Native iOS apps that use material design don't feel sluggish or laggy.

It looks fine, depending on your taste anyway, but there's noticeable scrolling lag and animations are stuttery the first time they play. Feels sluggish in general.

The low-codeness is certainly impressive. Judging from the sample app though, Flutter still has a long way to go in terms of native look-and-feel (on iOS at least).

Isn't that just... optimizing for space?

> If someone can solve hard LeetCode problems why would they join Startups? Uh, what lol? Is this really what it's like to have HN brain? Not everyone in the tech industry is just working their way up to a FAANG.

I don't think it's unreasonable to expect someone applying for an engineering role to know the technical terminology of their field. Especially if they've been "programming for many years" as this person has.

I think cutting off an interview is fine if it's clear that it's not going to work out. It saves everyone's time. Maybe he could have been less rude about it.

I think you're referring to automatic switching, which is a much newer feature. That indeed is broken iOS to macOS. But the instantaneous switching works fine in my experience and has since the original AirPods.

That's what you literally said, but why bring it up?

Could you explain what point you're trying to make?

Reminds me of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2prsYbV1TkM from Silicon Valley. I imagine the real-world experience will be pretty similar for a long time.

Casual sexism this isn't. Plenty of people switch between he and she as defaults.

There's an option in Settings to use attention-aware features, like dimming the screen faster if you're not paying attention. I imagine disabling that feature would turn this off.

You can easily tell whether someone is smiling or not underneath a mask, and I think most people have learned to "smile with their eyes" to make it even more obvious. It's not that big a deal.

They absolutely can. They're obviously limited by passenger comfort as the other commenter said, but the difference between an Acela and a Northeast Regional in acceleration speed is obvious.

Is that a joke? Not every train stops at every station. And an advantage of high speed trains is they can accelerate very quickly.

Why? Apple makes everything from the hardware up to the apps on the homescreen. Why do you trust the hardware, the kernel, and the OS, but not the "apps", when all are made by the same organization? They're the same as any ot

With all due respect, if you're not familiar with the concept of voice in linguistics (which has a particular technical definition, and makes no sense to apply to a purely adverbial phrase like "surprisingly" or "to our

I guarantee you the product manager for Clips probably just made a lot of noise about trying to reduce onboarding friction as much as possible, and their manager talked to someone else's manager and got that entitlement. I agree it&#x2

The fact that "anyone can add a feature" doesn't excuse the lack of a feature existing _right now_, especially considering (as other commenters point out) accessibility is very difficult to retrofit. Not to mention, accessibi

What's the difference between that and the standard version distributed by Apple? They seem the same -- why is one more reliable for backups?

Fair enough. Otherwise I think we're on the same page.

> You can take steps to stop bad men without being an executive. You just spent the previous sentences explaining how women couldn’t possibly be complicit because they’re not on boards. But now anyone can be complicit?
