EDIT: I actually updated it to omit the day when it's the first day of the month. So instead of A1, it's just A. In the visual progression, seeing "A" seems to be enough to imply "we're now in August (1st)", and it's a little less visually cluttered when quickly scanning. Hopefully it's still clear, happy to adjust!
There is one deceivingly simple trick that is essentially just that.
The main intention was to support more translations for better results.

This is exactly the type of arguably useless effort we don't want to spend any time on. Having to think about what is "reasonable", "allowed", or "best" is non-negligible cognitive burden for both the writer and reviewer/reader.
If there are no tests, the team will waste a ton of time anxiously monitoring and reasoning about the messy code and the impact of their changes.
If I zoom in close on my hand, does it move like a sprite in a 2D video game? Always on a “grid”, with no way to be in between pixels?
Has worked really well getting things done and disconnecting from work.
Could you elaborate which gatekeepers it will disrupt?
But "#0f0" is fewer letters than "green"?
But yes, there should be more emphasis on what drives business value (hence on picking a stack that allows providing that value as efficiently as possible), and with the minefield that's modern web development, starting from scratch doesn't seem sensible. The post doesn't go too deep into what they're building though, so maybe I'm missing something.
Why do you think that is?
Android software and hardware UX is typically subpar, with very little attention to detail, and things just feel out-of-touch and made by engineers and marketing bots. My hypothesis is all these things contribute to a lack of "coolness" (for lack of better word), which has a tremendous impact on the market.
Why not?
