Traditional routing has always been very, very open. Like a club where anyone is welcome and if new folks mess stuff up it just gets fixed.
Several IRRs used to allow RPSL changes by email to their systems with only maintainer auth and no verification of route ownership (e.g. you register with the IRR, then publish Google routes).
It’s all getting hardened nowadays with things like no more email, layers of verification, RPKI, etc.
It’s not necessarily what folks want but how this stuff had traditionally been handled. Thankfully it’s all changing because of events like this.
Could be an editor, monitor, chair, etc. It might not seem like some of those little things matter -- if I can sit in the chair, it works for me! -- but they do to some and typography is one of those things.
I don't understand folks who don't understand this. I get it if you don't personally care about typography but every developer is making QOL decisions.
Not saying anything in here is good/bad/other but you rarely see this level of flagged and down-voted comments in a HN thread.
I wonder how streamers would feel having to change their names from something like "ProGamerTTV" to "ProGramerAG" or if it would even happen/matter.
Just because it looks like magic, doesn't mean there isn't someone pulling some strings somewhere else to aid the illusion.
That said, if you're using the service desk stuff from Jira I might stay with it. I understand the pain of having to administer Jira and how it creates project-specific EVERYTHING on the backend (workflows, et al.) but it's great for end users and it's super flexible.
When you need to handle an almost unlimited range of screen sizes having your visual system able to handle a little math is critical.
2: Pick a few colors you like, and a few in your industry.
3: Pick a few fonts you like, and a few in your industry.
4: Find icons/shapes related to your business (google images: "[business type] icon" as a start, then branch from there based on what you find).
5: Mash it all together as many different ways a possible.
6: See what you like/dislike. Repeat as needed.
That's it, that's the secret. Get stuff you like and stuff that works and mash it together to see what happens. Then take your mash-ups and keep mashing and playing until you find something that fits. You don't have to love it, just get something that works. A lot of folks don't like their branding initially.
What designers won't tell you is that the process is sometimes just brute-forcing creativity and that's totally okay. You can't always feel inspired or have that "one perfect idea" and you've still gotta get stuff done.
I'm all for keeping old things around and that includes Flash stuff (look at my user name). But Shumway is super dead.
I believe there are more active projects going you might want to check out if you're looking to keep Flash alive/around.
