No they aren't. It's just their Dev Mode feature which really hasn't been all that useful in my experience. For those who don't pay for Dev Mode, they'll revert to something like t…

I agree that the vast majority are not walkable but it doesn't need to be that way. I live near an extremely walkable suburb. Storefronts at the sidewalk instead of on the other en…

Cars are quickly becoming luxury goods again. Cars sold today are much more difficult to repair on your own than they were 20 years ago. Not to mention the cost of parts.

Suburbs can be walkable. As can rural towns. For those who live away from any civilization, they've made their choice about transportation.

Who said anything about taking away cars? However it shouldn't be necessary for me to walk in a ditch along a high speed road with no sidewalk just to get to the grocery that is le…

Totally agree. There are still small thriving communities on BBSes for goodness sake.

Elk is amazing. Even running it as my primary client on mobile. Really shows how good PWAs can be. One of my favorite features is the built-in code highlighting.

NixOS is Linux

Many of Ive's initial designs of products were fantastic and great examples of Dieter Ram's principles of design. Unfortunately I think he drank a bit too much of his own kool-aid …

>Do you have occasion to use alcoholic beverages such as liquor, wine or beer, or are you a total abstainer? https://news.gallup.com/poll/395867/say-alcohol-adversely-af...

Meta (among others) want to change that. https://engineering.fb.com/2022/07/25/production-engineering...

Sounds like you proposing smearing and motion blur. Those techniques have actually been around for a long time in traditional, handrawn animation. https://www.traditionalanimation.…

Alpine JS is a great modern (spiritual) replacement for jQuery. It provides a nice reactive, declarative API to manipulate the DOM, without going all-in on a heavy JS framework. ht…

If your accident involves more than one vehicle, the other driver shouldn't need to live with your death on their conscience (as it would for most people, regardless of whether or …

A civil war doesn't need to be between two regions (like in the American Civil war). I think most people (including myself) envision a "Handmaid's Tale" style coup from by an extre…

What happens when you don't attempt to correct for bias in your AIs inputs: https://www.theverge.com/2016/3/24/11297050/tay-microsoft-ch... People like to think that ML/AI can only…

Given how horrible DALL-E 2 is at rendering text provided by the prompt, I doubt it is as simple as what is being suggested. Regardless, OpenAI has acknowledged the bias found in p…

Yeah, it seems that a lot of folks haven't seen a new playground in the last 25 years.

Yeah, as a parent of a young child, all those things are still extremely common (at least at all the playgrounds I've see constructed in the past 5 years). Many even have 10ft+ rop…

I seriously doubt you have the resources available to effectively evaluate all the claims for yourself. No one is an expert in all topics. We are literally not qualified to evaluat…

Higher average temperatures (climate) lead to more extreme temperature events (weather). How do people still not understand this?

Jet streams, elevation, vegetation, and topography are other large factors. Just take a look at the climates of American and European cities at similar latitudes.

I'm surprised so many people are allowed to use video conferencing platforms that aren't Zoom/Slack/Teams.

I'm really tired of needing to wade through these sort of comments. This is not a unique criticism. If you don't don't get it, either try it out or move on. These comments add no v…
