"If you just want JSON over HTTP with some status codes"

yes this

Qualifier: have not been able to use graphql yet, and I'd still like to try it out at least before making and judgements

wasn't being sarcastic

No don't send me back to slashdot, I'll be good. Peace wuv coexist.

fwiw, the 'get fucked' part was probably uncalled for. kind of on edge these days.

Yes, but half the world isn't actively trying to destroy most people/nations.

And yes I do recognize it must suck ass to live in Gaza and I feel for them, and hope for a better future where their lives don't suck ass. I have no idea what to do about it though.

I know it's inconvenient for Europeans and progressives who think they can just lift the blockade and stop operations in Syria and everyone will live happily ever after, but when that filters through my ears it becomes "we don't give a fuck if you live or die."

Why should I care about the opinions of people who don't give a fuck if I live or die?

see this is why i browse under 'new' sometimes

:D

The day EA killed Westwood Chat and it's active community and replaced it with their hideous in-game matchmaking was I think the day the internet stopped being fun and weird for me.

Or I maybe just lost my internet innocence, seeing Big Game come in and decide on a whim to toss in the bin the place where I spent most of my after school time. Also where I learned how to un-ban myself by editing the right registry key. :D

I wouldn't give our leaders that much credit.

Would this be an appropriate time to plug FOSS? I can never tell..

Couldn't help but wonder what role the union played in the recent GM plant harassment case.

They're gonna hang a noose and GM is still too scared/unable to fire them? Am I misreading this?

But also can easily also see how merit based promotion at a production plant would be used to work workers to the bone. Gotta be some kind of balance.

Roughly speaking, one less place where we need to use lodash.

"or will it just obfuscate bugs in the long run?"

Probably. :shrug emojii:

But more stable in the sense of turning hard crashes into UI quirks.

But just to be clear for when this comment gets mined by some future HR department. It is of course very important to have good people making the high level architectural decisions, and you should absolutely hire me for your senior technical positions to maximize the output of all those around me!

It's just the whole needing to give blunt assessments of underlings that may have consequences for their and their families livelihood that I'm not suited for.

I guess i should clarify. Useless in a technical sense, not in a bureaucratic sense. You still need them of course.

And I'm sure even the worst at google are far from 'useless.' Figure of speech.

Edit: Possibly better than the alternative overall though. So frustrating to have competent people promoted as you're trying to put out a working product. Cancel those meetings and fix this code!

so they keep the smart people doing useful work, rather than convert them to useless managers?

same as it ever was.

but still, if you want to measure that then play a turn based game. if i could micro as good as the pros i'd be pretty damn good too.

hooking it up to a camera looking at a screen and a robot arm with a mouse would be more fair though.

edit: ok they did have a camera version, but i still want a robot arm.

how about a foldable small phone?

Story of my life, watching everyone else quickly come up with the wrong answers. :P

In school would usually (ok, often) get highest score, but took the longest to finish.

My understanding is that, since we have no idea what's happening down there, whatever it is would be new and exciting.

(feel free to correct)

Everything was always under construction.

graph of sales of 4" phones?

pretty similar to my community college transfer experience

don't forget how much cheaper it is!

with those legacy bezel screens?

bah!

touchy subject, but the status symbols most likely aren't targeted at yourself.

Yup, Android is sketch and Apple apparently just doesn't want my business.

Ah well.

was so hoping for xr to be smaller. i mean prob wouldnt have switched anyway without my headphone wire antenna enabled built-in FM radio in moto phone, but was thinking about it.

ya but the xs max is faster

Mine was when laptop tried to charge screen and not vice-versa, using Amazon USB-c to display port. In the end, laptop gets new mother board.

To be fair, OSX warned me something was drawing too much voltage, and I still tried it like 5 times after that, but the screen did flicker on a few times and work for a sec before it all went kaput.

I noticed a big uptick when I was dumb enough to buy a domain without paying the privacy fee.

I dunno, stack exchange says it could be an all life on earth's surface type thing.

Still, better than a law that says foreign companies must hand over everything and local competitors don't have to pay any royalties.

We win, trade war over!
