Oh no you're fine. I wasn't criticizing your explanation, just prefacing that I'm pretty ignorant with this stuff. But I find what you're building very interesting.

I didn't understand a lot of that, but have you found any dapp bugs yet?

I believe one argument is if China owns US companies, it means China is providing capital to a US company. Maybe it becomes clearer by asking, "How does allowing China to own US companies harm the US (economically)?"

I totally understand the upside of writing one app for both platforms, but at the end of the day they are still two different platforms. It seems unlikely you’re going to make a high quality app unless you give each version the individualiz

I would prefer a faster bootup time and search field that doesn't lag for 3 seconds before bringing up the keyboard. Maybe it's because I'm using an iPhone 5S but it would still be nice.

If you're interested in Swift just for Swift, then I would recommend against learning Swift through iOS development (just in case you were thinking about that). You'll spend more time figuring out things specific to iOS (cocoa fra

Parsable seems to be dealing with the issue of unique workflows. From what I understand they provide a tool to companies that lets them create their own workflow. https://www.parsable.com

I know it is meant to be satirical, but the reality is there are trade-offs involved with each of these points. I don't think it is wise to treat any of them as absolute rules. Maybe someone smarter than me could write about the trade-

"Rent-seeking" is referring to something different than literally seeking rent money. It's basically when people lobby the government to get special favors for themselves, even though it negatively impacts almost everyone els

I’m probably the minority here but I don’t like to customize my Vim too much. 1 - it takes time. 2 - half the reason I like Vim is because I can use it anywhere. If I’m so used to a highly customized setup, then I am going to feel out of pl

Teach to test + inflated grades - If that turns out to be true, then I suppose that is what parents want. Who else should be the one deciding how/what students are taught? Weaker students - Maybe. But if weaker students are being overl

The number of ways this could possibly go wrong - It's true. It could end up being a disaster. But there are also probably unimaginable ways it could go right. Lower-income students being punished - Lower-income students are already be

Adequate information - Do you think principals have adequate information? If so, why couldn't they just provide it to the parents then? Besides, there are many tools such as feedback reviews + word of mouth which would help with the in

I seriously think it's great idea, but I am not seriously pursuing it at the moment.

TeachBay (for grade schools) - Parents bid in an auction for seats in a teacher's classroom at the beginning of the school year, instead of having the principal assign students to teachers. This will reward the good teachers, punish th

You can build your UI programmatically and not touch storyboards/xibs. A lot of people do this and I am slowly moving away from IB myself. This library has been recommended for doing autolayout: https://github.com/nakio

If I understand GraphQL correctly, it sounds like I will be re-writing queries multiple times across different clients (android/ios/web). For the majority of (simple) read operations this doesn't seem like such a big deal. Bu

If Walmart really is taking advantage of its workers, then why doesn't another company come in and offer better terms? Are you claiming Walmart has monopsony power over low-wage workers?

This probably has more to do with anti-trust concerns. They don't want to appear as a monopoly to regulators.

But I've found this is where you start to want a full-blown web framework, at least in my experience. Logic sounds very close to what Cloud Code is on Parse Server, is that right?

If you're making a marketplace app, what are the most common methods for overcoming the chicken-and-egg problem in the very beginning? For example, I think Airbnb did door-to-door in the early days.
