The gotcha is “I gave it permission, then revoked permission in the UI, but it still has permission.”

That's not what arghandugh was saying at all. But I'm guessing you know that.

Dyslexia isn’t curable. It doesn’t magically go away with help, techniques, or accommodations —- it just becomes more manageable.

He/she probably wouldn’t have gotten into an elite university without that help through childhood.

From what I've read, SwiftUI is using parts of UIKit under the hood, so it also doesn't seem too likely.

Box cake mix almost never tastes better than scratch.

Next you’ll tell me store-bought frosting tastes better?

> Because they finally understood who was actually using our product.

Yes!!!

> The biggest problem with most engineers is actually over-engineering.

Err, wait, go back to step 1. Over-engineering is sometimes a byproduct of not understanding the customer use cases. That lack of understanding is the biggest problem.

So, I’m an “engineer” —- my most common frustration with other engineers is their lack of interest in understanding of the actual product being sold. In my experience, sometimes the reason is job-fit issues, sometimes it’s ego, but usually it’s a combination of culture and incentive.

I share an outrage for mass production of plastic, but not at all for Lego.

Lego is a fantastic use of plastic, IMO. Durable, reusable, broad appeal, and designed to be kept, not churned out into the landfill or ocean.

I’m half convinced it’s a difference in how people’s brains work. Dynamic typing adds just so much cognitive overhead for me.

Well, that and PTSD from digging through so many horrors created with Python and JavaScript.

Maybe just cancelled due to the short-notice.

But, I also wouldn't be surprised if leadership doesn't have great answers to the questions their employees would have asked if the meeting had happened.

Sounds very similar to the problems of using XIBs/Storyboards in iOS dev. (aside from the perf. cost you mention)

Sorta random, but I really appreciate this kind of post on HN. People have tons of domain expertise and hard-earned lessons that get shared like this, and it broadens my awareness without requiring any time investment on my part.

Thank you, thank you (and others like you) for taking the time to type this up!
