The App Store rules are mostly about making more money. So what, it's not a charity.

You think this is indisputable, but I don't see why there needs to be a law against these anti-steering rules.

Are you implying that macOS has a smaller market share because of the lack of restrictions? Cause its competition, Windows, is less restricted if anything.

Also, Fortnite isn't available on Google's store. Which is what that Epic case was about.

I honestly don't think it's insane at all. Middlemen are everywhere, and if a government body wants to complain about taxation, glass houses... Before iPhone and Android, it was infeasible for small-time devs to sell apps pretty m

With the important caveat that the surcharge can't be more than 3% or the fee, whichever is lowest. Is there a similar caveat for cash discounts?

Golang's error handling is safer than C's, but it's more cumbersome than it needs to be. In high-level code, nearly every func you write can return an error, and 99% of the time you're just going to pass the error up. We

The problem with actually learning to code in school is that you'd spend a lot of time learning specifics that become outdated, which you could've self-studied anyway. Idk what it was like in the 1980s, but in 2015 our CS practice

The only time I said "why don't we just use a calculator" in school was during the oddly specific focus on integration techniques in calculus (trig substitution etc). Seems like the problems were carefully set up to be solvab

Thanks, but I stopped playing for unrelated reasons before that was posted. Previous fixes people posted involved inserting some different DLL, which didn't work for me. Not sure if I did something wrong or they were outdated in newer

They made the Mac a compatibility nightmare with games, so it doesn't matter so much how fast the hardware is. And going from a 2009 Mac Pro with an RX580 to an M1 mini, every game was slower, especially csgo (before it became cs2).

In a way, it's worse the less frequently you want to play, cause it means you'll have to wait for Windows updates every time. But it works.

Would not say that Linux gaming works as well as Windows gaming. Plenty of things won't work in Proton, at least not out of the box, and you're kinda restricted to AMD GPUs. That's fine cause I don't play video games any

MacOS doesn't force updates for general users. But if you want to run the latest Xcode, yeah you need the latest OS.

I feel like I own my Mac because it doesn't bother me for anything and lets me do what I want. The iPhone, less so because it's secured against me in many ways.
