It’s a unit test framework though, not a suite of containerization software and services. Maintained mostly by one person for years.

Right. Probably not the original plan, but as people have pointed out, the Vision Pro has landed as essentially a dev kit. What’s the point of dev kit 2 when there still aren’t a lot of regular users? (Seems tough though. Even if you can ke

That only makes sense if the projects are unrelated... separate budget, different engineers, managers, executives, separate marketing teams, even separate suppliers and supply chains. Obviously, they are related.

The headline leaves out the most important part: "... to Focus on a Cheaper Model". Surely, the right move. I can mostly believe VR headsets will catch on, but not at the price of the current Vision Pro. There's a chicken and

I wouldn’t call the ecosystem of svelte small. Since it adheres to HTML and javascript so closely, the effective ecosystem is pretty much the things supporting plain javascript and plain HTML, which is a lot of things. (Though two years ago

Incompetence isn’t a root cause though. You have to go deeper… why were the people involved in the project incompetent? If you find a project was held back by infighting, siloed groups, major shifts in direction or key people leaving, kindn

Honestly, I think it’s a mistake to try to retroactively impose a technical distinction between two words that have been synonyms for quite a while. The intent is probably to clarify and communicate better. But with that word choice you end

A couple things... First, git doesn't especially solve problems that CS majors have until they are near the end of their courses. The need to manage collaboration, organization, and change in a code base is trivial until pretty late in

I'm just never going to understand why you'd want to write your HTML in something unlike HTML (Python in this case). Then you need to know the thing that isn't like HTML, plus HTML, plus the details of how the other thing is

The title seems a little misleading… the article is largely about how unclear the refund process is to customers. Clearly Spotify sees Car Thing as a mistake. That’s ok, mistakes happen. But they should really be working to make sure custom

People really tie their brains in knots trying to justify iPad OS. It's terribly limited -- a lot of the software people use regularly cannot run on it, and it also does not allow various typical workflows. > so maybe it should be a

Sure, I get the argument. But I really don't think we can count on all the related .dlls/COM objects to keep getting support after what is probably their main interface is killed off. It just doesn't make sense to kill off ju

Isn't there are rather obvious solution to this "problem"? When we need to be clear, let's call authentication and authorization... authentication and authorization.

I like my iPad a lot, and use it every day. But I'll probably never buy another. The OS is just too limiting. Perhaps they'll eventually decide to let them run MacOS? (Seems like a no-brainer, at least when a keyboard case is in-u
