The question seems to have been interpreted as preparing for a mad max like scenario for some people.

I hadn't been on reddit for a really long time (way before all this started) and I logged in yesterday and was pretty surprised by how much war glorification was dominating the popular page and the simplistic narrative being pushed.

I'm not sure how they meant it in this particular context but IMO good scroll performance with a lot of media on the page can be quite tricky to do on the web and a bit easier on iOS. This might be better these days than it was when I

That goes without saying doesn’t it?

The app is written in Swift, they could pretty easily use a webview to reuse some of their existing frontend without bringing in a framework.

Same with anything to do with ops or deployment - better to hide that knowledge.

Depending on how old you are you might just need to wait a few years and nature will do the rest.

Doing a few push ups while compiling or CI is running is a great hack - aside from the fitness my back, shoulder and neck issues went away.

Not an expert but I get the impression that demonstrating some level of MRR is more important than it used to be for securing fundraising and lets you negotiate a better deal. So it would make sense to launch an early version asap and start

Fair enough, I chose to ignore the Auto Layout comment, I was more responding to the implied point of the web being networked-first and immediately shareable unlike desktop (again different story on mobile). The overall point I was trying t

Yeah that’s all true but we lost quite a lot in the transition too.

For business software, for consumer software it largely didn’t or was heavily pirated. Apple introduced a purely consumer OS and got consumers used to the idea of paying for software. It didn’t last though, the larger trend was to push the

Keep your 20k for now. Focus on honing and studying marketing and sales skills, seek out an audience for your app(s) and figure out how to reach them consistently. Maybe start with a very, very small app you can work on while keeping your d

“Phase out” without a timeframe or plan sounds a lot like “Do nothing”.

As far as I understand gas heating hasn’t been electrified so it’s difficult to replace it with renewables or nuclear quickly. Keeping the plants on might take some pressure off existing gas supplies though they’re very old and the process

These massive companies also seem to bake every possible localization on the planet into the app rather than loading them on demand so that users can start using the app immediately. It would help if Apple provided a mechanism to bundle spe

Agree, I'm also tired of this. Some variation of this comment has appeared on every story here related to Germany's energy situation for the last few years.
