Well, sure — and the issue with tests is we might end up with well-tested code that does the wrong thing.
That's literally the opposite of reality; the research and adoption have consistently produced code of extremely high quality, at great cost. The problem has always been: - It's extremely labour-intensive, and even…
Who or what is preventing you from exposing your children to whatever you’d prefer? The books aren’t banned.
Removing a book from the library is not a ban any more than a publisher rejecting a manuscript is a ban. Declining to provide a book is not the same as prohibiting the possession, use, or distribution of a book. As for…
Declining to buy and stock a book in a school library is not a ban at all. The book can still be printed, bought, and read. It’s not banned.
No, Apple employees originally authored the project on Apple’s time. And it was first hosted at OpenDarwin — which was Apple-run and not available for arbitrary public hosting. It was then hosted at OpenDarwin’s…
MacPorts supports everything all the way back to 10.5/powerpc.
Apple developed — and for many years afterwards, hosted —- MacPorts.
What is “monster-in-the-middle” and why is it being used in place of (presumably) “man-in-the-middle”?
I ran a company in NYC for six years before the taxes and onerous regulatory environment convinced me to bail. The final straw was when we had to hire a fixer to clear up a state regulatory error that would’ve destroyed…
You’re about to tie your names and reputations to this. I would strongly reconsider pivoting unless you actually want to work for no-name companies and on the shady side of technology for at least the next decade.
I genuinely can’t tell if this is naivety or willful ignorance, but at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter. This is in direct violation of the terms of service, and Apple invests a lot of money in keeping iMessage…

They developed AppleScript for people to do this individually, at limited scale. Push notifications, attached to an application or website, and controllable by a user on that basis, are the solution for corporate…
My existence couldn’t possibly be any more digital, and I can’t remember a single time I’ve had a SMS/RCS conversation with customer service or a scheduling agent. I don’t want to have one either. My message inbox is…
This is definitely going to get banned, and as a customer of Apple’s, I will be glad for it. I don’t need more iMessage spam.
What’s sad about that is we could have had a clean, native, desktop Figma application.
Step 1: Vibe-code a buggy, poorly-performing, 500k+ LoC desktop-installed monstrosity in TypeScript to implement a trivial TUI. Proudly note that you’re meeting a 16ms frame budget … for a trivial chat UI. Step 2:…
Your point is aptly demonstrated by the article — the car may still use tethering via Bluetooth to exfiltrate your data[1]. The workaround of always using a wired connection is both inconvenient and unreliable — the…
State ID (usually a driver’s license) is the defacto universal ID system. It’s not hard to get, and you need it to do everything from filling a scheduled prescription, buying alcohol, entering a bar, flying on a plane,…
Anyone arguing for “owning your bias” is trying to justify using media to influence instead of inform. We can never be perfectly unbiased, but we can certainly try. We dedicated entire higher education programs to the…
If you find yourself with a view of reality that massively differs from others, you have two options. (1) Assume they’re irrational, uninformed, and wrong, or (2) Reconsider your priors and attempt to understand why…
He hasn’t said what the parent said he did, and in the peer comment linking a video of him saying something similar, the context supplies quite a different meaning than was implied above.
Thanks for the context. He’s speaking to evangelical Christians that do not regularly vote, and in the context of instituting voter ID to secure future elections. ID is required to vote in most (all?) EU states.
