I wonder how much of the $425 is simply to dissolve the word mark so that the word 'good' can go back to being an adjective in the phrase 'good technology.'
Bon Cop, Bad Cop[0] isn't TV (maybe a TV Movie, now) but its use of Quebecois was, to me (my formative years spent within 3km of the Quebec border), quite accurate.
tl;dr - if you're adding two numbers in your algorithm (like finding the midpoint in a binary search), make sure their sum can be represented in the resultant type.
The bug is subtle. It does not arise out of engineering failure, but rather is a byproduct of engineering success manifesting itself as a durable solution being used beyond any time frame anticipated in the specification. It's of a kind with Y2k or Y2038.
You can see that New York is pretty much still considered 'correct' whereas Odessa, TX is rather behind. Egregious examples worldwide include Argentina, most of Saskatchewan, Western China, most of Russia, and Eastern Greenland.
unsandboxed behaviour being abused... you mean like all other apps written natively for any platform since the dawn of time? There's no vetting process for Windows utilities or bash scripts you find online. The closest you can get is that it's hosted on a store, but that's a mobile paradigm and is a problem as much as it is a solution.
I know what you mean but if a web page just has to to request "run me as an app" to get unsandboxed access then you know every popup from every shady site is going to have a go. It will kill the feature as dead as ActiveX plugins. I want to have the cake and eat it.
[apple-]mobile-web-app-capable yes [1][2] is a non-standard meta-tag that some browsers detect in order to identify webpages who, when launched from the homescreen, want to be treated app-like. (they want you to ditch the navigation capabilities (back, urlfield) of the Browser as they provide their own, for instance)
Add to Homescreen is something that is available as a bookmark-alike feature in most/all mobile browsers. It is user-initiated, so if the user doesn't look for it, there is no prompt (unless the webapp provides it).
The other app-y bits (App Manifest for prefetching and caching the rest of the app for offline use, localstorage webfs and assorted others for persistence, responsive design using the picture element and flexbox) are all provided for webpages as much as app-like sites.
I would also add prescription eyewear to that list. These are not optional costs when you need them, and cause bigger problems when ignored. So why is it being left to employers, as if it's an optional benefit? The government is saying it's an acceptable level of health to not be able to see.
Let's leave the truly extended, non-prescription services, like massages, to companies to provide as benefits.
