Yes, everything you say is exactly why government action on this would've been appropriate as suggested by the comment I originally defended. Thousands of people and organizations across aviation benefit in terms of retaining the abili

Yes, but that has nothing to do with drug abuse. That has to do with the fact that it's drugs.

I wasn’t clear at all, but I certainly agree it would be clear life was on earth from such data. I am less clear how much about our society you could meaningfully conclude from it is all, but perhaps it’d be clear from our pollution exactly

Did you read the article and the comment I was replying to? Both basically rendered 40k element HTML <table>s. Difference is, the Google UI lags because it is hampered by browser painting/layout computations taking forever, despi

I'm not sure what you are asking. You can of course build a trivial use-case with a native feature and have it perform as one would expect from a native HTML element. However, it's not like the UI guys in the article didn't d

Well, a tl;dr that says implementing a heavy protocol poorly is a bad idea is once again a non-statement. > It's also of dubious benefit Laughable. Comparing to the silly comparison of "direct SQL queries", both have lots

"Using a protocol you don't understand without a tool that implements it is a bad idea" Listen, I get it, we all want to hate on NIH and cutting-edge stuff, but what you've said is not an objection. GraphQL is a complica

It's unironically true that GraphQL in combination with database introspection & query tools like Hasura is a far superior pattern to REST-based CRUD. Additionally, as a UI developer, I understand you are trying to make it seem lik

Ok, I understand. That is a regression. The UI piece as a whole is still superior in my opinion, wrt UX at least, even if this is a regression in functionality

How are secret features better than the now-discoverable option of simply shutting it off and turning it back on? It's an all-time computing classic and now it's using the UI classic toggle language. This seems superb to me.

Make a lot of dollars and pay a handsome salary conditional entirely on the website fulfilling an availability SLA, and then some company will ensure this vapid task for you manually. There is certainly no way to automate this today.

Interesting, I see what you are saying. Well, I guess aviation fuel byproducts aren't great to have sprayed on your home every day either way :)

What a useless comment. “Shite bad but I won’t say a thing about what or how” And then you proceed to imply developers who have UIs susceptible to XSS are to blame, even though this is a known attack vector where browsers parse adversarial

Thanks for the comment. Thinking out loud, for prions is not the requirement that they "[act] as a catalyst, lowering the potential energy barrier ... to the point where e.g thermal fluctuations allow it to cross that barrier" als

Yes, clearly ice <-> water is a state change and not chemical, but my point is mostly that prions / protein folding is neither a state-change nor a chemical change, so I don't see how it's relevant to the posited scenar
