Why hasn't rap died? It's been popular for multiple generations now.

My wife does this all the time. I didn't know there was a name for it! By now I know to ask her what the actual problem is right up front.

How hard is it to add some a11y attributes? This part of the discussion has definitely been pointless since the beginning, when people came here to complain about that on some guy's side project which they'd most likely never even

The analogy breaks because code is able to be changed at any time almost as easily as writing new code . There is no such thing as landscaping in code. It's all easy to change.

Pffft. Right - because code is not completely mutable at any time during development. Have you considered that the analogy breaks after the obvious bit?

It's not hard to build, no. The hard thing is having to pay $100 per year to Apple and submit yourself to Apple's rules in their app store.

I like how if a story keeps getting flagged, but people still want to talk about the story, the people who flagged it have to see it so many times because it keeps getting resubmitted. And if you use a much better interface like https:&#x2

I'd like to know more about these limitations. The iOS APIs include a JavaScript runtime engine don't they? (JavaScript Core)

> Apple devices are becoming increasingly unusable for developers. Nothing laughable about that. It's absolutely 100% true. That's why only 25% of developers are on a Mac. Outside of the Silicon Valley bubble that number goes w

Desktop Chrome has this feature. If it annoys you, you simply turn off the entire feature altogether. Problem solved.

They banned menthol vape juice in my state so I bought a big bottle of menthol flavoring and some "Koolada" flavor that I just add to some tobacco juice. I bet the same thing would work for cigarettes.

A bit of off topic trivia: I'm betting the title was entered by an iOS user because the only word capitalized out of place is Apple. They don't even let you type the words App Store without auto capitalizing it for you even though

Exactly this. Nobody cares about the M1 except for tech enthusiasts and Apple fans. The problem is that you effectively have to run macOS to take advantage of it and that's a no-go for a wide variety of people. I don't even care i

> Apple is quite popular among developers... The great majority of developers use Windows or Linux according to every Stack Overflow survey from the past ten years. Only ~25% use a Mac.

Explore a new platform. When I moved to a Linux desktop a few years ago I felt like a kid again. It could be any hackable platform - Raspberry Pi, Arduino, Windows, Linux, Android, Tizen, PineTab/Phone/etc..

Both - because there are laws against unfair contracts, especially when the unfair portion is only explained to the less advantaged party (the customer) in hidden tiny text.

Meh. The M1 got laughed right out of our office. It couldn't do anything without us changing all of our code and tooling for it. We'll see how stable the landscape looks for it in five years.

Imagine if iPadOS turned into macOS when you plugged in a keyboard and mouse, then back into iPadOS when unplugged. That would be awesome! To the naysayers: Is the intent of a display different than that of another display? What could possi

I used Windows for twenty years as a developer and macOS for ten. Once I got away from .Net and iOS development and into Node/React both of them just got in my way while providing nothing of value. (Actually macOS has always annoyed me

I suppose everybody here should always preface their comment with IMO... Good thing that if you don't like the way Windows 10 looks, you can easily change it. Other than that, functionally, everything just works and I'd challenge

You have to close a lid and pack it up? Imagine having to carry your entire computer with you. Kind of an expensive item to be walking around with. Me, I just git push and walk away empty handed. Everything I need is in the cloud. Sure, I h

Windows 10 does it perfectly. If you haven't used a Windows 10 tablet for any amount of time, I'd suggest trying it out. I've used small and large Windows tablets for many years and have yet to find any big complaints about t

Size matters. A small bakery that affected next to nobody should not be treated the same as big tech companies that affect nearly everybody.
