ChatGPT on macOS isn't built with Electron, at least the last time I checked. Just checking the linked frameworks shows that it links against macOS AppKit and the Swift libraries. …

One can imagine that resolving this will require a separate model to construct a timeline/keyframe series from a text description then interpolate between them. Fascinating times, …

Such a wonderful read. Think of childhood or teenage years when you spent hours building things for the sheer joy of it, profit motive be damned. More of us could do with sabbatica…

Crash reporting, formerly Hockey App but when acquired by Microsoft it became part of App Center.

Pontevedra is mentioned in the fifth paragraph, but unfortunately not much detail is given.

An excellent book. David Deutsch is a talented writer and this is one of those books that shifts the way you look at the world.

IMAP can be awkward with sync, pagination and has never played great with labels vs folders. JMAP looks promising.

Appears that (wording is somewhat vague) apps which only store user data on the device do not need to go through this external security assessment. Agree that this is Google pushin…

Think the fairest model is one where you pay once for the app, updates are free for a set period of time, then you have to pay again to upgrade if you wish to. If not, the old vers…

Second this. As pointed out elsewhere in this thread, billions of people are going to come online over the next five to ten years. If (according to the World Economic Forum: https:…

Yep, I realise that 'Absolutely free' is a bad choice of words and I will amend. Thanks for the feedback

I would gladly support Inbox, but I can't currently link to a specific thread in Inbox, so clicking a notification would just dump you at the inbox of your email account. Behind th…

There is no use of IMAP, it's using the Gmail API. It does poll the Gmail API frequently which is currently the recommended method of checking for new email according to Google. I …

My reasoning was that most people only have one email account and thus would be fine with the free version. As to why in-app purchase, I wanted people to be able to use it first wi…

Happy to answer any questions, this has been a little side project of mine with Swift and Google's Gmail API.

Firstly, this is fantastic. Really beautiful work and you've reframed what I thought was possible with CSS animations. The CSS is remarkably economical and I notice that you aren't…

Not a bad list, but I've never understood the reasoning behind frequency word lists. The 5,000 most common words in a new language are the ones that I need to worry about least, si…
