Not really since the developer has no way to compete on merits. Sherlocked used to mean that, yes, there's a builtin version now but your app could at least try and compete. Not so much in this case.

I mean at the very least there could be a settlement since Apple most likely doesn't want to cause even more bad PR. But who knows.

Why would you lump PWAs and AMP pages together? They're hardly the same problem. PWAs are a threat to the App Store model. It's obvious that it would spawn a new category of apps that effectively enable sideloading. You've go

Well sure, but he also pushed for the 20th Anniversary Mac. So it's not an entirely unfair assessment.

I think the trick is also to watch pontential extreme videos linked from some place else in private mode so that your feed doesn't get messed up. But yeah I'd second that. My feed is mostly video games, music & crafting which

Wow I never realized the "goose" one is the knock off.

Yeah. That's the problem. Might not be related at all to the SF housing situation, insane rents and the fact that the US still has no universal health care insurance. You know. Stuff people need to survive and not be homeless.

Two things: 1) Docker images are not virtual machines (see this link: https://www.docker.com/resources/what-container ) 2) Maybe the Docker Engine (the service that bootstraps the images) caused the panic?

I feel the same fatigue. But on the other hand: looking at the boiler plate to get a web backend running I honestly don't see that much of a difference. Granted my experience is mostly limited to the Java ecosystem (specifically Spring

It's ReCaptcha all over again. They're training their neural nets for free and as an incentive tell you which painting is the closest.

So a new account called Signalvwhatsapp submits a UX "case study" regarding the usability of Signal vs. Whatsapp (it says so in the post title: "Is Signal as easy to use as WhatsApp? (a ~40 hour analysis)"). The study

Well for what it's worth: Thomann started out as and still is a Brick and Mortar Store. In fact it used to be quite the Mom&Pop Shop makin sales in the founder's living room that doubled as a show floor. They however were exce

I'm German. It was on the news that Californians were instructed to conserve water in their households because of annual droughts.

I mean it is cryptic. But it's not exactly a secret that California suffers from water shortages.

It's also important to be precise. No, not the App dropped 16000 results. The automation process that gathered the results into an Excel Workbook used the old XLS Format which has this limit and quietly fails when it is exceeded. So wh

I'm not a US citizen so I'm not familiar with mobile plan prices there but T-Mobile Germany (our AT&T) has an unlimited data plan for 83€/month. So that's actually pretty close to the 99$. And seeing as they have the

Audacity works well for that purpose. But not all things are intuitive and the interface looks quite dated to be honest.

I checked it out. It is amazing. However am I correct that it's still mostly driven by mouse input? I couldn't find any other keybindings to navigate a website.

Discord believe it or not. When it became clear that we all had to work from home we evaluated a bunch of web conferencing tools that needed to work on Windows, macOS & Linux. And the one tool that worked right out of the gate with scre

I was thinking of online platforms designed to collaborate on projects with fellow researchers. Jupiter Notebooks or even Github where you can track progress and issues.

I'm aware of all the points you outlined, which is why I wrote "design something new and everybody got on board in an instant". Perhaps my wording is flawed. I'm still more interested in the use case. Not what it takes t

What prevents you from designing a new protocol? I agree though with the monolithic one company app part.
