Rating cost-of-living solely by monthly rent is naive. Having a family is expensive, so be sure to cut that fat too.

Well, I think it is quite possible that the devs on the first-party team are not the same devs on the platform team. First-party or not, if the platform provides the tools and the devs refuse to use them, it is on the devs. Not the platform

Here's two basic definitions of robot: "A machine that resembles a human and does mechanical, routine tasks on command." "Any machine or mechanical device that operates automatically with humanlike skill." So, I wou

I don't agree with the notion of blaming the platform because some devs refuse to update to modern standards of the platform. That's on the devs.

I don't know, when Apple decides to change things to go against the established norms they call it being courageous. Somehow, I'm not bothered about ignoring learned paradigms from so many years ago. For example, my 12 year old da

It amuses me to see this pop up from time-to-time in movies and TV. "And what's with all the carrots? What do they need such good eyesight for anyway? Bunnies! bunnies! It must be bunnies!!"

Your efforts in being reasonable will surely not be appreciated by the denizens of the internet. This is the era of "the accusation IS the evidence" for most.

That's a rather simple-minded response. You define the person as having privilege without knowing said person, and then dehumanize them by saying their situation is irrelevant to justify your offensive attitude. There are circumstances

From the second article: "... adding that forging a document to take away a child is almost as severe an allegation as kidnapping." Holy shit, that is fucking kidnapping. But somehow because a government worker does it somehow it&
