>This is part of why I get enraged whenever somebody on Tumblr says “People in Group X need to realize they have it really good”,

Imagine that 70 year old lady he describes lacking access to proper health care or shelter. Not that I am unsympathetic, but first world problems are first world problems, get enraged at your own peril.

> Every programing language you look at

Isn't the point of CSS that it's not a programming language? It's just a list of properties, after all.

"Are they convincing you of anything or are they just making you mad?" They give me a reasonable overview of the zeitgeist.

"... fail to take into consideration nuance and complexity and contex" It's up to you to do your homework and dig into such specifics.

"... lips and noses is not dignifying ..." Not that conflicting written political pieces tend to dignify the opposing side either. Now, if caricatures make your heart bleed, you're very entitled to your opinion.

"There's no rebuttal to a political cartoon, there's no dialogue" Not until the internet came up and made communication 2-way.

"They're cheap and easy to make and easy to consume and are just as easy to forget." Like pretty much 90% of nowadays "journalism". Maybe the word should be "infotainment"

Excuse the off topic, but I can't help thinking that "brutalist" has already become the next "literally"

I feel you... that pesky people with different and well argumented opinions... tsk tsk...

At least we got croissants

One doesn't need to be too old to be responsible of his own actions

The unity of Europe in that era was never such to consider the East "an existential threat"

Given that they're not destroying the planet -and themselves with it- I'd give them at least the benefit of doubt.

Hard to tell if this is a sarcastic comment or not.

An exchange of processed resources, which is where the wastage goes.

In all fairness, I'm not sure how much of that applies 14 years later.

And access to some of those pesky infinite resources

As well as naive. It's all about the 'market', not about the 'friends'.

Non sequiturs aside, the fact that you are not the target doesn´t mean that it sucks.

Let me un-editorialise the title a bit:

"How Sketch Took on Adobe by Making a Faster, Leaner, Cheaper Image Editor, which is kind-of-useful for a very specific field -as long as it works properly- and leaving Adobe pretty much to be the standard for everything else (but catching up, see XD)"

When you are good looking, harassment behaviour is called leering. So, this painting promotes leering it seems.

Correct me as well; but if memory serves right the issue was that google news did not display just a link, but also a two liner bit or so, giving a glimpse of the article and driving away people who were content just with reading that couple of lines. HN just gives you a link, it does not disclose any article content before you click the link.

> Being rich has always been sexy

And on top of that, the guys come from an already well off background. They were able to invest all the time they wanted in their personal projects, as mundane problems like paying the rent were never issue to them.

Well, yes it is. Ask the cambodians or the chinese.

Not that one can have much of a "quality debate" in 280 character bites, anyway.

Call me crazy, but I expect an icon to behave as an icon, and a film to behave as a film.

Off topic: isn't this an overly inflated clickbaity editorialised headline?

While there is no denial for that, I fail to see how that is an insight into the the charity vs workers' conditions issue

Rather off-topic, but I'm curious abut your view of Bezos charitably funding schools instead of improving his worker's conditions.

And I don't care about Trump's policies or Brexit anyway.

"You're saying that ..."

No, that's not what he's saying, and no, a single person does not have the same leverage an entire collective has against a larger company.

I agree. User experience is so overrated these day, right?

Your bet your ass that less than 5ms go unnoticed by serious pros in the business.

From the post title: "Venezuela's Inflation to Reach 1M Percent"

If I'm correct, I'd say "they" refers to "Venezuelans", that is, the inhabitants of Venezuela.
