I don’t understand the relevance of that link…

It was not only because of the name. I think a big part of the turn around was the non compliance by the passengers. They were asked to turn off all Bluetooth devices but did not.

I see what you are saying but then where do you draw the line? What if the wifi name is “fuck all pilots” - “united is doomed” or “we will all die”?

My iPhone automatically enabled reader mode - I disabled it to see what you are referring to and I agree…

Charge back usually never works… at least in my case the provider never actually did it because the seller was in good standing.

You increase prices by 20%

Yeah I agree with you here… Haven’t we been burnt by being not cautious enough when COVID hit? Initially most scientists said “we don’t know if it’s airborne” or they said “there are no signs that it’s airborne” and the media turned it into

My main reason for not switching to mastodon: Direct messages are a UX and privacy nightmare IMHO.

I think the law does not specify how the previously used prices are supposed to be displayed. In Germany grocery stores used to display it in the smallest possible font in a foot note. They got sued, lost, and now they have to display it mo

A while ago I was seriously sick + in a hospital (for a few months). The doctors told me that I won't be able to resume my regular job (software engineer). At the same time I was in a lot of pain – unable to sit, walk, stand. It was no

Carbon offsetting is risky. You plant a tree and you don’t know if it will die. You create a swampy area to absorb co2 and 10 years later it dries out due to global warming. Offsetting should be used if there is no other way to reduce emiss

In my previous company, we "simply" used fixed versions for our dependencies. And we had our own NPM registry that only had already approved packages for specific version. Approval required a security review by someone from the Se

I always found German unions pretty good. I mean the union is correct in this case. Robots will replace jobs. A union’s job is to make sure there are jobs for people in the company they are already in. Usually unions would speak the truth (

I was just curious. This “nothing is safe” is just burnt into my brain and simply wanted to know the reason because it sounded so far fetched that safe is not absolute. But I totally agree.

by umpalumpaaa 7mo ago
Isn’t “nothing is truly safe” a common saying on HN? Safe is an absolute term and since nothing can be safe people usually avoid using safe as a standalone attribution to something. It is usually qualified in some way.

Even with that there is nothing from you accidentally using [i]. Also there are just a ton of Swift APIS and bridge API that take an index and then crash… for full coverage you would need hundreds of safe wrappers… (doing what you propose t

You can simply import Swift packages and either they expose an Objc interface or you can provide it yourself – by wrapping it in Swift and exposing the things you need via @objc etc. You can - at the same time - also hide the wrapped framew

I think DevTools can be a very good money maker… I wrote two apps that were basically dev tools and they were the biggest of my money makers. I think it’s easier to make money from dev tools that are “apps” than dev tools that are “fundamen

What I like about objective-c’s error handling approach is that a method that can fail is able to tell if a caller considers error handling or not. If the passed *error is NULL you know that that is no way for a caller to properly handle th

This is exactly how Companies are doing it… they put the money in a trust and pay for the ongoing costs by using interests from that trust.

It might be a well known brand to many folks – I am not sure since I am new in the US. My pants are all from Rhone Apparel.

by umpalumpaaa 11mo ago
I never knew what a difference good pants can make. I usually just bought my pants from H&M/other retailers or Amazon. I usually bought what I considered good value pants for like $30-80. I then, out of curiosity, bought pants that

there are a lot of apps that do this though… eg. git tower. Sketch. Etc. Not saying that I like it or anything. Maybe its the combination of local first + an app that seems to be trivial (I am sure it was not but if you hear "daily pla
