Safari was not forked from Chrome. Safari's engine, WebKit is an open-source browser engine originally forked from KHTML/KJS. Chrome's current engine, Blink is a fork of this.

You've been able to change the default browser on iOS for quite a while now. The underlying browser engine is the same, but non-technical users don't care and just want to sync bookmarks/passwords from Chrome/Firefox.

> Apple’s JavaScriptCore can do JIT Only for Safari or if you use a WKWebView, otherwise if you use JavascriptCore yourself on iOS, JIT is disabled and quite slow. On macOS it’s enabled.

The best way to answer these questions, I think, is to just try them out. For instance, Haskell has a very advanced type system that you won't get from Typescript, and it might change the way you approach your work in other languages.

Interesting, makes sense. Deutsche Bank has a pretty bad reputation for money laundering, as does Germany in general and especially Berlin.

I'm presuming it's the latter, which is precisely the reason they have a reputation for being some of the most unbearable people in the tech community.

No this definitely happened in Germany too, Solaris has been around for a long time and a whole slew of German neobanks and trading apps have been built on top of it. You can open an account with most of them by downloading the app and doin

Speculating on what OP meant, but it might be generational, in Germany often older people won't speak English that well. Younger people will generally have done a lot more English in school, however, and tend to be better. This is gene

The headline says that, the article is different. It's saying most research studies done on the mind are done on English-speaking participants.

They don't specify what types of issues they had with FFI which makes me somewhat dubious of the outcome here. There are tools to help paper over the rough edges of calling code through FFI, at least with Rust. Maybe the reasoning is m

I can't tell if this is satire. There isn't anything insulting about saying a country is insignificant (my home country definitely is).

I also use both extensively and I agree, Telegram has the best UX of any messaging app. The desktop app is QT I think so it feels very snappy compared to Signal's electron app. Signal's iOS app is a native Swift/UIKit app and

Swift itself still doesn’t self host and is approaching a version 6 release. I’m not a compiler developer but the outcome of all the discussions around this topic in the Swift community was that it wasn’t worthwhile yet.

I speak German, but only after being here 7 years. Are you seriously taking the side that a new immigrant in the country should be able to navigate a complicated immigration and registration process, documents and interviews in German? It’s

I don’t think the city is full, just poorly run. The rest of your comment I agree with though.

I listened to a podcast with one of the people involved in leading the unionisation, it sounded like the company was already in bad shape before that point. During the process, they also had contact with other Sapporo owned breweries in Jap

If mobile is integral to this business then go native and launch with whichever platform makes sense first, push as much logic to the server as you can or write some shared Kotlin Multiplatform or Rust components. Otherwise I’d start with a

You end up pricing people out of the best possible education unless you regulate heavily, at which point you may as well have state-run education.

UniFFI is pretty amazing productivity-wise for sharing common components across clients and teams. I haven’t really figured out the WASM side yet though or if it’s even really feasible.
