To me, similar reasons surface to why it's a disaster waiting to happen.
Formulae hidden away in non document DAX columns. Its horrendous. Its the worst thing to happen to "BI", "Data analysis" that I've seen.
Given me a clearly defined single R markdown document that's easy to follow. If you can't follow the Markdown document, you shouldn't be running analysis in the first place.
The current environment - at least online - is you have to be for something, picking a side.
Against you however, people may say - we can’t turn off that part of who we are and be different at work. People have forgotten that saying nothing is an option. Stop talking - especially the people which shout opinions loudly and add no value.
The only cartoon I’ve seen recently for a 3 year that isn’t terrible is Bluey - and Australian English cartoon.
Only one I’ve seen where there is actual emotional development/content illustration of cause and effect.
I've switch off every possible toggle on Apple TVs, iPhones MacBooks and all the devices still ping back to Apple HQ with time.apple.com, time-osx.g.aaplimg.com, metrics.icloud.com..... so I take this with a grain of salt. I've logged all DNS - using nextdns - and the number of requests back to HQ is more that it should be.
Agreed that its definitely not someones side project on a Friday afternoon!
I want to get up to speed and distill what options are available - at a high level. I won't code it/deploy it, but I'm good at reading and understanding setups and seeing the pros and cons.
I’m coming from a position of limited knowledge on both platforms, so curious.
I don’t know.
Majority of maids live in 1.5m x 1.7m rooms, get paid ~450USD a month (anecdotal guess), are female and see their own kids for maybe two weeks a year, work 6 if not 7 days a week.
Is that a society we should aspire to?
Edit: As a number of others have mentioned below. I too have reduced reddit intake due to the poor UI amongst a realisation of its not a good use of my time.
I lived there for 4 years just after the GFC as the transition was slowly continuing to stronger Chinese rule.
My view is nothing new. My gut feeling take away was that China will want to run HK into the ground - as a middle finger to the west - and have the only strong pillars on the region to be Shanghai and Beijing.
It’s offensive
Can someone explain why the gmail iOS app places action/touch elements At the top of the phone? It makes zero sense to me why they would choose this design.
Many other apps have the same layout and my common sense says put everything in the bottom half of the display as that’s where users fingers/thumbs are?
I’d hate to think that in this forum, just because a comment is short and succinct - what I thought to be a daily clear response, meaning “the authors live in a bubble of experience and expectations” - it is somehow lesser value that a comment that is long winded and without a clear opinion.
TLDR. I hope HN doesn’t confuse clear and succinct with snarky and sarcastic.
