This is untrue. Apple was fighting EU the entire time trying to avoid a switch to USB-C on iPhones. EU representatives were publicly critical of Apple, eventually Apple was forced to give in.

It's super fast if you use Native AOT. My entire application starts up in 0.3 seconds, that includes Avalonia and all my code too. It does use more memory than I'd like though, about 200 MB.

Not really, Spotify was founded just 3 years later.

Actually, the great thing about this show is that it doesn't focus so much on the actual zombies, that just gets boring fast. This show is story driven and I really like that.

Way back many years ago Spotify used to be GREAT, the client was super efficient and easy to use did everything necessary, really.

But then they started butchering it more and more and now it's almost completely unusable.

I've been a paying customer since 2009 and I'm thinking of cancelling, I don't use it any more because it's just a mess.

Why Scandinavia? I live in Sweden and senior developers around here make less than half of what it seems like junior developers make in the US, and that's before taxes.

> Given all these great options, it's not clear to me why anyone would go back to a separate GUI tool?

For me it's the easily clickable URLs. Copying and pasting URLs in other CLI-environments on Windows is cumbersome at best.

I've been waiting for over a week to get my account verified so I can start using my account (I'm not in the US), but they only seem to verify a few hundred a day and there are still 5000 people ahead of me.. quite frustrating.

The commute card would actually be useful if only it would show public transit departures I can make, as it is now whenever I see the card it mostly shows subway trains that have already departed or a few that I can not possibly make it to in time.

Clicking the card only takes me to Google Maps where I get tons of irrelevant suggestions. Not helpful.

I do love the idea though. I'm hoping it will improve!

I've been waiting for an invite for well over a year, maybe two years, don't really remember. Frankly I'm more than a little annoyed. Why even bother having an invite feature if you never send out invites? It's just being dishonest.

There is a world of difference between push notifications and a service that presents a real time view of some state.

That is not all, there is also a distinct lack of contrast in both brightness and color all over, also all icons look pretty much the same so they're essentially useless.

In an effort to "focus on the content" everything else have taken a back seat, to hell with useability and a visually pleasing experience.
