The Google Bard frontend currently does this with searches and highlights its own "mistakes" if it finds them, or presents evidence if it doesn't. I presume they'd have to show that it's effective in this case.

It's likely pretty far from a 1:1 port, you'll be rearchitecting a lot of what you are writing. It's unavoidable due to the way Rust guarantees memory safety.

Most of the people on this site have either worked for Apple before or hold Apple stock. Regulation is directly reaching into their pockets. Also obvious by how this post is already on 14th place after 2 hours, with more than 200 votes. (Ed

Garry has publicly expressed regret over choosing Source 2 for this reason, but they might be in too deep now. Generally, the tooling is really great, so I guess that's the primary benefit.

You're being unrealistic. The app not opening in a standalone window is a major change to the intended experience, and makes what can be, and was in a lot of cases, an experience equal to that of a native app no better than a web page

Being deceptive about Git's shortcomings is going to raise eyebrows with anyone seriously evaluating your solution, which is already going to raise eyebrows because it's not free software. Most studios will try to avoid locking th

In my opinion, all of this falls apart once you consider that Apple has sabotaged the mobile web as an application platform basically since the inception of the iPhone. You actually just don't have a choice if you want to reach that au

Yes, but those games contain scripting languages, like Lua for Grim/Escape from Monkey Island. That isn't shipped with the app, so it technically violates the rule. Hope they keep it up though, or if not, hope they get their ass k

I doubt it. If you've ever worked on a console game, you'll know that these requirements are no joke - they're pretty hard to consistently comply with, and using APIs from the manufacturer is often much much easier than to do

This is not unusual in Microsoft-land. If a tech stack or version is very widely adopted or heavily revamped in a new version, they will often support that old version for a very long time - see Windows 7.
