Apparently that one "major issue" got explained with a typical, fairly mundane reason. Once again, tech media shat their pants and came up with really wild theories.
@thedan84 Yeah, Realm is nice, but at least iOS and macOS SDKs have by default a somewhat sensible database interface with CoreData. On Android you need to write SQLite commands yourself in your database wrapper.

@neilco Here the sunrise at this time wouldn't be impossible…
But, the sun rose 4 hours ago also here, and it will set in an hour.

@matigo Oh yeah, I had completely forgotten how the shows didn't evolve at all… Also, they all had that tech douchebag attitude: only the workflows the hosts have are the only valid ones.
An income loop? Does that produce infinite amount of money? ;-P

@streakmachine MacBreak Weekly reminded me… I unsubscribed from many of the popular (Apple) tech shows 2 or 3 years ago. They were all about the same topic and they all parroted the same opinions and kept on cross-referencing the other shows. Also, whenever there was something that rattled the cage in a big way, they all had the same lame explanations and never even considered the alternative viewpoints to the issue. Back then I decided that I had had enough. I also unsubscribed from numerous RSS feeds, they were just the same shit in a textual from. Have been a lot happier since.

@matigo That was something a Trump supporter said to a Finnish reporter yesterday, or something along those lines.
"You speak only Islam in Finland." I don't know whether I should laugh (which would most likely piss off a person who says that) or cry (which would make that person feel superior, because only babies cry, or something)…
@jws I will be using NSUrlSession and CoreData in the iOS (and hopefully macOS) version(s) of my app instead of Alamofire and Realm, just because I want to learn how to use those two. The apps we write at work seem to always use those 3rd-party libs, so there's very little chances to learn these default libraries.

@jws Ah, Firebase allows one to send targeted push notifications as an admin, it's not a general push notification service. Let's ignore that then.
