Yeah. Those are the key combos for editing text, especially on a Mac. If an app does not support them, it's going to be some weird cross platform monstrosity and you're better off if you find a competitor.

The French managed to solve the problem of royalty titles, though.

Sounds like a great market opportunity then!

Background: I spend most of my time in Swift but do work in Kotlin too. Occasionally some Rust. Swift and Kotlin are in many ways similar, but I find Swift to be a bit nicer in almost every respect. Swift has more powerful generics, tuples,

Xcode has its flaws but mostly it's pretty great to work in. With it available for the vast majority of current Swift programmers, it's a hard market to break into.

Rust is pretty often chosen also in places where performance is not that critical. It has a good ecosystem, a good type system, native builds and great performace. Those factors make it a good choice in places where you'd be just fine

Another related tip for Mac: if you are using Yoink — and you totally should be — you can add files to to it from shell with `open -a Yoink filename`. I have a shell function called `yo` for it.

Depends on the client, I think. Toot! for iOS visualizes threads like this and at least it's pretty clear: https://apps.apple.com/fi/app/toot/id1229021451

I switched to Mac full time when I got frustrated with my Linux desktop having (far) worse support for Emacs keybindings than my work Mac. There was a certain amount of irony in it.

I cringe every time I see the second E. That weirdly mangled serif just rubs me the wrong way. The old logo was honestly a bit messy, too, though.

Presumably the people at OUP do care, because they actually paid for it. That's the author's point: if you are trying to signal something with a rebrand, how about putting the money into the actual thing instead of going through a

You don't need to own a plane so you can fly a couple of times a year. You don't need to own dinosaur juice fueled car so you can drive an uncomfortably long distance in one leg a couple of times a year. A completely reasonable op

That would be awkward with their talk of renewables and recycling. "Wireless" charging loses a ton of efficiency compared to wired.

There are levels to trustworthiness. I mostly trust my ISP enough to not bother with VPN at home, but when I'm traveling I'll take my VPN provider over a hotel WiFi any day.

Even if you ignore the COVID and supply chain problems — which I’d argue are pretty OK reasons for schedule slippage — they never were that clear from what point you should count the two years: the announcement or the first availability of

They pre-announced the previous Mac Pro at WWDC 2019, but even that was only available in December, I think. Before that, they previewed the previous Mac Pro in 2013. So, yeah. No harm in hoping but it's really rare for them to actuall

It is not happening on Russia's border, it is happening in Ukraine. And "someone" already escalated too far when they invaded Ukraine.

There's plenty of reds with sugar in them. Your typical Italian will have something around 4–7 g per liter in it. First four Italian reds I checked on Alko's (Finnish booze monopoly) website, priced 14–37 €: 2, 12, 11, 3 g/l.

Well, for example, some people like to spend time on websites that are orange.

That helps when you are writing the code. It's less helpful when you are modifying a function being called from all over the code base. Arguably smart enough refactoring tools will help, but smart enough compilers have been doing wonde

I'm sure it's great for someone who uses multiple platforms. But if you use only one platform, the apps will feel off. As for performance: it's not horrible, but the memory usage is.

It may be a win for some users. I can’t see how switching my perfectly fine, frequently updated native app for a memory hogging web browser wrapper is a win for me. I’m actively looking for alternatives now.

How many animals are we talking about in a scenario where all the animals were being used for crop/grazing rotation? I've heard about this and it sounds good to me, but without having looked into it at all, it sounds to me like so

I'd love to use it for Objective-C too. I work on a mixed language SDK and right now use Jazzy which is fine but I think there's a realistic chance DocC will lead to Jazzy being abandoned sooner than we can get rid of all the Obje

Also: Xcode has been able to parse and display the Markdown documentation comments in Swift code for years. It's really nice! Doesn't mean DocC isn't worthwhile, but at least the PSOTU and Meet DocC presentation seemed to not

Yes, absolutely! I think there's plenty of blame to go around. But I see all too often flippant takes like "20 companies cause (a large X)% of greenhouse gas emissions" which just completely ignores demand.
