İ cannot believe you are ratiolising this. Refugees are not the same as criminals. İ agree it is not racist, but this is a violation of human rights. Slowly but surely rights of people in the US are being chipped away, like boiling frogs.

My first thought for this name change would be the European meat lobby prohibiting meat related names for non-animal products.

There is the trahscan icon in the first image, but that is hardly a cognitive hurdle. I agree icons are not always the best option, but I'd need better arguments (and bad examples) than this to stop using them altogether.

İ've been using Termux (and Vim) to code on my phone for years, way easier than this setup.

I don't know how intentional your choice of words was, but describing education as a 'product' is a sad reminder of the current state of the world. It's as if every action and experience in life must be translated into m

They tested it with 16 developers, so not enough data for conclusive evidence.

I don't get it. What is the point? What is the top-right toggle? Why doesn't it find the color I search for? At one point I did see an add-color button, where is it now? Doesn't rgb hex space have sixteen million colors? Why

Being self employed I made my own invoicing software because I don't like financial data in the cloud, and because most software had really bad invoice styling. All data is kept on local machine, and can be synced peer2peer (ie to phon

I've been using it for a year now. Google had been giving increasingly bad results. Kagi doesn't have adds and works surprisingly wel in my own language and location. Worth every cent.

You're absolutely right on the 'why' part, but sadly a lot of custom implementations are annoying in terms of UX and accessibility. My only point here is that building proper custom components is far from easy, it takes a lot

JS does not 'just work'. This is why a lot of these custom components have bad touch interaction and no accessibility. Take the datepicker; the native mobile version works great, why annoy users with a custom component?

Not really, simplification by analogies such as this always distort. You seem to imply Palestine is stronger.

Kagi doesn't save search terms by default: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/settings/privacy.html Google is a lot better at keeping a profile on you whether you like it or not.

I'm on my fifth smartphone (since 2009). But I've always used Android. It could be that iOS users are more inclined to replace perfectly working hardware.

I mostly only ever use the form: "This should be ... " with a possible explanation why. We're all mature enough to not take it personally, so I'm not going to beat around the bush by writing a lot of proza. The imperativ

A nice scifi on that subject is Blindsight by Peter Watts: can something be extremely inteligent and not be sentient?
