Honestly, you've already identified the problem (reading books of the "first kind"), so you know what to do. Stop picking up books just because they're best sellers. That would be a great start.
... What? I've never downloaded it myself (for the same reasons as you), but that doesn't sound true. Play Store says it's 39MB. But maybe OP has that much in media in the app's cache or something.
> many tools in this space would likely accomplish this goal
Exactly, so what made your team choose Prettier versus the other tools if not the fact Prettier is the trendier choice? If some of these other tools becomes the tool du jour, what's the guarantee that people won't start arguing that you should all move over to it? You only see it as nipping the argument in the bud while a single solution holds the majority mindshare on what to do with the argument.
Please tell me how that isn't equivalent to "adhering to <famous developer on Twitter>'s gospel" vs. "not adhering to <famous developer on Twitter>'s gospel."
Maybe not? We could even have a discussion whether it's ethical to have a pet at all. But that's not even the point. You should probably be able to tell the difference between food that has been known to be consumed since forever vs. experimental drugs (or food for that matter).
> I was suggesting that people test on themselves
Ok, if that's your point, I'm completely on board with that. It wasn't very clear from your comment.
Most importantly, being anti-mask can't be attributed to a clear genetic variable (although I suppose there might be some very weak correlation), and natural selection takes way, way longer than a human lifetime to create noticeable results anyway. Not even getting into the fact that there's much more to evolution than natural selection. It actually scares me that supposedly "pro-science" people have such simplified views about it.
Sorry, that doesn't work when most groups/societies are heterogeneous in ideals. Even most people being reasonable isn't enough when the behavior of the few who aren't must be tolerated in the name of freedom. So natural selection alone won't actually improve anything.
... Or better standards that don't require JavaScript. The jump from "we need seamless navigation" to "let's use a Turing-complete language" makes zero sense.
Am I the only one who finds Anki's UI/UX to be absolutely atrocious? I know it's petty, but it's literally the only reason that's always made me not use it for more than just a few days at a time.
Is anyone working on improving the UI? Or are there alternative "frontends" out there? Does anyone know how hard it would be do it? (I assume it might not be trivial since Anki has a plugin system, but I don't know to what extent they can modify the UI)
uMatrix + uBlock Origin solve this much better than AMP does... with the advantage that it works for exactly the websites you want with exactly the resources you choose - no more, no less. uBlock even allows you to block images if they're larger than a certain size.
