I’ve seen people suggest, and succeed at, building awareness and momentum for a project by chronicling it’s development throughout the process.
I’ve always been worried about doing that, because you expose your idea to the world.

I don’t love writing software.
I love writing software for my platforms of choice using the frameworks, languages and tools that I enjoy.
All that advice saying not to be married to tools or languages or frameworks or is only relevant to devs who do this *just* as a job.
Had to cancel @DisneyPlus and @ESPNPlus today.
Obviously Disney forgot who supported them through all of the bullsh*t right-wing boycotts.
Support #JimmyKimmel
@ESPNPlus this is absolutely unacceptable streaming service. I expect compensation for not being able to watch the game I specifically subscribed so that I could watch!
Hope this has changed since I last checked, but I thought it was ridiculous that neither Xcode nor Android Studio supported input/output formatters, which display and allow editing source files in the dev’s preferred style, but saves them back out again in the team default style.
Was able to avoid having to do the app rewrite at work using cross-platform.
But still got stuck with having to do large parts of it as hybrid.
Still, that’s way better than having to work with React Native or Flutter.
I’m having to build a case to defend native mobile development versus hybrid or cross platform development at work
Anybody got good, recent data to support the argument? Stats on user preferences for native apps, user abandonment of hybrid, performance differences of x-platform?
…and easily understand the project.
I’m incredibly proud of that.
But so many iOS devs are so critical of devs who aren’t writing code with all of the newest language features.
#iOSDev
Just wrote an enterprise iPadOS app for the company.
Didn’t use async/await, property wrappers or any of the other latest and debatably greatest Swift language features.
Except for the fact that it uses modern SwiftUI, a dev who last wrote iOS code 5 years ago could jump in…
@raddevus@unclebobmartin It amazes me that so many in the industry, including many in this thread, don’t understand that engaging your coworkers abrasively, and being insulting about their work or their thought processes related to the work, is NOT okay or acceptable.
@chris_cooney@unclebobmartin The article I read wasn’t joking. It was expressing a serious viewpoint that there might be an actual reason so many in this profession are so poor in how we relate to others.
