I only know of the upgrade splash screens where Dismiss is small and/or floating off of the brightly colored splash so it doesn't contrast and is harder to see. Exactly like Amazon Music.

It probably won't be feasible due to cost, but my CV was noticed instantly once I enrolled in a Computer Science bachelor's degree program at a local college. I didn't have the degree and was still in my first year but that seemed to help get through the first-pass filter. My knowledge and skills were then apparent during interview.

If you live somewhere with free or cheap public education then this might actually be easy. And even though I never finished the program (due to life reasons, not my intention) that first year really helped fill in some low-level gaps in my knowledge.

So! Not good advice but it could actually help if you've tried everything else.

Bullying is an additional level of action, right? If you're using a different verb it probably also means additional actions that aren't simply speech.

I dislike bad stuff too. Bullying is wrong and should be stopped. Hate speech is also wrong but I'll defend people's right to speak.

Aesthetics aren't the same as quality, right?

Also, I would say writing bad code makes the code very inaccessible...just like burying important infrastructure in a wall.

Did that water leak last year cause mild growth in the wall? Don't know without some demolition! Want to upgrade your piping or electrical? Gotta destroy some wall, hooray, and then do more work to hide it again. Lunacy.

I hear you, but I'm also the type of person to admit my own uncertainty. And the people around me get way more uptake of their ideas by just leaving out those words, even when they have less or terrible foundations.

Or maybe they know the cost and it isn't worth it to them? The poster you respond to mentions litigation. That's how IP theft is handled. How much legal fees does anyone want to incur for due diligence or litigation or defense for mods and plug-ins. Only the top few will earn enough to justify the effort. Everything under that will be left to fester. Quality free and low cost mods will get copied and promoted to scam money and the people working hard, that you and I both wish to help and support, would get no help or compensation.

This is how older editors like emacs work. You interact with views/windows/tabs called buffers and those buffers can have files loaded into them. Multiple buffers can reference the same code file but view different sections simultaneously. So you can investigate or edit different parts of one huge file the same way you would smaller ones.

Why should they have any licensing at all? Is that unfair too?

My guess is that governments have interest in making sure services are safe and reliable. Hence licenses. And rules for those licenses.
