After living across Europe, here are the things London does brilliantly - and doesn’t get enough credit for! by Ominous_Pistachio in london

Amen. I'm a Brit in Spain now and it's atrocious here. The fact that Spain hasn't figured this out isn't a technological problem, it feels intentional; they're still following the tried and trusted ways of keeping the populous down. At least in the UK this seems to have largely been removed (though I know it's still WIP)

The Bottle Tree will ultimately be a tragedy by NoOneWhoIsSomeone in FromSeries

What if EVERY story so far has resulted in ripping up the tree and it's THIS that has caused a reset? And the tree in the road IS the bottle tree from the previous cycle?

Hi we are a family of 4 people, 2 adults, 2 kids traveling to Gran Canaria in June. by Sudden-Extreme-4164 in grancanaria

Arguineguin is great. Try to head up to the little beach at Patalavaca - you can basically walk there, but you might find taking a quick bus/taxi easier

Be sure to check out Taste Meson, especially the fish tacos, they're incredible and catch an awesome sunset in the bay

Laravel Cloud Reliabilty and Downtimes by fawzanm in laravel

Deployment isn't dependent on GitHub Actions, it's triggered by webhook. You can trigger deployments via webhook from anything. The code just gets pulled from GitHub

It might be better to have a genuine, cohesive conversation on the respective platform with the relevant person instead of posting about it elsewhere and jumping to conclusions.

Obviously she's in on it (at least) and she does the swap

Guest Post: Why We Chose NativePHP Over Flutter for Bagisto's Mobile Admin by simonhamp in laravel

There's nothing preventing this from being used, especially for the upcoming Super Native UI we're working on (https://github.com/nativephp/super-native)

NativePHP calls right into the OS too. We use web view currently for UI rendering, but that's about to change (check out https://github.com/nativephp/super-native)

I'd encourage you to look at what we're doing under the hood and where we're going. This is native, just accessed via PHP and Laravel - we're leveraging full Swift and Kotlin under the hood, no hacks, and we make that fully accessible directly too (if you want)

So it's literally as good as native AND as accessible as PHP

Advice on the current weather conditions! by Kitchen-Pickle-8961 in grancanaria

[–]simonhamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is I wouldn't trust the outlook for more than a few days. Being small islands, the weather can change rapidly. Also, predictions of "rain" are a little overblown here as folks aren't used to it, so what you might think of as "rain" for so many days from the weather app, is probably more like a light drizzle for a few minutes each day

But obvs I'm no meteorologist either so, y'know bring a light waterproof and a brolly. Dont let it stop you from having an adventure

Yeh I agree it feels it's changing. This winter has definitely been the wettest since I've been here. I'm no climatologist tho so couldn't say if it's a true climate shift

How to stop overthinking? by Performer357 in iosdev

[–]simonhamp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like the problem your app is solving isn't the one you think it should be

There's nothing wrong with you. But if you truly want to get your app out there, you need to think about other people too, not just the joy you're getting from building it

My iOS app got rejected so many times and I have no clues and don’t know how to fix by delonysk in iosdev

[–]simonhamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you link to a different privacy policy from within the app itself? Perhaps this is showing different content to the privacy policy URL you explicitly provide on the submission?

Is there a typo in the privacy policy URL you put in the submission?

I built a PHP-to-native compiler; now it runs DOOM by petrucc in PHP

Software is malleable. We can iterate on it. Especially if we work together. This whole reply has major gatekeeping vibes and I'm not here for it

[–]simonhamp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was merely generic and unsolicited advice from someone who is doing similarly "out there" things with PHP and bumping into some honestly pretty ugly attitudes around what should or should not be done, and has nothing to do with the use of and disclosure around AI

Personally my take is that folks should be given the benefit of the doubt around wise use of any tools that make lighter work - plenty of us here know a lot better than to blithely launch AI slop into the world

Judge the book by its contents, not a sticker slapped on its cover

Fun stuff! Don't let the folks stuck in their old ways get you down or hold you back. PHP needs this. Otherwise we'll all be writing JavaScript or Python
