How about the Canadian treatment of their native population? Should everyone hate all Canadians?

I keep hearing about how modal editing is faster

I’ve always been skeptical that optimizing text input speed would make a significant difference to overall performance. IMO if you are unhappy with your setup then look around but if you’re not you don’t need to have FOMO about it.

Mozilla making the judgment that it may be more effective to attempt to push advertising tech towards more privacy friendly technology (i don’t agree with them but I can understand the thought process) and Google being an evil advertising empire are not even remotely the same thing.

While you’re technically correct, this false equivalence you’re trying to draw is just absurd.

As if these are all equally deep in advertising with the same motivations and history

You must be fun at parties

If all the companies that sell a common good at the supermarket shrinkflate, then are you supposed to just not but tortillas? For most, the answer is too sigh and still make burritos or whatever

The status quo vs … gestures wildly ???

When turnout affects the result election to election, potential voters and active voters is a meaningful distinction. It’s fine not to specify, but it’s just sad to get so bent out of shape over someone adding precision to a claim.

You said more than half the country voted for Trump, and then when corrected started throwing a moronic temper tantrum saying that it doesn’t matter. Why are so against accuracy in your statements?

OK but how does lying about the reality help anything? And why are you sooo keen to do so?

Apathy/ignorance and support are different. I don’t understand what’s so hard about that.

I think it’s an important distinction.

I’d way rather use a pwa than an election/react native/whatever app

I get your point but also I think it’s nice there is a place I can go on the internet where I don’t have to deal with those weirdos. By virtue of the groups in question you are also framing “we should run society differently i think this way would be better” and “i don’t think gay and trans people should be allowed to exist” as a mere disagreement.

I’ve only ever given a cursory look at personal repos when they’re volunteered. I’m most likely to just look at a readme and maybe look at a small section just to see what the style looks like and if any characteristics stand out, then maybe use discussion of the project (with standard topics I ask everyone unless I happened to see something interesting) as a discussion starter.

In summary, at least from my perspective, I would recommend just doing whatever interests you and being ready to discuss, if you volunteer a project. I also generally think the impact of presenting a portfolio of personal projects tends to be overestimated.

I’d think it’s just as likely they reinvented a wheel for fun/learning if I’m looking at a personal project… I also don’t judge hobby projects for absence of unit tests.

I have used those topics as discussion points after looking at code someone volunteered as it can be very enlightening, but to hold hobby code to a professional standard is kind of nuts tbh.
