danieldisu··on Apple and Google must allow other in-app payment systems, Korean law declares
iPhone users pay the development of iOS, iphone users want to use an iPhone in part because all these third party apps.

This is just them wanting more money, and according to latest earnings they already make a lot.

danieldisu··on Once an Addict, Always an Addict?
And getting rich is as simple as earning more and spending less, why are you not rich already?

I'll remind myself in 2 years to see the state of this
danieldisu··on Deliveroo to offer 50M pounds of stock to customers
They are implying that we inflation is rising (even if the official numbers doesn't say so) because of the actions of the Fed
danieldisu··on Element (Matrix chat app) suspended from the Google Play Store
It's amazing that bureaucrats fined Microsoft for putting IE as default and keep allowing apple to do what they want. Europe should force these companies to allow users to install any software they want in their devices as long as it is legal...
danieldisu··on Apple M1 vs. Ryzen 3900X vs. Intel I9 in Software Development
maybe you will be able to compile everything in the cloud and then it doesn't matter what type of computer you have
danieldisu··on Banks are slow to increase rates on savings accounts, but quick to reduce them
interests are not linear, also most credits and mortgages will have a commission when you pay down a percentage of it, at least in Europe
danieldisu··on DHH: The HEY stack Vanilla Ruby on Rails, MySQL, redis, stimulus, elastic search
why did you assume that the fact that they are using elastic search means they don't support offline search? You can have both... offline in device when no connection is present and online when it is...
danieldisu··on Citing revenue declines, Airbnb cuts 25% of workforce
If you compare SF to any german city it may be that way, but the median salary (not only IT) is not that different(56k$ to 46k€ according to google).

Remember that there are people outside IT/SV!

danieldisu··on Agile's early evangelists wouldn't mind watching Agile die
Don't get me started when they try to push all clients into one jira, each one of them with their own complexities, release cycles etc. Or when they try to measure team effectiveness using Jira un some way or another, every team is capable of doing more Jiras in the same time by just splitting them more!
danieldisu··on Agile's early evangelists wouldn't mind watching Agile die
The main problem for me is the misalignment of goals between upper management, middle management and the rest, the higher you climb the less interested they are in they user/client, they only care about some bullshit metric that will end up paying their bonuses. This is specially visible in public companies where they only chase the metrics that the market looks in that decade, ignoring the rest or the actual user satisfaction (they do try to put a metric on that, with bullshit forms and all :))
danieldisu··on A Profile of Zoom CEO Eric Yuan
Until you have to connect to one of these so called solutions from your laptop. Using Webex puts my cpu at 100% with a mediocre quality, while I can use hangouts or Slack to call without these problems.
danieldisu··on VP of InfoSec at InVision on secure code development [audio]
Who needs to hire Junior engineers when you can hire very senior ones at half the price in another part of the country/world?
danieldisu··on Barcelona Fines Landlords Who Let Buildings Sit Empty
I think people in Barcelona may want to differ, rent prices have increased a lot due to tourism and expats flocking to Barcelona, while salaries for people outside the tech bubble are almost the same.

All these articles featuring all the good things that Barcelona is doing are just marketing...

danieldisu··on A Go Custom Flutter Engine Embedder for Desktop
Yeah, I prefer Dart + Flutter vs anything + Android UI layer... But the library ecosystem of the JVM and Android specifics is just too big, it will take time for Dart and Flutter to have even a small part. And also people with knowledge of the language and the ecosystem, it may be a bit risky to use Flutter right now.
danieldisu··on A Go Custom Flutter Engine Embedder for Desktop
Are Toast and Dialogs using the native variants?

EditTexts feel different, but as a user I don't see much difference..

Great job! and props to you for making it open source

danieldisu··on A Go Custom Flutter Engine Embedder for Desktop
I wish it was written in Kotlin!

tbh I don't really care in what language is written, but I would really like to create Apps with Kotlin using Flutter instead of having to learn another language that it's (in my opinion) a bit inferior than the one I'm currently using.

I can see myself using flutter as a thin UI layer and just forget about the mess that Android UI layer is...

danieldisu··on Great Wall Motor unveils $9k electric urban car with nearly 200-mile range
I can see many people buying one of these in european cities once they start heavily benefiting electric cars vs ICE ones.

The main problem is charging, but that could also be fixed by installing chargers in the financial districts where only electric cars can park...

danieldisu··on Please do not attempt to simplify this code
Yet you can argue that despite it's limitations they could make working (complex) software with it.
danieldisu··on Open-sourcing Sonar, a new extensible debugging tool
I will have to try it, I've been a user of Stetho for a long time and the new network inspection tools from Android studio doesn't completely click for me.
danieldisu··on Germany Orders Daimler to Recall 774,000 Diesels in Europe
Wow, I have a Seat with the same 1.2 engine and is really really hard for me to surpass the 8L/100. Maybe driving very fast can get you over these numbers but driving in the legal limit of most countries won't make you burn that much fuel!
danieldisu··on Jeff Bezos announces Amazon is picking up 'The Expanse'
They still serve you Ads, it's just that the Ads won't be personalised for you.
danieldisu··on Stanford paper says rent control is driving up cost of housing in San Francisco
Maybe we need something deeper than that, you have 3/4 of your country that are almost a wasteland and you insist on cram all the people in 4 or 5 cities. Maybe we need to start to incentive moving people to other more empty places...
danieldisu··on Shanghai sets population at 25M
I think we will live a revival of these places, they provide better quality of life in many aspects, and can be very interesting for people who are fed up with the big city.
danieldisu··on Yew: Rust framework for making React-like client web apps
I think Rust may be a bit too low level for that but at least you will be in the HN frontpage with that combination for sure!
danieldisu··on Intel Coffee Lake Core i7-8700K review
So... great benchmarks but they couldn't even gain more than +2 average fps in most games compared to last gen 7700.

The title makes you believe that it has some serious gains over previous gens but nope. I wonder how much Intel paid for this review...

danieldisu··on Anko SQLite, a library to simplify working with SQLite on Android
you can't put many bytes in bundles or else you run into problems. The correct approach is to just store the id or the minimum needed in order to restore the view, most of the info will either come from the server, a cache or a database..
danieldisu··on Going for the 5 hour workday
When you only have to work for 6 hours it's very easy to avoid the more congested hours. Allowing you to get to work by routes that normally are collapsed, or just using the same route and getting there 15+ minutes earlier because there are no traffic.

I think is a win-win

danieldisu··on Tesla Model S and Model 3 comparison
I bought a car 2 months ago, and if you wanted to change even the simpler thing the delivery time went to 1+ month. This was for the best selling brand of cars in Spain that delivers almost 500.000 cars a year.
danieldisu··on Android to launch TensorFlow Lite for mobile machine learning
they show an example of ML when selecting a text in android and how it predicts how much text should it select depending on what it is (a full address, an email etc).. don't know how they made it but it was almost instant, I'm sure the users wont care.
