Yeah I really hope this is exclusive to personal throwaway projects. Otherwise such thinking can land you and your potential users/clients in very hot water. A belief like avoiding SQL because is too complicated indicates to me you

These are regionally restricted on top of users being able to opt out of such service at both the visa/mastercard level and at their local banks. This means you cannot rely on the service entirely and have to create alternative flows e

Outside of buying accounts, some people literally just want control. For the same reason that people will spend countless hours moderating large subs for free. They want to push certain narratives on subs, so you'll see large accounts

All of the Google sections seem to be terrible for their use case. Images are lacking filters and are filled with Pinterest results which send people into a cycle when trying to get to the actual image to save. News will sometimes show old

We're going to see a lot more clones in the coming weeks/months, which arguably also prevents most of them from doing their intended job as a replacement. Eventually, one will form when the dust settles. It's a slow process,

The coordination required for such would be quite intense. Also fragile, as the third party apps would quickly abandon any roadmap agreed upon if Reddit changed its mind. Maybe it can happen now among the apps that have put their foot dow

I would say they are definitely in the same range that any difference is negligible. Working in either shatters the soul in record breaking speed. The terrible things you have to witness. Humanity at its rawest and at times lowest. Both gro

Yes they did. Because they do not care about a good browser engine product. They care about selling services on top of that. So whether it's Chromium or something else entirely, they don't care. They went with what had the most ex

Your theory hinges on the idea that by remaining on the platform, they will not dive into these darker thoughts. Which is quite absurd, don't you think? This idea that one banning is going to be the catalyst, rather than they already f

Yes, it's not just a headset/screen. In their words, a spatial computer. This coming with a new OS also signifies how they really want people to view it as a standalone product rather than a Valve Index which requires a PC to use.

As usual, the devil is in the details. We can see this with voice to text, in which despite in theory being so much faster than typing things out, tends to not be due to these details (processing lag, clunkiness of handling different forms

No real surprises here; once you remove the source, the moths stop flying towards it. I reckon for most; their hate is based on emotional manipulation over an internal drive. This is what separates their "leaders" who are doing it

That would be my general theory as well, you're far more likely to meet someone who is left leaning who admits to having posted on 4chan (or still does) than you are otherwise. Maybe it has to do with perceived biases, in that a right
