Eh, if it makes you feel better it's probably not going to happen. PCs and Macs won't become any less tinkerable. Gatekeeper can be turned off with a single terminal command, iPhones and iPads are becoming more tinkerable, not l

Yep. This is basic data model design.

I'm not a linux kernel maintainer but it seems like the maintainers all agree it's extremely unlikely a static analyzer could be so wrong in so many different ways.

If you have an iPhone or iPad, have you played around with Siri shortcuts at all? You can essentially create voice-operated scripts that can perform chains of actions on your phone. It's limited, but not as limited as you'd think.

Do you honestly believe this is something only men do? You don’t think there’s even a chance that maybe the existence of the “mainsplaining” concept is self-reinforcing, since every instance of a man doing it will be further evidence it exi

Can you link a dictionary definition for either of those words, please?

So no counter argument then?

You’re missing the forest for the trees. The post is about the philosophy of engineering safety, not what the best analogy is.

By Siri you don’t actually mean Siri, but the accessibility voice controls right? Like VoiceOver or Voice Control? Siri is not an accessibility tool so if you were trying to use it as one it could explain your problems.

That's gotta be a joke?

The Apple issue was not a case of forgetting to renew a certificate, certain 3rd party apps just weren't handling the upgrade correctly. So maybe not quite as easy to find examples after all.

Are you arguing that the internal workings of a company can't be visible at all to outsiders? Or that there's no correlation between the rate of public, easily preventable failures and technical incompetence? Or just that it'

The point of syncing is that you leave it overnight. It’s simply not designed for syncing while you wait. The settings app makes this clear too. Moreover, how often are you syncing a totally different musical catalog to your watch? It sound

The ignorance on HN always astounds me. Not everyone is a young software engineer making $100k who can move anywhere they want. You realize there are people in this country who can barely afford food, right? Let alone picking up and moving

Or maybe just the particular companies you work for. At many companies I've worked for, and many others I haven't, drinking with coworkers happens often enough that many they have regular official happy hours at bars.

How much diverged is this code from WebKit? 20 years ago Blink didn't even exist, right?

There's a great deal of cases where Apple went out of their way to help out 3rd parties with compatibility, including quite a few cases with the M1 Macs themselves. Is your comment based on anything or just typical HN "Apple = evi

I don't know. I have one spare left — when that's gone I'm toast. I think I remember reading something about a logitech keyboard with similar key travel, but that was years ago and I don't remember the model.

It's something about the way your original was worded. I think if you had written only the first sentence, the joke would have been clearer.

As others have mentioned in this thread, "right" and "left" are all relative. From my point of view, a neoliberal like Biden is right-of-center by any reasonable definition of "right" and "left", but

Many people would consider the "leftist version of identity politics" to be an oxymoron.

Wouldn't feel great, but what in the article gave you the idea they're doing that?

I know others have mentioned this but to make it explicit: the idea that the wind turbines are responsible for the outages is both false, and being widely spread intentionally to increase public distrust of renewable energy. I'm not su

What makes it broken, out of curiosity? Is there a spec anywhere that suggests that behavior is incorrect? Or is it just because it's not what Chrome does?

Just a heads-up that at the end of that support doc, it says the API is only available for managed devices on iOS.
