   People like you are an extreme minority. Most people just want a phone that works and that doesn’t get ‘viruses’. iOS accomplishes that; macOS does not.

   Doesn’t this whole thing hinge on the DMA not allowing them to favour webkit like that?

   I like “handle”. It’s short and conveys some mutability.

   This comment is very compelling. Thank-you for opening my mind a bit.

   I also have grown more attuned to the fact that humans are just another animal, but in practice this has put me more at ease with eating meat as we are omnivorous predators in the food chain. I am much more aligned, however, with sustainabl

   I take your point but you don’t explain how you came to be intimately familiar with those technologies in the first place. Applied consistently, this logic would seem to preclude becoming familiar with anything.

    Apple makes a pretty distinct set of tradeoffs relative to the others you mention. Yes there’s growing overlap as they focus more on services, but they do make generally principled decisions around quality and consistency of industrial desi

    Not much of a sense of humour around work, the Germans.

    The plane is two months old and experienced an airframe failure. The only way this is on Alaska is if they backed a truck into it.

    This isn’t really accurate in my experience. I’ve been using it on several projects large and small for some time now and can only recall one time autofix introduced an issue of any sort and that was many versions ago. It will also handle c

    What would this look like in use? A permission dialog for every interaction? If you bury the user in those, it doesn’t take long before they just mindlessly smash buttons to make the pain stop. The infosec community never read The Boy Who C

    It looks like every project by default has a standing token with read privileges. It never expires and its not opt-in. Unless I’m missing something, that seems ridiculous.

    If you have taken to saying ‘you would hit your girlfriend’ just to shut down that conversation, that is bordering on deranged.

    This brand of narcissistic, pervasive pessimism is why I don’t hang out with many programmers.

    More like they’re a DNS service that offers a registrar as a convenience.

    I think what he’s trying to say is that to the user of the system, the front end is the system. To a non-engineer its just an app and nobody knows or cares what end goes where.

    I think this gets at a logical algorithmic improvement. I assume they use aggregate location data for things like real-time traffic. There’s no need for these alerts to trigger if there is a critical mass of iPhones near the ‘incident’.

    I think iOS now has per-app permissions/notifications around clipboard reads.

    They provide an excellent, consistent service at global scale that no competitor even comes close to matching. They are a fantastic operator from the customer’s vantage point.

    I’m not sure basic transportation is unnecessary. Avoiding cars because they can crash is not realistic.
