@JoeHillary10 @sobri Monkeypox is transmitted primarily by aerosols and contact. If you get close enough to shake hands, it can transmit. Whether you have vaginal or anal sex is irrelevant at that point.

The group it started in is irrelevant.

@Demigur1 @americanthaiguy That’s completely wrong. We’re drowning in studies proving effectiveness of masks during the pandemic, both real world and lab. It’s proven beyond all doubt.

@tesolmatthew @WritingByMatt Oh you can go ahead and block this account of mine too now. I’ve stood up for you in the past, and defended you in private many times amongst journalist friends, but that’s over now. You’ve burnt too many bridges.

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

@tesolmatthew @WritingByMatt I gave Hunt the benefit of the doubt. But it turned out he was wrong, and journalists were right to be offended. And he has only dug deeper since, instead of offering any correction or apology. I’m not an angry man, just a disappointed one. Matt Hunt, you let yourself down.

@justincroser @sobri Hi Justin! Get fucked! You’re not welcome anywhere near my app. If you haven’t already done so, delete it now. Goodbye, and fuck off 👍🏼

@Amideee @sobri Usually you’d only see this happen when you’re switching to something like the Camera app, which needs to use almost all available memory.

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

@Amideee @sobri Arc keeps the UI until there’s a memory warning, or the app has been in the background for several minutes. If the UI is resetting immediately then that means iOS is giving aggressive memory warnings. Some other app must be chewing up memory.

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

@Amideee @KrauseFx @Google @netflix @Airbnb @Uber @sobri I remember looking at the state restoration API at the time it came out, and it was over engineered and less useful than what we were using internally at my employer at that time.

@ClintVSmith Hi dog whistle racist dude! You need to do serious self reflection. Your bias is ugly, and unbecoming of a supposed progressive NZer. I’m ashamed of you.

[Mike Rundle @flyosity]

There’s a peaceful satisfaction that comes with working on the same product for years. Being able to look back on the merits of past ideas and features, recall user research from years ago, and knowing customer pain and problems as deeply as possible. It’s a quiet confidence.

@RoyCheng69 @CatzzzThailand Is this satire?

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

@NeilShelley @komocode Yeah, let's see the emails. If @komocode doesn't post them, I'll post screenshots myself. I've got him on 1) defamation, 2) harassment, 3) admission of attempted theft of service. I really am tempted to go legal on this one. That's a lot of lines crossed.

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

@inket @komocode @inkjet I have no interest in replying to @komocode. I simply want his harassment and defamation to end, without having to go as far as legal action. And no, @NeilShelley is not me. My name is Matt Greenfield. I have nothing to hide.

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

@komocode Your App Store review is unequivocal defamation, and your emails (from multiple email addresses) are harassment. Show the world. Let them judge.

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

@komocode Please share screenshots of the emails. Including your own, of course. I’m happy to have the entire exchange open to public scrutiny.

MGBoxKit 3.0.1 is out, with support for box reuse / offscreen culling, similar to UITableView cell reuse https://t.co/g0IdgTVnEn

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

@wraithe i had to take it off the store because it needed updating and i don't have time. it's not self supporting, unfortunately :(

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

MGBoxKit 2.1.0 is here https://t.co/17ljej9btK See the changelog for details https://t.co/ijNn95J2bd

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

@neilsardesai Unfortunately yes, for now. Though if I get some spare weeks I'd love to do an update.

[Big Paua @BigPaua]

@BenjaminZAMayo Cool. Will do. It'll be a very big update. Whole UI overhaul was almost complete when I had to set it aside.
