I thought someone here might have an opinion about this.

I've tried it and had problems importing and running pods.Especially the google api pods. Objective C project didn't have such problems.
it ain’t broke, it doesn’t have enough features yet.

As I see it, Swift is the modern version of Objective-C the same way C# is the modern version of C++.
Other than that, I cannot say more as I only code in C++ on windows. 
I'd rather be phishing!

The C# to C++ relationship is rather different. Surely it would be better to compare C++ with systems languages such as D or Rust? The latter two being "modern" versions of C++. Though, of course, we do now have modern C++.

A colleague has used it a bit recently and likes it. However, he more-or-less went straight to Swift, by-passing Objective C, having fairly recently switched to an iphone.

I should be asking if anyone can compare Swift to C#. My opinion of Objective-C is not very good and I expect Objective-C users to like a replacement, even if it is 10 or 15 years behind C#.

Ditto, from my brief acquaintance with it. I think most coming from a traditional C-family (i.e., C syntax) background find it odd.

How did you manage that?

My first assumption is that the photo was staged.

If so - why?

1st thing is that the amount if force required to cause that much damage to the truck would be substantial. Given that, one expectation is that there would be a transfer of yellow paint from the pole onto the truck. I don't see any yellow paint in any damaged portion on the truck in the photo. Additionally, unless the truck can go from zero to 90 kph in 5 feet, which would greatly exceed the amount of torque required to maintain tire grip, there would be tire marks, however, there are no visible tire marks on the concrete behind the truck.

There's a lot of assumptions in there and I'm far from convinced that staging is the most likely scenario on that basis. It really takes far less to do that sort of damage than you imagine as the whole point of modern design is to crumple rather than resist. It would be perfectly possible to do that damage at 20mph[^]. Your point about tyre marks eludes me completely. The vehicle could have been travelling for some time on the paved area which stretches away to the right of the picture behind the men standing there. There is no need for any acceleration, let alone from zero, to have taken place within the scope of the picture. Additionally how do you explain the radiator leak looking exactly like a radiator leak springing from that point should?

What I can surmise from the picture, which is lacking in quality, leads me to believe that it being staged is more probable than real. The truck itself appears to be a Toyota Tacoma. Since all we have to go on is the picture and spacial reasoning, all I can say is that I don't think that the sidewalk to the right was wide enough to accommodate the width of the truck. If that was the case, I still don't see how it could be possible to turn the truck the ~2.5 feet to the left in the ~5 feet between the poles while moving at a velocity high enough to cause that damage which is 20+ mph without leaving tire marks anywhere on the concrete, it's a truck, not a sports car. And that radiator leak could be a jug of water pored out on the ground, or Mt. Dew just to make it look convincing. I still say the photo is staged. It more likely that the truck is a junker that hit a wooden electric pole, which explains why the pole itself looks undamaged, that was pushed back through the gap between the poles and then they pored out some water to help complete the illusion.

It's true - whilst he was driving along the side of the building, why didn't he veer around the entrance so he could avoid falling off the wall and onto the street? Weird.

Michael Jackson statue 'for Neverland' installed in India - BBC News[^]
The sculptors repeatedly watched Jackson's Beat It music video to get his posture correct, and studied "thousands" of photographs to get his features correct.
I suggest that they check the aspect ratio on their monitors - I suspect it's set to "stretch image to fit"

For the uninitiated this is the character of that name in "Stella" the brilliant Sky TV series created and written by and also starring Ruth Jones!

Hi All,
Has anyone else had Fire Fox do an update and become horribly unstable (won't open at all). I applied an update to one machine just as a test, have declined the update for other machines. Anyone know of a way to roll back the update with out starting Firefox (because it won't open)?
