   Honestly, if you’re a VSCode user, just get the “Thunder Client” plugin. Gets the job done, and keeps you in the editor!

   Beautiful Soup is an incredibly robust, and powerful tool. However, it can be sometimes be an intimidating tool for beginners (which ".find_x_y_z" method should I use again?). To that end you should check out gazpacho (with just a

   This is terrible. While I like VSCode, I exclusively use Atom for programming in Python because of Hydrogen [0], an extension which makes .py scripts feel and behave as though they were Jupyter Notebooks. I hope the nteract/Hydrogen de

    Not to defend Scorpion Capital (because I don't know anything about them), but this is specifically why our public markets allow short selling... to provide an incentive to do this type of research (uncover alleged fraud, crimes, etc),

    Perhaps you can post a photo of what you're looking for? Because your instructions aren't super clear :)

    GeometryReader is a pretty critical part of the SwiftUI framework. I'd recommend getting familiar with it! Saying "you can't use GeometryReader" would be like saying you can't use UIKit's Auto Layout...

    Observable/StateObjects help bridge between models and views... I'd recommend watching this WWDC session: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2020/10040/

    "tried" being the operative word. But you really shouldn't be persisting an ObservableObject. You should extract what you need into a model and use Codable...

    Yeah. 1,300,000 to 6,500 (not counting the dependencies). While the previous devs obviously had programming experience, it was clear they were quite green in Swift/iOS. Customer value was that the OG app was crashing like 1 in every 6

    Apple tried to solve this with @AppStorage, but if you lean on MVVM... it doesn't really work. Hoping we get some new CoreData + UserDefaults stuff this upcoming WWDC

    I'm targeting iOS 14+ for most projects and planning to drop when iOS 16 drops as well. Thankfully async/await was back-ported to iOS 13 (can't live without it!)

    I just finished a contract on an app with 400K users. It was in pretty bad shape when I got my hands on it. Last update: February 2020. Targeting iOS 11+, mostly UIKit, powered by Cocoapods with 25 dependencies, and 1.3M LOC. It took me 3 m
