SEEKING WORK - iOS Developer, Remote, UK Location: England (based in Lincolnshire but happy to travel Manchester/Liverpool/London etc) Remote: Yes (or hybrid 1-2 days in office). T…

Because YouTube "is 99.9999999%" piracy? Hmmmm. Piracy on YouTube isn't 0%, obviously. But it isn't in the same league, or comparable to torrenting.

I'm not missing anything. iSH is very much an edge case. My entire point was that Quake would be allowed on the Apple Watch via the App Store. EDIT: To clarify 'very much an edge c…

Apple doesn't believe in enabling illegal piracy, which is 99.9999999% of the usage of torrents. Twitter, web browsers, and YouTube are fine on the App Store.

And yet, you aren't rejected, and are in the store. While their interpretation of their guidelines can be ropey, as is anything handled by a human, my point still stands. Quake 1 w…

No, they don't. There are 3D games running on the Apple Watch, available in the App Store. Mindkeeper: The lurking fear (Apple Watch)[ https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mindkeeper-the-…

I've never heard, or seen that before. Everything I've ever seen rejected by Apple (either personally from my own apps, clients, or from press reports) has always been a guideline …

Can you show an example? I’ve been an iOS developer for 10 years, and I’ve only ever seen/been rejected for things that fall foul of the guidelines, never arbitrarily.

Yes, they publish their guidelines which states as such… but how is Quake 1 too simple? Downvote all you want, but within the context of Quake 1 being approved on the Apple Watch, …

Untrue. As long as it meets the technical requirements (ie, not using private APIs, doesn't excessively drain battery etc), and the licensing issues aren't a problem (some OSS lice…

True, and I agree, but an 'upper cap' wouldn't be used against just the companies that we don't think provide innovation (such as Amazon in this scenario). The caps would also be u…

Why will Amazon stifle innovation? All EA do is release the same games every year with slightly different content (FIFA, Battlefield, Madden, Sims, etc). What am I missing?

Antitrust law does exactly this. If Amazon owning EA overly concentrates market power/forms a monopoly, it'll be rejected and the deal with fail. Why would you want to put an upper…

If not, then we'll likely learn more at Tesla AI day #2, on September 30th.

People who go to a nude beach, opt in to a nude beach. People who turn on Nudity check, opt in to a nude check.

I don't fully trust my Model 3 with the 'walk away' bluetooth lock. However I do trust the 'pin to drive' (which randomly changes location on screen to foil fingerprints). And sent…

How has Neurolink failed? They've successfully implanted within a chimp, allowing the animal to control a game (pong) via its brain. They're now moving onto human trials before the…

Was The Washington Post the tipping point where Amazon started to collapse? I think we're approaching a point in the lifespan of Tesla where is can stand on its own merit and no lo…

First Sphere ( https://www.sphere.me ), now Quill. Twitter is obviously planning something in this space, but to me, Twitter's magic is in the ability to really consume a lot, from…

Vegans do have a good point, however, for the majority of the population food is just something that they crave, eat for taste, or because it is thrust in their face daily by corpo…

Could be interesting to set the iPad to black and white mode (also in the accessibility settings), and seeing how he reacts to that?

You have three options. Optimise for user experience (go native) Optimise for cost (whatever the cheapest developers, or a cross platform solution, like phonegap/pwa/react native) …

One of these things is not like the other. One is backed by multiple factories producing vehicles, with even more factories coming online in the next year, an entire industry facin…

Or "If you use all of our products, you'll reap the benefit of tight vertical integration". I suppose its a cup half full type deal.

Actually I disagree. Since I started writing new apps exclusively in Swift, my apps have crashed exactly zero times according to Fabric/Crashlytics. I adopted day one, never looked…
