Friend group, work group, sports groups, friends of friends met at parties etc. It’s a sample size in the hundreds, and includes dozens who used to root their phones and install third party OSes in the early days of Android. It’s not insignificant to see zero usage when OP is claiming 50%. If their numbers are to be believed there should be regions where there’s close to 100% usage.

Lol I talk to family, friends, colleagues, people I play ports with. Have literally never once seen a Graphene phone.

I literally cannot think of anyone anymore who even roots their phone, let alone installs a third party OS.

Y’all are honestly deluded if you think it’s remotely close to OPs numbers.

Lol good luck on that promotion, you seem difficult to be around.

I wonder how your company handles performance reviews when you already know everything about all types of programming?

That variable is only created when the function is run, and it holds a constant value for the entirety of its lifetime.

It is literally constant from the perspective of the computer executing it. You’re the one adding an extra layer of expectation here.

Lol.

Pushing something onto an array isn’t changing the array? It’s not changing the reference to the array, but from a style standpoint it doesn’t make sense.

So you’re arguing for writing things as they seem, not the way that computers treat them?

You’re comment indicates the FE dev obsession with always using const stems from a misunderstanding of how computers work.

Maybe rethink this.

You are literally just describing the conceptual differences between functional programming and object oriented programming. It has nothing to do with front end vs backend, except for the fact that React has vastly popularized functional paradigms on the frontend.

If you come from a Java / Spring background, that will seem foreign, if you come from an express background it will feel natural.

Functional programming is extremely pleasant though. Its been described as what object oriented would look like if you actually followed all the SOLID principles. You should keep an open mind.

The equivalent in JavaScript / TypeScript would actually be function () {}, this is the syntax for named functions.

C# is the same as bash though.

But the court rulings / precedence wouldn’t care about that distinction, it just covers learning from copyrighted material in general.

What if you read a copyrighted engineering textbook, and then build something for profit with that knowledge?

They couldn’t just make YouTube suddenly stop working.

ffmpeg is published under the LGPL license, meaning that all of the published versions are free for anyone to use in anything, as long as they don’t modify the ffmpeg library.

The only leverage they have over YouTube is that they could stop allowing YouTube to use future versions. That could create headaches for YouTube if it turns out there’s major security issues, since then YouTube will need to either solve them with a wrapper / sandbox around the library, or write their own library, but any existing versions in use will always be usable by YouTube.

You think this even shows up on the radar of company execs?

There’s no reason not to publish messy code. Most code ends up being messy.

It could be malware, OP is not sharing the source code.

It could be malware, OP is not sharing the source code.

Share the source code or this is DOA.

You’re literally defending a trillion dollar corporation’s anti-competitive behaviour, in a field that you have no expertise in.

On top of the fact that Linux is a more open platform than windows. So great job making a cohesive argument.

Apple’s behaviour has nothing to do with security and everything to do with preventing third party competition.

Apple is such a piece of shit company.

Im so glad people are finally starting to realize it.

It doesn’t matter bro. Fuck them. If they want to make their product worse let them, and go buy an android watch instead.

And man, stop buying the iPhone security horseshit. Apple devices are not more secure because of their walled garden. The literal entire business world runs on Windows which is a more open platform than Android and is perfectly secure.

This is nothing more than Apple being petty and not implementing a basic feature in a device agnostic way.

Exactly, Sci Fi writers almost never invent an entirely new technology for their books, they just look at current technology, think a bit about where it might head, think about how that could interact with broader societal forces, realize some flaw there-in, and write about it.

Technologists are doing basically the same thing, looking at current technology, thinking about where it might head and what might be useful and/or profitable, and then start trying to overcome current obstacles to develop and build it.

But one of them takes a single person a year or two to write a book, and the other has to start trying to do research and building things and testing them and breaking them and getting funding and overcoming the current obstacles etc. etc. If they start at the same time it will look like the technologist has just built what they were warned not to, when in reality they’ve been building it the whole time on a parallel path.
