I used Windsurf for quite long and they're basically dead for now after they became Devin. Everything feels dull and they're always several features behind while Cursor is just killing it every other week. I'm back to VsCode

Given the well-known hexagon on its north pole this decagon doesn't seem that surprising after all.

Deep sleep is a great option. Archive is a couple steps beyond that, it essentially makes it equal to the app being uninstalled, at the cost of a bit of a disk space.

The issue is that people often forget to uninstall these apps almost all the time. Apps like Delta, Southwest etc. are the perfect candidate for this. We require something similar to ephemeral apps that exist only for a limited period and a

On Android, especially the most recent versions, the archive functionality for apps has been a lifesaver. It basically packs apps into a specific format, keeps their entire state, and stores it on the disk. This also completely stops the ap

This is likely a small side track that emerged recently..... but i'm afraid that's not really the situation. the younger generation utilizes a ton of social media, and they would need to rely on smartphones just for that.

Folding phones aren't going away; they're becoming more mainstream. The initial versions of folding phones that came out five or six years ago had issues and some aspects that weren't addressed. But we are literally in the si

Dude thank you for making AltTab. Recently you've introduced the pro version and paywalled some features behind it. That's totally fine and I bought the pro version but my honest 2c for you is...25 bucks for a window switcher app

And also, pretty much any internet-generated social media content, basically. Reddit is another classic example. If you look at many posts in subreddits containing a huge number of users, you could easily tell it is AI-generated, especially

Interesting. Instagram and Facebook both seem to be filled with AI-generated fake crap today. Even the so-called news items that I see there seem to be fake. I don't even know who would be subscribing. Especially to Facebook as of toda

I think their only advantage in the business is pricing somewhat lower than comparable MacBooks and also having the option of replacing individual parts. But I think MacBooks, especially with AppleCare, are an irreplaceable deal. They cost

I started hating Google Search because of its relentless AI dumps on the results page, but I have also stopped using it at all, more or less. I got the Google AI Pro plan, which gives Gemini access by default with generous limits, and also

Not just Facebook, but also make sure to avoid TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, along with YouTube Shorts. Many of them are just nothing but fake AI content, and these days people are using AI to create fake profiles of good-looking, cute gir

I would disagree here. You probably need OAuth with popular social services and implement username, password or OTP-based auth overall. For an MVP, you don't need to care about more details beyond this; it is hardly 10% of the entire e

I will 100% agree with this. It just feels very scary to see entire teams completely handing off all coding needs and testing needs and also design needs for that matter, to AI. This not only makes people lose their touch but also allows th
