My experience with Tailwind detractors has been of people starting with their opinion that Tailwind is bad and then working backwards to come up with almost entirely arbitrary and contrived reasons to justify that conclusion. I truly can&#x

No need for a framework or anything of the sort as far as I see it. Establish your scale in some manner which can be converted to a distance relative to the top of the page and position the elements absolutely to their proportional position

This is anecdotal but the same exact thing (albeit with an Apple Watch vs. Android) happened to me a few days ago- I had forgotten to turn on the watch's water mode before going in the water. After about like 5 minutes in the pool it s

This isn't a ding against the product or idea and is likely something you're looking to improve in the long term, but the graphics on the marketing site just feel like visual sugar and don't convey any information. This may b

Besides the "what about this other accident with 500 victims!!!", "these people are dumb", and the "look how they ignored safety!" comments, I can't help but be amazed at how events like this make people c

The size is irrelevant, the energy released is significant either way and definitely beyond the thresholds of hydrophones. During the USCG press conference today it was stated that the implosion made a significant soundwave as a result of t

Obviously unfortunate for the passengers, but definitely the preferable outcome instead of being stuck on the bottom or the surface until air ran out. The implosion would have essentially vaporized them within milliseconds, there was no cha

A few other notes from the USCG statement: - No noises were heard during rescue operation (the implosion likely happened around the time the communication was lost, as opposed to in the days following) - The "banging" noises discu

I mean I think the bigger take away is to not cut corners when operating with such a small margin of error as DSVs. Safe deep-sea exploration is possible, and has been for a long time, in manners such as the DSV Alvin, DSV Limiting Factor,

The ascent and descent to Titanic is about 2 hours one-way. The exact time they say they lost contact was after around 1 hour and 45 minutes. It was likely at or close to at the depth of Titanic.

Except they haven't at all, lol By "the “conspiracy theorists” keep turning out to be right" do you mean like how Trump won the election in 2020, Biden is an actor, Obama has been hung for treason, people around the globe are

I remember learning a lot of the reasoning behind why I thought it was most likely a lab leak from a video I got as a top recommendation on youtube from a rather large channel that had near or over a million views at the time, so anecdotall

This. I have a few family members very deep in the weeds (QAnon, Cabal, One World Order type of crap) and they love to play this narrative. In reality it seemed like it was rather obvious to anybody who looked at the facts that this pandemi

The number is clearly an exaggeration, and it's a bit embarrassing that I have to point that out. One of the few benefits of crypto is that it's difficult to trace (although certainly not impossible except for unique cases like XM

While I actually found your comment pretty funny, and do certainly find it tiring how people pretend as if some cookie cutter SaaS start up will change the world (personally made me think of the very first episode of Silicon Valley on HBO),

See above for the typical coiner response to anybody who brings up counterpoints. I mention that people might not like how crypto is posited as a miracle-drug to all world issues- low effort. You add a comment which doesn't address my

Thanks for pointing that out. Clearly, the only people who hold anti-crypto views are just jealous and spiteful people. There totally doesn't exist any group of people who are just sick and tired of people propping up an almost totally

Great point- these are reasons why we have the regulation we have today in our current banking system, and why any financial system that doesn't have any ability to be regulated (i.e. crypto) is massively problematic and ends up with 9

Couldn't agree more- the technology just doesn't exist to deliver something of this sort in a way that doesn't come across as dystopian, which is unfortunate. They'll definitely iterate to bring it to a more seamless sol

A little bit dystopian looking, but I think the potential is massive here. Just imagining the potential for the 3d photos/videos to basically put you back into places and times and truly experience either places or people who no longer

And yet you don't directly provide any evidence to the contrary, highlighting that the person who is providing nothing is actually you and your comment of unsupported contradictions. Does your utility company take crypto? Mine certainl

Every time a crypto article is posted there are one of two people in the comments; those acknowledging yet another failure in a continuous display of cryptocurrency's blatant inability to be a valid currency, and those who mindlessly s

Couldn't agree with this more. It's always nice to think that some super clean UI beats making quick CSS adjustments alongside HMR or a quick build time but in my experience it probably never does. If I wanted to test different fo

Seeing stuff like this is always a bit bitter-sweet. Ignoring the fact that obviously this is a far way from a "cure" in adults, as this is an early stage study, I always feel like seeing how far and how fast we're progressin

Yikes, yeah- on second thought it does seem sarcastic. It's just so difficult to tell with Tesla because it certainly does have a certain portion of the population that would have posted the original comment entirely unironically.
