I like that you're using CSS variables to achieve this. I had to look up support for this , and it seems fairly decent. https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-variables

Because it's a cozy job in the US? Software Engineers face horrible working conditions in a lot of parts of Asia, far worse than your line cook example.

> And protestors obviously looking to fight police. They swarmed the other officers partner who was being beaten on the ground and he was next. While true, protestors can't just resort to drawing their guns and firing warning shots.

I've been fairly critical of protestors before, but in this instance, you can see the police going in for a fight, already heavily outnumbered. I'm not sure what they expected to happen, but the officer drew his gun almost instan

I think you might be wrong in your understanding. Webpack is a bundler, which Gatsby uses. You can use Gatsby as a replacement for Jekyll or Ghost, they do the same thing, i.e. output static HTML. However Gatsby uses React and GraphQL to ac

In a presentation, sure, you can catch the attention of the audience. But in online articles, I would refrain from using it.

What stands out to me (at my current workplace), is that the guys with a CS degree, tend to spend much longer on building features than the guys without a degree. Mostly because they have really intense arguments about best practices, and h

There's quite a few crowd funding campaigns by protestors that have raised millions of dollars. They were able to buy full page ads in major international newspapers.

It doesn't bother me as much on social media, as it does on tech articles where other developers are the primary target audience. When I'm at work, I really don't need to see a reaction GIF every 5 paragraphs. Not only does i

Thanks, my weight is the aftermath of the unhealthy food, and I do consider it my biggest problem. I constantly feel embarrassed when doing things, I feel shy when meeting new people, constantly wondering whether they're judging me on

I've been really struggling with my weight for the past few years. It has gotten to a point where it's affecting my social life and my mental health. I've always been fairly introverted and shy, but nowadays I find myself sit

Maybe the software is different per country/region, because here it takes maybe ~5 clicks to buy something. And you can easily add multiple items before paying.

That's very true, especially for introverted people like me, who don't like the attention when struggling with a language. It also helps that the devices are pretty responsive, and allow you to order everything. The downside is th

One of our frustrations with Jira is that estimates are only editable in your backlog or active sprint. We often open stories in different tabs, and constantly have to switch back to the backlog in order to add/update the estimate. I c

Correct, and if you understand that, that's fine. I'm also waiting for the next thing after smartphones, but until then, I'm not really expecting anything other that incremental updates.

I would argue against this, especially if you're in specific subreddits, it's usually heavily biased. Even if you're reading articles from /r/worldnews or /r/news, there's usually a general sentiment,

Besides just incremental changes, what could people possibly expect from the next version of a smartphone, especially with the technology that we currently have? I get that 5-10 years ago it was a totally different field, when technology wa

Sadly this will be too little too late. If this was done in May/June, it would've ended the protests/unrest. It has turned into so much more than just the extradition bill, extreme police violence being one of the big things.

That’s not entirely true. Their response came after a lot of outrage and fear by the general population. This outrage came after some top pro-Beijing politicians said that declaring an emergency situation is still on the table, by doing so,

And to be clear, I don't support a government restricting and putting limitations on people. But I'm also not a big fan of pushing your Western views on other countries if you've never visited them.
