This is true of the CLIs that start with `xcode` but not of the CLIs that start with `swift`. As `swift-format` and `swift-test` have come into their own, they're just as reliable as any other language ecosystem. And the difference is indeed staggering. I wrote this guide last summer on extracting all your app's code into a (nonsensically necessary) Swift package dependency simply so you can test it with Swift Testing https://justin.searls.co/posts/i-made-xcodes-tests-60-times-...
That’s why you should break out all of your code into SPM packages/targets. The workspace code only really needs to be the entry point, lifecycle and maybe target-based dependency injection (if you’re into that) or environment config since your SPM dependencies don’t know about your projects preprocessor macros (I.e. `#if DEV` `#if APP_STORE` etc.).
This is madness. Some stories actually have good guys. I don't know Adam directly, but we have plenty of second degree connections. I've benefited immensely from his work, have never heard anyone say a single negative thing about him, and I genuinely believe he's done more to push the web forward with Tailwind than the larger players have done (certainly more than Facebook did with React and Google has done with Angular/AMP/etc).
Reflexively assuming that unanimous positive sentiment towards someone is itself an indication of a problem is exactly the reason people are writing posts as recently as (double checks) _yesterday_ titled "65% of Hacker News Posts Have Negative Sentiment, and They Outperform" https://philippdubach.com/standalone/hn-sentiment/
May I humbly suggest taking a breath or two? It is extremely taxing mentally to select strangers to tell you don’t trust them in an imaginary crisis. (Especially ones on a tech discussion board! Especially just because they noted there were no negative comments and only fawning ones! Especially when you think fawning feels fine in a crisis!)
May I pull you aside and suggest you take a few breaths yourself? If you're finding typing half a sentence on a keyboard taxing, perhaps consider getting some support.
POSSE Party (http://posseparty.com) supports syndicating YouTube Shorts and Instagram reels, but trying to syndicate longer form video just didn't make sense IMO
I created POSSE Party because I had similar concerns. Truncation and spacing are highly customizable. You can add a posse:post sidecar element containing JSON that formats exact presentation for each platform exactly as you want it. The built-in truncation can be configured at the account level. And how you count characters, naturally, differs by platform, which the app handles pretty well.
This is pretty much all that OpenAI is at the moment.
Mozilla is a non-profit that is only sustained by the generous wealthy benefactor (Google) to give the illusion that there is competition in the browser market.
OpenAI is a non-profit funded by a generous wealthy benefactor (Microsoft).
Ideas of IPO and profitability are all just pipe dreams in Altmans imagination.
Few months ago, the founder was talking about "AGI" and ridiculous universal basic compute. At this point, I don't even know whom to believe. My first hand experience tells ChatGPT and even ClaudeCode are no where near the expertise they are touted to be. Yet, the marketing by these companies is so immense that you get washed away, you don't know who are agents and who are putting their true opinions.
- Making functions async without need; it doesn't know the difference between the two or in which scenarios to use them.
- Consistently fails to make changes to the frontend if a project grows above 5000 LOC or a file goes near 1000 LOC.
- The worst part is it lies after making changes.
ChatGPT:
- Fails to implement mid-complex functionality such as scrolling to the bottom when new logs are coming in and not scrolling when the user is checking historical logs.
These models are good at mainstream tasks, the snippets of which you find a lot in repositories. Try to do something off-beat such as algorithmic trading; they fail spectacularly.
I'm unsure how someone could use LLMs regularly and not encounter significant mistakes. I use them a lot less than some devs and still run into basic errors pretty often, to the point that I rarely bother using them for niche or complicated problems even though they are pretty helpful in other cases. Just in the past few days I've had Claude trip all over itself on multiple basic tasks.
One case was asking how to do a straightforward thing with a popular open source JavaScript library, right in the sweet spot of what models should excel at. Claude's whole approach was completely broken because it relied on a hallucinated library parameter that didn't exist and didn't have an equivalent. It invented a keyword that doesn't appear in the entire open source library repo, to control functionality the library doesn't have.

Good way of phrasing things. Kinda sad to read this, I tried to react with 'wait there is competition in the browser market', but it is not a great argument to make - without money for using Google as a default search engine, Mozilla would effectively collapse.
The main issue there is you need someway to pay the engineers in that transitional period the moment Mozilla collapses. Otherwise they leave, find new jobs, and you lose all the expertise and knowledge of the codebase.
Funny, had it tell me the same thing twice yesterday and that was _with_ thinking + search enabled on the request (it apparently refused to carry out the search, which it does once in every blue moon).
I didn't make this connection that the training data is that old, but that would indeed augur poorly.
At what point in history have you owned a particular piece of hardware for use with a particular piece of never-to-be-updated software and installed a major OEM operating system release a full 7 years after release without issue?
I doubt such a thing has ever happened in the history of consumer-facing computing.

Come on. I've done that and still do: I use an ancient version of Adobe Acrobat that I got with a student discount more than 10 years ago to scan documents and manipulate PDFs. I'd probably switch to an open source app, if one were feature comparable, but I'm busy and honestly don't have the time to wade through it all (and I've got a working solution).
Adobe software is ridiculously overpriced, and I'm sure many, many people have done the same when they had perpetual-use licenses.

Linux users do it all the time with WINE/Proton. :-)
Before you complain about the term 'major OEM operating system'; Ubuntu is shipped on major OEMs and listed in the supported requirements of many pieces of hardware and software.

Comments like this show how low standards have fallen. Mac OS X releases have short support lengths. The hardware is locked down-you need a massive RE effort just to get Linux to work. The last few gens of x86 Mac hardware did not have as much, but it was still locked down. M3 or M4 still do not have a working installer. None of this is funded by Apple to get it working on Linux or to get Windows ARM working on it as far as I know.
In comparison, my brother in-law found an old 32bit laptop that had Windows 7. It forced itself without his approval to update to Windows 10. It had support for 10 years from Microsoft with just 10. 7 pushed that 10 to... hmm... 13+ years of support?
Not the same here. The user didn't have to get different binaries when they changed hardware, and that was a big selling point for the hardware. And now it's going to break in an arbitrary software update.
Not sure what you are saying. If you saying you need the gamedev to recompile for arm you can run a virtualization layer, just like Mac and Windows. My friend has had the best results with: https://fex-emu.com/

A few years ago, I installed Windows 10 on a cheap laptop from 2004—the laptop was running Windows XP, had 1GB of memory, a 32-bit-only processor, and a 150GB hard drive. The computer didn't support USB boot, but once I got the installer running, it never complained that the hardware was unsupported.
To be fair, the computer ran horrendously slow, but nothing ever crashed on me, and I actually think that it ran a little bit faster with Windows 10 than with Windows XP. And I used this as my daily driver for about 4 months, so this wasn't just based off of a brief impression.
