I wastly prefer App Store on desktop too. Most of my software is in the same place. I can see which apps I have installed on a particular machine and which I do not. I can install it on multiple machines. It is updated automatically.

Why are you so obsessed with Apple users? There are plenty of cases where large numbers of people do something together.

I often complain how people are ignoring context nowadays. Twitter makes the problem worse, because of the nature of it, there is not even space for the context. Just a knee-jerk-raction propagation machine.

I am not sure science is clear about "you can spread the disease even without having symptoms". I've seen a couple back and forth arguments but nothing conclusive. Also, 15 days to get symptoms is an extreme outlier. Median i

I cannot take anything Facebook does (at least on iOS) seriously since the day they were bragging (with straight faces) about having so many classes that Xcode could not cope with them. And IIRC, lots of them were auto-generated and never p

It's like saying you are expected to ride a bicycle, electric bike, a scooter, a car, a truck, a minivan… Not exactly, of course, but there is a huge overlap, especially in concepts.

In my country less than 80 people have died because of the COVID-19. One can argue that many more have died because of lack of access to the medical help. Not because the health care system was overwhelmed—far from it. But the access was ve

Don't you think it is strange that "declining quality of everyday software" is observed at the same time as testing becomes the norm?

This advice is so strange. Do you imply, that learning pure JS is not useful? I dread this attitude. Also, you cannot have "in depth" knowledge of any higher end abstraction whithout knowing the language. By definition it will alw
