Oni was such a great game, I'm really bummed to hear Take-Two isn't interested in figuring out the IP rights.

Transparency mode is great. That's what I normally use, and then only switch to quiet mode when I'm in a particularly noisy environment such as on the subway.

Oh wow you're right, the "stuffed ears" feeling is gone! This is great! I've been using transparency mode for a while so I didn't even notice.

Game stores (e.g. consoles) always took at least 30%. Someone else already said they think Valve took (takes?) 30%. Carriers probably took more.
786.
by lilyball 7y ago
Something odd about this argument is the fact that 30% is pretty much an industry standard. Apple isn't jacking up the price.

I believe the control is based on which device you plug the cable into first, except it's impossible to remember and confusing.

by lilyball 7y ago
Also this way you can't plug two extension cables into each other, because the cable didn't have the notch, only the lug.

Why would you assume that? It's in Apple's interests to have no way at all to access a locked phone without the passcode. The best they can do is wipe the thing.

I think Apple values the user perception that Google is the best search engine. Note how they used Bing for Siri and Spotlight search (and they've been largely, if not entirely, replacing that with Siri Knowledge instead).

I haven't checked in a while but in the past it was fairly reliably 10 minutes. In any case, there's a property `UIApplication.backgroundTimeRemaining` that tells you how long you have, so you can use that to calculate the appropr

Can't you just create a new developer account for the non-profit and transfer the app between accounts? I'm sure the process for transferring the app isn't trivial, but it's certainly something that's been done many

I'm pretty sure before iOS 13 came out there was no option to remove bluetooth. So any apps that haven't updated to the newer SDK will still be requesting bluetooth access.

In my experience, the OS prompts you less and less frequently if you keep approving it. I have one app I give background access for and at this point I'm getting maybe one prompt per month.

Absent memory pressure, apps can stay open for up to 10 minutes in the background. The correct solution here is for the app to request background processing and to schedule a local notification in 9 minutes saying that the app is about to r

A lot of apps ask for Bluetooth because Google Chromecast wanted it. I think Google put out a Chromecast framework update to fix this, though I'm not positive.

I don't know if you'll get them at all for apps where you said "only while using". They're intended for apps that use your location in the background. The OS just prompts you at some point to make sure you want to k

Not only do drivers see your name, but I believe when you do a Shared Lyft, other riders also see your first name. And customer support will see your name as well. In general, just because someone is providing a service to you (e.g. driving

I'm surprised the gitlab page has no issues, and the Nota.cabal file still points to what appears to be a stale github repo.
801.
by lilyball 7y ago
Looks like something broke and the page is now a single messy line with a <monodraw> tag in the source.

by lilyball 7y ago
This looks very neat, but why does the project have zero tags or releases? I also notice the GitLab instance isn't even accessible over https.

It's actually not controversial at all among the people actually impacted by it. It's only "controversial" in that a lot of people are transphobic and are offended that trans people are allowed access to gender-affirmi

It is, which is why you want to be conservative. If the duplicated code is obviously supposed to be identical, then predicting the future should be trivial. If it's not obvious, then it's a question of "can I conceive of a re

I have 2 rules I use when determining whether to duplicate code or to refactor: 1. How many duplications are there? If the code is duplicated once, that's fine. If it's duplicated twice (so 3 instances of it), then it's time

My assumption is the content store can only grow, but any executable produced from it would only contain live code.

Inko's page looks almost exactly like rust-lang.org used to look like in the past, before Rust rebranded their site for marketing reasons.

The article didn't explain what a GTFS feed was, and my first thought was it's a "Get The Fuck Somewhere feed". Turns out it's General Transit Feed Specification.

I've been using my operators for a long time without a problem. I think the secret is the fact that I'm using custom operators that have no other overloads, which avoids the combinatorial type system explosion during evaluation. T
