It keeps asking if I want to run the app after building it. I reply yes, and then it says it can't do that, tries to build again by command line and gets stuck... (even with approving the command)

I recently bought an oral-b toothbrush with the AI app thing, and it’s worked really well. Something about making the little dots disappear mean I’m now cleaning my teeth properly for 2m30s. Wish I’d had it a lot earlier and maybe I wouldn’t have so many fillings. (I swear this isn’t an ad, I bought it on prime day thinking I’d probably return it).

Also I doubt it’s AI, just doing something fairly basic with the accelerometer data

Looks like they've weakened the requirements by only requiring it for apps that add the dependency after May 1.

Why don't you just scan the alcohol last then?

It’s questions like these that made StackExchange worth visiting and browsing. When they decided to be super strict about being on topic it made the quality of the sites go downhill a lot. Now there is much less reason for experts to hang out on the sites and while there provide answers to new questions.

When the transition started the first LED bulbs were awful. They have come a long way since then.

Ok but in the UK (and Europe im guessing) we had the ban on the old bulbs ages ago and yeah it was weird at first and the early LED bulbs were awful blueish white. But the bulbs are the correct color, the packaging has what tint the bulb is. Some people have smart bulbs that can change color completely and dim from apps and voice assistants.

The idea that the old bulbs shouldn’t be banned is ridiculous. You only have to look at other countries than the US to see yes it can be done and yes the world doesn’t end.

Says it's a perfectly functioning phone and then lists how it's not because it's old and got worn out. apps requiring later versions is an issue but the % of people on old iOS versions is really quite small. It makes no sense to waste development time on implementing something for <1% of customers on iOS 14, when you could use a newer API in one line of code.

They don't have to be sentient. It doesn't need to be better at creating software than humans. It needs to be cheap and good enough. Most apps and websites are pretty similar, eg, blogs, storefronts. We have whitelabel apps and websites already, they're about to become a lot more customisable by a lot more people.

It's the same as IKEA, it's not as good quality as a handcrafted table from the 1800s. But it works well for most situations and most people.

I can't see how this is correct. The spinning dancer works because there's no details on it.

When I realised that branches were just labels pointing to a commit, instead of a an actual "branch" ie a group of commits, then everything made a lot more sense. I still kinda wish branches were more groups of commits, so that if you have multiple branches on top of each other they can automatically/more easily keep up to date.

I don’t see how it’s that different to Swift? All that would be needed is a ? after `dict` and a direct comparison to true.

dict.containsObjectForKey[@"a"]

Becomes roughly

dict?.containsObjectForKey(“a”) == true

Literally was looking for this software about 5 hours ago because of this..

I would love this so much, but uploading the IPA would be a bit of an issue :/ it would be impossible at my previous company (a large supermarket) and now I’d have to get justification. It would be good to get a little bit more info on how it works or rather have the results of a demo app that can be accessed :)

I've actually found SwiftUI previews work fairly well, have to admit they get better with every Xcode version, and I don't understand why sometimes they need to recompile. Using them I generate snapshot tests automatically, and an app for our designer to see the various UI components on device through TestFlight. Currently only for our UI components library, but I'm hoping to expand the automatic snapshot testing to the app at some point.
