I feel like I'm on borrowed time with my SoundLink Mini II. Once a year or so I need to use their website to open a diagnostics tool and clear the logs on the system to get it working.
A lot the post above boils down to "Trust me bro." As early users of a new website, what assurances can be put in place to help us believe the motives here? As the site grows, and costs exponentially more, your mindset and desires are sure to change.
One of the big issues I see with Reddit right now, is that we the community never "owned" the data. Now that the site owner's motives changed, we're stuck in this weird state where the community made the site what it is today, and now the owner is taking it back to monetize it for his own gain. If the community is required to help moderate, grow, and maintain an organized dataset, it would be ideal if somehow the community shares ownership or has assurances it remains faithful to the statements above we are buying into.
I was actually in the opposite boat. Right move, wrong time was intuitive and I would be lost if a box was yellow and I actually made a wrong move. Maybe "right piece wrong move" could be a yellow outlined box with grey inside or something.
It's a cool concept, but I agree. I have several projects that I started then other people took over or ownership transferred. No mention on the resume.
You're being down voted because your comments came off very angry and ranty. However, you are not wrong. His twitter usage is often hate filled or bullying. The one that stands out most is calling the scuba diver a pedo because he called Elon's submarine idea a PR stunt, which it totally was. Or when he trolls Bernie by saying he forgot he was still alive, because he doesn't agree with his stance on taxation. Elon is not really the best example or leader of free speech I would hope for.
This feels like Trillian for virtualenvs. So typical that as engineers we keep abstracting everything we can until we run out of people that understand the basics. This tool looks like a great resource until step 4 when we create a virtualenv protocol. In chat clients, the protocols came first. For development IDEs adding auto-complete, it seems the protocol LSP came second. It's happening to language virtualenvs now as well.
1. You need a tool for X to solve an issue so you write it. (AIM)
2. Guy over there needs a tool for Y to solve the same issue, so he writes it. (Yahoo Chat)
3. So many tools exist, we need to merge them all into one. (Trillian, Adium)
4. Merging all the tools created a monster, we need a common protocol they all understand.
5. No one remembers how tool X works anymore, updates become more sparse.
6. Both X and Y are no longer popular, big company took over. (Slack)
Through terrible process and QA on their end, MS essentially stole a copy of the game back from me with this change.
My son got an email saying he needed to migrate our Mojang account to an MS account and he clicked through like the email said. Problem was the Microsoft account he migrated to already had a Minecraft purchase. Now I essentially lost a copy of the game because we technically have two Minecraft accounts with the same email. We can only log into one of them.
I contact MS with the best link I could find but it was not actually linking me up to a MS employee, but cycled me through four different "experts", each of which I had to re-explain the issue, and each said they didn't know how to help me before bouncing me to another expert. It was a terrible experience and still unresolved.
