Damn...what is this, r/seattle?

Don't forget the fact that despite it's just a cheeseburger, it's named "The Vonderbilt Wonder", "Halfsie Pattsies", or "Edmonton the Second". Ideally on a menu so scant on details it's hard to tell the french fries from the extra avocado.

Can confirm. Had an oven that could 'do' convection. Didn't seem to make a difference.

Then I got an actual air fryer. Made a massive difference.

Want that cool image as a background? Whoops.

Want to use that image with that nifty ML tool you downloaded? Uh oh.

That random web service at least five years old with an upload field for an image? Roll the dice; win on snake eyes.

Want to use that picture as an avatar in a forum that isn't that popular? Hmmm.

How about that WordPress blog of yours? Hopefully on 5.8 or better; otherwise unsupported natively.

Would you like thumbnails on these downloads in your favorite Linix distro? Uh, maybe; Ubuntu didn't get it until 22.10.

How about Windows? Well, 11 is fine, but 10 needs an extension.

None of this can't be overcome with some effort, but it's kind of painful right now.

Sure, and it has nothing to do with the big ass vehicles being churned out due to loopholes in US law.

Unspoken here is the third option: navigate a series of untextured raised rectangular platforms littered with smaller rectangles that will fire you automatically if you touch them, designed by an 8 year old that got bored halfway through the engineering phase and wandered off to play Breakin Story 2.

The good news is that, for only 399 robux a month, you can get VIP membership, which includes a coil that allows you to immediately jump over the entire platform and land into a dated pile of two dimensional meme sprites they meant to clean up.

Windows 11 is trash. Microsoft kept boasting it was "faster" than 10, but it is (unsurprisingly?) heavy in some weird areas, including a less snappy start menu, more telemetry, invasive integration with their software, you name it. Tried one machine in my collection to try it via an upgrade (a Microsoft Surface Pro 6), and the performance was so bad I ended up going back to Windows 10. Multi-second lag just to get to the program shortcuts is a really bad sign.

Ah, yes, what a nice way to be sliced into a thousand pieces at once if you trip. Even more fun if they get knocked out of their retention mode.

Is there a rubbing alcohol dispenser that sprays from the adjacent room after you go through? In case the first set of blood-curdling screams aren't loud enough.

Did you actually watch the video?

He literally presents a list of reasons around 5:12. Then he goes on to describe how formaldehyde already affects him.

Resin priting can be a lot of fun, but he's correct: that shit is toxic. It needs to be respected, and he's also correct in pointing out the carbon filter on many printers is basically a placebo for the consumer.

Still don't believe him? Fine. Go checkout the small book that is the set of warnings with this stuff from a resin producer: https://entropyresins.com/safety/epoxy-safety-tips/

"Number one, you can't build that now. Those tanks just took out your north power supply."

"Captain, I assure you I can build the radar. I only need five units to-"

"THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS!"

I can't put my finger on it, but I think there's been an uptick also in posts purely in the form of increasing engagement. Safe 'bets' on getting responses (i.e. ++ to AskReddit), remarkably bland headlines, and just shit that reminds me of controversy of the "jumpstart" of automated bots they used in the earlier days.

Oh boy, here we go (inhales):

Agile isn't that bad. People just believe they are more productive if they are "heads down" and not held accountable for what they write/do.

Functional programming isn't that great and doesn't solve all of the world's problems; it just pushes the issues with state to other parts of your design, and doesn't scale well in deeply nested solutions.

IDEs with proper code support (i.e. automatic structure analysis, autocomplete, etc.) are one of the best ways to deal with a large codebase that needs refactoring. Doing widescale refactors without one is asking for trouble. If you believe you don't need it, either your codebase is just that small (which is fine) or playing with fire.

Much of the advice out there on architecture and tooling isn't properly contextualized on the codebase, market, and team situation. If you believe you have the One True Architecture Solution, you are naive. (Ex. Microservices, large complex code pipelines, monorepos, etc.) Be especially wary of anything from FAANG engineering blogs unless you are also in another letter of FAANG.

There. Got it out of my system. Have fun dissecting it.

Yeah, and this only gets worse with bigger monitors. Want to use that 43" TV as Monitor #3? Wigglin' isn't going to help.

Real users give up and start using keyboard shortcuts to move crap around until they find it again.

Or just get a wireless gaming mouse with adjustable DPI, crank it up to 11 billion, and try to catch it doing near lightspeed as it goes through all four monitors at once. The only drawback is that, according to physics, it will likely have experienced time dilation, which means your mouse cursor has aged significantly in the short time it was in flight.
