I've never really been comfortable with the idea, as I was raised on the idea that separation of concerns is good thing. I think one of the main appealing aspects is the idea of never having a styling conflict with other components eve

I don't know much about elixir but I'm interested. Are there disadvantages to this process?

Looks like an error (typo) with Varnish .. it's the same on multiple sites. Maybe a good way to work out which versions are being used.

I think it's fair. I can understand your point, but I think the response of writing a blog post is an example of continued transactionality. I'm not trying to be mean, I'm aiming to be honest.

The author is treating friendship as a transactional exchange. You obtain friends. If you're well connected, you obtain many .. .. however, it's difficult to keep hold of them. --- The issue is friendship and human relations—while

It sounds like the author's solution is to take the web metaphor and create a personal microcosm of that. I don't think this is the solution. I'm a bit disappointed that the essay doesn't take the approach of identifying

I came here to say a similar thing to your last point. The author is explaining the drawbacks of UUID as a user experience problem. UUIDs are built for machines. The solution to providing an identifier for humans doesn't need to involv

The central premise of the argument is false. People involved in the insurrection, weren't going against universally agreed moral standards — i.e. the need for democracy. While I don't agree with their motivation or interpretation

Fair enough, but this doesn't have much to do with the article. I don't understand why it's the top comment.

I think the problem here is often down to non-technical users defining the solution, rather than the problem (or aim).

I believe it's lack of regulation that is actually at fault here.

If you were going through a tough relationship patch, would you choose to sit in a phone booth to spend 15 mins watching wellness videos?

Can you imagine how this would work in reality. Worker 1: "Where's Jerry?" Worker 2: "Oh, he's in the booth again .." Worker 1: "What a loser .."

Then why not introduce a wellness room that has regular dimensions? Somewhere with comfortable seating and the ability to move around in?

This is so grim. A repurposed phone booth. Reprogramming via 'mental health relaxation videos.

This looks like something I'd have been interested in. How long has it been running? If it's new, perhaps the exam board are a bit behind the times.

There's no good reason for something being difficult to understand. Especially a product that's been designed to be general purpose. You give good reasons for why a certain situation exists in scientific communities, but I see no

Perhaps there is a perverse incentive to not worry about simplifying now, but I think complexity will eventually piss people off enough to either leave the community or develop an alternative. Atlassian's Jira is a good day example of
