It is a legit Apple app, released alongside iOS 12. Apple bought the app called Workflow which they've made their own, rebranding it to Shortcuts.

Obviously they could add it - it wouldn't be hard. Just because it doesn't have feature X doesn't mean it's bad. At that point it's a conscious decision to exclude that feature. Poor performing mobile sites? That is something they could for sure address, especially with the engineering power they have, I agree.

Twitter's been around for 10 years—and maybe it's just my perception—but I feel like the tech. media has never done anything but hate on them. It's well-founded criticism at times, sure, but at what point does it become a loop of negative attitudes simply based on pre-existing negative attitudes? That's just my take on the whole thing. I personally have some confidence in Twitter and have nothing poor to say about their product / direction.

I took a very similar sounding course at Purdue (CS 503) and would second all of these sentiments.
Ask HN: Does this genetic testing (ie, 23andMe) service exist?
I'm thinking of a service like 23andMe that instead takes 2 samples and outputs what the children of the two people would be like, what they'd be disposed to, what their traits might be, etc.I know this can be done at physician's offices to an extent (i.e., during family planning), but I was curious if there was anything cheap/simple out there available to the masses?Thanks!

I took the CS OS grad. course at Purdue last semester that taught OS principles using XINU. Overall, I think the OS is great. Used primarily for embedded systems (routers were the common example) it was simple, quite extensible and fun to learn.

I am enjoying the comments of people making counter-arguments to this post as they're probably the ones this article is directed towards.
Generic Example: "I'm not late to the morning meeting, I just not a morning person." No, sorry, you're still late.

Ask HN: Deciding which project idea to pursue?
Hello, friends. I've built a few small projects in my time and as a PhD student I enjoy working on smaller projects outside of my research to keep my skills honed and to keep my exposure to other programming languages, ideas, etc. up. I currently have a list of project ideas I'd like to start; I'd like to choose one that is not only fun to work on but one that may have the potential to turn...
