I’m building an app in Objective-C. It is shares code on Mac, iOS and server and I’ve done it with the express purpose of learning every single little bit of the stack. (In part, to discover why Smalltalk didn’t make it.) I just finished a

I love in person events. Online events give me loads of fatigue. In-person events energize me. The backroom conversations are why they’re great. At the beginning I was always into the speakers. Later I realized they were really a gimmick to

Totally agree with you that raising the price won’t solve the problem. I do have to disagree with you on one point: that there are people who are not corrput themselves who function well within the system. Corruption begins with good inten

My font size is set to a fairly large size. For many apps, I have no idea what to click on because no one follows the autolayout. Some (see Evernote) are so bad that I can’t even click the sign in button because the touch target seems to be

Great sentence!!! > I believe the discussion should rather focus on the role of the law in the public life This is exactly my concern. This flies over most people’s head. During the Barret confirmation process I became very interested in

Yes. I agree with you. Much better to steer the ship and never hit the iceberg. Some situations are like a jiu-jitsu match where an opponent can pin you down. In a subset of these situations and unlike in a jiu-jitsu match—you can’t tap out

Better to sing on a sinking ship than to die frustrated, angry and victimized. There is grace in fighting against impending doom. Life can be measured by how we approach things. Never lose hope. :)

What are the soups? Both Google and DuckDuckGo give me no results so an example would be appreciated. (Hope I'm not caught up in a prototype joke :)

This guy is giving you the best advice. They are considering the fact that you already know Objective-C. One thing: I use Objective-C and I really like it. I don’t feel the same way about C++. If you feel the same way, honor the feeling. St

Will take a look at it. At this point, the trick to creating a sizable git alternative I think is to Trojan horse coding into a new realm with “no-code” like apps. One of my favorites is Fossil by Richard Hipp. I wonder what your thoughts o

Why is everyone talking about allowing third-party app stores and not side-loaded apps?

Nope. Not saying that. For the high tech case...in Spain, an employer can’t provide stock options to employees. The Silicon Valley case where the first few dozen employees become millionaires is not an option in Spain. For low-level employe

You’re clearly not from a Latin American country. I am both Latin American and European. The experience in Latin America is that you can’t make it no matter how hard you try. So much paperwork. And you have to pre-pay taxes! (Anticipos) I

This is so poetic. What a beautiful way to remember him. Alan Kay once said that those who began to talk about objects in anthropomorphic terms got object oriented programming. Your “code” now reveals to me the cycle of life in all that I t

Two years ago I started writing an app in Swift. After a two year sabbatical, this was going to be my first app. When using Swift, the compiler was painstakingly slow. Because of that, I tried Objective-C and it is so clear to me that I lov

TCL (pronounced Tickl, if you’re still still saying T-C-L) is one of my absolute faves. Using TK from the command line is so easy / fast. And...as a language, it really helps to teach you important concepts. SQLite and Redis both emerg

Ooh. I’m so out of touch I didn’t even know what MUSL really is. I was wondering whether there was something different than the standard library which made C a joy. Things that people mention as being faster are non-null terminated string l

I love Objective-C. Because that of that, I find myself using some C once in a while and I like it. What should I be using instead of libc? Musl? PS — I also use it on Linux via GNUstep. I like it that much. :)

Citizens United is a great case to read in this context. Only approved organizations could publish on the election after a certain date. We are soaking the propaganda and we don’t know it.

Facebook is not the same as free speech. Facebook has an algorithm which highlights outrageous and livid claims. These often tend to be false. Your Facebook feed is curated to look like this—something a “traditional” publisher can’t do beca

To me, it feels entirely different if you—as a user are aware of what is popular because you have chosen to see it ranked as so. Will it be gamed? Yes. But you might be able to as a user suspect that people are trying to game the system wit

How I would change Section 230? An unedited feed keeps you immune from editorial choices. You can allow a user to sort by likes, retweets or time. Anything else is considered publishing. One more thing. We can in fact read the things we wan

Not a minor nit: in Objective-C, keyword arguments are ordered. Every function call reads like a sentence and the keyword argument itself can be something phrase like: -onStream:writeObject:withKey:;
