RSI looks simple on paper. It’s a 0-100 momentum oscillator. Everyone knows what it looks like on a chart. Most developers assume implementing it is an afternoon’s work.

An iOS crash that appeared under conditions that resisted every attempt to reproduce it reliably. If you read the first post, you know the setup: a third-party Flutter-backed ticketing SDK embedded… Continue reading
