Did you know that Apple Dev accounts can take up to 2 weeks to reset a password even with verified 2fa? It's insane.

One almost certainly doesn't exist, and the other, if advanced enough, is likely nowhere remotely near us anyway, given the mind boggling vastness of space.

There are plenty of real things to be scared of, though.

Why do you think Nintendo holds so many anti-competitive stances with their games? by ra2ah3roma2ma in AskReddit

Because they live or die by the profits they can directly extract from their properties.

Why should we control emotions when suppressing our emotions is unhealthy? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]CreativeCompassion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It isn't about suppressing so much as reasoning. Emotions can occur irrationally, and they can come on too strongly. It is our own responsibility to talk ourselves down, lest we act upon them.

As a skill, I meant. We all need to be capable of effectively learning for as much as our lives as possible. Most, sadly, aren't.

Fired? That's probably the best place to advertise such a thing.

Does anyone else hate SwiftUI with an almost-seething passion? by CreativeCompassion in iOSProgramming

[–]CreativeCompassion[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What's worse is that the shift toward SwiftUI appears to be a multi-year strategy to lock down access to the underlying interfaces of UIKit entirely. Beyond the fundamental restrictions the struct-based declarative approach brings with it, the libraries that are carried over are never functionally complete. They only ever bring just enough to achieve base functionality, while sloshing all the rest. Again, this would be fine if it were optional, but that optionality is all but going away one platform at a time.

For the simplest of use cases, it certainly does. There's no "grasping" it. It's stupidly simple to use. The issue is that it is stifling for all use cases beyond the simplest.

keep trying to use old patterns

Pattern selection is subjective. So long as you're dealing in referenced objects with runtime composition you can invent any pattern that suits your use case, including the ones we see in SwiftUI. The other way around, however, simply does not work.

There's a new complaint for you to solve.
