I work for a major bank in Canada; we are one of the largest companies in Canada, and we use storyboards. We are very serious about the work we do. We are also working on SwiftUI stuff as well.

I’m baffled as to how this has been so downvoted. It’s just a fact. Been using SwiftUI for two-some years and while I use it for prototyping, when I actually want to get ‘real’ things done, I go back to UIKit quick as a bolt of lightning.

That’s missing the forest for the trees. The outrage here is that they violated our basic rights as Women by suddenly overturning a law with no warning or input from citizens. The further outrage is that they’re actually being revolting eno

Thank you for a considerate, well-thought-out response. I know people are downvoting me because they’re from the USA and they’re likely not ready for the truth. They can choose to be ignorant. I can pretty much guarantee no woman I know wou

>> We need a constitutional amendment guaranteeing women's rights. Sounds great - but would that matter? Roe vs. Wade showed that laws made and ‘democratic’ decisions settled upon in the USA can be reversed with no warning, no vo

EDIT: I’m a victim of rape, and my opinions expressed are largely from that of a woman who has been sexually assaulted. Before you downvote me because you might disagree, or you might live in the USA and not like that I’m speaking negativel

Unfortunately, the art direction is literally borderline offensive to those who grew up with the game; and is just, subjectively, brutally ugly. It’s difficult to fake a positive response when you take something with such charm and turn it

I dunno; minus the lack of true multitasking (which the iPhone, too; originally lacked), OG PalmOS got really close, especially for the time. By the time we got the HandSpring with it's removable/exchangeable extensions like GPS

Weird take; I wonder what an alternate universe where the Jaguar didn’t rival the Saturn in terms of difficulty to develop for would look like. I’m aware this wouldn’t have solved the other issues - such as the desperate need for a ‘Killer

Isn’t Zig…not really production-ready? I was under the impression it was still a bit of an experiment. I’m aware of people using Rust in production on large-scale systems, but not Zig.

That anyone even considered this is abhorrent and disturbing. That several individuals actually worked together on it is just beyond sickening. Wow. Words fail me.

This is what we call a 'tenuous' connection, rather than a direct connection. It is not a result of the intention behind the art , which is the message. 'Run the Jewels' is objectively political music. 'Pussy Riot&

What the hell is political about some random instrumental lofi track? To claim no art can be apolitical indicates either your field of view of art is massively limited in scope or that you just haven’t experienced enough art.

Simply watching ‘Dragon’s Den’ will reveal how ludicrously passionate people are about some of the worst ideas. I don’t really agree with the article, though. If it’s not achieving the results you want, it doesn’t inherently mean it’s a b

The problem is that because they can't be upgraded, they are no longer 'perfectly good'. I recently was donated a 2010 MacBook Air with 4GB of RAM, and a paltry 128GB SSD. What the hell is anyone supposed to do with that?!

Thank you so much for this in-depth explanation. I understood that MPEG-4 had something to do with DivX, but could never understand why 'regular' media players couldn't interpret the files. This explains it!

Depending the sensor or array of sensors, cameras arguably see more of the world 'how it is' than humans are capable of. Night Vision, Heat Maps, LIDAR, and Telescopic lenses can capture more of the world 'as it is' than

Still frames of UE5 are certainly getting there. (Put it in motion, and that's a different story for sure...)

People who think AR/VR is a 'fad', won't last; etc - really miss out on the potential for simulation and work in legitimate scientific and research fields. Screw games, I'm more interested in stuff like VR/AR

DivX - wow , that brings back memories of torrenting movies in the mid-00’s. It really was the only way to get a balance of decent video quality with a reasonable (usually 700MB or less, for CD-video purposes) file size. My computer was

I produce music. Bluetooth is an instant no-go. Yes, at home I use a DAC with two headphone jacks. But on the go, I don’t want to have to carry a USB to headphone converter.

The commenter explained why. (they mentioned the iPhone specifically; this may be the case moreso on there, I don’t follow Android) It’s because there is a metric shitton of software that goes into the camera app itself, and access to the

Why is this okay? I wouldn’t download , e.g.; a video game that would ask for my contacts or location. Why should I have to download and wait for the app to install before I know what permissions it’s asking for? Furthermore - what’s the p

There were and are a surprising number of people such as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle who studied and practiced an actual thing called ‘Magick’. I have yet to see any honest-to-God evidence of such a thing. Just because whom you believe may be cr
