The questions that come to mind for me: 1. How long after releasing the iOS app did you start on an Android version? 2. Are you using some kind of cross-platform framework, or are the apps mostly “mobile-friendly web views”? 3. How much cod

You left out the rest of the spec: > On void elements, it does not mark the start tag as self-closing but instead is unnecessary and has no effect of any kind. For such void elements, it should be used only with caution — especially

Be aware that there are members of the NTP pool with less-than-honorable intentions and you don't get to pick-and-choose. Yes, they all should provide the time, but they also get your IP address. For example: unlike the IPv4 space, t

I had this exact thought. Unfortunately I can't find a way to check the balance of an Apple gift card without signing in to an Apple ID⁽¹⁾. So maybe you need a throwaway Apple ID... ⁽¹⁾ https://support.apple.com/en-us&#

Only if they're not backing up their phone, which seems insane in this day and age. And even if they're not, if they have a computer or tablet, the passkey will still be available there assuming they share an account. You can also

Passkeys are fantastic for the vast majority of the population. They solve oodles of problems. No more teaching ${FAMILY_MEMBER} about good passwords, password re-use, trying to explain how to use a password manager, etc. Instead: create
