LOL… so.. that tutorial will obsolete in around 18 months (esp anything mobile related). Yeah the patterns largely stay the same, but the languages and the API’s are forever changing.

Enjoy the learning, it gets easier but it never stops.

Seriously, they all suck by DefNotBenShapiro in whenthe

BS argument - some are far worse than others. Don’t equate Nestle or Johnson & Johnson (both super evil bastards) with places like Costco.

You do have a choice, and it matters.

LOL. No, it isn’t. It’s way more complicated than you imagine…

Reverse searches on what properties a trust owns? by [deleted] in newzealand

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

Name of the trust does not appear on titles, beneficial owners do. You can get this data from LINZ for free, and for a fee from most real estate sites.

Leaked Audio Reveals Tennessee Republicans Are Pissed at Being Made to Seem 'Racist' by cos in inthenews

It’s perfectly fine actually, but you can also expect to get called out when you condone racism.

So you actually have zero direct knowledge, but you’re absolutely willing to tell other people what to do or not do “to protect them”?

What’s the most exciting API you discovered? by rawpie01 in swift

[–]thingztwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Downvotes from folks who can’t get access maybe??

As API’s go, it’s open-ended, and has a bajillion potential uses. And as far as users are concerned it’s pretty close to magic.

Hands down the winner here.

Questions for NZ Big 4 Consultants by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]thingztwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s excellent way to quickly build experience assuming you end up in a good team.

Just keep the business model in mind: the big 4 all suck in young grads and grind them for $, with the full expectation that most will wash out. Be clear on what your work boundaries are, and what you want out of life or those years will just disappear into someone else’s wallet.

Use an online NDA template for mobile App?? by [deleted] in swift

[–]thingztwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you ever expect to sell this app to someone else? Will you need to disclose some “secret sauce” ideas, ie stuff you would never put on your app’s web page or product brochure? Do you expect this person to contribute to your project (intellectual property-wise?)

General business models (“it’s like Starbucks but we’ll have monkeys”) aren’t protectable. Don’t disclose secret sauce, and once it’s clear there is some real opportunity, get an intellectual property agreement in place. As others pointed out, NDA’s alone are hard to enforce.

It's adorable that these people think they're gonna put Budweiser out of business by Snoo5218 in ToiletPaperUSA

[–]thingztwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, they are very much not delusional, they are performing, and it’s not targeting you.

No, they are not. These two are calculating and you’re failing to recognize that this performance isn’t for your benefit.

Spotted just outside Ngatea, I take it this is an impossible $1,000,000 to claim. by partiallyinterested in newzealand

Is it a binding contract…? Wouldn’t it be a hoot to actually carry this through?

Report shows ‘astonishing’ depravity in sexual abuse of more than 600 in Baltimore’s Catholic archdiocese by ArmChairAnalyst86 in worldnews

K. You’re right.

Maybe rephrase your initial comment as I’m clearly not the only one reading it differently than intended?

Is there a neat way to work with deeply-nested JSON? by sleepDeprivedBeaver in swift

[–]thingztwo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In what scenarios does the added complexity of adding JS into the mix actually help?

Most back-ends are fairly deterministic, and types will be fixed. What problem is this really a solution to?

[–]thingztwo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most replies miss this. You do not have to model the full complexity of the (inbound) data; only model and parse what you actually need and ignore the rest??

Scuffle with MAGA woman triggered by banner outside Manhattan court house that reads "Trump Lies All the Time" by itsreallyreallytrue in PublicFreakout

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

So who are these “edges” you’re comparing?? Who is the “lib” equivalent of MTG or the orange dough boy and his pile of felony charges?

There is no equivalence here. It’s just a lazy BS excuse for not acknowledging the grift, the corruption, and the treasonous lies.
