That must be what the extension I use has been doing, but what a bizarre way to hide such a useful feature.

The only way I could ever add custom search engines was through a separate extension. I have no idea how you've been doing this such that you think it's always been possible?

Yes, you're not wrong, but also consider that kids generally lack differing perspectives and knowledge of other situations. As an adult you've heard or seen other variations of how kids grew up and can better compare them. It&#x27

Most managers are managers because they like having power and control. I can count the number of managers I have met on less than one hand who you can tell is a manager because they like helping and organizing people.

Literally the first proper anime series (not including movies or like DBZ) that I ever watched. Still fondly remember it and still salty about how the director killed it. It would be the greatest gift of a lifetime if anyone ever either fin

I don't think so. This was almost 15yrs ago before this was common. Also they wouldn't waste time asking if I was still interested after completing a full interview if it was just a ghost job.

Nope! You would think so, but they just replied "okay, good luck". Like I said, just very bizarre.

Agreed. I had a bizarre interview experience with them whereupon finishing the interview, the hiring manager emailed me once a week for about 4 or 5 weeks in a row asking if I was still interested. It was bizarre. How many times do I have t

The best use case is promotion! Welcome to big tech, where all the teams get reshuffled every few months and every microservice exists because some dev needed a promotion. The greater the ratio of microservices to devs, the better your mana

If you care about performance, I don't think any amount or style of mesh networking will outperform traditional backbones.

If food delivery services were presented to end users as some sort of bidding model, sure, but it's not. It's presented as simply as "you order food, food gets delivered to you". There's no ability to see how my ord

No, I'm already paying for a delivery service fee. A tip is an extra thank you. If restaurants charge me a mandatory fee ("tip") on top of my food price, there's no extra tip on top of that.

Sorry, not trying to rain on your parade, but never in my life have I wanted a website to make sounds at me that weren't a video that I chose to click play on.

I think that's a misrepresentation though because A to B is not a subset of B to A. Whereas B to C is a subset of A to B to C.

Not to get into pedantics, but just to offer a helpful explanation, I think it's because you used "should" instead of "would". It's no big deal, but in your sentence, should implies reasonable, while would impl

He's not saying it's wrong, just that it's expected for the white house to be mad for being called out. (Not that it's reasonable, but just expected.)

Amusing that this is only a few spots above the TED video submission entitled "We're creating a dystopia just to make people click on ads".

Doesn't really matter how much your coworkers value you when your employer suddenly decides tomorrow that they've decided to change focus for the 5th time this month and it's your department getting cut this time.

What set of standards could possibly facilitate this?

Oh I fully understand the incentives from the bottom up. I'm just calling a spade a spade, even if we know the why.

I fully believe this to be true as well. Aside from possibly the endless red tape and bureaucratic hoop jumping of making a purchasing decision. "Promotion driven development" is a scourge. Endless waste of time and resources for

I'm not talking about tips. You already get random super fine print 10-20% "service" surcharges on your bill at many restaurants. This is not the tip.

That businesses are allowed to surprise you with unexpected fees is a negative thing. How can you interpret it otherwise?

WSL2 is an absolute pile of manure. The last time I attempted to use it only a year or two ago, it regularly ended up in some bizarre unrecoverable state for which the only recourse was completely uninstalling and reinstalling it. And this

I do hate that style of thumbnail too. But hey, it just tells me not to click on the video. So it serves its purpose for me. But metrics I guess tell the youtubers that that thumbnail brings in lots of traffic. I think especially younger ki

Think of it like a book cover. Regardless of a book's title or summary, an attractive (attracting? attention grabbing?) cover will get more people to click it. Also depending on where the thumbnail is displayed, you may not see the ful

Is that specifically related to the Germany ccTLD or because you live in Germany? What would be the consequences of just... not doing it? Who even knows where a website author lives or publishes from?
