This is great! I'm a little bit confused by the "You Ship, We Ship". It seems presented like a named concept of sorts, but the description when following the link is > At Hack Club we're reimagining a new type of publ

I do something similar, except at one shop where the WTFs outnumbered everything sane by a wide margin.

When I don't intend to do any actual work, I go to the office. Socialising is nice, and in part important. Some discussions are only had in that setting. When I want to do actual work, I stay at home. If I couldn't decide how to b

It's always something else doing something wrong. Everything has to conform to Apples design guidelines. Heaven forbid the OS could let you chose what you want to happen... like launching Spotify instead, or simply nothing at all... It

It's a special kind of stubbornness that makes it so that a file manager doesn't have support for cut and paste, in order to move files. The answer to most "it's a bit dumb that MacOS doesn't let you / forces

Windows has a mess of legacy UI that are never fully replaced. They could have gone down the path of translating the windows UI APIs, though I think it's better that they left it as is. The bigger issue however, is that there are diffe

MacOS has bugs and inconsistencies everywhere. Some are bugs, some are inconsistent UX, only a few of them are "well... I just don't like it". An example: you cannot right click app-icons in the Docker in the mission control

I'd also include security concerns. Not as scary as anti-cheat rootkits from TenCent owned companies that millions of people willingly installed. Concerning nonetheless.

Thanks. I appreciate the reply. In my experience, incompetence has been the underlying cause for a lot that seems like malice or something more deliberate. Especially when combined with social aspects like not wanting to lose face, or havin

What is "this"? - If "sign with SSH instead of GPG", the answer is convenience. - If "sign commits", the answer is authentication of the user of the commit. Encryption part isn't relevant as you get that a

All the things you describe, are all reasonable constraints and goals. However, the issue is in chasing sub millisecond standard deviations. Which is amusingly the point at which you might as well buy a midi keyboard.

A bit late reply here, so I don't know if you'll see it. But, how sure are you that it was done intentionally? Incompetence is pretty is to argue, but intentionally making something bad?

Then, there are a lot of programmers who are completely unaware of these tradeoffs, and simply follow some trend or methodology without any thought of their own. 20 lines of code split over 4 microservices? Sure, why not? "It's su

True. I think both are arguing the same. Just different takes on how silly it is. Asking one single, basic question, arguably uninteresting, but just asked early on, grants more access "permissions" than the total of thousands of

You.. still don't address the topic. Which leaves me to conclude you are not actually interesting in discussing the same thing. My point is that I do not like when literary devices are used the way PBS uses it. Your counter-points do n

You seem very hung up on my incorrect assumption as to what extent the video was about the anthropic principle or not. I have not watched it, nor do I intend to, and I am happy with being wrong about it. That said, it also isn't releva

by okamiueru 3y ago
Sounds like we agree then. The difference in opinion is that I don't consider literary devices to validate incorrect or misleading statements. Which is why I dislike PBS. You do, and that's fine. To each their own.

by okamiueru 3y ago
Are you sure you got the argument I'm presenting? You did quickly make an edit to avoid a rather rude remark. My point is that their use of literary devices, as you put it, are often misleading if not flat out wrong. The listener needs

I'm not convinced. When he talks about things I understand, he does so in a way that I still find frustratingly convoluted. In these cases, it's not for a lack of education. It probably just means that this style of presenting top

I strongly dislike PBS Space Time, but I find it hard to explain why. I might also be just too dumb to get it. It's just the feeling of the goal not being the "listener gaining understanding", but rather "expressing how

MacOS and Windows are, in my honest opinion, significantly less consistent experiences than Gnome. The list I have on MacOS UX annoyances, design inconsistencies and implementation bugs is in the hundreds.

The expression "you can only lead a horse to water" doesn't really cut it. The horse is neck deep. We've been spoon feeding it. Tried IV hydration. Not even a bucket of water with apples made a difference. A sealion does
