    I've found a common giveaway of AI writing to be having many unnatural pauses in sentences. For example, A good architect’s most important skill isn’t designing systems. It’s knowi…

    Semantic versioning is about versioning individual dependencies, no? The issue here seems to be about transitive dependencies, where different versions of the same package is used …

    I agree that SQLite requires less maintenance, but you still need to vacuum to prevent the database file from accumulating space (for apps, I run VACUUM at startup).

    Yes, but does anyone today really do that? The only value I see out of Objective-C on its own is as a performant and compromising Smalltalk.

    People still write applications in Objective-C (e.g., see Transmission [1]), and the language is still maintained to support the latest OS. If anything, Apple being the largest spo…

    It could be that energy is a lot cheaper in China, but it could be other reasons, too.

    Side note, but thanks for the note about not using AI to write your articles. I'm tired of looking for information online, finding an article that may answer it, and not being sure…

    I wouldn't consider any country in particular to be 'good if push comes to shove,' given that most exist to promote an environment where companies can easily make money. If a state…

    The question is whether or not American companies like Apple are controlled by the US government. Do you genuinely believe that, just because you can go to a court, that you're som…

    Believe it or not, that's the case I was thinking of when I asked, "just because they're allowed to criticize them?" A multi-national corporation like Apple having the freedom to c…

    Yes, but that's the case for any company under any state. Do you believe that Apple is not under the US government's control just because they're allowed to criticize them?

    Last time I checked, China's state-owned enterprises aren't all that invested in developing AI chatbots, so I imagine that the amount of control the central government has is about…

    In my experience, software decoding AV1 requires a lot more CPU utilization than the equivalent for H.264 (~90% on your average 1080p video). It would likely be a death sentence to…

    In my experience, DB Browser for SQLite keeps the connection open in a way where an application that accesses the database may throw a lock error. Maybe it can be configured, but I…

    Personally, I use Swish for this [1], but the reason is probably because of the intended audience. Window snapping requires you to organize your windows yourself, which is somethin…

    Source for this? SwiftUI depends heavily on Apple/macOS-only APIs, both in use and design.
