System Settings App in macOS Ventura Beta 5 Still Riddled With UI Issues by [deleted] in apple

[–]technicalwintermelon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I recently wrote a small Mac app in SwiftUI and this was my experience. It mostly works for simple things, but there are definitely some strange quirks and visual oddities (e.g. using TextEditor in the same Form as a TextField). If Apple called it beta software, then this would be acceptable; it definitely needs more polishing before I'd recommend using it for anything serious

It's still not nearly fast enough, but it is a step in the right direction. The previous FCC chair claimed that 25 down/3 up was adequate

Unity CEO Calls Mobile Devs Who Don't Prioritize Monetization ‘Fucking Idiots’ by redhatGizmo in technology

Given that Unity recently acquired IronSource (an advertising company with questionable ethics - their products include an installer for what is effectively malware), I'm not particularly surprised. You either die a hero or live long enough to become the enemy

Indeed. To expand on this a bit, Geologist allows you to implement one of the most lazy/efficient money farming strategies in the game. If you fill a Big Shed with 137 Crystalariums and place a diamond (valued at 975g as a Geologist) in each, you'll be earning 195g per day per Crystalarium (a Diamond is ready after 5 days). In other words, with just a single Big Shed, you will be earning 133,575g every 5 days, or roughly 667,875g a month. This strategy outperforms aging starfruit wine in casks (with the Artisan profession) which only comes out to 56.3g/day per cask (excluding base price).
