It's nice the Applescript exists (although I was talking more about Windows) but again, it's very sad one has to use an Applescript to accomplish this, on Mac.
I mean, a solution is out there: very good. Nevertheless, it doesn't justify or excuse iTunes for not having this feature.
That's a shitty excuse to reboot; sounds more like they didn't want to bother. If you do your job properly, errors can be handled. If you do your job properly, errors aren't simply hex values.
Maybe people were used to reboot their computers 7 years ago but these days, you can entirely work and reboot only for system patches.
By folder watching, I mean: when I put a multimedia file in in a folder (which I've assigned to be 'watched'), iTunes updates the library. I'm very certain Windows has APIs for exactly this kind of situation. In fact, if they can do it for one folder, I'm having trouble seeing a reason why they wouldn't be able to do it for several folders.
Or the lack of the most basic elements of a media library: folder watching. No, I don't want one folder, I want to watch any folder. Seriously, how fucking complicated is that to implement?
Yeah, I did not foresee that; it's actually quite critical you use Facebook.
Anything requiring the users to confirm they don't know the name of the other party slows the process quite some and removes the laissez-faire element.
I guess you could also reverse the idea: if someone is offended by every cultural difference, maybe one should refrain from... living in a multi-cultural world?
What is "public consumption" anyway? I don't want to have everyone communicating through death threats but I also want even less for everyone to sound like a PR representative.
Maybe the solution is to simply understand the cultural differences?
Indeed but really, how many encoders does one use? That is, it's not like there are dozens of them that are widely used. If there are only 2 or 3 (say, LAME, some Apple one and some Microsoft one) and people usually use 2 or 3 bitrates... well that leaves quite the space for overlapping.
Pretty much; the context where this employee would thrive would mean equally amazing employers. An incompatible employee-employer relationship can't be sustained, whoever's "fault" it is.
Amazing. Now, let's all fantasize about bosses who don't suffer from personal insecurities, incompetence and fleeing responsibility that could deal with such an employee.
These articles always sound like the employers are all Gandalfs and all the employees are all the novices.
>The straightway is not self-policing because the dangers are not as obvious. Maybe there are animals crossing, or some other thing that is not immediately obvious to a driver.
I assure you that while I understand your point, people do go 80km/h in that area even though it is heavily ticketed and even though they do, there have not been any such accidents.
I'm not directing this at you but I have to say I'm getting irritated by the 'stop questioning, you wouldn't understand' argumentation. The reasons decisions are made and the way conclusions are reached continue to be a non-transparent process when there is no reason this should be. In the past, you could bring about an argument about communicating this information but with the possibility to post information on the website, there is no excuse.
I already highly question the competence and honesty of my municipality's decision-makers, this kind of shit is not helping.
Well, if the winding road is self-policing because of self-preservation, why isn't the straightway? Sure, people will go 80km/h, even 90km/h, but why not, it's basically highway conditions.
In some sense, I don't really care who sets the speeds limits and who enforces them. The legislatve and bureaucratic tangle is so Gods damn dense from my point of view, I wouldn't even know who to blame. I'm not stupid enough to think the officer ticketing me in responsible for anything but what do I know, maybe the chief of police can say something to the mayor, like "hey, people going 80 on that highway-looking street isn't actually dangerous".
As always, it's easy to pass the "not my responsibility" or "it ain't desperately broke, no need to fix it" for government decision-makers.
