Thanks, sorry for the late response – busy week. Good point, wasn't even aware that the inherited variable view is only shown in projects but not subgroups. On a quick glance I cou…

Do you have an example screenshot somewhere? I'm wondering what exactly this does that GitLab doesn't, because inherited variables are shown within GitLab UI directly – fairly bare…

I'm a Support Engineer at GitLab, and based on my own experience that statement is definitely correct. There's entire classes of problems you simply don't have to deal with at all …

> And no, you can’t read the minds of long dead people either. And yet that is exactly what you are doing throughout multiple comments.

Thank you, that’s another good example, to which I wish I could relate less. ;)

Thanks, that's a great example. I've actually encountered this exact thing at my current employer as well.

> All orgs should consider locking out all employees for at least one uninterrupted week a year. Very easy way to shake out all sorts of problems. Could you give some examples?

I'm afraid that does not solve this particular problem, just happened again on the very first try. I still think this is intentional or at least happily accepted on part of Twitter…

Thanks, if that works that would be amazing. I'm most often getting it inside in-app browsers, e.g. when opening a Twitter link in Tweetbot, Apollo or similar apps. Not sure if the…

https://www.danielhill.com.au/removing-service-workers-from-... Now I'm trying to figure out how to do it on Mobile Safari, where this bug always hits me.

That's exactly what I'm planning to explore as a workaround to remove the blank pages until ABBYY and/or Apple sort this out. :)

I think you might interpret the word more harshly than I intend it to be. Something that worked before Big Sur is not working in Big Sur. It's broken. That's all there is to it for…

This is at least the second time that Apple breaks Preview in this way. I outlined why this bug is something a lot of users could run into, and I even mention that I'm not necessar…

Yes.

Fair enough, though I'd still argue that a public write-up that might warn a few people and save them the trouble is well worth writing on its own. As this blog is just a hobby, my…

In theory that is probably true – in my actual scenario I can't run them through ABBYY again because of the limitations of the bundled version. It only accepts PDFs coming from the…

Could you explain why or how exactly I'm an ass?

> If you're not going to do the work to figure out what the corruption is … I'm sorry, but last time I checked neither Apple nor ABBYY pay my salary. I really don't understand thes…

That's fair, and I honestly didn't enjoy posting the headline here, but as far as I know I have to use the original title? And the original title is from a personal blog where we t…

Well, technically you at least only have a chance of noticing the error after opening a PDF (again). I suppose that's because after saving the old, correct data is still in memory,…

I personally don't use anything else, but when the problem first occured a few years ago, it was not limited to PDFs from ABBYY. (Which is not to say that it's purely Preview.app's…

I honestly don't care who is exactly at fault. I definitely blame Apple for destroying the PDF. There might be plenty of blame left for ABBYY for creating a bad PDF in the first pl…

Read it again. This bug could hit you without ever using ABBYY yourself. Apple broke Preview.
