It was and still is shocking to me that this isn't taught in school.

What do you see as being the ideal UX for switching between devices?

My sister was sick enough from chicken pox that her doctor told her to take aspirin. She died about a week later from Reye's Syndrome. So no, we were all not well again.

I work at an agency building large websites for a variety of clients, and so far am in love with Gutenberg. The block based approach is huge, especially for many of our clients in the news and editorial space that write long pieces of conte

Nice to see some manual curation in this space. For some reason, I've found Twitch's categorization of this type of stream to be challenging to find (i.e. it's under creative, but hard to filter from the rest of that category

Surprised to still see so much hardware usage -- I'm curious where people find the advantages there? I have found over the past few years paper recognition in iOS apps works great, both third party like JotNot as well as what Apple int

Exactly. Or drastically changes their pricing model (see: Contentful). I understand the benefits of all of these individual services, but I also miss the days of the only service I had to worry about when I handed off a client site was host

It is interesting that soda (i.e. Coke, Pepsi) sales took a huge hit over the past decade as people became more health conscious and looked for healthier options, and yet people will still consume 2-4 times that many calories and sugars in

It appears I'm the only person so far here who absolutely does not mind a small increase in price for Amazon Prime. - I still get everything in two days. - I never get third party merchandise accidentally. - Amazon has, bar none, the b

This is pretty shocking, more so than any other autopilot related news or videos I've seen. It's something that no normal driver paying attention would ever do. This further confirms for me the feeling that autopilot in cars won&#

"By 2019, Americans earning less than $30,000 a year would be worse off under the Senate bill, CBO found. By 2021, Americans earning $40,000 or less would be net losers"

Yes. I mean, I still think it's kind of odd to have an entire Instagram feed of just pictures of yourself in front of code. But somehow Instagram's algorithm decided to show me tons of these types of pictures in the "Explore&

I'm shocked that there's an entire mini industry of sorts of pictures of younger woman posing in front of Javascript code. Not just a casual picture but with what looks like a carefully composed photograph.

Tell that to the tens of thousands of streamers on Twitch who have 10 or less viewers, who absolutely are not getting rich. Like others have mentioned it's a combination of luck to get the initial attention, and skill to maintain that

Me as well. Made it nearly unreadable. So distracting from an otherwise interesting story.

Do you often use your phone without looking at it?

This is wonderful. I just became interested in this subject but had difficult finding resources that weren't simple copy/paste examples, as you mentioned, or semester-long courses. Thank you!

I've seem to have noticed more of my Amazon deliveries being carried by USPS. Which I wouldn't have any issue with, but I've had the experience that USPS postal carriers are, well, less physically able to handle large package

I was going to say the same thing. Just in case you've forgotten or have yet to experience the horrendous food of Applebees or Buffalo Wild Wings, a quick Yelp search will remind you and redirect you to a more palatable option. (Though

Hear hear. I used Angular for about a year and tried to use React for about six months. Then I tried Vue and I couldn't not believe just how much more sense everything made. Give it a shot.

Nothing against this application personally, but I still do not understand the appeal of "personal assistants." If I want the weather, I click my weather app icon and see it instantly. If I want an Uber, I click Uber and request o

Oh, I would not be surprised if my SSN is floating somewhere out there because of something like this. So that's a good point. I was more making the comparison because I was looking for an analogy to something most people at least try

This may sound silly, but I consider any application that requests full read access to my Gmail account to be akin to asking for my social security number. I remember when the big wave of smart email apps first came out a few years ago, and

I consider myself, without doubt, to be an introvert. I hate parties with a passion, and am perfectly happy in my own head compared to even hanging out with a good friend. But I hated working at home. The isolation was terrible, not to ment

1 hour 15 minutes each way, but you know what -- I don't mind. I get to live in a beautiful city along the coast in Massachusetts, and commute to a job I love in downtown Boston. 1 hour of that commute is on the commuter train, during

This makes me miss Steve Jobs, a lot. So much of what he says seemed dead on about the struggles Segway faced. For all his faults, I think he had a great sense about what consumers wanted and loved about a product, as well as what would fru

This is one of the best app landing pages I've seen in a long time. Though I have to admit I haven't even watched the video at the top, the rest of the page gets straight to the point clearly explaining and demonstrating the app,

I'm shocked there doesn't seem to be a mention of his complete lack of a natural, engaging personality as being the number one reason why he would never stand a chance as a candidate. Admittedly I haven't watched many intervi

Excellent. I do hope it's better than Hipchat's attempt, which I found to be terrible -- delayed audio and stuttering video.
