The message you're replying to did not mean that "ctrl-s" is literally the only input, but implied the whole file saving workflow that begins with "ctrl-s". The fact that you're pointing out that the other inte

That assumes clean swaps between personalities, I'd wager that it gets messier than that for some.

In some markets at least, like cars, this blandness is a sales optimization. Strong distinct colors are more likely to block a sale than bland generic ones. It may not be exactly the same in other markets, but there's still a cost to o

It's just the pendulum swinging back the other way. Nothing has changed, we just have a generation of engineers that grew up buying into the microservices as panacea narrative who are more mature and are teaching the next generation no

I think it's more an observation that the act of learning can itself be uncomfortable. So in the language example, going to a meetup and feeling awkward while struggling to use the language you're learning would be considered some

Not the greatest example. If someone has incurred a $100 debt to you, then, from a legal perspective, you must consider delivery of a thousand dimes as having paid the debt. You don't get a choice on that without prior contractual agre
