That is oddly specific hmmmm :P I'm convinced that the moment we're discovered we'll be either exterminated or "jailed" and kept around for scientific or entertainment purposes - at least until we've been digit

Haven't really persued a solution to these gpu/heat/noise issues yet. Though, a few months ago I had contacted Apple about a different matter and mentioned these problems to the agent who then told me that was the first time

It's not uncommon to see donations of 5k USD and up in a single transaction. And oftentimes all this person gets in return - that is, if the camgirl.. apologies, streamer notices the sum come in at all - is a "you're so sweet

On a fundamental level, though, the actual datapoints that you gather through a form have nothing to do with UI or arguably even UX design. That notwithstanding I fully agree with you on all points! GDPR is also very strict on what you can

Good find, thanks for sharing the link. I couldn't really put into words why this column style formatting bothers me so much for this type of data, but thanks to one of the comments there I think I do now: this information belongs toge

Very good collection of very small but high-leverage changes that make an interface just more enjoyable. I only think the reasoning you provide in the "require fewer [form] fields" chapter is really out of place. For example, whet

The syntax plugins for Prisma ORM auto-format their schema files in a similar way [1]. It bothers me so much that I can't bring myself to use their solution - which I realise is incredibly petty :) [1] https://github.com&#x2

I very clearly recall Coinbase structurally having these outages back in 2017/2018 as well. Always when big price movements are about to happen, but often before the volume spike. Nothing but funny coincidences I'm sure.

Back then when, lacking formal education in this field, I was unable to get anything better than unpaid traineeships. Since I needed income those were no viable option, plus I was demonstratively far beyond that skill level and felt I was b

Oh yes, it's a bit like a dance sometimes. While fun, it does feel inefficient and inconvenient

Oh yes plenty of rudeness to go around here. And I get what you mean, there's a perfect example in one of the other comments[1] of what can happen when the true intent is unclear. Although not always easy, not letting yourself feel off

Yes, it was rather late when I wrote that comment, but that's essentially what I was trying to say. Of course these people did this to themselves, but perhaps they shouldn't have been able to pile on this much risk, or even have h

This isn't a pissing contest, it's simply the social standard here which sometimes accidentally leaks out to people who do not appreciate it, or wrongly interpret it as rudeness. For us as practitioners of this behaviour, intended

Floor-level employees voicing discontent in only a few words to a director who just happened to walk past their station, is still infinitely more information than when they had kept their mouths shut and eyes down. It's then up to that

That is beautiful haha They had your best interests at heart even if it might not have come across that way. I'm glad you figured that out back then and the relation didn't turn sour! I personally haven't met many Russians, b

It depends on the subject, how the CEO is known to react (perhaps the CEO is not from here), a trainee might hold back a little bit more, and more such factors do of course play a role. Our organisational structures are generally just as fl

There wasn't exactly a lot of news that went around back then I imagine.

Dutch directness. We'll tell you that new suit you just purchased and are extremely excited about makes you look like a clown. We'll tell a higher-up why his new plan is stupid and that we're not very excited to waste our tim

Unfair, no doubt. But people who have lost everything in one go? That can only be the result of either grave incompetence/inexperience, or behavioural problems of the kind that don't go so well with trading. Whatever it was that m

The increasing amount of unexplainable hangs and crashes has since offset any of those improvements many times over.

First time I've heard of Fly, went to check out their docs and found this awesome little mention: > We use Lets Encrypt to issue certificates, and donate half of our SSL fees to them at the end of each calendar year.

1. Strong but unsubstantiated implication of causal relation. Both in the title as in the article itself. (FYI Other cryptocurrencies also entered a downtred at roughly the same time.) 2. Pure hinting, guessing, and speculation throughout:

Yes those are the only explanations I came up with as well, but none of that applies. I have kept a log of all IPs I regularly connected from, and only a single one of those originated in another country - another European one. Never lost a

Yeah this is awesome community work, and I'm honestly thankful for MS having left these works alone. An official solution would be nice though. These open source projects are popular enough to warrant one I'd say!
