As a fellow European, preventing the value of your house dropping because your neighbors didn’t clean up their front yard.

You care about unmowed frontyards? No wonder your country is going to shit if this is what you’re worried about.

They say it’s because they create a game around good gameplay and write the story around it later.

iPads used to be able to function as home hubs but they explicitly removed that feature a few years ago and made it Apple TV exclusive .

With 20 years of experience with web development and 10 years of experience with DevOps engineering I want to continue building easy-to-use products that are accessible for everybody.

I mean, one of the last big things Jobs did was buy Siri and he reportedly saw it as the next big interaction model. Apple just messed it up by letting it get progressively worse ever since.

Which was pointed out by a HN user in the comments of that post. This article claims they suddenly found out the same thing through research. Sure.

I hate to be the Apple fanboy but an anecdote is far from “patently incorrect”. Never had any issues with my AirPods with third-party devices.

You are mistaken. Merchants are allowed to round to the nearest 5 cents and you can’t do anything about it (except pay by card). Of course, budget stores like Lidl and Aldi still use them but any other corporation is not going to care.

There is nothing “industry way” about letting CI automatically deploy your production environment.

I’m interested to hear which country forces a cookie banner for any cookie, because the EU only requires it for tracking cookies and this website does net specify whether it’s used for that purpose.

I’ve created websites with a cookie banner “because it’s required” even though there were no cookies involved. The idea that every website needs a cookie banner is more hurtful than the cookie banners themself.

It took a little while but YouTube has stopped recommending shorts after doing exactly this. They still appear in my subscription feed but it’s less bothersome because they’re from channels I actually watch.

> As others have also observed, permissions such as MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE have been rampantly abused in the past, often in horrific ways.

The lack of consideration for this point in this thread scares me. The amount of data that can be taken from a device through a permission like this is likely huge and it’s not just about “protecting users from themselves”. I wouldn’t feel safe enabling it for any app, and while syncing all data on the device sounds very useful, it’s a damned if they do, damned if they don’t scenario for Google.
