    It didn't have to be like that though... It hasn't always been this bad. Personally I think they've been ruining Swift since version 4. It's particularly terrible in SwiftUI contex…

    No need to defend yourself, I share this sentiment as well. If I'm going to spend time writing and reading a lot of code in a new learning language, I want my previous knowledge to…

    As we dive further and further into them being dependent on said devices to be part of modern society... Yes we do. It's the niche that wants open and flexible devices and the abil…

    That's a lot of code for a PR, though i should admit I have made PR's being half that size myself. Personally I think it's difficult to address these kinds of PR's but I also think…

    I got the iPhone 13 mini as a work phone for the sole reason of it being the smallest iPhone at the time. I too dislike the phone landscape nowadays with their ridiculous and ever …

    It's been years since I used Total Commander, so I don't recall all its features anymore. On macOS I use Marta https://marta.sh/ .

    It's not my hill to die on but I will say use wireless in-ear monitors myself to avoid ever having to deal with adapters because... Adapters are terrible, often wonky in one way or…

    Not loving this trend that we are starting to doubt whether everything is AI generated. Ahoy is a known Youtuber who has made content for 14 years. His voice is definitely not AI g…

    "Study smarter" or just make it easier to cheat... you be the judge of that. Maybe we should just go back to doing tests and exams on paper? What was the benefit of going digital w…

    The _mostly_ same behavior is what caused the problem though :P I'm curious, did these solutions come to pass because you had to make adjustments based on actual user feedback or w…

    Of course there are edge cases, I work with accessibility too, for an app in the public sector where WCAG rules are no joke, so I know this as well but even so, we don't build cust…

    Seems like a non bug to me. The first mistake the developer made, was that he wanted to create a different user experience between keyboard and mouse. Stick to what you get by defa…

    While I understand your question is about the Transit app in general, I'd just like to mention in correlation to the article that my team and I worked with one of the public transp…

    While Lottie has existed for a long time, I'd consider looking into Rive instead https://rive.app/ Compared to Lottie, you can make animations for Rive directly in their web editor…

    The whole concurrency agenda with local reasoning sounds great in theory but in practice becomes such a pain in the ass for projects that has existed for years. Maybe our current a…
