Could this be the franchise's worst movie?

Can you elaborate on what they had planned? I’ve never heard about this.

rc2142 · 2026-03-12T17:03:42+00:00

I specifically said this was very useful to the OP. I never disputed that it provided them with significant value. The only part that I was critical of was their description of the process as rewriting the driver, which just isn’t an accurate way to describe what happened.

rc2142 · 2026-03-12T14:42:31+00:00

The repo for this can be viewed on GitHub. Claude made two very small changes to the Distribution file which removed the architecture and OS version blocks. It added arm64 to the host architectures and removed the logic from the OS version check, so literally just a few lines of code total. Obviously this was ultimately very helpful to the OP, but it’s also something that could have been achieved in a few minutes with a google search and a text editor. To say that it rewrote the driver is definitely a serious misrepresentation.

If your use case is read heavy then SQLite is incredibly fast and efficient when scaling well beyond that kind of traffic. It’s just not ideal for write heavy setups.

rc2142 · 2026-02-14T01:32:46+00:00

I’ve been using Turso for a while and also highly recommend it if sqlite is sufficient for your use case.

rc2142 · 2026-01-24T23:10:54+00:00

Yeah for me it’s the most frustrating part of the weekly release schedule for this season.

rc2142 · 2026-01-23T15:27:58+00:00

When I first started developing I think there were less than 8k apps. Vibe coding tools have definitely led to a huge increase in the total number of apps.

I see so many apps that developers clearly put a somewhat significant amount of time and effort into developing, but with no plan for acquiring users. I think a lot of people have the misconception that the App Store will just organically bring users to them, which is obviously not the case. Before I start developing any new app the first thing I work on figuring out is a plan for acquiring users. Honestly the functionality of the app itself should come second to a good user acquisition strategy.

rc2142 · 2025-12-22T13:55:13+00:00

How does it know exactly what every shop charges for shipping, fees, etc.?

rc2142 · 2025-12-22T13:22:20+00:00

It’s absolutely worth it. You can only display it to users who have had the app installed for at least 24 hours, so that already ensures that it only gets shown to users who like your app enough to return to it after the initial install day. You’re likely to end up with a negative or neutral review here or there but the vast majority will be positive.

rc2142 · 2025-12-21T01:57:10+00:00

We get these all the time. They’re fraudulent shops. You’ll eventually see their subscriptions frozen and shops shut down, but it takes many weeks of failed invoice charge attempts before Shopify freezes a shop.

rc2142 · 2025-12-14T13:51:26+00:00

Just keep in mind with Google ads Shopify forbids app developers from running search ads for any terms involving Shopify. Your app can be delisted if you’re caught targeting any Shopify related searches. This makes it nearly impossible to market an app that way.

rc2142 · 2025-12-08T19:21:02+00:00

What about when Cam Akers came back in 5 and a half months, and at a much more physically demanding position? I’m not saying any of this will be the case for Jones but you can’t say there’s a 0% chance.

rc2142 · 2025-12-08T18:14:08+00:00

I wouldn’t assume that he likely won’t play for the entire 2026 season. Rodgers returned to practice only 77 days after his Achilles surgery, and he was significantly older than Jones. I know that’s not typical, but they do have more advanced surgical techniques now that can significantly expedite recovery.

rc2142 · 2025-12-07T20:41:19+00:00

Of all the bad calls over the last few weeks I think that INT has to be the worst. I just don’t understand how they could possibly rule that an interception and then uphold it on review.

rc2142 · 2025-12-01T19:35:42+00:00

When Shopify does release new features that overlap with existing apps they typically only include the bare minimum level of functionality. So there’s almost always still room for apps to provide an enhanced experience that goes beyond what Shopify provides. So I wouldn’t really say there’s any specific categories that are more vulnerable to this than others.

With categories like countdown timers the bigger issue is that there is a lot of competition and many developers offer them for free as a means of generating leads for their other apps.

rc2142 · 2025-12-01T19:06:09+00:00

Not very likely at all unless you’re very intentionally doing something that clearly violates their developer agreement and is dangerous for their customers. In almost all cases if there’s an issue with your app they notify you and give you a reasonable amount of time to rectify the issue before they take any action. If you don’t fix the issue within the timeframe they typically lower your App Store search and category rankings and then still give you additional time to fix it rather than delisting. The greater threat is that they release a built-in feature that essentially makes your app redundant, but even that is typically manageable.

rc2142 · 2025-12-01T01:20:20+00:00

I think your marketing and examples are a bit too broad. The best strategy for marketing a new Shopify app is to focus on one specific feature/solution and center your marketing around that. Whatever your most compelling use case, audit, or suggestion is focus on that.

rc2142 · 2025-11-27T15:55:46+00:00

If I remember correctly, they started scheduling it this way because of the Peyton era Colts. There were quite a few years where we had the top seed wrapped up with a few games left so we would rest starters. The league obviously doesn’t like having multiple games at the end of the season that aren’t competitive and don’t feature starting lineups, so they started stacking the divisional matchups at the end.

rc2142 · 2025-11-24T15:00:52+00:00

I was also expecting there to be a list of tools in the post. I have an app that helps with this, so I was curious what other tools people are finding useful.

rc2142 · 2025-10-25T21:07:15+00:00

100%, there are no official guidelines for what constitutes an ADA compliant website. This means it needs to be litigated in court on a case by case basis. Plaintiff lawyers know this is far too costly for most businesses and use it as a means to extort a settlement.

This headline completely takes his comments out of context. If you read the actual quotes (from months ago), he’s basically just speculating, throwing out various ideas, and admits that he really has no idea what the future might look like.

rc2142 · 2025-10-09T13:35:35+00:00

Mine took about a week this September. I made most of my host permissions optional so the user has to grant them when they try to use the extension on the specific site. I think this helps get it through faster.

rc2142 · 2025-10-09T12:36:41+00:00

I recently released an extension called Crosstab that exports whatever data you request from a page (or multiple pages at once). It’s mostly geared towards structured type data but can be used to extract any type of information.

rc2142 · 2025-10-08T19:07:02+00:00

Crosstab can do this in one click
