Uh, I'm gonna challenge you to give a source on that. Your comment sounds extremely biased towards React and dismissive towards Angular. None of those are dying out, I wouldn't we even say they compete directly.
Brazil is doing a similar bank-agnostic system called PIX. Kinda interesting how in the previous thread where I mentioned it a lot of people were against it because it was "not competitive" while here I'm seeing (mostly) praise for UPI.
IMHO, this is how it should be, a bank-agnostic standard set by the central bank that other services use to connect to the central and with each other. Competition is good? Yes, but not when it's a complete mess.
Oh god. I got COMPLETELY derailed by this last month. My girlfriend's son was using my tablet (which is logged on my main Google account) and recently I was being victim of this, and suddenly he asked me "what's a bussy?"
I never logged my account out of an device so fast. Google needs to fix this crap.
I worked at a company last year (specifically their RPA sector) that one of the projects we got was create a "robot" to automate certain tasks within a client.
Later after we delivered it, we learned that project alone was the reason the client cut 700 low level positions. A single "robot" could do in an afternoon what 700 people did in a week. (Was/is a pretty large company.)
The words from my manager still echo in my mind: "If we think of the "ethical" aspect of it, we wouldn't have our own jobs."
It supports some markdown, but I agree, that and a dark mode (I made a really basic one for the Stylish extension) would be the only things I'd accept as a change.
Aside that anything like making the site full of JS for more functions would be a no from me. :-)
If I'm not mistaken their CEO (Stewart) is known for saying some... Weird things. And then changing his mind right after. (My experience is from as an user on early Flickr days and his game, Glitch.)
Non-American here, I can't be the only one to find the use of "coughing spell" (especially "spell") on a medical setting... Weird. Maybe it's my understanding of the English language and how I perceive that word.
I made a new reddit account until recently and still could register without email, when it asks you for email you can just press continue without providing an email.
Brazilian here, he can't and for a good reason: The entire process for PIX, from initial engineering to final implementation is documented and made public.
The government is making this for the exact reason someone else mentioned: We're at the mercy for a handful of big players, and that's enough. One open standard for all is good. (Edit: It's also an "economy" controlling standard. Not aimed at end users. It's something for the Central Bank to keep notes on what's happening with the money going around.)
You can find more by looking on Google for: Banco Central PIX PDF
Personal note: A lot of people sadly still believe everything the government makes equals bad or equals to something that was idealized/created by the current president in office. It's not the case here by any means (the Brazilian Central Bank runs "independently") but unfortunately a lot of people see it that way.
