An incredible number of words spent while missing the point completely.
Labubu is a child substitute. It's a caricature of a mischievous young toddler.
Historically, most people in their mid 20s would have already had at least one child. As parenthood gets pushed further back, people struggle to fill that biological yearning.
Scroll through the photos and mentally substituite a child for the doll and it will all make sense. Labubu on a keychain? The toddler is with you everywhere you go. Taking your kid to work. Dressing them up for a wedding. Taking fun selifes, visiting the gym, etc etc.
No need to pull in COVID19 or the Baudrillard wankery.
"We had all of our workers set up in an open office layout to to make sure everyone could talk to each other without a single point of failure. But last night the boss got too drunk and didn't come in, so everyone spent the day scrolling tiktok."
Incredible that tooltips were killed because braindead """designers""" couldn't figure out how to make them work on mobile.
They'll be reintroduced under a new name in a decade or two with endless self-congratulation. Same as physical car controls.
Here's a solution off the top of my head: have a dedicate "info" button at the OS level. Holding the button disables normal interaction, highlights all inspectable elements, and allows you to click on each one for a description. Like "inspect element" in the browser.
It seems like the C++98 example is the best by far? Keeps all error information while remaining concise and easy to understand. Not to mention 50 times faster. (Could be improved by adding some simple type aliases like BirthYear that explicitly start from 1900.)
IMO the main takeaway is that malformed input is not an exceptional state when parsing, and should be treated as a first class citizen. Everything else is yak shaving how you want to handle the (status, validObject) tuple coming from the parser.
