I definitely think that the same restrictions we put on tobacco advertising need to be applied to gambling apps.

Yes and I've seen reports of it being an ENTIRE GOOGLE ACCOUNT BAN.

I don't want to mess with antigravity because my google account is too entrenched in my life.

I'd still prefer password+2fa+backup codes for email.

Just spitballing here, but it seems like a good mix of phishing resistance & lockout recovery would be to have passkey-only auth, but with email recovery.

So no password login, but then you can recover your account by adding an additional passkey by receiving an email.

It could have been something as simple as lingering on some kind of content related to physical therapy on a social media feed before scrolling past it, or maybe your wife googled it and it got correlated via network?

For those of us out of the loop, could someone summarize the situation?

Also, the back 'button' is mostly a thing of the past in Android and it's more similar to iOS now with the predictive back gesture.

The Android back button is legacy.

And on top of that, they're losing the ability to ship hotfixes over the air and will always be at the mercy of apple & google to deliver their updates.

It's incredibly easy nowadays to drop down to native from react native where you need to.

I work on an open source app that uses a shared swift core for the iOS and android apps and I think it's awesome. I think having all your business logic in swift is great.

At work, we use react native, and although the upgrades and stuff are painful, I'd never give up the ability to ship over the air updates.

Over the air updates is SO valuable with react-native. Being able to ship hotfixes instantly to our users has saved our asses multiple times.

I absolutely love jj (just check my HN comment history). One thing I'd love to see in jj though that git does better is copy tracking. If somebody renames a file upstream, and you go to rebase your commit that touches that file onto main, jj doesn't handle this very well compared to git.

Do you have any idea if this is coming to jj soon?

Even if you don't use the immersive reading feature, it's really nice to be able to switch back & forth from reading to listening. It's nice to be able to start reading right from the sentence where you left off listening to the audiobook. Storyteller is a great e-reader and audiobook player regardless of if you use the immersive reading.

Also, it's just fun to have the audio narration as you read. I typically set the speed to like 2.5x when doing readaloud.
