Give him 6 months... usually it takes a bit to change things around (including marketing / pr presentations). But, he has been part of Apple for too long, and probably has internalized that style. Hope he brings good change though...

2/3rds of those herbs grow in the garden of my home as just weed (this in Albania), including mint, cilantro, origano and more. While some have to be cultivated, a lot these herbs just grow as weeds in the Mediterranean area.

Was this written by AI? My experience, with the latest models, they do write code that looks correct/polished, but often do not fully solve the problem, or solve the wrong thing, or introduce un-needed complexity. By often, I mean at

I still use my M1 Pro Macbook... for iOS development. It still works amazing well, and the battery still is holding strong. For large apps, compiling can be a tad slow, but for medium and small apps it still works amazingly well. Eventual

Again... you are confusing second order effects, with the primary reason. We have an old saying "te rafte pika e diellit", may you get a spot, sun spot, aka cancer from the Sun. People knew excessive sun is unhealthy.... if you

This is silly.... most of the world didn't live in england. All cultures (including mine), have a way to warn kids, or adults for not to stay too long in the sun. From normal sunburn, to feeling light-headenes/fainting due to hea

Of course. When I went remote, I could work from Miami during the winter, and escape the NYC cold months. Going for a swim to your buildings roof pool after done with the day, was the best feeling ever. https://pbs.twimg.com&#x

SwiftData is just a framework that you can choose to ignore and not use at all. Even CoreData. You can go straight to the source, and use some small layer on top of SQLite, and ignore that noise (most large apps just do that). But, SwiftUI

Just use manual layout / frames dude, like a caveman. (ps. Many successful large apps do just that, including Instagram, and some of Spotify, where I worked).

Dude, you didn't describe MVC at all, but MMVC. MVC, the controller is the intermediary between the services/data models, and the views. That still one of the best / simplest way to build large apps. MMVC is just a variati

You are applying a one way arrow to events where in real life events do change state and can completely change UI (and functions) itself. Which makes imperative always the superior mode. What you described works only in super simple scenar

I agree with you. Swift should have been a modernized Objective-C. It should have kept the best parts of it, which made it a joy to use, and leave the archaic and the weird things behind. it would have been a great language, meanwhile the

Maybe for you. But SwiftUI promise was to make coding UI easier for the programmer similar to ReactN, but with AI coding that is not necessary anymore, you can go straight to UIKit which is most stable and feature complete. In car terms:

SwiftUI it is the type of framework that makes the easy things easier to accomplish but the harder things harder. It is a newbie trap. It is great at producing simple apps, or things that don't require intense scrolling, or anything w

They are racist, and unfortunately hard core israel supporter, which makes anybody that doesn't go with that agenda as a target. The moment that Mandani said he will stay home and serve the people of NYC, what asked 'where are you

French foreign services said they discovered this, but they haven't made all material they know public. They say the contacted the NY/US authorities with what they know. Do you think they are lying just for kicks?

Number 1 problem is battery weight though. Not electric motors. I have a 84 w123 300D, and would love to add some more power to it. Lightweight hub motors would be great, but any decent size battery would be at least 200lbs+, which is har

AI Coding is great helper but not a substitutue for producing decent looking apps. Anytime I let lose AI (Both Codex and Claude), they end up producing slop that is overcomplicated, and that looks like a generic tutorial interface. Great f

LMAO, this thing is so ugly. It looks like a generic Chinese EV. Interior looks good, but the exterior is just a boat. 5.05m long, 2m wide, 5000lbs heavy. Looks like a mix of the Jag Epace and the Mustang EV/Mache Can't believe

I worked at Instagram during this (not at the EeE, but saw enough of it, to see that it was a mess). I think the reason for dropping it, is more of a technical issue and user experience, rather than a 'desire' issue or company wil

You are not getting it. There are plenty of cars that have 600+ hp and are manual. The Ferrari Roma, or Amalfi, are within that 600hp - 800hp range. Simply, the new leadership thinks there is not enough market for it, and that's why.

I wish Ferrari would bring their manuals back. Their gated manual was such a joy to use. There is probably enough demand (look at the used prices, where manuals sell 40% more), but the new management seems keen to just try to squeeze as mu

It is basically a Mustang body on a tesla chasis... which misses the point of having a classic car. While there is nothing wrong with converting your classic car to electric, if the powertrain is shot (they are harder to maintain as they a

Whoever designed the modern version of it, did an awesome job. Modern porsches (past 2000) have gotten a bit too boring, and it needs to be bring some more color in their line up.

I left Meta a while ago... but these layoffs (multiple rounds every year) have been very demoralizing to the folks there. I survived all three rounds of layoffs, but I saw multiple great colleagues (some of them had been there for 10+ years

Lol... Hey now, I am Albanian, and we have delicious food. :) And export a bunch of random things (like Oregano, Olive Oil, Lavender, Shoes, etc..), and some steel and oil. But, mostly 'light industry' stuff.
