>Now, I'm an anarchocapitalist and would love to see all of these costs unbundled, so that we each pay only for what we use.

Anarchocapitalism isn't anarchistic, as capitalism necessarily entails the establishment of at least two classes: the proletariat and bourgeoisie, defined in terms of the relationship to the means of production.

We are waiting since years for a simple xamarin studio for linux, even just supporting only ubuntu and letting the other distro to manage the packages for them... The reality is it seems they don't want at all to bring Xamarin on Linux, sadly Miguel was very clear about it in the years.

That looks good, thanks for the info. I remember trying a bunch of geofences with ifttt to try and do something similar. It was a little hit and miss. Recently I switched to windows phone and that limits my app selection in a major way for stuff like this running in the background. Part of why I was OK with the switch was that my main use of ifttt doesn't need an app. I think I'll be back to an iPhone next year and moves might be the way to go.

Agreed, people seem to think Xamarin == Xamarin Forms, while the real power lies in shared business logic with native UIs, in my opinion.

Xamarin Forms may be useful for internal super-CRUD LOB apps that really are just a collection of input fields, but as soon as you do anything customer facing, you should be using the standard native UI approach.

Also +1 for ReactiveUI, it completely changed the way I build apps for the better.
You can built a movement as much as you like but until it actually moves it's just a group of people doing nothing.

Yes, until they do something, they haven't done it. #lapalissade
I've been extremely disappointed in Xamarin. The main issue is that you don't really get code sharing. I would estimate that only 25% of the Xamarin project I manage is cross platform code. The rest is this bizarre merger of native APIs with C#. It's difficult to write because of the lack of examples and documentation. It's also buggy, even with simple things like page views.

The real problem is that I can write a native iOS app in a fraction of the time it took to write a Xamarin app. Swift has improved iOS development speed so much I'm not convinced we need cross platform app engines (excluding games).

As for Android, yeah, native Android sucks. Activities and fragments are the worst idea anyone has ever had and no one agrees on best practices. But even with cross platform high levels of abstraction like Unity3D you still need to understand them. So, my current advice is to suck it up and write it native twice. Pick your favorite OS, start with that, and then port the logic.
I believe this is karma of every stable open source product, which gained enough popularity.
For the losers I don't believe that was true, although I agree it was less disastrous in a number of ways.

Forms is not Xamarin. It's a DSL in the form of a NuGet (aka npm/cpan) package developers can use to attempt to ignore the differences between the platforms.

It's kinda like swing. Great for throwing together a line of business application and getting xplat ui for free. It's possible to build a performant application with the framework but it abstracts subtle things that come back to hurt you. For example. Forms apps on Android is a single activity, always, period. Fragments are cycled in and out of this activity as navigation occurs. This introduces subtle annoyances related to memory usage as the entire app must be running vs thin slice. It transforms the lifecycle of Android into the UWP or iOS lifecycle.

Again this is Xamarin Forms. It is not Xamarin. It has its place but please don't confuse the product due to poor branding.
I've been in that position before, where people would find my e-mail address as a supposed tech support for something I have no relationship with whatsoever. Usually when you tell them they have a wrong e-mail, they get really angry ("I want to talk to your manager!" kind of angry). So it's better to just not respond at all.
I'm not so sure. The problem is that any kind of processed real meat, like almost all other processed food, tends to be absolutely horrible from a culinary point of view and is often bad from a health-related point of view, too.

It seems unlikely to me that lab-grown meat would fare better in that respect than, say, processed compressed chicken remains that are sold as an ingredient in a vast variety of processed food.

I also don't think that lab-grown meat will have substantially less potential for biological contamination.

On Demand Delivery App Builder
No one is mentioning how expensive Xamarin is and there is no proper free version.

In the free version you app expires after 24 hours AND it has to be below a certain size, I dont remember maybe 2 MB or something.

To make something you have to cough up a lot of money, and the sad part is this information is incredibly hard to find, you only stumble upon it when you download GBs of files.
+1 for Project Rider. The EAP is pretty good at this point, it supports debugging for .NET Core and decompiles dependencies when using Go To Definition.

It still has a few bugs and hangs up on me once or twice a day. I think they should have those ironed out soon though.
The Vyper
You can feel the boundaries of physical keys, unlike virtual ones on a touchscreen. The nubs on F and J serve a similar aligning purpose as, and enhance the functionality of, the interkey gaps on the function key row.

Stepping through the debugger is not typing,

I disagree. E.g. when you're deciding to step in vs. step past vs. step out vs. run etc.; finding the right key is extremely important.

...and I challenge anyone to hover their fingers over the respective keys continuously for hours without touching them, losing their alignment, or unnecessarily tiring the muscles of their hand.
> The downside to this is that making a UI seems to even out your gained time--it's extremely messy and even complicated. Code that's valid in C# produces vague underwater bugs in Java code, which makes you keep hacking around until you find a working solution.

Interesting, I had the exact opposite experience, since the Java->C# mappings often reduce much of the boilerplate code that you have to write if you were using Java (e.g C# events, properties, etc..)

I also never came across any bugs in the mappings, but I can't say for sure that there aren't any.
The one feature that really annoys me is the std::optional. This is awesome and very needed feature however it is too clunky for something that should be used very frequently. Swift does such a nice job with its '?' operator, I wish C++ had something similar.
I've written a few apps in C++/COM with a UI written in Visual Basic. The VB app was 'button code', with the heavy lifting done in COM. I wonder if this approach would work for Xamarin - write the core logic in C# but leave the UI in Java.

Their slow-mining start was, I think, a very bad idea. I get that they wanted a more fair distribution and to prevent an initial bubble. However, bubbles and rich early adopters result in organic viral marketing and create a network effect. Given zcash's hype, with a faster coin issuance they had the potential to beat ethereum in marketcap.

I really hope they succeed, anonymous currency is badly needed.
I doubt that. Thousands of years of cooking tradition will not disappear any time soon. If it's cheap enough, lab grown meat will mostly occur in heavily processed food because the consumers of that food don't give a shit about what they eat anyway.
"It's not racist, I'm white."

It does not matter that you're white.

Again - Finnish students, #1 in the world, don't seem to be focusing on tangible skills such as 'writing their name' and still walk all over American students in standardized testing.

<low-income folks are silently taxed?

I worked at a hotel and a woman asked to use the phone. She said she was robbed earlier and has no money. She called the local priest to get a ride. It was to the motel where she lived that night.

I drove her there and found out she worked at McDonald's. (Near the hotel).

When I talked to the priest he said she was homeless. That she had a network of people that help her.

That one instance made me realize how transportation especially a car was essential. Then - she uses same day places to cash her check. Keeps cash with her always since she has no bank. Has no phone number or address. How many silent taxes on her hurt entry back into my familiar society?

No untrusted component will have access to your data without user confirmation. This means you'll always have to click a button on the main app to fill a login for example.

There are two ways in which logins are filled in the browser:

- One is based on OS X Automation and AppleScript (this will work with Chrome and Safari without our Safari App Extension enabled). Succinctly, with this solution, Secrets will execute a small JS script on your frontmost browser windows to see if there are any logins to be filled. If so, it will present you a "Fill" button. Pressing that button will execute another JS script that will fill that form. In this scenario your data is send via Apple Events.

- When you have the Safari App Extension enabled, the process is similar. But instead of Secrets actively looking for logins forms on frontmost browser windows, the extension will let it know what is available. Again you will still need to press a "Fill" button on Secrets. Once you do your data is placed on a private clipboard that the extension uses to then fill the login.

There are no local servers, and the extension doesn't have access to your data. By design, none of the linked vulnerabilities would apply.

If you're wondering why the two methods, the Safari App Extension came later and the reasons are detailed here: https://outercorner.com/2016/10/19/version_1.4.0.html
I'm confident contamination won't be an issue for consumers because AFAIK no current or proposed synthetic meat has an immune system. This means it will have to be grown in sterile conditions. Contamination will be a huge problem for producers, but they'll have to figure out a solution because the cost of losing whole batches would be too much if they don't.

Agreed. I never read the Xamarin documentation, instead I'm looking at objc or Java and then impl as c# instead. The method names, signatures and idioms match almost one for one. When the API doesn't match it's because it makes sense to; Pickup a copy of the dotnet framework design guidelines and you'll see what I mean about the previous statement.
I don't think the lock-in in the case of graphics APIs is too bad, because even for large codebases implementing a new graphics API support is often done by one or two persons.

This Southerner wouldn't disagree.

Militarily, while the Civil War is in some ways a prefigure of WWI, the comparison only usefully reaches so far. In particular, Civil War artillery lacked the absolute primacy achieved by later developments, permitting a much more mobile style of warfare and preventing the stasis observed on the Western Front. The Civil War's belligerents were also much more unevenly matched, making it possible for a single engagement to produce a decisive strategic outcome; no such possibility existed in WWI until much later in the war, when new technology came along to counter the primacy of artillery and break the stalemate of the trenches.

Politically speaking, too, we observe a qualitative postwar difference; harsh as the military occupation of the South was in many ways, and in spite of bastards like Butler, there existed a strong desire for conciliation and reintegration of the erstwhile secessionists, which overall found considerable success; while the cultural and economic differences underlying the war largely still exist to this day, we've just passed the sesquicentennial of Appomattox without at any
point seeing a serious desire for, or risk of, a new outbreak of warfare. Versailles, by contrast, while no doubt seeming justified to its authors in the astonishingly punitive terms it imposed, produced a new and much uglier war within just a few decades.

So, no, I can't really agree with you here. It's accurate to say that the Civil War is by far the ugliest war whose effects our young nation has ever directly felt. It is not at all accurate to say that those effects are in any way comparable in severity to those of the First World War - which, indeed, was nothing like we've ever seen in America, a fact for which, should you be so inclined, I recommend you nightly thank God.
I don't think that's fair. Even major audio companies were warning customers not to upgrade to Sierra for months due to compatibility issues. Here's iZotope's page about compatibility with their audio plugins - if you bought it more than a couple of years ago, it won't work on Sierra:
