I guess that explains why Dave Verwer handed off ownership of the iOS Dev Weekly newsletter. Always great to see community members see success.

Americans may have trouble understanding that the constitution means something given what is going on there right now.

It can get so much worse than what we have in the West.

> Ah yes, because claiming that people are eating cats and dogs, something that actually happens in some parts of the world, is the same thing as claiming that the president ate ba…

Correction: the class war already started long ago. Unfortunately the lower classes are not only getting trounced, they mostly don’t know the war is happening.

They supported it because they saw an opportunity to remove limitations on them, both domestically (see FCC, restrictions on state level AI laws, etc) as well as internationally (r…

I think you are giving Trump way too much credit. He is a much simpler man - he sees a weakness or some leverage, then he will use that for financial gain. No more than that.

For what it is worth, there are lots of double DIN aftermarket AirPlay options for a C6. No need for an iPad.

That may or may not be true. But what is immediately clear is that Trump has no idea how to accomplish it. Americans are in I believe 6 months of contraction in manufacturing jobs.…

But none of that really changed. The money printer is still going ant the same pace, and will only be going faster in the coming year. And the Federal layoffs from the DOGE nonsens…

Maybe I am missing something but ~1/3 of voting age Americans voted for this. Trump was very clear that tariffs were coming, and even warned that Americans should be prepared for s…

I got a request a few months ago for a sysdiagnose for a bug I filed for their in app purchase server API. There really is very little reason to file bugs with Apple now.

> It had Republican support so it would've gotten the 60 votes in Senate without needing to get reconciliation That is a bit of a jump. It wasn’t too long ago we had the Republican…

> Or only when it crosses ~$100 million like President Trump did ? I believe you missed another option. The President-elect has been convicted for fraud, is a big believer in quid …

Will the Americans stop massive dairy over production that is supported by government programs like “government cheese”? Or massive farm subsidies? You need to expand your view bey…

Germany has purchased many Typhoons.

Just over a year ago the agreed upon settlement process from NAFTA 2.0 ruled that Canada was not doing anything out of line with the 2018 agreement. The current quota system was al…

> If Meta, and others pushing on AI, are not reducing heads in 2025 -- it would kind of undermine the value of the massive investments they are making If we take Zuckerberg at face…

It is important to differentiate between immigrants vs temporary workers and foreign students. What Canadians seem to have issue with is the latter, which is being abused by Canadi…

The current state of the US is the roadblock to this. We already have very high economic integration between Canada and the US, but we now have to deal with a belligerent and incom…

My job is typically to deliver features that make the company money. The writing of code is just a part of that. In my experience the people who solely focus on the code end up bei…

This is an unfortunate attitude. The current state of things in our industry is a reflection of this “not my job” way of doing things.

The company puts A LOT of effort into its program for hiring new grads. But is horribly inept when it comes to providing a career path for individual contributors. So unless you ma…

It is fairly obvious. If it is expected that a product or set of features will drive X revenue per month, and you are late by Y months, then a decision that directly contributes to…

I just had a very valuable teammate quit this week from lack of salary progression. New-ish grads are making more than him for much lesser jobs. The business refused to do even a t…
