Sup /g/, this is an every-day-carry thread, but instead of just spamming the discussion with photos of random objects, I was wondering if we could get a consensus of what a person in today's world should have on their person at all times?
Assume on average, since a person in one part of the world (hell even one part of the U.S.) might not need to carry exactly what someone else would. That kind of goes for male/female, profession, etc. as well. Different people need to have different things. Should everyone /EDC/ a bottle of water? Maybe, maybe not. What about a packet of aspirin? Or disposable tissues?
Let's say everyone needs to carry a wallet, right? What about:
>pen
>paper
>multi-tool
Should everyone have that on them at all times? They're all cheap, extremely convenient, and small. Or, is it better to say that everyone should have a smartphone by now, which even the most low-income person could afford, given the more moderately priced models.
What do you think?
Wallet, phone and keys
I carry wallet, phone, keys, Power bank

So you're saying everyone DOES carry a wallet, phone and keys, or that those are the bare-minimum things that everyone should carry, and everything else is extra?

I think they couldn't have fucked up more badly than this.
Well, Objective-C was very VERY bad, and I sincerely feel those who had to deal with it and develop iOS apps for a living, but at least Objective-C was an actual language.
Swift looks like a half-finished product. I just can't believe that someone authorized the release. It would have NEVER happened with Steve. RIP.
I'll start listing what's wrong with swift and why it should be considered a joke:
>struct class enum types which are almost the same
>optional types. god this is top, it literally solves something that was never a problem. passing around NULL values has to do with sw design skills and no language feature will ever be able to prevent a shitty developer from dereferencing a NULL pointer. optional types just remind you that the thing might be null, more or less like Haskell's Maybe, but who stops you from unwrapping a var that contains nothing? oh but you knew it could be nothing...
>guard statements and optional binding. this feature smells like they absolutely had to come up with some way to justify using optional types
>function calls that require to specify the name of the parameter except for the first onedoSomething("param1", param2: "param2")
>Xcode can't refactor swift code
>function signatures with parameter aliases. just... why?
>verbosity. it was Apple's chance to give up lengthy Obj-C-style method names. some people argue that code documents itself. it's just bullshit.
>no implementation of a default XML parser
>unintuitive ridiculous syntax. splitting a string in java is someString.split("-"). splitting a string in swift is someString.characters.split{$0=="-"}.map(String.init)
>casting with "as" keyword. Oh and don't forget to force casting with 'as!' or 'as?'
>?? operator
>just WHY did they feel the need to invent a new syntax? why?

All of the extremely popular statically typed languages are basically shit anyways. You have to get down into niche territory like Ocaml and F# if you want a decent statically typed language.
OO was a mistake.

Why do tablets tend to be much cheaper than smartphones with similar specs?
>>55342126
mobile chipsets and licensing costs
>>55342126
It's harder to make things smaller.
Also because idiots are prepared to pay more for grossly over-specced phones
>>55342126
Because people don't see the real price of their "free" smartphone with a contract, so companies charge whatever they want.

Actual Apple products from the 80's & 90's that never came to be. Some look pretty cool.
Holy fuck these are aesthetic. Any model names/numbers?
Recommend me a simple FOSS FTP server for windows, filezilla does not work, can't find shit, wiki's empty. I tried several others, but they don't have a web interface, which means they are useless for me.
You shouldn't have to fiddle with all of that, Windows just werks.
>>55342033
I don't know a single thing that windows does better than a piece of third party software.
>filezilla doesn't work
You're doing something wrong.
Are there any programming IDEs that don't suck balls?
- Basic editor features like code folding, search/replace, customizable code formatter, syntax/error checking
- Inline documentation
- Handles at least C/C++, Java, Python
- Can run programs of the above in console
- Can run programs not inside a "project".
- Isn't ugly as fuck
- Has no traces of severe mental retardation in its design
If it doesn't fit one of the above, then it sucks balls.
Do you know any that don't? Platform is irrelevant.

>>55341773
C++ IDEs are universally shit. VS is the closest to anything useable but even this shits the bed when you load big projects, so you have to disable all the useful functions like IntelliSense and basically end up with a fancy text editor and a "run button"
Eclipse is good enough for java
If you have a Python project that is big enough that it would need an IDE, kill yourself
