The comment you are replying to was focusing more on the low-level features of Swift for systems programming (hence comparing it to systems languages). Kotlin is cool but it is not a system programming language and the native code compilati

The question is why did the author feel compelled to bring up this bizarre remark about noses twice in the article, it’s rather out of the blue and several of us in this thread found it odd. It’s just a little strange. Curious, is all.

I was not triggered, merely curious. It caught my eye. Several other people in this thread also noticed it as a bit strange. Doesn’t mean any of us were “triggered” by it.

Ridiculous accusation. And note several others in thread had a similar curiosity about the remark.

The other comments in this thread about the recovery aren’t as optimistic as you are. It seems there is significant damage and it takes quite a long time to recover, if it does.

I have that same phone and have been using it now for six years, and according to the battery health in the settings, the battery is still in good shape, there’s no notice of it being degraded.

You are saying that the standard specifies that the standard file system features themselves do not work?

There’s a place near where my parents live in Mexico that is experimenting with this stuff. Unfortunately, hasn’t seemed to reach southern Belgium! But then again, I’ve been trying to quit smoking.

In some ways, you’re not wrong. In other ways, there’s been extremely broad support for some major new features in the language in recent years, like coroutines and concepts.

They are still a long way from the features of enums in Swift.

We’re digressing to get way off the whole point of the comment, but to address your point, actually piano design has been an area of great innovation over the centuries, with different companies doing it in considerably different ways.

Yes, I know, but that’s irrelevant. You can replace the word piano in my comment with harpsichord if it makes you happy.

That might have been true once, but I don't think that's really true any more. Most users are not awed by their iPhone experience as they were ten years ago. Everyone realizes that iOS and Android are essentially identical for mos

On mobile devices, Apple’s Calculator app has always been one of the most frustrating apps I’ve ever used, and I’m surprised it’s a stock app by the company itself. If you press buttons quickly, like you would a normal calculator, many of t

I’ve never used this library before, but I’m very interested to see some examples of its cross-platform GPU compute abilities, if I understand from the link thread that they are now available. Does anyone have a suggestion on where to get s

Hi, thanks for the response. It’s not actually rendering using native browser features, is it? I think that’s the reason. For example, on mobile, in which it also has problems for me in addition to the laptop, if I do a pinch zoom on the we
