How has the relationship been between Apple and Adobe ever since Steve Jobs declared war on Adobe Flash and effectively being the final nail in the coffin for Flash? Seems like there would be a lot to repair when even Adobe snarked back

I don't understand. Almost all of GitHub is a centralized service, while the self-hosted version is available to a select few enterprise partners. What's the roadblock on doing self-hosted CI without failing due to GitHub? It woul

We use a cluster of self-hosted GitLab instances. Their update cadence has been on a roll and their development process is much more transparent compared to GitHub imo because it's a lot easier to see how they comment and discuss when

Why would that be the case? Shouldn't it be more common to find deployments happening early Monday morning? It's common practice to avoid potentially bug-inducing changes right before the weekend hits

I forgot to mention though that the M1 has reduced complexity in "cross-platformness" for one dimension now that you can run iPhone apps on macOS. People have been sideloading .ipa from their phone to their laptop which is excitin

It's interesting to me you're getting downvoted which signifies that people don't think you're adding to the conversation Is this a form of denialism by hardcore "I-Hate-Javascript"ers? I would like to add that

I like it too, but one thing that bothers me about online articles in general recently is the way they hide publishing date. If the date is there, then it's going to be purposely bumped across many years to generate more SEO clicks Too

This is one thing that I have always wondered about. Lots of app-development frameworks insist and die by the practice that is trying to be smart about common dependencies or global dependencies like Ruby gems/Bundler. In all of my exp

I respectfully request to cease comments of the type of "weeps in x". You don't have to honor this request, but I would feel better without reading these.

I know about that because i use robots.txt on my personal website to exclude, but how do you automatically exclude links that were already archived?

by usui 6y ago
Did you just put pressure on archive.org to take down the link? The archive.org link is no longer working and it says "This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine." https://web.archive.org/web/20201104

I do cringe at the sight of reading "grown ass man" considering that it does not really add much to what "grown man" could have accomplished. Thanks, I am glad to know I am not the only one who feels this.

Since you mentioned self-signing, I always laugh whenever I see people mention this on threads related to iOS apps and "being able to use your own software". These self-signed apps last for only 7 days before it expires, and then

How interesting. Probably because playing against bots in a multiplayer game usually sucks. If really high AI difficulty was the norm, then that wouldn't work.

I want to make it clear that I am not an apologist for China, but when we levy criticism and express our fears, it needs to be precise, sharp, accurate. They should not be attempts to fearmonger. This comment does NOT have the purpose to ap

Thanks for pointing out, because now that I think of it, my view does come off as odd. What I think it reflects is that despite nuclear fusion being a technical, engineering problem, I believe getting companies/governments to abandon c

I do not think solar is going to work. As you say, it might take up to 50 years to crack the case on nuclear fusion. I argue that it might take up to 50 years for governments and companies around the world to even begin cooperating in a fas
