- Lots of SPAs now are code-split too for what it's worth so you shouldn't really have large bundles to download if you're splitting things well.
- You own a Tesla don't you?
- In Counter Strike I've seen it be an actual issue too where a player's view is blocked by a body and their teammates don't have the same issue while spectating them.
- Firefox has a better extension API and uBlock Origin is able to do more to block ads than it can on Chrome.
- I appreciate that you not only have a nuanced critique but an alternative proposal as well.
- I could have sworn the dessert names were code names and they did numbered releases too the entire time but they did drop the 1.x numbering for just whole versions.
- In my experience one way this manifests is how every new project you'll get PM and management rushing you to use some dead simple user authentication so you do then 6-8 months later they're asking you to add RBAC to all the features you've had nothing like that planned for. Like it's the most obvious eventuality with any of these apps sold B2B and it's always put off and fucks up any architectures and forces various "pivots" because management couldn't be bothered to listen and prioritize foundational stuff.
- In my experience even when you want to do those things more often than not it's management that sees it as a waste of time and wants you to get to coding. So many times we've had to "pivot" in projects because management couldn't be bothered to let us plan any architecture.
- If the screen is facing your leg you can get the capacitive touch to trigger. I learned this while snowboarding so I would have my screen facing outward, of course that puts it at higher risk of smashing though.
- Not even just a guarantee in writing, the only thing that actually holds these assholes is regulations with actual punishments.
- These kinds of questions are such bullshit too just getting promises from these people are meaningless. Ticketmaster "promised" that buying LiveNation wouldn't lead to more price gouging, venues extorting artists, etc and all that happened nearly instantly because they were able to consolidate the market further and vertically integrate more.
- Bigger vehicles love utilizing "physics right of way" to get what they want and it sounds like that's what happened here. Even pick-up truck drivers do stuff where they basically put you in situations where you give them what they want or they run into you and take no damage. Big vehicles on the road are an absolute problem at all levels.
- > We just caved (again) entirely to the transit unions in the last contract negotiation. We have subway lines & trains wired up for 1 man operation but run them staffed with 2 due to union work rules.
I don't think this is a good point to make when we've literally had several disastrous derailments thanks to poor regulations and rules around safety and train companies attacking unions. The transit unions are absolutely right to demand 2 workers for fail safes, "efficiency" isn't the be-all-end-all goal especially when you're talking about trains full of people who could die in an accident.
- The third-party apps predate the first-party even. Reddit had been a website only for years then bought the most popular iOS third-party client as a starting point so like you said it's very much a rug-pull.
- Yeah all the way back when Reddit sent out takedown threats on most 3rd party apps for their names (I use Relay which used to be called Reddit Relay, can't recall the Apollo app name before) and launched their own apps it was pretty clear.
- It's kind of disgusting seeing people even entertain the notion that this is right. It's corporations bullying people and controlling things they have no right controlling.
- I swear it's been a clause in their phones since they were called Nexus instead of Pixel where you breach the warranty when you unlock the bootloader. I never bother anymore but when I used to swap the Android versions myself I recall running into something saying as much.
- I hear skiers left/right or looker's left/right often. Usually looker's is said while on the lift or the base of the mountain.
- The blog literally just embeds the video in its post with a paragraph of intro. Additionally it's the blog of the same Youtuber you have so much contempt for.
- No experience in gaming but given the amount of creative control I'm given in other dev work it's not surprising when you're talking about projects at the scale of most video games.
- It's funny Youtube Music was mentioned because Google Play Music was actually great for listening to your music and having a curated library of stuff you uploaded along with the music on the service. When they killed that in favor of Youtube Music I noticed the "library" experience there is seemingly intentionally hobbled. The artist page is sorted by the "artist" field not "album artist" and then on top of that instead of using a nicer page[0] they use a playlist view of all their songs. Additionally the library view is intentionally split with a "uploads" and "library" tab unlike in Google Play Music where it would provide a nice shared experience with the nicer artist pages as well.

- It seems to be a policy thing across the nation to have police not live in the communities they police. Part of it I'm sure is some amount of fear of retribution but I think it's really to avoid the officers from developing empathy towards the community members. I recall years ago my roommate working at a fast food restaurant and he advanced to manager level and they immediately moved him from the store he worked at to another to make sure he was more detached with his underlings and it seems like a similar tactic.
- Damn nearly getting cut in half by a meteor while skydiving!
- Yeah it's like they've never walked around a college campus and noticed that every other building is named after some alumni that has made large donations.
- I always assume the author or publication stands to gain from being right and is attempting to influence things for their preferred outcome.
- This is a disgusting viewpoint to have.
