This is not really guaranteed to solve the problem. It will only be a part of the solution.

In many countries, including Europe, new properties are quickly snatched by investment companies that have much easier access to capital than private individuals and can easily afford to pay above market prices. People shouldn’t really have to compete with companies or “investors” on the housing market.

Except they left the “legitimate interest” loophole which gets abused by every website.

Modern UX:

“ We respect your privacy! Do you agree to the use of cookies by this website?

[x] Yes, all of them, with some extra on top.

[] I would like to manually review and uncheck 859 individual checkboxes or be directed to some other 3rd party website to manage my settings there. Also, I would like these settings to expire after 7 days.

Your personal data matters to us! (In ways you can’t imagine) “

Which means the author has managed to look past the most superficial and simplistic answers and current political fads.

Not sure I agree with your “opressive” high-IQ developers spin, but it’s clear that whoever implements this kind of captcha (even the not-so-challenging ones) doesn’t give a shit about user experience and deserve to metaphorically-speaking, burn in hell. I think it’s just an example for how developers should not make decisions about UI or UX in general. It doesn’t really matter how hard to solve the captcha is, it shouldn’t exist in the first place, even those with: “pick all the fire hydrants”.

> 2. Secure server software ($5000). This does not seem to be an absolute necessity; there are a lot of sites on the web where you can send your credit card number unencrypted, and to date there have been no reports of the numbers being stolen. But catalog companies may believe that a secure link is necessary, and spending this $5000 would give Webgen a much more professional look.

In theory yes, but they can't use the data for legitimate business while also complying with the regulations.

This, and also the power of tracking comes from being able to share data/track across domains. So the best way to mitigate this is not to dumb down our browsers but to fight cross domain access to this data. This can be done either by regulation (see GDPR) or technical measures (disabling cross-site scripting, cookies etc)

Without brakes.

Exactly, not everything needs to have rounded corners with 20px of padding. I also like the default design.

I only use Python because I use Django because of the admin.

They though about that too, they will provide an API, that the developer has to call before redirecting the user to the external payment provider. So they can approximate the amount of sales the app generates. It’s in the article.

I still somewhat prefer the readability of promises vs. await. I like the expressiveness of a then/catch as functions as opposed to try/catch blocks, which I‘ve always disliked. But I agree that await is more suitable for more complex scenarios.

> TypeScript's type system is over-complex since it tries to be a superset of JS.

This is exactly why it got so popular, and TypeScript support in the JS ecosystem is so good. It's easy to just strip the TS metadata and you're left with working JS. This is why projects like esbuild managed to ship TS support so quickly (without type-checking). Good luck doing that with a new language.

I for one am "all in" on TypeScript, with all its shortcomings it's just the best of both worlds, and so easy to get on board.

I take no credit for it.

Let‘s hope web4 is around the corner with some real and useful innovation, so we can all stop taking about Ponzi schemes.

I thought web3 was about to be about AI running the world, 5G mind control and IoT everywhere, now I hear it‘s about blockchain.

Blockchain supporters stole a word once (crypto), now they’re trying to steal web3. I am disappointed.

CDU is a center catch-all party, and SPD is a left party. Which part is not true? I wasn't referring to US politics, this is a thread about Germany.

No need for spying tech when you have legally-binding agreements.

To continue your analogies, German would probably be Rust (german grammar is strict and pretty inflexible but leads to correct linguistic output), and Mandarin would be C++ ( because you have to learn so much syntax before you can do anything). (no offense to anyone)

That’s a welcome feature even though I don’t like the syntax. But Go could become the perfect language if they just fixed error handling and a couple small annoying quirks.

I don’t think elections are being won by being honest about your military intentions.

Hold the back button, and pick a page from the recent history.

> How would the general population afford electric vehicles?

I would think that the principle of economies of scale would apply in this case, reducing the cost of production. The progress regarding battery recycling will probably drive the price further down.

So exactly the countries profiting the most from selling polluting cars?

The UK is banning the sale of internal combustion cars starting 2030, now how is 10 years later a problem for the rest of the world?

The problem as I see it is that it can put you at an unfair disadvantage to your team-mates who might choose to reply to your boss, or even do that "urgent thing" that your boss wants. Now you're suddenly the employee who chose not to "dedicate" extra 15 mins of your time to that "important" project. There should not be this kind of competition outside of working hours. Free time and family life should be protected.

Nothing that I said is “antivax”. You should try to direct your frustrations somewhere else when you’re looking to rationalize your own decisions.

Just FYI, infected vaccinated people have same levels of virus as unvaccinated people, and transmit the virus at the same rate. Best way to “stay away from unvaccinated people” is to just get yourself vaccinated and call it a day. If someone is immunocompromised they are not safe near vaccinated people either.
