   I think github is an example of those. 9 of 10 integrations just ask for blanket permissions. Effectively, "give us permissions to edit and make commits to all of your repos, and every other possible thing that's possible to do on

   I always find these categories frustrating. A Link to the Past and Chrono Trigger do not belong in the same category. In the first, you have action fights that require quick hand-eye coordination and skilled reflexes. In the 2nd you just ch

   Is it first-class support? I hear lots of godot devs saying "I can't use X because I'm using C# instead of gdscript"

   I'm working on 250k LoC TS project. It's instant during dev. We don't bundle during dev so the server just has to compile which ever files changed.

   I'd expect getting involved with bad people would lead to bad outcomes. The "must tie up any loose ends" trope. Too many movies?

   This isn't about consumer choice in phones. It's about business access to markets. It's why it's called the "Digital Markets Act".

    I've played plenty of mobile games designed for touch that were fun. They are different than console and PC but they were still fun. I play "Doug Dug" almost every day. I played Pixa (same devs). I thought they did a great jo

    My feeling is, if most of Apple's employees are almost all not using the thing then it's a failure. I suspect 98% of all Apple employees use a iPhone, a Mac, and probably an iPad, and an Apple TV. I bet < 2% use a Vision Pro.

    Maybe my confusion was you wrote VR/AR instead of just AR. Though even then, while visually the Vision Pro does better then the Quest 3 at AR, the interactions leave a lot to be desired. AR (and VR) make me want to reach out and touch

    For me it was 50/50. 50% it was a joke. 50% the guy was "one of those a-holes". They exist so it's hard to tell. They aren't always American as some other commenters have pointed out. Was on a tour bus from Paris to

    I keep hoping for a few senators and or EU officials to have their accounts locked and deleted so they'll pass some laws that make it harder. Many modern countries have laws that landlords can't just kick you out of their apartmen

    I always thought the resource fork as a good idea poorly implemented. IMO they should have just given you a library that manipulated a regular file. Then you could choose to use it or not but it would still be a single file. It could have a

    Looking at that list there are probably 100s of "metro areas" with > 1m Look at the UN 2019 population estimates and sort by it. The last 10 areas are 5.49m, 5.49m, 5.38m, 5.38, 5.30m, 5.21m, 5.16m, 5.09m, 5.05m, 5.02m Given ho

    To all the downvotes, did you look at a map of Concepción? It's small. It's 200k people. It's "metro area" (the 1m) is spread out.

    We're talking metro area, not city. If the city is 1M, it's metro area is likely 1.5 to 3 million. If the metro area is 1m then the city is probably 750k to 350k people. The post above said "The Concepción metro area is 1 mil
