The idea that a company of any significant size can survive with a single manager, and that that manager might benefit from being having a small stature is laughable

I get the impression that threads (like browser tabs) are a very individual thing. Some people want total threading, others want a flat flow. Slack seem to be treading a very careful line between the two extremes

Environments where the decision has been made that error-prone, misleading and ambiguous statements should not be allowed typically are those where warning are treated as errors. A new type of misleading and error-prone statement has been f

Unfortunately 'resource intensive' != 'slower'. There are many tricks played by modern browsers to speed up page speeds. Many of them increase resource usage in the process.

Just as if you were to buy a child’s toy that has a secret embedded camera that streams to some foreign server. It may be the manufacturers fault, but the person who sold it to you (the provider) is liable. Should be the same here

tl;dr, It was a light-hearted ironic idea, not some statement on the impending downfall of human civilization "that the whole earth somehow is a balanced system, were it not for greedy humans" This was in no way implied by what I

What I meant was that this hypothetical civilisation supposedly flourished in a particular environment. If their actions altered that environment radically enough to wipe them out, AND wipe out all traces of their existence, then that would
