    Pointing out the simple, obvious definition is still better than any argument that you’ve made about anything here, IMO. I’d love to hear you make an argument that will shed light …

    The definition of empirical is: “based on, concerned with, or verifiable by observation or experience rather than theory or pure logic.” Was there a salient point that you were try…

    I’ve written them personally. You can also go and look at some of them yourself. That’s what empirical means.

    OK and I’ve seen plenty of 2.5 - 3 star reviews where people were just fine with the app too. Same thing with products on Amazon. I’ve also left review such as this myself. People …

    > People who are fine with their apps don't write reviews. This is obviously incorrect since you can see positive reviews, many of them in fact, on many apps. I myself have posted …

    How hard is it to destroy things? If people wanted to they could start breaking shit and then there would be no cameras watching them. Can you manufacture devices faster than peopl…

    OK and all I’m saying is that you have not presented any evidence for your claim at all.

    You've got no evidence and your logic regarding sample sizes is unsound. 10% is a huge sample size for any survey. Look at how it's calculated - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampl…

    Hahahahaaaaa. So, the same evidence that was not good enough for you is now good enough for you. That’s hilarious! Thanks for a good laugh :) Listen, you’re dead wrong. Sorry.

    Actually, 10% of a population is a damn good sample size for just about any scientific or medical study. It’s quite large to be honest. Anyway, once again... where is your evidence…

    Incorrect again. The fact that you can go onto any apps review history and see evidence that people are unhappy with updates that break their stuff is exactly the definition of emp…

    Hmmm, well I'd say that beyond a very superficial comparison with "keyboards" from 200 years ago (if there even were such a thing), modern keyboards have changed a lot and for good…

    Incorrect. It happens regularly and it certainly affects non-developers. I've seen it too many times. Look through any apps review history and you'll find people complaining about …

    Followed by comments about how Mac OS is somehow “the best” despite the fact that the vast majority of developers prefer Windows.

    Comment #17478541

    If some app removed a function that you depended on in a newer version, you'd want to go back to the old version. At that point, you wouldn't be able to just use the app. Then you'…

    Comment #17478525

    I don't see how they could "know they're the best" when Windows is the best. If you want the CLI tools from 1979 that come with your Mac, you can easily add them to Windows, the be…

    Mobile apps are not as good as portable apps where I can actually go back to an older version if I want to.

    I am looking forward to the death of reddit because I think it can be done way better. One big thing I'd like to see changed is the very blunt upvote/downvote hammer that results i…

    Oh no! Not Booze and Sex!! The humanity! People who complain about "bro culture" won't be happy until everybody (and I mean everybody) is exactly like them...bland.
