No way. I reduced to 30 hours a week and I’m never going back to full time. I use the extra time for my own projects or other things that need to get done. Such a huge improvement …

The butterfly keyboard was pretty terrible. They continued selling the model for years before finally removing it. Customers didn’t get any recourse until the recent lawsuit, but t…

Steam Deck. I got it to replace playing games on an Intel Mac, as Mac has become a worse platform for gaming (32bit dropped, OpenGL deprecated, no Vulkan support, and now developer…

Is it? I’m using Orion on iOS and privacy report has multiple google font domains being contacted by Orion.

I have been a Mac and iOS developer for 7 years now and am moving away. I feel like Apple treats developers really poorly from App Review process to forced updates of your hardware…

I don’t have any numbers, but some job postings will say full time, part time, or will have a minimum number of hours they offer. Some will also give a percentage range of hours th…

It’s already common to work part time as a software engineer here in Germany. I work 30 hours a week (6 hours a day) and have 75% of a full time salary. I actually get the same amo…

Long time Apollo user, I had no idea you could disable the infinite scroll. Thanks for mentioning it!

They changed their storage share (hosted Nextcloud) offerings as well. I had NX10 100GB for €3.45, which is now gone. The NX11 1TB is €4.64 and the base offering.

This worked. Funny that this bug will cause people to turn off the opt-out data collection. No one is going to turn it back on after the issue is fixed.

I have issues with Uber 2FA not sending a SMS to my Twillio number. Nothing arrives. 2FA via call works, just not SMS.

I hate this as a developer. I feel this is done to force you to buy newer hardware sooner. The SDKs could be decoupled from the Xcode version. You can work around it a little bit b…

> Would something like this ever be acceptable on a laptop? Apple announced this for macOS as well. It’s not just for iOS.
