Google Lens has had the feature for more than a year now and it's incredibly useful. I wonder how the accuracy of Apple's version will compare.

Have you ever worked on multivariate tests? Testing is how you learn and quantify how much something is disliked, or used, or leads to conversions. This is the perfect fit. I prefer the 1-column layout (user since it was rapgenius.com). If

Oh you just said "crypto," you never mentioned a currency. Do we get to include the overcollateralized stablecoins or are we just cherrypicking volatile ones? Do you have any experience buying or using cryptocurrency in the last 1

The dollar crashed 30% in the 2000s (and the 80s, and the 70s, and probably the '10s). Soon it will be because of trade wars and losing value to the euro and the yuan though. To your point, remember when the crypto market had a net los

Compared to 2009?! You don't trust Coinbase in 2021 any more than you did Cryptsy in 2013? PS if you want to do the whole "volatile prices!" fear mongering you can do WAY better than 50% price drops. You also accidentally cri

Is this app-development specific? In CSS the font-size and leading are easily decoupled.

Thank you, I know it's a dumb question. Wondering about the cost/effectiveness of demolition of the ship vs the daily costs of having the canal blocked. I thought it might be like using explosives to dispose of whale carcasses.

Why wouldn't it be more cost-effective or unreasonable to destroy the ship?

Why is this better than media queries? The user rarely drags the window edge back and forth, and if they do, they do it one time to resize the window.

Then what's the point of the demo? Dragging the edge of the browser window make type scale fluidly? Typically the user is at a fixed viewport size, or they change to one or two other ones when the window is resized.

Viewport-relative widths are a poor practice for accessibility, in general (maybe you don't care for your small personal website). The user can't set their own preferred size, font-size becomes illegible at small sizes, and way to
