He's myopic to the actual conflict. The system isn't failing, it's a very profitable business for Apple.

It doesn't work for other apps because it's unrealistic to expect that only Google "isn't following" A non "lazy and incompetent design" would make "non-following" a non-issue unle…

You can use a protective glass built into your monitor!

Think almost all of that is purely visuals. For example, there are many Windows apps with blurry fonts due to poor dpi support, and that's not common on Macs. Otherwise it's mostly…

The failure of the OS is not identifying those updates as a single app and applying the same permissions

No, Google should be blamed for asking, Apple should be blamed for poorly designing permission system

What about the other half?

Why are you sidetracked instead of piping that to another AI?

No worries, writing with AIs can improve the speed bugs enter the code base as well. Would be interesting to know the breakdown. > the “latent security issue.” Code that is safe an…

You forgot the 3rd current option: Microsoft does police HIV, but does it poorly -> "MS is a negligent evil monopolist"

How is it permission denied if the app is running as admin? The OS "handled" it by giving admin app admin access. Sure, it was tricked by the user input, but that's what the fixes …

2. Most would not use "some" in such a broad way, though could only quickly find this law school's explanation that many>some (and obviously? most>many) https://law.marquette.edu/f…

Maybe internal registers are the primary way, though that prevents some niche cases like clipboard watchers (copied #hex color to clipboard, have an option to insert any other form…

You think wrong, "mob" is a collective way of criticizing a policy. Sure, there are differences in types criticisms, but then try to actually articulate those and address whatever …

While I doubt the benefit of small differences to signal the absolute value (sure, you can feel that one is bigger, but that is it 10 vs 5 bigger or 50 vs 20 bigger?), especially c…
