I feel 100x safer in a Waymo than an Uber in SF. That said I did have a Waymo lose its mind and take me to a random alley in Chinatown at 3am…that was fun.

We always used these in red teams…scatter them around the client’s office. Haven’t seen malicious thumb drives fail once bc there’s always someone thirsty enough to plug one in.

According to Netblocks this appears to be at the ISP level in Iran. Facebook would be in wild violation of OFAC sanctions otherwise.

After the first year of the pandemic I deleted all work apps off my phone — just remove the ability for Slack/Teams, GCal, Lattice, Figma, etc. to constantly badger you. People will call if it’s actually urgent. But gotta protect/

Agreed! What came in the door for 1x was expected (and did) leave for 3x. So 200% in the pocket?

Happy to help my dude! Paste me an error or screenshot or a debug log?

Patently untrue. This is — at best — a decade old retort.

It does not have to be recompiled. The entitlement is akin to SSL: it has to be renewed. Automated tools can do this for you. This seven day lie/conspiracy/flat-earth is disappointing.

Not a lawyer but that’s probably illegal in the states. (Also hilarious username is hilarious!)

Optimizing for people who want to side load ~and~ cannot click the build button in Xcode seems wild to me. (No disrespect!) It’s identical though in that <when one side loads> one is <completely disconnect from the ecosystem of the

Thank you for your thoughtful response! I think we’re in full agreement — which is weird on the Internet. > There is some reasonable cost involved […] Apple is just taking a profit like your corner store, COOP, Migros, etc. Is it reasona

Clone repo. Click build. Publish to yourself via TestFlight. Never think about it again.

There are endless KYC/AML requirements for entities that can transfer or emit USD. It’s completely reasonable that side loaded applications should not be entitled to use regulated payment services. Edit: Even Android will not entitle s

There is tooling to manage self-signed certs beyond the seven day window. Unrelated but I find it weird that “you have to compile the app” is a bad thing now.

Why does your grocery store deserve a cut? I’m struggling w how to apply this to other industries. I mostly support the argument that EVERY middleman is useless but…we kinda live in a world of middlemen.

iOS has allowed side loading for half a decade now. Companies that find $100 prohibitive have a free path that’s nearly identical to Android side loading.

Neither does Apple? You can side load whatever you want on an iOS device?

I can’t speak for every corner store, of course. The two SF owners I know very well and have helped with their books aim for 300%. They routinely hit this. Edit: for context the one in Noe did 2m last year.

Great example! In retail it’s bad if there isn’t a 300%+ markup. The fascination with making Apple a boogey man on this is bizarre. Your local corner store — which you should very much support! — has a markup that makes Apple look lazy.

“Unhoused” — esp families — are rapidly rehoused in SF. Those experiencing “chronic homelessness” (the ‘visible’ humans, who deserve the same amount of love and respect) are more often tied to mental health…just different things are helpful

We can’t solve mental illness with more quarter million dollar condos. I don’t know why this is still being peddled.
