I understand that is what you want, but you cannot reserve yourself from being interpreted when posting on a public forum. The language you chose to use and the details you chose to focus on is what triggered the response. If your point was

sneak wanted OP to be less openly queer in their personal blog for their own comfort, due to their own inability to imagine that the subculture OP is part of is more than their own narrow definition of it. I guess the disrespect is clearer

Do these metrics count "no framework" as an option? With hooks, context and separation of concerns, most apps can live very well without any "state management framework" at all.

Because complex applications are now delivered as web apps instead of as desktop applications, and these require complex tooling to maintain. Then everyone wanted to use the same tools in other areas (I guess), where it is probably not nece

I probably wouldn't, since it is very use case specific what concerns are relevant. So more a suggestion to get an overview of the security requirements and privacy requirements one needs to deal with at some point and sketch some poss

Yet, plenty of tools of this caliber have been made illegal (in some parts of the world).

I can guess the modern slaves producing our cheap clothes would have an opinion on that.

Should maybe add security and privacy to that list, in this day and age. Not that it all needs to be implemented right away (depending on jurisdiction you're operating under) but having a plan for how to solve security and privacy cons

I did this on my Android as well, intentionally. My Galaxy S20 defaults to an animation speed that is just so horribly slow, everything feels sluggish. It also uses more battery. I, too, was a bit confused at the frozen arrow in the beginni

My experience with Postgres FTS (did a comparison with Elastic a couple years back), is that filtering works fine and is speedy enough, but ranking crumbles when the resulting set is large. If you have a large-ish data set with lots of simi

Good for the 24% of users, then. It doesn't change the fact that tracking your detailed location and who you are around in combination can be used to determine your affiliations or sexual orientation. If you, with your secure iPhone, a

Android and iOS have almost equal market share in Norway. Worldwide Android is a lot bigger (~70%). This affects most people, just not in the US.

I've been thinking about this too. I think a subscription service could work, but have no idea how many would pay to escape Goodreads, or how much.

by soft_dev_person 6y ago
I have been considering making one. Goodreads is so awful, and the alternatives I have found are all quite quirky or broken in one way or another. But having a database of "all books" is not necessarily trivial. Even though OpenLi

I think it makes everything taste the same in an intense but uninteresting way, to be honest. It gives it the bad Chinese restaurant quality. Quantity matters, obviously.

I interpreted the change as if it would always show the quit warning regardless of any settings, since the warning popup is not exactly a new feature. Some more context helped clarify.

Thanks for the downvote, whomever. I always consider switching to Firefox, as I think Chrome needs competition, but Firefox has just never been up to par in usability (especially developer usability) whenever I've tried to switch. Thin

So 13 percent of their investment targets had at least one female founder which corresponds with the industry as a whole quite closely (15.5 percent). They don't seem to be contributing either way, just following the status quo. Primar

No, you are not the only one. I cringe every time I read pieces about this. Calling out "fake news" is just the newest variant of placing blame on everyone/thing but ourselves.
