A lot of the complaints are that websites are opening in a tab of their browser instead of as an app. Correct me if I’m wrong, but that does not sound like a business ending catastrophe.

A lot of this is fantastical thinking where “Chromium features” are referred to as “open web standards”.

It sounds like you’re tired of the behavior of your coworkers. I’d be equally annoyed if they, eg, landed changes without testing that constantly broke the build, but I wouldn’t blame the compiler for that.

One user saying they don't need apps outside the App Store is an anecdote. Every person you ask about this matter over years saying they don't need apps outside the App Store is data.

Can you point out what I said that could be described as "bullying"?

That seems like a perfectly reasonable argument on the merits. What user actually needs web apps? What's the market for apps whose developers can't stomach a $99 developer fee and/or with functionality not allowable by app re

My guess is it's easier for developers to throw their website into Cordova than to start paying Apple a Core Technology Fee and convince users to download an alternative app marketplace to support what is effectively a differently pack

I think the advocate retort is that lack of support on iOS makes them a nonstarter for developers on all platforms. I think this argument is more of an excuse.

Their argument was they want the system (iOS) to enforce those permissions, not browsers on behalf of apps they've added.

by shuckles 3y ago
Apple could support PWAs and enforce the same Core Technology Fee they do on them as they do for 3p distributed apps, so this argument makes no sense.

The sides in this debate are: Apple, Chrome advocates (with a little bit of separation), and the EU. It's not that perplexing to choose the first.

Apple announced web apps on macOS as keynote feature last year where they have no anti-trust scrutiny. This theory has holes.

Why use this extremely indirect signal to evaluate security when the direct signals like exploit markets indicate iOS is among the most secure consumer computing environments ever?

No it’s not. AB122 passed the legislature to legalize the California roll for cyclists, because coming to a full stop at a stop sign makes no sense for riders with high visibility. Newsom vetoed it for stupid culture war reasons. It’s a law

Some of what you cited directly relate to well-being like healthcare and other items are inputs but unrelated like the political system. For those that directly relate: it’s pretty unclear that the EU as a whole does better on environmental

The US has strong anti poverty programs and provided more generous pandemic aid than any European country. At some point, you have to consider street homelessness a lifestyle preference of the American political system. A lot of the people

Actually white feminism is a technical term when used in my comment referring to a certain type of egotistical blindness to the reality of others enabled by an extreme privilege and narrative making of one’s own. Solnit has no clue what she

If you’re trying to learn about California and San Francisco from Solnit, you are far down the wrong path. My favorite part of that incoherent article was how Solnit takes credit for social movements that ended decades before she moved to S

He likes bravado, but the startup bro faction has succeeded in the majority of political fights it’s engaged in so far. This shouldn’t be all to surprising either: a lot of these local elections are decided by a couple hundred votes. Sustai

Again, progressives oppose development regardless of affordability. They, for example, opposed amending the city charter to exempt affordable housing projects from discretionary review. They are suing UCSF over hospital expansion and oppose

The position on SB35 was taken by CCHO, which is not a wacky fringe organization but instead of the most influential progressive policymaking bodies around housing policy. I think you offered charity to the point of being misleading. There

Julian never apologized for his tweet whereas Garry did, so it’s kind of a false equivalence.

This is an extremely charitable take. As far as can be observed by the consequences of their policy, the progs don’t actually care about maximizing new affordable housing production. If they did, they would not have referred to SB35 as geno

Rent controlled does not mean below market rate, and affordability isn’t poured in concrete so “building affordable and not affordable housing” is a nonsensical statement.

No that’s not what I said. Also, they haven’t “informally criticized” a death threat. They’ve asked the city attorney to draft a law against it and filed police reports, in addition to having their favorite reporters prolong the news cycle.
