Same intensity of text with gray background for skip, greyed out text for "disabled" button would probably make most sense

The "correct" would be just using different background. Hell, if you want to guide users put a gray background on skip option at least. The page instead just makes it white, like it wasn't a button at all and we can only gues

Defining "correct" as "parroted by most" is dangerous at best.

Just be fucking happy they are not using football fields or multiples of some tall building length as unit. The worst I saw was some cook telling the amount of pepper in recipe in cranks of pepper grinder .

Missing "both are wrong" option. For example, it's always incorrect to have clickable button without any kind of border and same color like background and it does it for "skip". It's just dark pattern to funnel

I suspect most of that was due to company being forced to do remote coz of COVID and of course without change of way of working that didn't work very well. Some jobs are worse candidates for that too and if you force everyone to WFH

Yes but those people don't live in the office... the office wouldn't need to exist in the first place. Could be apartment block instead. Most people also like to come back to warm house so heating is running during the day

It's a skill you can train. Just that most corporations that got shifted to WFH coz of pandemic didn't bother to train or revisit their processes. That's partly (the other part is managers clinging to their jobs) why some yel

From my experiences (everywhere from full office to full WFH), even in heavily technical low management environments it still feels more productive to do any of the planning stuff in person. In my case small percentage of total time and mak

I mean, just bigger apartment is also solution that doesn't have that much of an environmental impact (the space "wasted" is saved by less office buildings).

That seems the same problem of "why train track spacing is like it is" and the answer is "nothing actually technical". 1,2,5 series woud've been much more useful considering how often in electronics you need integer

>my resistor of 7 ohms will be simulated by 4 parallel resistors instead of 5 (I am accepting equal fractions). If we had just 1,2,5 series that would just be 2 resistors tho ? 3 resistors to get 9,8; 2 to get 6,4,3 The whole thing seems

That's also how many higher end analog chips are made, just blast it with laser till it fits tolerance. Making a bunch of chips in less precise process then trimming them chip by chip ends up cheaper than going to more expensive proces

That's extra effort too, might as well fix it on the spot. Also you might not have the data to trigger it in first place. If your todo is "optimize caching of this data" it's hard to see overall system hitratio to know w

Also you can just use one magnitude lower resistor... 10 isn't odd but 1 is. Honestly the explanation looks like someone tried to reverse-engineer a mistake into logic.
