Is this going to be open source? Or a commercial product? I don't think most iOS devs would want to use a closed-source library, not necessarily because they're averse to paying for something, but because the UX of using one is much worse.

- There's generally no dependency management, or you're forced into using Cocoapods, and using it in a bad way (binaries in your repo).

- You're at the will of the vendor for additional features (framework, Swift nullability/generics integration, bitcode), and, if they're even available, dependency bumps. This gets really painful. Every time I used a closed-source framework, it ends up being a nightmare.

This is compared to:

- Add line to Cartfile

- carthage update

- A little drag and drop

- Done, future releases will probably Just Work

You might have better luck with people that aren't necessarily "iOS devs", i.e. games, where using closed-source is more common and they might not even be using Xcode.

One thing to note: Carthage usage is invisible, since frameworks built with Carthage are just Plain Old Frameworks. So people that have migrated from Pods to Carthage will be hard to track.

Using an unmaintained networking stack should terrify you.

Scary how many of these are obsolete or outdated.

"Bolts-iOS" is a dependency of "facebook-ios-sdk", which means that 19 of the top apps are using an outdated version of the Facebook SDK that predates Bolts, and might be vulnerable.

You've never been to a Whole Foods?

Healthcare is a benefit in the UK? I thought it was socialized?

Well, that's why they give acquihired employees a whole bunch of RSUs. I worked for a boring corporate acquihirer for a while because they were paying me the stock equivalent of my salary (which also increased) every year.

Sorry, you're totally correct - this assumes someone that isn't performing strength-based exercise!

Did potatoes, sugar cane, and olives stop being plants...?

Anyone who eats above their TDEE for an extended period will become obese, which is trivially possible on a vegan diet of french fries topped with sugar and olive oil. What does this have to do with a vegan diet?

Since you're asking personal medical questions, my blood pressure/blood tests are all nominal, my RHR is ~55, and I eat a high-protein vegetarian diet, with the primary protein sources being skim greek yogurt, whey powder, eggs, tofu, edamame, and seitan. Besides that I mostly eat vegetables and noodles.

But you just have to eat less beef - spinach isn't inherently obesity-preventing, if you somehow eat 2500 calories of spinach (I mean, good luck, but...) but only expend 2000 per day, you'll gain weight!
