You are correct, there are ways to do so. There are also soft-locks which are states which are just incredibly hard to get out of (heat death of the universe type scenarios some ti…

Further: e: dialectal version of "det", i.e. "it" öa, åa: adding an a on the end of a noun is a dialectal way of expressing "the 'ö'" and "the 'å'", respectively.

Isn't the point that companies should be judged by the cost of their actions, and not the details of their implementations?

I think developer speed is more important than optimising clock cycles unnecessarily. Generally writing to dom is much much slower than evaluting a few thousand expressions. For th…

My reaction as well. I remember leaving for Google as a huge step in my childhood.

I still recommend Name of the Wind. It's frustrating, but I would rather have loved and lost, than not loved at all.

Killing flash was not about UX. The issues with it were technical. Flash was not the UX for systems, but for fun little games and a means to tell a story in a way which wasn't avai…

DICOM is also the format used at hospitals for medical images. At least in radiotherapy.

I read it as: Svelte is faster in theory, but since people write bad Svelte code, it is slower than the React code the same developers would write. My interpretation is that this c…

I agree, and the competition is at this point more between VS and other full-featured IDEs like JetBrains Rider, which is my tool of choice for .Net-development. But, what I didn't…

When I studied philosophy, we applied scientific methodology to understand complex topics, categorising them, and evaluating them against each other. The theories of moral philosop…

I think you're equating the pro-mask side with some pro-science side. None of which has to do with the validity of science, or what truth is. You're talking about politics.

What alternative methods do you suggest for the "domains it doesn't fit"?

When you can't measure what's important, what you can measure becomes important.

For me the biggest selling point is that the content I like is on YouTube. Everything else I can do without. I consume it through their RSS, which is nice, I suppose.

I'm guessing here, but perhaps that is since apple revenue isn't ad-driven in the same sense Facebook is?

Hate speech is when you promote violence or persecution in some other way against any of the groups you mentioned. I am not sure what point A has to do with what hate speech is.

That is not what I am discussing. I am making a statement about how to design a stable society with humane values. From the perspective of the society. Instead you went to make jud…

I believe you are conflating the definition of minority in this context. It means a disenfranchised portion of the population.

Are you suggesting it is not in a society's interest to limit hate speech against minorities? Because that is what is being discussed.

I think you vastly oversimplify how easy this fix is likely to be. For all we know this may mean touching code in multiple repos, each with hard-coded lists of which cards are supp…

If the technology is too hard to understand for the masses it's unlikely to provide much resistance to desinformation campaigns.

You're still off quite a ways in your analogy. I get paid to develop software that someone else owns and brands and makes all decisions for. For nothing more than money. It's nothi…

No, it might indicate a lack of demand for that particular qualification.

React has no invented language. You’re thinking about jsx which isn’t needed. It is recommended, however.
