I've used both in the past 2 years and can tell you these particular systems aren't meaningfully different in any way that affects third party apps.

What specifically are the ux differences?

by nfw2 6d ago
I agree. Design as if it doesn't exist incidentally is also how they design for iOS where it doesn't exist.

Why does Shopify need to use Apple's or Google's branded design language in their app?

There is an implication here that the back button is a microcosm that represents the differences holistically but it's not. It's a small one-off exception that doesn't even affect the design choices made for the various apps.

The capabilities of Android and iOS don't meaningfully differ for the purposes of Shopify; Shopify doesn't need LIDAR. Most large brands throw the UI design patterns of the platforms out the window in favor of their own UI guideli

The main cost of two engineering teams shipping identical products in my opinion isn't the cost of those extra engineers, it is in the product and organizational challenges of keeping those two products that need to be identical in syn

It always seemed a missed opportunity that Microsoft Flight Simulator doesn't have a UFO mode or something where you don't need to worry about the physics of keeping the plane in the air and could just stop and look at things. May

tbh it read mostly like gibberish to me, but seemed possible there might be some poorly-articulated but otherwise coherent point about the difference between the technical difference of a supply or demand curve "shifting" vs the t

This just seems like "well ackshually" pedantry that is ironically incorrect. The supply and demand curve as a specific mathematical model describes commodity markets which housing isn't. Supply and demand are still useful co

Evergreen licenses are incredibly common when selling software, not just games. Your suggestions are either: - make publishers distribute goods without anti-piracy protection - make buyers pay for games on an ongoing basis rather than just

There IS a reason they don't make it possible to download the game copies directly, which is it becomes trivially easy to perfectly replicate and distribute new copies online, which is not true of any physical good. People who aren&#x2

Using the word "Buy" to mean buy a license, then having an agreement where the details of the license are explained isn't fraud lol

by nfw2 2mo ago
That is what I suggested. The other poster said what you are suggesting shouldn't be allowed, not me.

Rent and Subscribe would NOT be clear because they imply ongoing payment. Consumers care mostly about if they are paying money once or on an ongoing basis, not abstract things like DRM.

Access to an online server is clearly a service, hence the word "server"

The word subjective is not itself subjective. People understand the definition of the word subjective.

by nfw2 2mo ago
> Why not make the store change what they sell from being a license and making it a product as the consumer expected? Because we have a free market not a command economy? Publishers can sell whatever they want

An online server is a service. People don't lose access to offline games, generally speaking.

1. Network transfer time depends on size of data payload and will basically always dwarf cpu operations unless something is seriously messed up 2. Query performance is dependent on the query and table size. They won't all be < 1msec

Obviously, this means using raw SQL instead of an ORM, as the article was discussing the trade-offs of the two and wasn't a 101 course on what SQL is
