Maybe with some kind of plugin for more deterministic output from those languages?

Seems likely that they're submitting here as Reclaimer. The single comment on these submissions has that same fervent religious writing style as the readme on that EXA repo, itself…

Supposedly a major justification for the continued separation of Mac and the others (especially iPad) was differing UI interaction patterns. So what are they doing now? Using tools…

I knew something had to be up with them. It’s bad when I come across a round-up or comparison that fails to even mention my top options, and that seems to be the norm over there.

If those instances are only for tests/validation it could simplify some overall pipelines quite a bit.

This was a great read, thank you. I’m just now removing my application-focused blinders, but I already see the same technical, organizational, and financial issues.

> I do not own any HiDPI monitors This is a major factor. macOS has aggressively optimized for these in recent years, often at the expense of classic 1x display experience. I use 5…

> The applications broken in v4 are so niche that most people won't notice. Except when you’re building these applications. Then it’s infuriating! Maybe more often a feeling of hop…

This is a pretty grim outlook. It’s at best a false dichotomy between “code lovers” who write beautiful code and “money lovers” who write ugly code. An engineer who can adapt their…

No apparently that means you don’t know what you’re doing, and you’ll corrupt the repo, and you’re not a real software developer so we’ll come to your desk and rip up your I’m A Ve…

Swift is multi-paradigm. Improved support (over ObjC) for functional style, protocol-oriented design, and value types has led many to overuse them. Multi-paradigm isn’t a cop-out, …

I was so tempted to jump on this with my anecdata of successfully running ZFS without ECC for a time, but that was in the context of a dirt cheap home tinker box. If you care about…

Answering “Does this skirt make my butt look too big?” with something that “depends intimately on the true size of the set of real numbers” seems to be among the worst strategies.

Hence the “some/all” in the quoted text, yes?

I guess it still makes sense for higher abstraction levels though, right? Like a filesystem or other shared access to a storage resource. So these asynchronous APIs aren’t writing …

The American Kennel Club rejected mine because the domain was “too similar” to their name. I guess just because it had a “kc” in it? Completely bewildering.

It’s a shame that the reading experience gets worse as you go from book to e-ink to tablet, at least for me. Like many HN readers I’m already staring at screens for many hours per …

Cramming the concept of ownership into another post-scarcity environment is hardly redefining it.

Live-but-throttled is a decent compromise between the first two. Maybe something that submits a notification directly to you, as chance to approve/deny/respond, moderate what gets …

Just realizing that I spent too much time yesterday taping off edge cases around overflow where a BigInt would be much more appropriate.

That’s amusing but at the same time I’m glad I don’t have to interact with any software doing anything like this.

It’s even in the recent-ish high-ish level Compression framework: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/compression/compre...

Is this an excerpt from your woefully unpublished startup culture fanfic novella? You can't just leave us hanging.

An Apple engineer tweeted that this was a bug, but that tweet has since been deleted.

One less act of defiance to brag about on internet forums?
