The text-entry box doesn't work. You can click on it and it animates, but there's no cursor and typing does nothing. Desktop Safari, latest version.

IBM-compatibles. They're still PCs.

I actually bring this up when they ask me again. "Didn't I just enter that?"

Yes, this "statistic" makes no sense. No fucking way was there a net addition of jobs.

Stabilizing on shit is a sad thing to double down on. But Microsoft is doing that at every opportunity now. Witness their offensive, relentless hounding to log in, log in, LOG IN WITH YOUR "MICROSOFT ACCOUNT!!!!!!"... or you can&#

If a pilot can't be expected to maintain the pitch of a plane on takeoff, he has no business flying ANYTHING. What Boeing did (and is STILL doing) is expect pilots to know or remember obscure NON-PILOTAGE (and in the case of MCAS, BURI

Except, of course, from Boeing's aircraft-software QA... which killed hundreds of people already.

Annoying as shit. If I'm trying to log into something with an E-mail address (already a fail, but that's another topic) and password, and I click "forgot password," don't take me to a form where I have to re-enter t

It's missing a critical one, which once seemed obvious: Distinguish between static information and controls. Also, don't HIDE inapplicable controls; GREY THEM OUT. That way people learn 1. They exist 2. Where they reside 3. There&

I agree with the importance of consistency, but disagree with "Office and (Neo)Vim aren’t exceptional examples of UI, but they are uniquely stable." Office is not stable, at least over the long term. The hated "ribbon" m

The movie was creepy as hell at the time. I saw it on late-night TV as a little kid, and the Terminator-esque ending stuck with me. The show could have taken it to a new level, and did flirt with doing so. Interesting note: At some point in

It really was a Terminator precursor.

That's what I thought, thanks. As you note, the "solution" is absurd, and insulting and offensive. The older models should be pulled too. WTF.

Not always. And "information" is an aggrandizement of TikTok content. Facebook doesn't even occur to me anymore, and the only videos I see on Reddit are hosted on YouTube.

Actually, it's the new Max 7: https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/boein... It's not clear if older models suffer from the same defect.

I never used Node and went right to Deno, partly because NPM and packages sounded like a mess. So far it has been a good experience.

There's also the engine-nacelles-melting issue.

Screw TikTok. It's a cesspool of shit, compounded by its idiotic aspect ratio.

Read this: https://www.thebignewsletter.com/p/the-coming-boeing-bailout One of the tenets of the article is that the breakdown of the once-impermeable wall between civilian and military divisions has resulted in disast

I've been thinking the same thing. Boeing is doubling down on its disgraceful behavior with shit like this: https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/boein...

Still a win.

Not to mention that it was a fraud to begin with, trying to skirt pilot-training rules by having (monumentally incompetent) software tweak the controls of a perverted airframe design to make it imitate previous 737s. If they had done what t

Remember that Boeing was too stupid to put an odd number of pitot tubes on their planes, so the computer could have determined which airspeed indication was crazy. They put TWO. Matt Stoller wrote a compelling article asserting that the bre

I haven't noticed this hostility. Where did you see it?

If it's true, I absolutely think so!

"An" issue? Is it THE SAME issue?
58.
by ShadowBanThis01 3y ago
It sure is. Not enough hours in a day or a lifetime, unfortunately. So... I report the bullshit listings to LinkedIn or whoever; AKA yell at a cloud. Or THE cloud, in fact.

Translation: It's not worth it to write a cover letter or optimize your resumé for a particular job, because you won't make it through the screening process anyway.

I do not understand the point you're trying to make here.
