Making recordings of meetings that are setting out to make decisions or even just discuss things in deep detail means people who weren't able to attend, or are just interested in t…

> I personally like that Apple attempts to make websites feel more like applications by making the browser disappear. Now if they could provide a stable platform like they do for t…

It's actually become an interview question for me of "is there a bonus scheme" where I'm hoping the answer is actually no. I've yet to work in a company that has a structured bonus…

It feels like one of those things where the context of the meeting/call should be taken in: was the scheduled time of this call for an hour and you've left 10 minutes in, maybe a c…

Epic put the prices at the same level that they already sell V-bucks for via the Epic game store. I don't buy the argument that they would jack those prices back up to the other le…

And to the average person who probably would just use the native app store, nothing would change. But people who are more comfortable with less polished apps that do utilities that…

> I rather give 30% of the money Epic takes for basically selling digital nothing to millions of teens to Apple. At least Apple is doing something with that money, maintaining the …

Or sort by both artist, and original release date. But they also have a pretty good API with generous limits. Really need to find the effort to restart work on my "spotify shuffle/…

Yeah I definitely sit strongly in the former camp (that is, navigation should be in the same tab for anything that is your content). When linking externally or to something that is…

> Complexity. This is the enemy, the second enemy is bad attempts to reduce complexity which often end up adding more complexity than they take away, just harder to find. This is t…

I get your sentiment but your reply implies online gaming really only came along after Skyrim. Skyrim came out in 2011, the online first/focus of at least AAA games was prevalent w…

What if your chatting was also at a lower volume for other groups so if one group organically disbands, can pre-hear what some groups are talking about to join in. Feels like a pre…

Union busting is the norm sadly in the USA. Never forget the organisations that actually led to the workers of the world achieving a better standard of living* *until mass consumer…

But it's the difference between building the smallest wall to completion first versus going the whole way around the outside layer by layer. Showing one thing that is complete is b…

And look at the companies that publicly advocate for things such as battery storage, typically they have vested interests in things such as lithium. Nuclear gets thrown about becau…

Imagine what possibilities there would be if humanity finds a way to power all its current and future needs that produces no harmful side effects rather than trying to equate scien…

> Renewables will not get us there in time, even if they might be viable at some point. Construction of new nuclear plants takes on average 7.5 years, and are extremely prone to co…

Nuclear gets pointed to because the mining companies still have a large role to play in digging material out of the ground for nuclear energy. Lobbyists gon' lobby. As an asset, mu…

> Too much of the "new" stuff is not just a good natural evolution of people solving problems I guess it depends on what you're lumping in with "new stuff". I've experience the opp…

Smells of bad UX/design process - some senior "wants" this particular solution, despite their users showing direct feedback that it doesn't work for their needs.

I'd be curious to see the download numbers of Atom since VS Code's meteoric rise a few years ago. As an ex-atom user, I was initially hesitant to move over as I found VSCode "awkwa…

This falls back to the classic thing - if your market is commoditised, then your product needs to be an experience to drive your revenue. And in all likely-hood, dog walking is not…

Great work from the React team on this release - it's exciting to see some big enabling features like suspense and lazy being baked into the library (rather than falling back on so…
