Is bottom decile consumption a good measure of economic health? In a way it seems it could signal the opposite, ie in the past the bottom decile was saving that money in an effort to change their economic conditions vs spending it now could indicate a lack of hope for upward mobility.

To your example it seems worth noting that the quality of the air travel experience appears to decline over time as well.

The original complaint cites no minimum land ownership requirement and the judgement does not seem to make specific disagreement with this fact as best I can tell, so that is my understanding as well.

Is there some kind of ambiguity inherent in designated initializers such that the field ordering requirement is necessary for C++ or is it rather just a quirk of the compiler authors’ choices?

If I give you a piece of titanium and tell you a piece of lead with equivalent volume would have greater mass I have in no way said the density of titanium is zero.

I agree that not engaging would have been preferable and is going forward.

What you infer from reading the text is your problem, not mine. My follow up comment articulates exactly my position.

I don’t doubt that people feel this way. I doubt that every new account inflating the apparent consensus is genuine.

There is no insinuation. The astroturfing objectively occurs and that it does so is an inherent strain on the credibility of engagement like that of the GP.

It's striking how concise the program in the first video is. Also I had no idea "Digger" existed. I've only ever known Dig Dug in that style.

The section with heading "Be Extremely Portable" seems relatively clear to me, but perhaps that is just because I already understand host vs target compatibility.

Nobody “needed” the web to do these things. We decided that the effort and cost of making native applications was too great. I’d argue we went the wrong way given that even the same browser will exhibit slightly different behavior depending upon the underlying platform upon which it runs.

I just went and confirmed this because it’s not something I’ve really looked at and I agree. The date picker you get from a straight up <input type=“date”> on iOS webkit is pretty nice.

The one in webkit on macOS isn’t quite as good, but is better than the one in firefox if only because firefox closes the picker when you type a year in to move far through time. Good thing firefox is open source.

Portability across compilers is orthogonal to portability across target architectures.

Typing “I don’t know” saves you more time than asking the AI and pasting the answer.

I’d say the increased scrutiny has merely exposed the difference in care between the different groups in the industry. Seems to explain pretty well why both sides are equally confounded by the other’s expectations.

“... it seems unlikely he would ship this rewrite if it didn’t meet his quality bar” is every bit as vibes-based as the decision you are critiquing.

It depends upon what you mean. A dream is a stream of unconscious ideas in a way. One could also look at Jungian psychology and point to the ideas your conscious mind rejects by projecting onto others as unconscious ones, with the idea being that we refuse to face them in ourselves and so must put them outward.
