You say this like it is not a big deal, I trust Apple much more than I trust Meta with my messages. Apple has made privacy a cornerstone of their sales pitch, Meta not so much. N=2 is too many.

Aha that is interesting I wasn’t aware of this difference. Pushing the layer down to lower level controls does seem like it would help with this but perhaps at the cost of ui consistency on the platforms? Either way thanks for the link, I’l

I think the core problem any cross platform solution is going to face is that maintaining a compatibility layer between 2+ proprietary OS’s* is a recipe for a bad time. It is why these projects need to be supported by a massive tech company

Awesome thanks a ton for the details, very helpful. I certainly need to get a fair bit better at Spanish before I embark on anything similar. And having taken a few fairly short hikes in Colombia in the heat I can definitely see heat stroke

Bold trip nonetheless! If you have some time to write up this experience and how you planned in more detail, I would definitely appreciate reading it and I am sure others would too. I am hoping to do some more travel like this in South and

i agree it is an enforcement issue but the line i have heard is enforcement is lacking bc police officers think the convictions won’t happen on the other end so there is no point in them making the arrests in the first place. No idea if tha

IMO tactility was sacrificed in favor of versatility because we don't have a material that is both tactile and versatile and simulating such a thing is hard. And IMO it was a good tradeoff to make, instead of a tactile keyboard you hav

I have only read their books on iOS dev but have had good experiences with Big Nerd Ranch books: https://www.amazon.com/Cocoa-Programming-OS-Ranch-Guides/dp/... Ray Wenderlich tutorials are also iOS biased but hav

honestly if you are doing native development and using the iOS/macOS tooling directly it is not that different than this. You basically have options, xibs and nibs like in this blog now have a new friend Storyboards that encompasses mu

it isn't just you, I've been doing iOS development for the last few years which generally gets preference for docs these days but I have still found over the years even if most things have documentation 1) it is pretty difficult t

Does any company or person do privacy audits of these smart home devices? At the very least doesn't seem difficult to sniff packets sent out on the home network? Seems like it is generally accepted that these things are a privacy night

Just start it anyway, odds are you will get ideas of how to differentiate or unlock a whole new problem you hadn't considered along the way

Society has its own moderation for public discourse, ie laws, social norms, and accountability by virtue of being exposed in public to name a few. So no an unmoderated medium is not a representation of society or at least not an accurate on

It sucks that criminals get away with this crap all the time and I am sorry that happened to you but do you really think releasing videos of alleged criminals to the public is a good idea? https://www.businessinsider.com/red

Funnily enough I started working on something similar in Uni as a class project and went embarrassingly far before realizing all the functionality I was building already existed in any of the major calendar apps. There should be a name for

Can someone give me a hint as to why: send people who might give you a birthday present a wishlist, is on this list? it seems completely opposed to the idea of minimalism and also seems like a generally kind of obnoxious thing to do.
