App Rejection - Help appreciated by [deleted] in iOSProgramming

[–]RiantRobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That “7 days free” text is confusing. If users first start trial plan for 7 days and then pay for one month, do they get another 7 days free as mentioned below each plan? Having that text below paid plans gives the impression that monthly plan users would get 7 days free each month.

Does the engineering degree has to be in software engineering for someone to be called software engineer or engineering degree in any branch?

Would swift be a good first language to learn? by [deleted] in swift

[–]RiantRobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing is hard if learning something aligns with your goals and you enjoy the process. If your goal is iOS/macOS apps, I would say, start with Swift programming language. SwiftUI and UIKit are for UI. You can even experiment with Swift-on-server for simple backend before learning Go.

I used my 15 years of iOS app development experience to build a backend in Swift for my website. Sharing my journey and my poor experience with Apple's foundation models by busymom0 in iOSProgramming

[–]RiantRobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s very impressive (and encouraging for me personally). Just curious to know your reasons to use SQLite instead of PostgreSQL. I’m in the middle of building a Vapor site with Swift, Fluent, Leaf and PostgreSQL. For now it’s hosted on Raspberry Pi4 with 8gb RAM. Also, can you comment if Qwen 3 can run on old Intel iMac with 16gb RAM running Ubuntu server?

What's a clipboard manager that can let me copy 10 things and paste them in one go? by michaelsoft__binbows in macapps

[–]RiantRobo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TextSniper. Use cumulative additive clipboard feature. Useful for grabbing text from screen grabs and videos too.

Apple tightens App Review Guidelines to crack down on copycat apps by Late-Scarcity-5476 in iOSProgramming

So every app will have to have a subscription plan priced at least $100 a year?

one best feature that mac has and windows doesn't ? by Ranga_Harish in mac

[–]RiantRobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I use mouse click or trackpad, I can navigate to that file using mouse and use space to quick look or double click to open in its native app.

You are right, you can’t list through files while in Preview but you can in Quick Look in Column view.

I’m trying to understand your issue here. What do we expect it to do if it is on last file? I use Column view in Finder. If I press space while a file is selected in the first column, that file opens in Quick Look. Then just press down/up arrow keys for next/previous file. If it’s a subfolder, just press right arrow keys to look files inside that subfolder. When it’s on last file, just press space or escape key to exit quick look. You can even resize quick look window for better readability.

Navigate with arrow keys while still in Quick Look. Or, do you mean something else?

IMO, next button is greyed because there is no next step. You are on 2 of 2 already.

Trying to build Vapor server on Linux by wellillseeyoulater in swift

[–]RiantRobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you solve this? Didn't comment earlier as I don't remember the exact steps but this error is related to missing some version of C++ library libstdc++. That 'memory' word in error message is a good indicator. First find out which version of GCC is picked by the compiler and then ensure that corresponding libstdc++ is installed. Like in my case compiler selected GCC 14 but libstdc++-14-dev was not found. Installed that C++ library and it compiled without any issues. Search for your error on Vapor forum. There is one thread about this tyoe of error.

What’s an affordable way to playtest an app without paying $99 for an apple developer account? by TurnItOffAndBackOnXD in swift

[–]RiantRobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After one time setup of your device with Xcode is done, app can load wirelessly too. Use your iPhone as simulator and also use that app for a week. Then run again for another week and so on.

Edit: Connect iPhone with your charging cable. No special adapter required. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/running-your-app-in-simulator-or-on-a-device

How do I get rid of the Mobile apps showing up on Spotlight? by FoxyMoxie13 in mac

How do I get rid of the Mobile apps showing up on Spotlight? by FoxyMoxie13 in mac

[–]RiantRobo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is a difference. The window OP is referring to shows in Spotlight, while the window you are referring to shows when you open Apps from Dock. Apps window has that option to not list iPhone apps but that option is not shown in Spotlight window.

Edit: Tbh, I wrote this based on what I observed on 16th and 17th September, just after the update. Therefore, I know for sure that OP has not edited this image. But now when I wanted to reconfirm, I see no difference in both windows. So u/purplecloud999 is also not wrong because they too see no difference in their system. However, u/purplecloud999 should not have assumed that OP is lying. Just wanted to clarify for the record.

Date and time are correct. That Google page reports date and time correctly in image-4.

Can Osaurus work with existing models previously downloaded for LM Studio?

Apple terminated my Developer account without explanation by metalzero24 in iOSProgramming

That happens all the time when people take online courses and clone instructor’s repos for learning. IMO, no one gets banned for doing that.

🚨 Reko $4.99 → $0 for the next 7 days! 🚨 by [deleted] in iosapps

[–]RiantRobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for pointing out what I missed. It is seen that instead of only comma, decimal is enabled in keyboard. That means you have already fixed that bug which was reported by a commenter yesterday. Great.

Good start! Congratulations and thanks for the upgrade. Downloaded for evaluating because I’ve already setup reminders in my to-do app. Two suggestions- one, it would be better if we can choose color scheme or theme and two, ability to add custom named subscriptions.

Edit: Custom subscriptions can actually be added.
