What's inside that function is Unicode case folding and non-deterministic collation, such as ICU, or its equivalent. See https://icu.unicode.org

An email falsehood surprised me recently: I thought a case-insensitive email address can be compared by using pseudocode `lower(x)`. But that's false. An email system that guarantees case-insensitive email addresses can still fail duri

Congratulations and great idea! What's your roadmap or appetite for pay-for-features? For example, what would be involved in hiring your team to improve a specific area or two?

SwiftUI is a big opportunity that Apple's not investing enough in, IMHO. It's good tech, and the reactive approach is excellent for many typical view-based needs, but at the same time the docs are terribly lacking at how to handle

You're correct, moving the folder can expose a poorly written tool, meaning a tool that isn't following the symlink and isn't using XDG_CONFIG_HOME. To me, it's an advantage to surface the latent problems, so I can messa

The #1 area to improve IMHO is enabling people to get to know the company and team in depth ahead of time. One way that works well is for companies to try using techniques of college recruiting, because the level of commitment has parallels

Superb project writeup IMHO and a great showcase of Framework flexability. And if the Framework team is reading this post, I would pay you all money for an official Framework tablet.

"We don't do that here" is way to shut down communication. For team leadership, it's much better to open up communication, and create team practices called ways-of-working. Team values are big-idea statements of what tea

Async does have to be hard, sometimes, at least right now. Iterators, closures, selects, and more are IMHO hard, or absent, or not intuitive. I know these are being worked on-- thank you to the language developers.

Rust: Warp. I like Warp because it's akin to a layer on top of Hyper (for HTTP) and Tokio (for async), and can go down into these deeper layers as you wish. I'm using Warp now because I'm trying all the Rust web frameworks. I
