The problem with Reddit as a business is that they have the least profitable users of any social platform. So one would have to build a backend, incentive the app makers to switch, get advertisers and do it all more cost efficiently than Re

The difference is that winforms basically had one way to do everything which expedited development because it skipped all of the infinite number of stupid small decisions and libraries that must be cobbled together in a typical SPA.

That and a lot of engineers are genuinely excited to build their own workflow engine - whether they call it that or not - because it’s complicated and it feels like they just discovered a brand new and powerful abstraction. Tears follow whe

This website is pretty bad in terms of pitching the product. On a Macbook Pro, there is a giant black bar with nothing but the headline, which is then repeated in the video. The video itself tells me nothing about how it can improve an ente
