The switches require that you pull them out, move them to the end position and then push them back down, and it was two switches. It could have still took off on one engine. This is essentially the turn off plane switch. It would seem to almost impossible that it would be an accident.

There is a difference between will have, and does have.

No, the 10k wasn't charged until the last year when all new cars had the hardware upgrade, but nobody should pay for FSD until it's out of beta.

Unless AP doesn't allow the driver to control the vehicle it is the drivers fault.

Let me guess, 6 months of free credit monitoring to make up for it.

Exactly. I'm a fan of Swift on the server, but this is the best they can do with marketing?

397 Swift files, 2K Obj-C.

Yes, as part of a project that has used Swift for the last year, migrating away from Objective-C on a decent size codebase, I can say it is not ready for primetime.

Swift 2.2 + Xcode 7 wasn't great, but it was livable.

Constraint SourceKit crashes makes Xcode essentially a text editor and not a good one. All indexing, highlighting essentially all IDE functionally lost.

This is the worst development experience that I've seen in 20+ years as a developer.

I thought the CoreData / CloudKit debacle from 3 years ago was bad, but oh my God, I just want to jump ship and go to Android, switch to Xamarin, or just leave mobile at this point.

It would be nice to have some level of optimism and say this is growing pains, but I don't have any faith that the Apple developers are competent in making this better.

Success is the exception to the general rule for most business endeavors.

This type of article comes out a few times a year.

Comparing to the Web. How many new web sites are brought up each day, and out of those how many will gain significant traffic, and generate any significant revenue?

But finding Apps is hard? Yes it could be better, but you can use the Web to your harts content to promote your App which is searchable, assuming that's the problem.

This makes me think of the guy who did the Carrot weather App. An independent developer that took an over saturated category and did something unique.

At the same time thousands of weather Apps, that all look like clones of each other where submitted to the App Store, and nobody cares, but the problem is the App Store right?

Hmmm what kind of developer is using a modified version of Xcode from some shady source?

I was just looking for something like this the other day...
