"Learn complex topics". Yeah, not really. Get a cursory, superficial overview of complex topics? Sure. But that's about it.

Apple was once in the business of producing Performa 630, 631, 635, 636 etc.

Just to be clear, I don't blame young web devs for SwiftUI, I blame Apple for having tried to cater to them hastily.

Craig Federighi was working on EOF at NeXT I think.

So the only way out is something new again.

Maybe responsive layouts are part of the problem? I get their appeal (in the sense of only having to develop one layout), but IMHO, in many cases more strict layouts would be the better choice. You mention classic apps having a fixed layout

Why does it have to be 10 AM otherwise? (i.e. why can't it be 8 AM every day?) I also get up at 6 AM every day because I have to on some days.

At least for me, it just had/has the right mix of abstraction and simplicity. It just "ticked" in a way that for example MFC didn't. But I also really liked Objective-C.

iOS killed the macOS star...

Well the problem now is Apple would need to admit they made a mistake. And Apple does not make mistakes.

> There's no way I'd dare to take on a full Apple-platform app project alone on my own And that's really sad, because earlier Mac OS X (and even OPENSTEP to a degree) was an Eldorado for boutique developers, not least due

I think the problem with SwiftUI in a way was (or is) that Cocoa was so good. And, at least IMHO, it didn't need replacing, just improving. But I feel like Apple wanted to appeal to young web devs and tried to offer something more simi

That battle is already lost

Would behaviour driven development be helpful here?

I'm both disappointed and relieved that this is virtual.

> I think letting LLMs program in human friendly languages makes the results more difficult for humans to inspect. Does it? I think for example Ruby seems to work quite well with LLMs in this regard. Or is this not what you would conside

Secondary radar historically was radar. ADS-B can be seen as kind of a replacement or complement, I guess that's why it falls under the same terminology.

Yeah, while this is a neat project, I was expecting something completely different (and possibly illegal I guess, I don't know).

Yeah sorry if I haven't made myself clearer, I was referring to the article.

That's not what the articles says though: "Ancient mystical texts hint at earlier creation, the life that preceded the Garden, prequels to Genesis. These incarnations are not reported in the Bible because they are none of your god

The timelines don't really add up for me. So there could have been this hypothetical civilization 55 million years ago already. And they've only just disappeared (if they did) 10'000 or so years ago? Without a trace? Also, no
