As the author of a content management system I made with the idea to democratize internet content creation, I've had a lot of the same thoughts that the author brings up here. I've…

Even worse than cancellation is when there's sloppy writing that is very obviously in place to push the series into another season while a bunch of plot threads go unresolved. It's…

My thoughts exactly. They are using the Google playbook of "don't be evil" until it becomes extremely profitable to be evil.

I gave it an image of my crappy art and asked what steps I could take to make it look better. It gave me specific advice like varying the line widths and how to use this on specifi…

I'm honestly surprised that VR hasn't been a bigger impact on board games. Besides the obvious fact that you can more easily get people together, software is great at handling the …

I got the same "old, weird internet" vibe that you did. Back in the 90's there seemed to be more moonshot ideas like VRML and The Palace Chat - things that were maybe a little sill…

I wonder how many great websites we lost with the death of Flash. Off the top of my head, I remember visiting the website for the movie Donnie Darko back when the film was original…

> If I were to predict, Google would start identifying trends and slowly start ranking reddit higher for user centric queries. In my limited dev experience, that is already happeni…

Great timing! Just today I did a Google search in an attempt to figure out why my skin surrounding some recent scar tissue had a yellow discoloration. Didn't find my answer until t…

This plays some part. Another factor is the old 'it is harder to read code than it is to write it' adage.

Currently working in the world of TypeScript/Node/JavaScript there's so much stuff I miss from .NET. * Awesome standard library - very little need to install packages from randos o…

I saw The Hobbit in a theater playing at 60fps in 3D and several people in the theater laughed at points in the film that were not supposed to be funny just because how odd certain…

I feel like these points land harder when talking about animation rather than live action films. Consider that when Disney made Bambi 2 in the 2000s, they came to the realization t…

> It is a very American thing to get so upset when the country is criticized. I think this is thankfully becoming at least slightly less common, at least among educated Americans. …

I've sometimes wondered why so many restaurants (even some chains) don't have any kind of online presence outside of a crappy HTML 'poster' that tells the world they exist. No deli…

> As TypeScript is a core part of the Deno ecosystem, we are also very interested in pushing for even closer alignment of TypeScript and JavaScript in the future. I've wondered why…

Reading this I'm reminded of knockoutjs, which the author of SolidJS cites as an influence. I remember at one point, years ago, trying to figure out why it was so much faster than …

Agreed. Everyone, regardless of their political leanings, tends to be ignoring the elephant in the room: why is there such an insatiable demand in America for conspiracy theories a…

My arrow and page up/down keys do not work on this website. Very annoying.

Based on what I've heard from interviews from doctors and nurses, these people change their tune incredibly quickly once they have been diagnosed with Covid and start suffering fro…

Lots of sci-fi reference in the comments but the first thing I thought of when reading the article was the movie Pandorum.

Maybe the question everyone should be asking is: why is there such an insatiable desire among a large part of America for white supremacist and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories? Wh…
