  • Nothing in common actually (besides the somewhat close spelling). It's a male name, sort of a variation of Peter, same meaning (i.e. a stone, a rock), different etymology.

  • I'd argue that deploying from one codebase to 3+ different platforms is new functionality, although not for the end user per se.

    I wish though that more of the web apps would come as no batteries included (by default or at least as a selectable option), i.e. use whatever webview is available on the system instead of shipping another one regardless of if you want it or not.

  • I've tried HeliBoard as already suggested elsewhere, but I find its autocorrect and suggestions absolutely abysmal in English and even worse in my native Bulgarian. With Gboard I can usually type a letter or two and it already knows what's up, and it often knows what's the next word based just on the previous one.

    How's your experience with it?

  • For anything that doesn't seem entirely obvious I try to leave a comment. It could end up being helpful to me some time later, because let's face it: your code is indistinguishable from someone else's code 2 weeks after you commit it.

  • Laugh tracks have a purpose though. I understand they're not to everyone's liking - and that's fine, but they work for some comedy shows - and usually they're from the live audience that sees things performed in front of them.

  • If you have to just open a website related to work, it's fine, but in some instances, in order to access work resources, the phone has to be managed by the company, so this creates an obvious concern about private data. I guess "taking pictures and using social media" from the example here doesn't fall under that category, but that doesn't mean it's the same for other cases.

    Even if it's not that complicated, it might be just about separating work from private life. If I have to use a phone for work, I'd personally much prefer it to be a separate device that I can turn off and put in a drawer when I don't need it.

  • I agree about the "everything in one place"; besides that, in terms of shopping, there's not much to it. In terms of services there used to be some pretty neat stuff, e.g. unlimited cloud storage for photos (including RAW files) for something like 50 EUR/year, but of course they axed that.

    Plenty of alternatives for everything, just maybe a little less convenient.

    In terms of media, I don't stream from paid services; whatever I pay for is either at local shows where I buy CDs from artists directly, or through label stores, or through outlets like Bandcamp (btw it's Bandcamp Friday right now until the end of the weekend, go support what you like).
