Some users switch apps by dragging windows around the screen, like a messy stack. A friend of mine didn't even know about Cmd+Tab to cycle through open apps. Users are weird.

Ageism isn't cool, dude.

Believe it or not, it's pretty hard to conduct a large-scale study in the middle of the largest pandemic in modern history.

Yep.

I have. It was a few hundred bucks. There was a tax form, but I don't recall specifically what it was.

I expect more of companies and people than their minimum legal obligations.

Gotcha, no worries.

That's a false dichotomy.

I can't edit my post anymore, but I should apologize for implying that gnicholas made that argument. As others have pointed out, they were just making a point above effective rates…

I've seen this point before, but it's not an argument for keeping rates low. "If we raise rates, the rich will just find ways to avoid them!" People find new ways to try to murder …

Replying to self: I meant “unconditionally” as in without consideration of other factors — not meaning to imply that conditions should be attached to the money.

Because you’re sinking a huge amount of money into someone’s passion project, for which you may or may not have received equity before being broken up with. Being able to afford so…

Facebook itself won't be meaningfully "deleted" for at least five years. It simply has too much money: even if its main product went kaput tomorrow (which it won't), it would find …

They still have to do that to get the goods to the store. Delivering to fewer locations in bulk may be cheaper, though.

People, I think we’re missing some of the other buried gold here. Some highlights: We do a daily standup where we don't discuss why something is late. Instead we each spend 10 seco…

Fair enough. I think we’re pretty close together on that.

I’m disagreeing with that nuance. I’m saying that blind people should be able to enjoy the same things that sighted people can, rather than developers deciding for them whether or …

People with disabilities don’t need random developers determining a priori whether or not they’ll be able to use the same software as everyone else. People with disabilities aren’t…

It being fundamentally incorrect and you not liking it are two very different things.

Why is this person downvoted? That is a true, relevant, and dispassionate statement.

Why must the CEO of Google be the most highly-paid position for Google to run well? The point is that the pay for participating in self-interested capitalist endeavors leads to out…

Or requirements to not keep data unless for a legitimate business purpose.

Then don't. GP said "seriously consider moving", not "move". Presumably the developer would do it if they value potential impact over the risk.
