That mobile app you mentioned was Snapchat right? Worst discoverability of any mobile app I’ve ever used.

It's not intrusive because, contrary to what you think, you can very easily disable notifications for that app, just as you disable notifications for any other app in iOS. I have, and therefore I didn't get this notification that

FWIW, Canonical's Multipass has given me a great WSL-ish experience on macOS.

> Now, on my fully paid-for iPhone 13, I got an urgent notification from the Apple Store today. It made my phone buzz and my screen light up, while I was otherwise productively engaged. Apparently, there is a sale on. Apparently, I can&#

I am the exact same way, both with calendars/notes and shelves. Weird!

I wish we'd just stopped at "users won't pay" and realized that, if people aren't willing to pay for it, maybe it's not a product worth building.

Here’s an example: if I build a Python app with PyInsyaller (which can’t cross-compile), and if I want a Windows executable, I have to build on Windows, not WSL, which defeats the whole purpose of “bash on Windows” because now at best I hav

I’ll add onemore: “Always in an app” design, rendering the concept of a “Super” key moot (I’ve always both loved and hated this).

Absolutely have the same experience here and it drives me nuts.

Im not insinuating it, I’m saying it. It’s clear as day to anyone who’s been paying attention, one reason being the connection you yourself pointed out. How else can you explain antisemitic comments leading to higher popularity amongst the

My estimation is that he's schizophrenic (in addition to being bipolar -- they do often go hand in hand). I've seen not one but two people get dragged into the hell of that disease, and both began with buying into antisemitic cons

> He's made blatant antisemitic remarks and yet his popularity among the right grows. You say this as if the latter isn't a direct result of the former.

What do you love about the kernel design? I’m a Linux dude so it’s foreign to me.

Veganism, like all other idealogies that could be described as “if only everyone did X,” will never, ever be as widely-adopted as you’d like without authoritarianism driving that adoption. Also — I’m saying this as a former vegan — I have d

Yup, I watch his streams religiously.

This is just so cool and inspiring to me. I check out pretty much everything Andreas puts out. I wonder if we're watching something comparable to the birth of Linux. I'm not insinuating that Linux would go away or die or anything

"Quiet quitting" is dumbest fucking buzzword I've ever heard -- it's just "doing what you're hired to do," i.e. the exact opposite of quitting. Our society is entirely too obsessed with conjuring new and n

Man, even considering the current downturn, that is a lot of money (roughly $150,000 at the time of writing).

How are you running a macOS VM on Windows? I’ve tried basically every combination of hypervisor and macOS version since Mojave and I can hardly ever get them to install right, let alone run even kind of well.

Thank you. As far as I'm concerned, humanity's most fundamental responsibility is to lower its emissions, as much and as permanently as possible. I am sick and tired of seeing the focus of this task muddied by instead focusing on
