I don’t know about other countries, but it is taught in India in a few schools I am exposed to.

Analog wall clocks are fairly common in most Indian households.


Don’t the matter compatible ones work with any hub?


Native calculator is available on iPad now. I think starting last year.


Having never owned a tablet, finding out now that iPad didn’t have a native calculator until 2024 is shocking!


yeah but can't you use the ipads built in ssh to just use bc on a linux that you remote to?


Is this a parody of the Dropbox comment or is this sincere? I don’t think iPads have built in ssh… and even if they do, this is a far cry from an app. It assumes you have a Linux machine on your local network and are willing and able to set up ssh to connect to it as well as learn command line tooling for making calculations.


Bay Area isn't rest of US and Canada. Based on my limited experience most of Bay Area looks like that, not just Starbucks.

The Starbucks's near me in Canada are fine. If they get rid of the long line of mobile order people, they'd be pretty fine.


Also Kape was formerly known as Crossrider and had alleged ties to shady apps in the past.

Depends on where in the US. Most populated places have inexpensive internet. Smaller towns have these issues because there's not much competition.


If it's just a signing thing that Apple checks, you open run it by doing `xattr -d com.apple.quarantine filename` first.


Why isn't it signed properly though.


Probably because that requires a paid account ($100/yr).


or I think if you right click and then open the app, macOS lets you run it.


fwiw this won't work in macOS 15.6


Lot of older India gov sites still seem to use these tags.

I just applied for an evisa for India. It was horrendous. Pages wouldn’t continue without telling you what was wrong (too many or not enough commas in the address/phone field was one). When returning to the form the pre filled data had quotes in, which then wasn’t valid. Missing labels on fields. Then the hilarious “what countries in the last ten years, list all or get deported” combined with “you have too many countries”. They only allow 20.

I don’t know if it’s the state of development in the country as a whole or just the lowest bidder for a government service problem.


All of that is true. However, to be fair, these are older sites. The newer ones are generally cleaner and usable[1]. Even the services provided is much more streamlined.

This was to prepare you for navigating once there. I still have flashbacks to the Delhi Airport. Every time I turned a corner there was someone there asking to see the name on my itinerary (a random sheet of paper I printed out hat I didn't think I'd actually need) with my passport and ticket. It happened so many times I almost missed my layover.


Man, I'm glad that in general form inputs have gotten a lot better. I was reading The Design Of Everyday Things the other day, and it was mentioning how most websites required an exact formatting and didn't provide an explanation...


It's simple, really. You're not allowed into India if you've been to more than 20 countries in the last ten years. What are you trying to hide with all that globetrotting?


Holy crap, that's a website alright


Looks to me like it was a bug. Not giving access to any contacts broke the app completely but limited access works fine except for an annoying persistent in app notification.


You can now setup Vocal Shortcuts[1] which can be used to run any shortcut or action with almost any trigger word and without saying "Siri". However, I'm not certain if it can wake the device from sleep or not.
