Normal income tax. It starts ticking at the time of vesting. Capital gains comes into play if you sell it for a price different than what it vested for.

I think the author’s conclusion is in line with my own thought: If JSON is the problem, YAML isn’t the solution. I recall the first time I saw YAML and all I could think to myself was that I have to learn yet another syntax. I find it far l

I wonder how well Xamarin will work with Swift-only frameworks, like the upcoming SwiftUI and Combine frameworks. They make heavy use of Swift generics. It’s been a long time since I’ve touched Xamarin so it’s a genuine curiosity.

I don't think that's entirely fair to say. I've experienced it to some extent before and never told anyone about it. I've grown up with humbleness being taught to me as a very valuable virtue and it sometimes ends up imp

There’s definitely some common threads with this and Apple’s push to have apps use bitcode. It would make this duality a lot easier from an app distribution perspective without the need to have an emulation layer. My only guess as to why Ap

Except it happens on government-owned sites from the local to the national level where I have EVERY right to visit, especially as my tax dollars are paying for it and it’s for services that are available to the general public.

Just don’t work for a startup. I did it for 8 years. I know it’s not compared to some but I never made it rich from any of my ventures. Won’t ever do it again now that I’m in a Fortune 500 company. At first it can feel like I’m a number and

I’d imagine there’s a lot of criteria being used. Maybe something like the age of the account, how often it’s used, of it was created from an often used IP address. Whatever it is, it’s probably not in Apple’s interest to disclose it.

Something like this would be cool, and probably significantly harder to implement, for GraphQL.

What about being able to make a ClosedCountableRange from that sequence? That can’t readily be done with an Any type without some type checking. Specifying an Int element type should automatically make it easier for you.

As an app developer, what worries me if the third party tools we use do unintended tracking. For example, we use Firebase for tracking crashes and knowing which versions of our apps are being used. We’ve also recently started using them for

One can espouse such opinions freely and openly but alas disagreeing in any sort of way would often be unwise from a career and public profile perspective.

If you can even find a merchant that accepts credit cards! While in Berlin, the only place I came across that accepted credit cards was my hotel and a Starbucks. Every lunch and dinner place I went to were cash-only.

Lots of companies hate the GPL. It’s nowhere exclusive to Apple. So what? They don’t have to align with your vision of what open source should be like. What’s wrong with the idea of playing in a different sandbox with a different set of rul

Could you, at least, provide something to substantiate your opinion? There's ups and downs to both approaches. But you should note that reference counting, for the most part, is handled for you at compile time.

I’ve worked with a similar library before: appsee. While it does have a little bit of value in helping trace crash reports and provide heat maps, we ultimately got rid of it and for the better. It can be hard to find and “cover up” every si

It’s no different with App Store submissions. For all the hate and talk of how stringent Apple is with their process, they at least provide very detailed reports and are quite good with feedback whenever things do go wrong. Google on the ot

I shocked and surprised that Apple went this route. At least they’re enforcing the rules consistently. My company uses enterprise certs for internal beta/QA builds and I’d hate to see Apple change this program to make things harder for

It'll sting internally, for sure. For how long? Not sure but I'd say it'll halt release processes for maybe a week or two. Any large organization resorts to using enterprise certs for beta and QA distributions of an app as th

I'd like to see any significant report indicating that Apple is making serious money off its patents and is trying to push more into that business. Besides, patent agreements aren't exclusive to Apple; I'm sure a portion of m

San Francisco issuing concealed carry permits!? There’s literally only a handful issued for the entire city. There’s no hope of that changing, short of a SCOTUS ruling.

I'm not entirely sure I agree that it shifts complexity. I think there's more complexity on both the client and the server end. I work extensively with GraphQL on the client end (iOS) and there's certainly more work involved

I doubt it would pass antitrust review were that the case. Qualcomm is the only viable US market chip company that high-end phones can use. All the existing patents and agreements don’t go away if it were to be acquired.
