Can’t say we’ve experienced this at all. Part of our test involves navigating to a third party site (gocardless) to set up a direct debit. The test works fantastically well and is a pretty crucial part of our flow, so we’ve come to rely on it.

I fundamentally disagree with your point that CSS-in-JS is a result of developers not knowing CSS. That's ridiculous

CSS-in-JS solves a lot of problems that people that have been writing 'real CSS' have been experiencing for a long time. Writing CSS for very large applications that deal with lots of shared components across engineering teams is a hard task. Some of those problems are alleviated by libraries like styled-components.

It's not for every use case and should only be used when there is a genuine need (rather than 'because it's shiny.') But shrugging off CSS-in-JS because you don't understand it is a bit silly.

We've found this as well. So much so that a plan is in place to move providers soon. It often just fails for no good reason at all. During testing I found that the UI completely breaks when a signature is below a certain size. I reported this, but still seems to be a problem.

I'm currently having to go through a home insurance claim for a similar reason. I stupidly took one of the keys off and bent a bit of plastic getting it back on. The damaged part of the key is on the keycap itself, rather than the mechanism underneath. Silly mistake but I imagine not super uncommon.

Took it to an Apple store and was quoted £700 to fix it which is equivalent to almost half the cost of the laptop. For a single key. Absolute insanity.

If the electrical wiring was shoddy enough to come unstuck with a minor road bump, I'd be more concerned about the rest of the wires in the ECU messing up, over a camera. This never happens

This is why I love drawing faces. Such a subtle change can make such a big difference to the end drawing. It's really interesting. I guess that's because our brains are so hard wired to process faces.

Do you own domain names? I began getting this after I was silly enough to leave my mobile number on a WHOIS register. Most of the calls I receive though aren't from legitimate companies and if you call back the number, it'll fail

>- Quite often when using unreleased APIs, you turn to using "any" all over the place.

What unreleased APIs are you needing to warrant this? We've used any a couple times, but usually just as a placeholder until the data model is locked down.

>- Development time is slower than writing in regular JS/React. This started to become a major issue due to the nature of our project being a prototype (fast iterations on ideas and features).

Again, I can't say I've had this experience. Development time is _initially_ a tiny bit slower, but once you've setup types, the time saved from fixing type related issues adds up very very fast. Also, autocomplete / autoimporting has actually sped up my development time hugely. Not having to worry about figuring out relative paths or imports and just being able to type a component to import it is magic.

>- Lots of frustration when a package doesn't have types (although most major ones do have them).

This is true, but I've found that 95% of the packages we use do have types. The few that don't, tend to be very small indie packages that don't do a lot, so the lack of types isn't a huge issue.

I’ve noticed the same with their notifications. As of right now, I have 1 notification. I will open the menu and see there’s not actually anything there. The badge then goes away. Refresh the page and it’s there again despite not having any notifications

Not for all of them. All I had to do to get a Starling account was send them a video of me saying my company name

That's a hell of an assumption to make

On desktop, the page remains white and then the new logo fades and scales into place before the rest of the content appears. I assume they didn't test that on mobile.

>But Consciousness... since quantum information isn't lost

Is this one of those instances where the word 'quantum' is used to hand-wave away weird ideas?
