You're free to believe so, but that doesn't change the fact that the post's original title was heavily editorialised. Nobody wins by having HN posts' original articles misrepresented.

I don't know how well that will work out for some of Apple's proprietary chips. Lots of off the shelf parts, yes, but not everything; maybe not some of the crucial components needed to boot properly.

Not at all. This functionality isn't intended for the general public anyway.

Even when they can prove it, they shouldn't do it. It's not hard to conditionally unwrap optionals.

See, that's sounds like a fair rebuttal to the situation to me, though I'm not sure that point 3 really stands — who benefits from whom makes no difference to the matter in question, exaggerated though it is. Point 2 is quite stro

I'd understand the reasoning if the removed features could possibly make more sense in a separate app or some kind of optional add-on module, or if perhaps the point is really about the user interface not being overwhelming — and yet M

This seems like a very 'pick and choose' definition of discrimination. I don't think it holds up — professional courtesy within one particular job and an outward political attempt, using his vast wealth and influence, to prev

Ahh, I meant to say "I don't believe for a second that this represents the majority "! Man, this comment makes no sense. Apologies.

I don't believe for a second that this represents the minority. One might be tempted to conjure reddit-like images of Chads and Karens who park their cars where ever, when ever, and for however long they like, but the majority of peopl

In iOS 13, due to release next month, one will be able to simply tap-and-hold on a link, then choose to download the file. Safari on iOS will finally include a download manager just like the one on macOS.
