I've heard this very often. I am interested in knowing more about it. Is it just a matter of feeling or are there things you can pinpoint which work better for you? Compared to 4:3 (narrower) and 16:9 (wider)

My problem with ayurveda and other traditional stuff is people not realizing they were not your popular paracetamol tablets you could gulp down and be effective. These were wholesome lifestyles. So cherry picking parts may just not be effective for most people and gives traditional stuff a bad name.

I have benefitted immensely from yoga and parts of ayurveda and I laugh at people who dismiss them but I don't like them being cherry picked and tested which diminishes trust in them

from the ask-hn dept.

I have seen the "Scaling git at twitter" talkMy questions are:1) Is there a plan to open source or release a public version of the binaries for client and server? If no, does GPL licensing not force them?2) do they handle per file permissions or is their codebase completely open to all contributors?3) how much performance benefits do they actually get? (with the details of the test repository)I...

Ask HN: How does Twitter handle per file permissions in their Git monorepo?

There's Microsoft too but I think they have multiple git repos for different projects and maybe don't care for permissions. I've seen Microsoft guys around so they could answer as well.

How's the socialist system looking in your favourite state? https://i.redditmedia.com/_I-TTa_27v_hLt6LfZ97uj4oFrVrc1mB8y...

$30M were requested for this, for which Narendra MOdi can build 200,000 toilets, a number which is larger than the homeless population itself.

Somebody told me that cpu prices are like flight prices and your best bet is to buy a bit old.

What is the best time to buy a CPU? After how many months does the biggest drop occur?

Thanks for your very helpful and detailed reply.

I take it that you didn't compare xamarin to anything besides pwa- I'm assuming it's your way of saying that anything else you evaluated didn't stand up to xamarin?

Please let us know if there are any helpful getting started pointers and also for pitfalls.

Right now PWA is not something I'm considering although I see how they are the future (and am glad they are)

This doesn't even make sense. Blocking is blocking of network connection. Native apps still need that to talk back home

Can you tell us a bit about your Xamarin experience?

I want to create an app where the users would be regular mom and pop- my primary users would be windows and Android and a few iOS (iphone).

Would you recommend I go the Xamarin way?

Who is xamarin good for and who not?
