Others have mentioned many good apps, but I'll add this one:

Forkyz: Crossword puzzle app, a fork of the Shortyz app. If you like crossword puzzles, this pulls from a bunch of daily crosswords.
For games:

Forkyz (collects crossword puzzles from different sources, like the New York Times)
PySolFc (mahjong, solitaire, other classic single-player games)
Shattered Pixel Dungeon
Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup
MTG Familiar (database of Magic the Gathering cards and rules)

Learning Japanese:

AnkiDroid
Kakugo (for kanji writing practice)

Miscellaneous:

NewPipe (buggy every so often, but it makes YouTube bearable for me)
OsmAnd~ (offline map and directions app)
SecScanQR (basic QR reader)
Vanilla Music
LibreOffice Viewer
MuPDF viewer
KeePassDX
Termux
I would imagine that would be tracked by a crypto ledger, externally. Customer payment confirmation hashed with timestamp, driver's info, restaurant info, order info and of course the previous ledger block. Who would hash it (compute)? The same devices that run the app I imagine.
I don’t think this answers the parent question. Database queries still needs to be made and a view still needs to be rendered. What complexity does next.js solve?

Question: What's stopping China from buying GPUs via third party middle-men countries that don't have export controls to China?

I would assume nothing, similarly to how exports of western tech from western countries somehow magically exploded overnight to Russia's neighbors and everyone is pretending not to notice because it makes money.

It's a horrible way to do what css can do but in a dumber way with added tooling.

It's been a while, but I remember splitting time between XCode and VScCode for iOS projects made it bearable. Apple docs aren't perfect but I found Swift to be enjoyable enough as long as you don't accidentally run afoul of type checker bugs.
I've tried many times to get into macOS/iOS programming, and Xcode is always the thing that has stopped me. It's a shame, because I really would like to build native apps...
I’ve been (very) casually dabbling with iOS and Mac development on and off since about 2011, and the one constant has been that Xcode is incredibly janky.

My first time was for a university project that I almost missed the deadline for because my app just refused to build one day, regardless of clearing all the caches etc. I eventually fixed that by starting a new project and copying all the files over.

Various versions would crash with alarming frequency. For years it was missing common text editing features like multiple cursors. Find and replace _still_ sucks, to this day.

Since Swift came along, which I love as a language, type and error checking has become incredibly slow. A type error somewhere in a file often completely breaks the ability to Opt+click any other types to read the very documentation you need to fix the error. Clicking related types often opens a “not found” page in the documentation explorer.

I’m doing Advent of Code in Swift this year and even for that—a couple dozen unconnected source files no more than 200 lines long each—I’ve had it refuse to rename files, breakpoints randomly stop working, Instruments refuse to let me edit configurations.

Surely Apple’s own developers dogfood this all day every day and run into the exact same problems?
> Their cities are a lot greener.

Simple air quality indices would disagree. And greener than who? Are you going to cherrypick cities and energy mixes?

You're still not offering a solution (carrot/stick) to "support" a solution.
I think there's the REST that Fielding intended, and there's the REST that everyone has spent almost 20 years implementing. At some point we should acknowledge that the reality of REST-like API design is a valid thing to point to and say "that's REST!" even if it doesn't implement all of Fielding's intentions.

To me the critical part of REST is the use of http semantics in API design, which makes it very un-RPC like.

The idea of a naive api client crawling through an API to get at the data that it needs seems so disconnected from the reality of how _every api client I've ever implemented_ works in a practical sense that it's unfathomable to me that someone thinks that this is a good idea. I mean, as a client, I _know_ that I want to fetch a specific `order` object, and I read the documentation from the API provider (which may in fact be me as well, at least me as an organization). I know the URL to load an order is GET /orders/:id, and I know the url to logout is DELETE /loginSession. It would never make sense to me to crawl an API that I understand from the docs to figure out if somehow the url for fetching orders has changed.

I do think we need some kind of description of REST 2.0 that makes sense in today's world. It certainly does not involve clients crawling through entry urls and relationships to discover paths that are clearly documented. It probably does involve concepts of resources and collections of resources, it certainly mandates specific uses for each http method. It should be based on the de facto uses of REST in the wild. And this thing would _definitely_ not look like an rpc-oriented api (eg soap, grpc).
Xcode is so slow and painful that I primarily use Cursor now to pseudo-lint, format, and generally edit. Switching over to Xcode just for the things that have to be done in Xcode.

There is something wrong with the IDE if an LLM has better response times.

Separately, Cursor Composer is awesome.
Friendly video explaining why a neural network with only one hidden layer can approximate any continuous functions (using a Lego block analogy)
I've been super impressed by Android Studio overall - it works way better than any other platform-specific fork of a popular editor I've used (looking at you, Arduino). XCode is a waste of my time - it's slow, buggy, and the errors are useless if they decide to ever show up.

With all the "ai text editor" startups we've seen, someone just needs to find a way to hack the XCode build & emulator functionality into a useable editor, and they'll have thousands of paying users in a week.
Cool idea, simple interface.

What are your hopes with this? Is it just for yourself to use, or do you hope to get a large gallery of submissions?
I was hoping I could submit to the gallery without logging in, but in retrospect I do see why that probably should not be allowed
This is good to know, thanks for sharing this knowledge.
I am not sure if my mind is playing tricks on me or sometimes with some apps the focus doesn't work right. Like desktop Whatsapp looks to be in focus, but when I try typing nothing happens, than I need to click on it or restart it before I can type into the message box, but one time I managed to rename a folder on my desktop (and only realized this much later). One of the downsides of the macos windowing system allowing active apps without any windows shown. I'm scared I will delete something important or do damage if I can't be sure my mental model maps correctly to what's happening on the computer.
Same, I have a Mac but every week I check the progress of linux support for the Snapdragon X1E!

I am running Sonoma (and iOS 17) with no plan to update. I don't want AI built into the OS. Very happy with ollama and our own code.

In fact what I would like the most is to strip the OS to the bare minimum: Remove Photos and whatnot from the OS (hey it's an app, I should be able to install it from the AppStore if I want) and the hundreds of daemons that run to do who knows what.

I tell myself I'm a minority here... but everyday I stumble upon all types of users who want the same.
Though I totally agree with this, the MVP model can be used for titles released as Early Access
I think it's normal to have a backup editor.

I do most of my coding with Jetbrains IDEs, but I have to edit a configuration file from time to time and for that I use vi. I know just a few percent of what vi can do, I use it as a command line "notepad". I feel safe running it under "sudo" or elevated with UAC and if I have to log into a strange Linux machine where I can't (package manager database corrupted -- that's why I'm there) or don't want to install software (it's not my machine) I can count on vi being there, my only beef is that I have to :syntax off because it's unusual to find a terminal where the dark blue shade can be read against a black background.

(I installed emacs for old times sake on two Linux machines and remembered why I switched to vi. ^S for search was already a weird choice for the command line because of the XON-XOFF conflict, but ^S for save rolls off you fingers if you use GUI programs on Windows. I'm sure you can change it, but the continuation characters emacs uses interferes with cut-and-paste.)
Wow that is really something else, and closely echoes what people are saying nowadays.
It's hard enough to get the CRI out of manufacturers. I've never seen any other measure of light quality reporter ever.
Thankfully, the SAT no longer deducts points for wrong answers. But I agree, there's a big difference between testing and doing really great work.

I'm somewhat on the other end of this, where I excelled in school, graduated valedictorian, but didn't gain any meaningful experience with projects and such and had poor leadership skills all around.
Germany has 112 for emergencies and 110 for the police, kinda easy to mistype. So only true for certain degrees of "nobody".

This is bad faith when your text says you want to shame them into doing more. Someone doing enough doesn't need to be shamed into further action.
if you call something 'public' then it should be public... it's weird to then not have it be public. All definitions of the word 'public' seem to agree with me. But you know... i guess meaning changes with the times?? I guess i called it 'weird' because it defies the meaning of the word. that's weird _to me_.

adjective
1.
of or concerning the people as a whole.
"public concern"

noun
1.
ordinary people in general; the community.
This seems to be in line with a previous submission, where one can "play" Counter Strike in a similar way with AI.

People have asked what app other are using

and I was wondering "which apps do you think are missing" ? (it can be games or even very specific needs)

as I think lot of people are like me here, we would like to hack on some "weekend project" but we lack creativity.
Hard disagree. Vanilla BEM + CSS produces a parallel component system that I find very unwelcome since React (or Vue/Svelte/etc.) already accomplishes this.

Tailwind removes this burden and helps you focus on writing actual React components when needed.
Yes. And it was done so cheaply. It is now easy a relatively cheap to sway public opinion. The concentration of social media in a few company’s hands means that large amounts of regulation are needed.
Yeah, I don’t file bug reports anymore. I just write in the ticket “this is probably an Apple bug with XCode. Workaround:” and then go on with my life
Misrepresentation. The point is none of that. It’s the moral inconsistency disguised as valid.
Can you elaborate a bit on the technical details?

What sets this apart from a lot of the similar tools out there?

Being a PM is about politics, not actually building products and helping users.

I am not sure what this site adds other than the ability for the uncreative to find snarky ways of telling people to fck off.

Nearly the entirety of this discussion outlines political and organizational dysfunction.
I think it just means that since he's building this from pre-existing off-the-shelf parts, he has no control over any IP associated with the components he bought. Which seems fairly obvious and uncontroversial.
The position of governments in society, and thus the kinds of solutions they are biased towards, tend to be similar.

I think he means that the brain does exist, but that our brains don't have a perfect model of the real world or physics, hence our dreams look like this.

Also, in a way, comparing GenAI/LLMs to how our brain neural nets work (which isn't exact, but have similar outputs).
It works. It's just that there's so much easier to extract energy, both renewable and non-renewable, that no one seems to bother. We can fairly see it as a hedge in case "something goes badly wrong with all other renewable energy sources", same as methane hydrates are for non-renewable fuels - also plentiful and technically exploitable, just unable to stand competition with cheap fracked gas.

Whole "energy crisis" is made-up. There is no energy crisis. We have oceans of energy of all sorts available, it's just that the memory of 1973 oil embargo permits both sides of political spectrum to manipulate people by, as usually happens, fear (right wing), or guilt (left wing).
I think you should read "If you want to restrict access, you need to make it private. - this is sensible and not weird." as "If you want to restrict access [based on legally protected characteristics], you need to make it private. - this is sensible and not weird."

It is not weird to follow the law, and the public/private distinction has been around for a couple of generations.

No, I found the base game to have the appropriate level of complexity in terms of construction and making infrastructure.

I recently swapped from the F-Droid version of AntennaPod to the Google Play Store version so that I could use Chromecast, which they strip from their F-Droid builds because the underlying library isn't open-source and is deemed "impure" by F-Droid (it gets you a "This app has features you might not like" banner, when honestly it's a feature I specifically want).

A similar thing is true of Tempo (a Subsonic-client music player), where the F-Droid builds have Chromecast support stripped out, but the GitHub-published builds have it (so I also have to install Obtanium to get those updated).

"I want to listen to my audio on my devices in my house" is a weird thing to exclude in the name of open-source purity.

Otherwise, I love F-Droid. I just wish they had a bit more nuance to recognize that Chromecast support isn't the same as "constantly reports your location in the background to corporate servers", and so those shouldn't have the same severity of warning banners applied.

Typing in Xcode also reminds me of VBA, where you'd only get the syntax highlighting for the line after completing it. Xcode regularly flashes it on-off for the entire file when typing. Quite an annoyance.
A Test So Hard No AI System Can Pass It – Yet
You're asking "Do you think X? Or do you think Y?" here, but I know !X, _and_ I know Y. You've strung those clauses together as if they might mean something, so I confess I have no idea what tangent "fund political campaigns" runs off to, because I am not opining on the correctness of personhood but rather its history.

Before personhood, if a corporation had wronged you, you were limited to suing its trustees, its charter, or petitioning the government.

With personhood, I don't need to know who at McBigCorp decided to dump that sewage into my stream, I just need to know that it was done. I don't need to go after the trustees directly. Accountability is centralized, and the corporate entity likely has deeper pockets than the individual I might've sued for recompense.

So yes, corporations existed before corporate personhood, but they were more hazardous to public welfare and had limited remedy to abuse. The East India Companies and the railroad barons of the world were allowed to run roughshod until centralized accountability was imposed.

I hate RSC so much. Most hated technology of them all. And this very helpful / necessary blog post is infuriating, given that not so long ago the entirety of the react stack was capable of being held in one's head. It took very little expertise to make something that worked perfectly fine for most users.

Those days are gone. Scale your Next.js RSC app to anything larger than a toy or marketing site and get f'ing burned.
The worst thing is that Apple assumes everyone will use Xcode's GUI, and a lot of functionality is de-facto only available through Xcode.

It doesn't seem like a standalone SDK with an IDE layered on top, quite the opposite, the CLI build tools feel like a headless Xcode runner.

Building and code signing without Xcode is nearly impossible. The non-Xcode tooling is a disorganised half-deprecated bunch of ad-hoc commands, and they're mostly undocumented.
The majority of the time nobody can justify the value of damn near anything they do at work.
