Hi I’m Zach, I’ve got experience with mobile development, web development, and I love Nix. I have a career gap due to taking time to address some health issues, losing hundreds of lbs and getting into bodybuilding. That is the hardest fought and proudest achievement I’ve ever accomplished. It took a lot of sacrifice but it was well worth it. I am now more capable and disciplined than ever and am looking forward to get back into the swing of things.

Regardless of the wording, the family example still comes off as extremely rude IMO.

> doesn't it get old to have to clean the cup and a set of spoons after every use

sort of, but I just measure all the dry ingredients first, then the wet ingredients, and then put the cups/spoons in the dishwasher

> Why not pour directly into the mixing bowl that you put on a scale?

Recipes here very rarely give weights.

This is exactly why I started using Nix.

I think they meant commented-out code.

Even worse, they have both "most powerful ever" and "most powerful yet" in the copy. That reads really sloppy to to me.

This seems to have been released in 2013 (correct me if I'm wrong), long after Apple's.

But I like your solution better
