Yes. I've been using Realm for my work app. In my opinion it's easier than Core Data, and certainly much easier than bare SQLite.

I've expected it to cross 1.0 after 0.99 but it keeps going on to more than 0.101. So, congrats on finishing the milestone.

One request though: what about grouping functionality?

(JP from Realm here) Yes, that's something we're hoping to add! We're tracking that feature as #3384[0]. Still needs some design work though.

Out of Topic: .design TLD is new to me. I wonder if new and obscure TLDs like this will be familiar to non power-user.

Non-power users don't look at at the URL, they certainly don't type them by hand.

People use search engines to find websites, no one types out URL's anymore.

What about email addresses?

In the corporate world? Nope. Outside of that, people text each other.

Did you mean UIColor and NSColor? :)

If my iPhone lock screen can use these it will be neat.

Android can do live wallpapers, but they use so much battery that I avoid it.

I think adult can do whatever they want. But every kid should be given the chance and opportunity to learn coding, and it should not be mandatory.

You have hit the nail right on the head. Everybody + opportunity + non-mandatory. This concept of equal opportunity seems to have disappeared in the last 5 years and I'm heartened to see people still talk about equal opportunity (vs the fallacy of equality), even if the media doesn't discuss opportunity anymore.

I was a kid who was writing assembly at about 10 years old because I loved it. I saved up to buy my own computer by delivering newspapers for 2 years. I learned to program by trial and error. I introduced my kids to programming but never pushed it. They have not embraced programming like my wife and I did when we were kids. I would not want programming mandated for my kids, despite my own passion for programming.

A comfort using computers to do research, word processing, calculation and create basic posters/articles/projects/videos would be very beneficial and may be better a better mandate than programming.

Why not mandatory? Lots of other core, useful skills are.

Because I believe it is not an essential surviving skill for everyone (at least for now).

Neither is literature, nor languages, nor history, nor geography, nor mathematics over simple addition and subtraction.

But we teach these to kids so that they have a greater chance of understanding the world around them.

Fair point. But what subject should we replace from the current curriculum? Adding another subject seems like another burden for students.

Connected is not inherently a bad thing. It can be useful as long as the computer in the car can think and act independently; just like human.

Reminds me of the third islamic caliph, Omar ibn Khattab, who suspend punishment for thief on famine. [1] I wonder if there is another legal presedence beside it.

Precedence of people not cutting off other people's hands for stealing? lots.

A lot of banks still run mainly on FORTRAN or COBOL. I guess it's "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" attitude.

I've worked at a financial place that ran COBOL for back-end services. Worked great. Maintenance sucked. But it was pretty impressive.

Financial institutions also advertise job openings for "senior COBOL developers". They don't bother to look for "junior" ones.

Nice. I use Little Snitch myself. I also appreciate the clever naming. ;)

I build my app using AMQP as one of the building block. Thank you so much to Pieter for creating it. I hope the best for him.
