Automatically Packaging a Haskell Library as a Swift Binary XCFramework

Announcing xcframework or: the happy path for wiring a Haskell dependency to your Swift app I’ve written about Haskell x Swift interoperability before. Calling Haskell from Swift is about marshalling and the foreign function interface.

is a senior editor and founding member of The Verge who covers gadgets, games, and toys. He spent 15 years editing the likes of CNET, Gizmodo, and Engadget.

"As our appeal will show, the EC [European Commission] is mandating how we run our store and forcing business terms which are confusing for developers and bad for users," the compan

A subscription won’t fix the biggest problem I have with the Galaxy Watch

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority In mid-June, a Samsung official hinted that the company might soon monetize parts of the Samsung Health experience, likely by placing future AI-enhanced features behind a paywall. Personally, I don’t mind paying for a service if it adds value to my life — what’s more valuable than good health? However, paying to unlock more features won’t fix the existing issues with the platform. To be fair, I don’t dislike what Samsung is doing with Health. The current expe

Apple formally appeals €500 million DMA fine in the EU
