I used to believe this wouldn't happen to me (I use Android phones without much issue). Then, last week, I was added to a group text for some party planning, and the first few messages in the group chat were "who here has android&

Despite reading essays of other devs telling you how you should dev, have faith in yourself. Over time you'll develop your own proclivities, instincts, etc., and end up writing your own essays to the next generation. People writing ess
