Disclaimer: I'm speculating on the reason: There may not be a standardized URL scheme for mapping applications whereas both e-mail and browsers have it already (http(s): and mailto:). It's possible though! Apple could define a st

I can only give my own opinion. De-criminalize recreational drug-use. Community arrests of recreational users with no victims causes a bad image and puts young people on a path to being full time criminals. Increase training. If you fall ba

Assuming you're genuinely asking. I believe it's because feelings and intelligence would mean that animals suffer pain like we do, which would imply that we are cruel for eating or using them as we do. The best analogy I can come

It's worth mentioning that apart from Javascript, there is nothing 'web' about React Native. To put it simply: You use Javascript to control native components. Electron and React Native are wildly different. React Native is s
