I don't. Making something popular requires a tonne of work. Again, this has always been the case, even for traditional physical products. If you're going to make a competitor for something, expect an uphill battle. As I…
Which is a fair comment to make, but ultimately without the protection of Section 230, Twitter or Facebook would have never allowed Trump on the platform in the first place. The risk of being held accountable (ie.…
Yes, I do. To live in a bubble and not expose yourself to things you don't like is to live a life of blissful ignorance. That may work for you, but I like to be educated and have insight.
I think you probably want Fargate for that. This announcement is great if you need to package stuff inside your container for use at Lambda runtime.
The main problem there is you are not able to pay a premium for IAP subscriptions. Apple mandates that functionally equal options cost the same inside the app as outside, despite Apple taking the 30% cut for IAP.
No, of course not, but Apple is essentially triple dipping in this regard. Lets break down the costs. 1. A $100 annual developer subscription. It could be argued that this goes towards SDK development, developer…
Thanks, I appreciate that. And while I do see their offerings as vastly different in many ways, I do see the parallels you mention. Speaking personally, and as as a lifelong gamer, I place great value in being able to…
And if this thread were about my employer and their policies, I may choose to weigh in on them also. Saying that, console games are more often than not the size of a Blu-ray disc, with triple-A games exceeding 40-60Gb…
No, but I don't understand the relevance, much less why a developer would do that (or why Apple would ask for it)? Of course a developer could just raise prices elsewhere to make the cost equal to that on iOS if they…
Consumers have the choice, but developers don't. Its been proven countless times over the years that Android users are much less likely to pay for applications than iOS users. As a developer, if you want to survive and…
But you don't pay 30% more - if it was the case that devs were allowed to make the iOS in app purchases 30% more than the counterparts, that would be fine (well, not fine, but at least it would give the people options).…

Sure - but if you ever want it to be as flexible as GQL, you need to implement...a query language?
With less flexibility, and more round trips.
Of course it is, the wholesale cost of data is peanuts comparatively. However there is _more_ money to be made by marking it up and charging $X per GB above an arbitrary cap.
I would argue that all machines, on Earth or otherwise, should run on UTC! Only when interacting with a human should the output be converted to the local time of that human.
It's exactly what I expected, and I regret trying it.
Google is not merely a reference. As soon as it scrapes a site it caches it, and hosts the summary, and makes the cached version available.
His assessment on how “Big Mail Corps” accept mail is plain wrong from my experience. When I ran my own mail server, I had SPF, DKIM, rDNS and strict DMARC setup correctly, and got 10/10’s on mail-tester.com. Admittedly…
I still don't understand how. Regardless of who ends up using the phone, surely the original purchaser/signer is still on the hook for the monthly payments? ie. If I buy a contract iPhone from AT&T then unlock and sell…
IE was superceded by Edge a long time ago. I'm not arguing for a different choice of browser, I'm arguing for them not to ship deprecated browsers.
The fine goes to the vehicle owner not the driver. This is why if you get fined by an automated speed camera or red light camera on a rental car, the rental company pay the fine and charge it back to you - with admin…
The comment on randomly opening windows is fair (I don't see what caused it either), but this was a build VM, not a workstation - there is no reason to upgrade the browser. A more pertinent question is why are MS still…
Worth noting that trains with a locomotive up front are quite rare these days (although most common in the US - Amtrak Acela notwithstanding). Most of the rest of the world has gone down the "multiple unit" route, where…
The enforcing entity here is the central bank they both have accounts with. If a customer of Monzo sends £10 to a customer of RBS, then that money never leaves the central bank, and both records are just updated. But…
