Like last year at a cafe in a small town somewhere in Greece.

You make it sound like indoor smoking in public places is a thing of a past.

> You treat your code as a means to an end to make a product for a user.

This sounds more like a product owner not a developer

You need to understand the context. The quote in Gita was to motivate the best warrior of the time at the battlefront facing opponents who were mainly his cousins and uncles.

In that context the quote is about performing the duties you were born to do without overthinking the consequences.

> This introduces performance issues larger than the typical ones associated with vtable lookups.

Don't know about other programming languages but with Objective-C due to IMP caching the performance is close to C++ vtable

  Name Iterations Total time (sec) Time per (ns)
  C++ virtual method call 1000000000 1.5 1.5
  IMP-cached message send 1000000000 1.6 1.6

This is so true. I switch from iPhone 5s to iPhone SE to iPhone 13 mini. After my current phone dies I don't know what phone would I get next.

C has many syntactic sugar and [] operator is one of them. -> is another popular one.

> After a formal investigation in 1907, psychologist Oskar Pfungst demonstrated that the horse was not actually performing these mental tasks, but was watching the reactions of his trainer.

Sounds like machine learning

> The tooling idea is particularly appropriate for JavaScript since many developers actually code in TypeScript and rely on compilers such as Babel, Webpack or the TypeScript compiler to output JavaScript.

Can you not simply use a feature flag that you control remotely to toggle the app between fake and real modes? You just need to toggle the flag on when submitting for review

this sounds like a good explanation:

> University of Göttingen had more academic freedom than generations past. They were promised intellectual autonomy and freedom from close religious supervision. Instead, they were recruited solely to advance knowledge and carry out original research. The education of students was also more egalitarian than it had been previously in Europe, as both rich and poor were admitted and trained.

There's also `clang -rewrite-objc` that "Rewrite Objective-C source to C++" which does the same trick of mapping objc code to `objc_msgSend`

> While it does cost $99 to get in the store, the app can be used by millions for no additional cost. Hosting fees for a web app will grow along with the user base. Even without users, a domain plus a basic hosting plan will easily be more than $99/year.

$99/year is just to host the 'client-side'. Most likely you still the backend so that cost is still the same.

Piracy isn't a new buzzword but ever since Apple made it a selling point everyone is hopping on the train.

Also when it comes to privacy there's a thin line between collecting data and selling it to partners.

Also real security issues should be tackled on the os level. If the app sandboxing is actually robust then I don't see what is the problem.

> Thirteen. Instagram had thirteen employees when acquired by Facebook.

But then Instagram was mostly just a simple photo editor app without the social graph complexity. Sure you can still build and maintain such an app with thirteen people.
