> The argument against good low wattage cpus is just an inane and boring one.

> Not everyone needs 15+ hours of battery life.

Low wattage is not only about battery life. It is mostly about requiring less power for the same work. However you look at it, it is good for everyone. Now that Apple has shown that this can be done, everyone else will do the same.

> Google's behavior toward an entirely different group of users.

That’s also a wrong assumption. Android devs may very well be paid GCP customers if they had a great experience with the Android platform.

I am not talking about only full stack solo developers, I am also talking about companies with mobile apps with backend needs.

Banksy doesn’t want anyone to be profiting from his own work and he has every right to do so if copyright is used. Why would that mean he should accept their royalty offer? They can just stick to nature photos on their cards. How rich Banksy is nothing to do with this.

What the card company is doing is to take advantage of his desire to be anonymous and make money from his work.

I think total need for developers in the world increased so rapidly that we couldn't find people with enough experience and teaching abilities to educate new developers properly. If what Robert C. Martin claims is true, number of developers in the world doubles every 5 years.

So, I really think there is a competency issue here. However, I don't believe that it is restricted to the web; it is true for every platform. It is just that learning web technologies seems to be a better choice if you are new to programming as one can use those skills for almost every platform. (yeah you can use almost every language to develop for multiple platforms, but come on even Microsoft is using web tech for vscode)

As a system designed for "designers" with guidelines, I expected something like Material Design from Google. However, I am very disappointed, even the website UX is very designer unfriendly IMHO. I cannot see a download link or a direction for it in the home page for the mentioned Sketch file.

One of the reasons I love Golang is that comparison of structs is among their values, not their references.

To do so, compiler complains if you have circular struct type dependencies, but I think it is OK.

Another thing is Turkey is %90+ muslim so It is very odd that people call Erdogan islamist. So what? It is a muslim country.

You think like this but of those %90+ people, half of them don't vote for Erdogan and most of them still call him "islamist".

So, no, it is not OK to think that Islam is the same for you and me and people in IS (Deaş). That is what a secular government solves. You don't discuss things with religion interpretations, you discuss over actual facts.

I love these :D A little bit childish, yes, but why so serious? :)

One can use these, for example, as an easter egg or to add some emotion to the selected item. Sparingly, of course. Surprise people when they are bored of all those forms :)

I think you should keep a list of all the sites using these, so that people can get inspired.

Why not replace XCode with brew version entirely:

  sudo cp /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/git /somewhere/to/backup/just/in/case
  sudo rm /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/git
  sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/git /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/git
