While I agree that some players like playing against other players, I can say at least for me, I've never preferred that ever in a video game. Real players can be mean, or over powered, or over skilled, or use cheats, etc... and they c

confused why you'd think a native app has any less restrictions on sending anything it wants to any computer connected to the internet.

I'm the opposite. I think website = sanboxed, native = pownage so whenever I can use a website version I often prefer it over a native app. I use photopea all the time now. it's available on every machine, even machines I don&#x27

I find VSCode is fast enough for me. I work on a project with ~800k files. VSCode launches fast, finds files fast, greps fast enough, etc... So to me, JS is working as advertised. Choose the right solutions and algorithms and it works fast

by nox101 3y ago
agreed... Personally I feel like moving a JS tool to rust means 99% of JS/TS programmers are unlikely to be able to supply a patch to fix a bug or participate in most ways. I suspect some people will consider that a good thing though.

"rotates" is not the same as "forces a rotation". If there's a PWA that forces landscape orientation in iOS, same as a native app, please post a link.

And yet (1) Firefox and Chrome has shipped with that ability for 10+ years on Android and the world hasn't ended (2) PWAs are effectively apps. Native apps can do that those things so there's no difference in terms of risks. You

If Waymo was not too expensive and easy to get at rush hour in LA I'd certainly consider it. If I want to leave work between 5:30 and 6:30 pm, my commute can be 60 mins. At 8pm it will be 20 mins. That sucks but if I could use the 60

The cynical view would be that apple was only doing that to try staving off anti-trust litigation. The fact that PWAs are seriously crippled on iOS vs Android still seems certainly makes it appear Apple has ulterior motives. If you make PWA

AFAIK Apple still doesn't support PWAs. As one example AFAIK, iOS Webkit doesn't support fullscreen mode and orientation so it's impossible to make a landscape game as a PWA. That is supported on Android Firefox and Chrome fo
