Wow! Great respect to how you've set up your publishing that way! I don't build anything for the Apple ecosystem, and haven't since around 2015, and my biggest fear was always some dreaded forced update (or new app store ja

This is really interesting. I've worked and lived alongside Java since, like, becoming extremely proficient in AS3/ECMA5(ish) and understanding the low-level quirks of that VM, but I never dealt in Java. What's funny to me is

I'd have to check em, it was just a guess, but I have two airs from the last decade (2009 and 2015 I think) with their original operating systems and I think one is around 10.4 and the other 10.10ish. Maybe I misunderstood your questio

Yeah... my solution for the last 3 decades (with a grain of salt) has been to buy the most expensive decked out Apple laptop every 6 years and never, ever update the OS. This is in line with my philosophy about shoes: I only own 5 copies of

When it's your own codebase that you know intimately, you obviously don't want it polluted, and you want to continue to understand everything that's there. For rewriting things you understand perfectly, or porting code to dif

This is 1/10,000th of the bile that Qatar churns out with their state propaganda wing every day. Not to mention their brigades on Wikipedia and Reddit. The only surprising thing here is that Israel is so far behind in the game. There i

Don't flatter yourself. You're not the one keeping it around. But your comment illustrates why Israel needs to exist and will continue to exist.

The US still hasn't experienced a military coup in the 250 years of its existence. The form a military coup would take in this country would not be a coup against the elected executive branch, it would be a runaway executive branch its

Fair enough, I guess if you want access to your entire lifetime photo collection through your phone that makes sense. As far as backups - I mean, that's just a general question of keeping your laptop backed up. I use Arq (highly recomm

It's also not hard to just connect your phone to your laptop, copy your photos off every month or so, and clear the phone storage. I actually can't believe this isn't the normal way people do things. People pay to let Google

Not to sound bleak, but you're describing what things looked like to me 18 months ago. The C-suite's gonna keep pulling that ladder up until the loss of layers of knowledge come back to bite them in the ass in six years. If it eve

I wrote a 3d rubiks cube slot machine for my old online casino. It scrambled the cube randomly 4 times and gave the player 60 seconds to solve it by twisting up to 3 times. Lots of weird quaternion math to handle the spinning and shift key

Humans are all different. Like dogs. Chasing a ball, professionally, for millions of dollars a year, gives some very rich and famous humans a sense of purpose. Laying on a beach and surfing may fulfill a sense of purpose for other humans. S

What else had capital been doing for the last 200 years?! It works when the financing loop is not zero-sum. It only leads to catastrophe when you get too successful and start to blow bubbles or invade other countries.

Right, so... like yes, leaving net wealth aside, what Elon spends in a year on necessary purchases may be 0.1% of his net income, and I spend maybe 20% of my income, and a person making minimum wage spends 90% of their income, so it's
