Looks good! Suggestion; I would maybe not use TS transpiled Javascript in the code samples here - https://learn.temporal.io/tutorials/typescript/nextjs . I think it looks a bit messy & hard to follow.

All I read was "why we're okay with it being slow". EDIT: This is also not really a Rails issue per se, but maybe architectural.

Same reason people don't notice disruptive advertising anymore.

It was, but then went mainstream. And much like Metallica, the later stuff just isn't as good.

I was just thinking that this feels like it's from like a decade ago - and then boom, 2012 at the bottom. Still good points though. I do believe design also has a culture/trend ebb & flow to it, so stuff we see from 2012 actua

I've worked at companies like this - to the point where even C-level people behave this way - it is some of the most frustrating times I've had trying to get shit done when my work has been adjacent to another department. Very acc

I really don't like articles like these. The author takes a cute analogy and turns it into guiding principals. > Physical UIs can be more intuitive and usable than screens Physical UIs also don't need to help the user navigate

Ties up pretty well with my own experience. Eating after exercise always feels like a chore.

This look interesting, but a bit of a headache to scale.

Some days I'm thankful not to be part of the RoR community for reasons such as these.

> Settings are not a design failure When have settings ever been considered a design failure?

I use it on web/AppleTV/FireTV & IMO it doesn't have a great user experience on any platform. Generally it's a bit jerky/laggy & also often gets glitchy (on FireTV at least) post very long running videos. I&

I really wouldn't use Amazon Prime as a shining example of WA.

Spotify's song radio feature is killer for me. I've found so many great new (very niche) artists. Of course royalties can always be better.

Get ready for art to become... design.

My comment was specific to employment & "menial labor", as is the issue of universal basic income.

For me these studies are utterly meaningless without real world long-term data. > would not reduce people’s willingness to work > The psychologists also found an indication that people with a basic income look for work that suits them

Do not confuse threatening bodily harm to a person with free speech - they are very different.

You've had censorship in Germany for a very long time now, but I don't think people like to think of it as censorship. You (literally) can land up in jail for verbalising certain things. IMO, the scary part is how positively peopl

> without any meaningful service costs Wow, that's bold. Do you mean service cost to the anonymous individual? Or overall service cost? Because if it's the latter, I think you might be very sorely mistaken.

Very true.

No offense, but my intention was to say people who built the web (infrastructure/protocols), not building for the web.

by beardedman 5y ago
The people who are advocating web3 are not the people who were part of building web1 & web2 (whatever those even mean). They're people who are idealistic & seem to disregard (or are ignorant of) the effort in building infrastru

Tech unfortunately moves at a blistering pace. Perhaps see where you'd like to pick things up and do a crash course of some sort (Udemy, etc).

Tech is always the misnomer because it's english everywhere. Honestly, I'm shocked quite regularly with how little & how badly english is spoken in Germany (outside of tech) - and how rude people can be (esp. over the phone) i

My personal philosophy on this is to not live life by tactics like "anti-mimetic" or "counter cultural". Like what you like, be present & don't treat life like a to-do list. There's room to be well read alc

To me, this more sounds like something easy to nitpick. > The fact that people from different English speaking countries have issues communicating is already a big hint about how odd is English phonetically. News to me. I've never m

Is this supposed to be laced with opinion & personal philosophy? If so fine, but if it's meant to be objective then it fails quite badly & quite obviously.

From build reliability engineer and mission integration engineer to... program manager?

Yes. I think it's quite easy being yourself in the workplace by remembering that 1) you're working with other people who don't always share your viewpoint & 2) realising that there is a sense of professionalism that is im
