Reply to Why would I want an app when I can just use the web site by flabberghaster

I use most apps on my phone as web sites. I think apps are nice when your app uses gestures that would otherwise overlap with webbed site, or when you're doing anything computationally intensive that would otherwise be done in JavaScript (or even WASM).

Another good reason is if you do not know how to make web sites but you do know how to make apps. One of the very best reasons is when your app is a web browser.

I also get the vibe that cert pinning is easier to do in apps than websites (I make websites and not apps, but even then I know how to cert pin in an Android app when I wouldn't be able to tell you how to set up HSTS, which I don't think even does cert pinning).

But I suspect that apps are better for leveraging analytical capabilities to synergize our product development teams with our long-term business strategies while delivering shareholder value and, most importantly, delighting our customers while delivering relevant deals and offers.

Reply to comment by devtesla in I think it's funny that Apple's M-series chips are so good by twovests

haha, what the fuck. this is hilarious

i think apple does bin some, you usually get a few numbers of cores to choose from, but i believe that's only two tiers per processor.

i know it's still impressive to design your own silicon, but the magic is just monopoly? the "apple sucks forever" nerd in me stays winning

Looks like they've basically bought up the latest processes since 2014. Note that these "3nm" processes they're talking about are just marketing terms at this point, but the lower the nm process the better it is, generally.

Also apple not paying for defective chips is crazy. Part of the reason that cpus come in a billion different models is binning, the best ones are in the most expensive parts and the ones with defective cores turned off make it into the cheaper ones. Apple I guess doesn't deal with that at all.

Reply to as a fellow creator of an internet platform that might be used to distribute wallpapers, i pledge to never drive >95 mph in a 35 zone in order to promote jstpst or any other brands by emma

had to look this one up but wow. going 150 km/h in a 60 is absolutely deranged. if you get caught doing that shit you should not be allowed to drive. i feel like a criminal going 5 km/h above the speed limit on the motorway - i don't understand how or why, but it seems like its become endemic in american culture to go over 30 mph above the speed limit at nearly all times
