@eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place How is "apps with significant usage" measured there? If it's based on some user count threshold that looks like the new apps are displacing old ones, but only via each one taking a couple users. Though they're clearly all crap. That's not new for mobile, sadly - it has been the domain of shovelware for a long time @spacehobo@teh.entar.net

@ariadne@social.treehouse.systems Yes! I've found that not only is this true for something big enough to have its own line in a design doc, but it's even true for smaller units of code. Smaller than one idea, which often means smaller than one statement. @spacehobo@teh.entar.net

No, you may not merge the vibecoded diff where, when running the test, half the functionality is swapped out for a dummy class. Also you should have at least two tests.

This is a super junior dev (first coding job) so I don't blame them but, as for the other staff level engineers who looked at this and didn't call out the problems, I have harsh... thoughts, at least. Satisfying as harsh words can be in the moment they're not actually going to make my job better or easier in the long run.

I'm sorry, but "that contract attached to the Carta grant of equity is not actually active" is not a good excuse for it being wrong.

Also, no, I still won't sign a contract that says I've been allowed to see certain information which you won't share with me. Nor will I sign one which says I agree to terms, explicitly to include ones which might bind me, which are in a document you won't show me.

@fuzzyleapfrog Looks like it's being appealed so there will be another opportunity! https://apnews.com/article/ftc-meta-appeal-antitrust-752463c7783ba14b00b686fe0c933f88 Also sorry, I didn't mean that as a contradiction of what you were saying about them not being mostly a social media company. I apologize if it came off that way. @spacehobo

@fuzzyleapfrog Seems like a ridiculous argument, though. If I control 100% of market A and 10% of market B and market B is more important to my business, I'm still a monopoly in market A. @spacehobo

It's not even half assed, it's a half assed approach to a half assed implementation of a half assed idea.

Eighth assed, perhaps.

@deutrino Yeah, the big boxes are way cheaper for sure Every once in a while I don't deal with the strainer right away and I always have to soak it to get it clean

I don't understand the popularity of teabags.

Sure they're convenient if all you have is a paper cup and a presspot of barely-hot water but surely at home you can have a mug or even a teapot with a built in strainer. Then you can use looseleaf tea which is both better, cheaper, and available in greater variety.

Twinings Irish Breakfast for instance is $85/kg. We pay $55/kg for better tea. Sure, you can buy Lipton for $22/kg but that's hardly tea.

Plus then you create less waste. Yes, many teabags are compostable these days (though you still need to watch out for staples on the cheap ones) but how often are they actually composted? And it's still more Stuff to grow and process and pack and ship. If you drink tea from bags do yourself a solid and buy a little mug sized strainer and some looseleaf. We like Halmari and Thurbo from Upton, for black teas.

@Cerulean Thanks for passing along the question and the answer! I sent it to my sibling who works in the accessibility office at Harvard. They're planning to reach out, though their time for testing is pretty constrained until the end of the semester
