Agreed. It's similar to how BBM was a killer feature for blackberry and brought so many people into that ecosystem. It may not be enough to keep a company going forever - apple has many other ways of propelling itself - but its powerfu

We're not beholden. They are simply good ideas that extend beyond the medium (letters, telegrams, and emails included). It mimics life, you cannot unsay something. If someone is hostile in a message towards me, and then deletes that me

This article is a bit pretentious. I had an Android phone when RCS was rolling out. It never worked. Well before then, iMessage - like most message platforms - already did everything that RCS did and far better. Thank gosh Apple (and other

You shouldn't have total control over a shared message. You have no right to delete something that you sent to someone else from their device. Same reason you can't delete an email you sent to someone from their inbox or burn a le

I like the idea presented here but I think a mix of approaches is needed. After the author's chapter 2, "Chapter 2: Suits (String concatenation, Int vs literal string)" I would want to extend it to say on top of strings and i

As long as the data is from within the system, yes. If you're trying to use data from an external source (api request, external json file etc) than no, but that's true of most type systems. If you correctly type the response of th

I agree and even for my own side projects, where I'm writing everything I often forget different parts. We end up spending a lot of time naming things (variables, functions, classes etc) well, we forget we can also just include a longe

I agree but those files are already stored somewhere - your PC, kindle, cloud account etc. On top of which, purchasing a movie via the Google Play Store or a book via Kindle doesn't mean you actually own that digital asset, just that y

I have a keyboard[0] that supports a concept of layers which means if I press a key (or hold it down) the layout changes. With this, I have it set such that the keys i o, and k l, are for curly braces and parentheses. My left hand holds dow

This article doesn’t have any depth. TLDR: avoid blocking unrelated async requests via await. What’s far more interesting and harder to solve ergonomically is to parallelize async functions - parse responses to validate if they’ve succeeded

Oh interesting. My continue watching is the top row. Honestly - this is something I am disliking more and more about the A/B, personalized experience effect. Somethings are much better for everyone to have a common experience without i

What do you have issue with in Netflix's UX? Is it on the discoverability side or the watching side? Watching is a seamless experience IMO - It really does just work, all the buttons and responses are perfect.

I wrote this article[0] as part of my own journey to understand monads and category theory. I think you may find it helpful. It has a practical use case that builds up an intuitive model to a new monad. It goes through a few solutions for

Cars are mandated to include safety features and undergo testing to be deemed safe. This was not done of the car companies' own volition. They were forced to adhere to safety standards. An obvious example of which is to include seat be

I truly don't understand what is so difficult about getting the booster shot. Outside of that, a private institution is absolutely allowed to make a rule like this. If you don't want to get a booster shot that's fine - the go

The Temporal API supports a `from` method/function on most of the options - that's very much the functional approach to avoid `new`. Often objects that are class based will expose a `of` or `from` method that abstracts over the `n

This is very similar to how npm works. Each installed package has its own dependencies installed that are kept separate from other packages even if another package has the same dependency. For all the hate of npm and node_modules it’s wonde

This is a big reason I’m really enjoying using Remix. They by default aim to make building JS less apps super easy through their framework. And of course you can progressively enhance your app with JS if available.

What I like about JS is I can write nearly everything with const. Functions are const, data is const, and I rarely use classes. It removes a lot of overhead, avoids this questions, and makes everything consistent and so makes spotting simil
