It’s barely functional in Safari on iOS. More importantly, none of the suggested navigation patterns create any value for end users. Is there anyone who wished that web page navigation was slower, less predictable, and harder to discover?

Is there a reliable device certification that I should look for when buying electronics? Also, after reading this thread I decided to invest into a power consumption metering device.

A somewhat tangential question. Why is Alphabet not decoupling Google from Google Ads / Google AdSense? Having Google’s name constantly in the news cycle because of their ad practices has ruined their reputation (deservingly). Wouldn’t

When using PayPal it’s easier and safer to contest the cancellation fee. In my experience Adobe just didn’t bother to respond, so PayPal refunded me the fee.

Depending on your needs, there is also Pixelmator Pro and (I just found it, haven’t used) Affinity Designer. Pixelmator Pro has all the features I missed from Photoshop and more. Both apps are not subscription based.

I did exactly that around 4 months ago. Luckily I subscribed using PayPal, so when Adobe charged me the cancellation fee I immediately contested it. My guess was that Adobe won’t bother to deal with a contested fee of around $100. They didn

In my experience it’s used more and more as a proxy term for a “generalist”. You should feel comfortable to work across different layers of a stack, whatever that stack is. Edit: one clear difference I noticed between full stack and non-ful

That sounds like an unnatural conversation to have with a partner. Sharing specific negative things about your immediate experience and then slapping “I am grateful that I don’t live in a war-torn country” on top. Saying that, I agree that

The rise is somewhat predictable and surprising at the same time. Personally I don’t think there is anything more empowering (in this domain) than knowing that you can be in control of the conditions of your own death. The surprising part i

Sorry for answering with a question… but it’s an obvious one: how would Meta benefit from banning Apple devices? They would certainly lose a lot of money in the process with no clear win. Other than, perhaps, an authoritarian “Zuck said so”

I am trying to break down your response and none of the parts make sense. Adobe should have discontinued its OS X lineup in 2005 and only decided against that in the name of security? And now in 2022 because of that fateful decision Adobe i

That’s about the same distance as SF to LA. Not a daily commute, but some people do drive this far weekly.

Would we really have a discussion on HN if this was a different high-end car with failed emergency braking?

The amount of revenue that is tied to EU visits is smaller than the cost of making technical changes and paying legal to verify that everything is GDPR-compliant.

We don’t know from the article whether AutoPilot was engaged. So at this point it’s just an (emotional) speculation.

Or could be that similar accidents happen fairly frequently with other cars but links are not posted to HN because they won’t result in a discussion. Tesla posts, on the other hand, lead to a never ending heated criticism.

While not necessarily an act of war, it’s definitely an escalation. As is common with escalations it all depends on who/how/what/why and effective diplomacy. Eg launching a missile is far more aggressive than hacking and dest

Twitter is a public company. We can not ignore the effect this situation has on the investors (regardless of whether someone thinks "they deserve it", or something equally irrelevant).

Perhaps something similar to Flutter could be the right direction? Rendering everything in a canvas but still use web technologies for dev. There are already pretty advanced DAWs and video editors in the browser, so the UI isn’t the problem

I am not sure if Unity will ever fill the gap left by Flash. Flash IDE was easy to use even for very novice creators (at least at a basic level, not talking about ActionScript). So there was a ton of simple animations, silly games, just wei

I still don’t quite understand why we don’t have a successful IDE / editor based on web technologies that would be anywhere close to Flash in terms of popularity. Is the problem rooted not just in web technologies but in the fact that

How can you separate speech and reach in this specific case? Twitter could allow all speech but limit reach, ie shadow ban. Would that satisfy your notion of free speech?

Replace drugs with surgery in this train of thought and you will notice that it does in fact make sense. This is not a war on the poor, psychedelic medicine requires care when administered.
