Vulnerabilities in CocoaPods Open the Door to Supply Chain Attacks Against Thousands of iOS and macOS Applications (www.evasec.io)
submitted 2 days ago by balder1993@programming.dev to c/swift@programming.dev

“E.V.A Information Security researchers uncovered several vulnerabilities in the CocoaPods dependency manager that allows any malicious actor to claim ownership over thousands of unclaimed pods and insert malicious code into many of the most popular iOS and MacOS applications. These vulnerabilities have since been patched.”

Is there a way to keep Linux responsive when at ~100% CPU usage? by balder1993 in c/linux@programming.dev
[-] balder1993@programming.dev 6 points 2 weeks ago

There’s no free lunch after all. Go’s quick compilation also means the language is very simple, which means all the complexity shifts to the program’s code.

[Meta] Could we have a weekly discussion/help thread? Might help people who don't want to open their own but still have questions by balder1993 in c/linux@programming.dev
[-] balder1993@programming.dev 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

It helps to look up certain concepts in the Wiki (Arch Wiki is probably the most complete and well explained) as you come across them. The idea is to increase knowledge little by little, but over time it compounds.

Apple didn't fix Swift's biggest flaw (danielchasehooper.com)

“The Swift compiler is notoriously slow due to how types are inferred. Every June I hope that Apple will announce that they fixed it; sadly this is not that year.”

What programming language ruby, python og javascript? by balder1993 in c/programming@programming.dev

So many websites out there are built on Django, Flask, etc. (YouTube must have spent a decade using Python, Instagram, Threads etc. all use Python and optimize as they need).

If Inheritance is so bad, why does everyone use it? by balder1993 in c/programming_languages@programming.dev
[-] balder1993@programming.dev 8 points 2 months ago

dependency injection is an abomination

I don’t think so, dependency injection has made testing easier in all static typed code bases I worked on.

How can Rust be so fast in the TechEmpower Web Framework Benchmarks? by balder1993 in c/rust@programming.dev
[-] balder1993@programming.dev 15 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Benchmarks should be like a scientific paper: they should describe all the choices made and why for the configurations. At least that will show if the people doing it really understand what they’re comparing.

Flutter takes the stage at GDC by balder1993 in c/gamedev@programming.dev
[-] balder1993@programming.dev 9 points 3 months ago

As a non game dev, does Flutter really offer anything compared to traditional 2D game engines? I thought most of them are also open source?

Java users on macOS 14 running on Apple silicon systems should consider delaying the macOS 14.4 update (blogs.oracle.com)
submitted 3 months ago by balder1993@programming.dev to c/java@programming.dev
4 comments fedilink

“An issue introduced by macOS 14.4, which causes Java process to terminate unexpectedly, is affecting all Java versions from Java 8 to the early access builds of JDK 22. There is no workaround available, and since there is no easy way to revert a macOS update, affected users might be unable to return to a stable configuration unless they have a complete backup of their systems prior to the OS update.”

25 Reasons Why Java is Still Around in 2023 by balder1993 in c/programming@programming.dev
[-] balder1993@programming.dev 12 points 6 months ago

The whole article seems a bit forced with many topics that are present in most other languages too. I don’t think “Faster release cycle” is one reason Java got where it is today.

Stick with kotlin? by balder1993 in c/learn_programming@programming.dev
[-] balder1993@programming.dev 8 points 6 months ago

Android dev will be overwhelming for a beginner. If you’re still learning, I’d suggest starting with some command line stuff just to get the hang of the standard library, concepts etc.

You can use any IDE for simple stuff but Android Studio is tailored for Android framework complexities that added up over time.

Apple’s use of Swift and SwiftUI in iOS 17 (blog.timac.org)

“Now that iOS 17 is available, let’s analyze its built-in apps to answer a few questions: How many binaries are in iOS 17? Which programming languages are used to develop these apps? How many apps are written with Swift? What is the percentage of apps using SwiftUI versus UIKit?”

Predicate Macro in Swift for filtering and searching (www.avanderlee.com)

0 comments fedilink

#Predicate is a new Macro available since Swift 5.9 and Xcode 15, allowing you to filter or search a data collection. It can be seen as a replacement for the old-fashioned NSPredicate we’re used to from the Objective-C days.
