern times, it's better to leave as-is and attach a warning like WB did with some Looney Tunes cartoons saying "It's a product of its time and no longer reflects modern

You'll see that type of output from most WYSYWIG editors. Some are better than others and they've improved over time, but a lot are still garbage. Both Redactor and TinyMCE would have produced something like this at points in the

At a glance, it seems like the open source MariaDB is just fine. It's the commercial company that is dead/dying. This may affect future development on the OSS side, but for now it seems like there's no immediate danger. As fo

That is just an insane scale to think about. I'm at a smaller company, and it's disruptive just to add 2 people at once like we did last month. 230,000 since August 2020 (965 days) is an average of 238 new employees per day. If yo
