I worked at Tableau until very recently and I can't think of any way that the Salesforce acquisition has improved things yet (I do think it will eventually improve things). Did you hear about anything specific?

What's a "shop bunny suit"?

Why not allow people to set a cap that disables everything set to that billing method once it's been reached? That seems to be the use case that people are saying is missing from cloud offerings.

> it's your comparison

Nope

As one of the other people, I disagree.

Also note that a lot of the trade regulation groups like the bar associations also ensure a good standing in the "community", so they would sanction whatever equivalent lawyers have to dark patterns, if they were frequent enough/egregious enough.

Yes, and it seems to be a fair comparison to me. Both the unsafe situations and fraudulent situations can be avoided by the adherence to standards, which the software industry currently does not have. The other industries mentioned do, and they seem to work quite well.

Have you ever had Lustucru ? They're pretty good

I think in this context that would count as having a backup

What?

Does anyone know what the likelyhood of the 4.2B being paid out is? I imagine that UBS will go through all possible appeals processes.

Also if the article is right in that this was affected by the protests, then that is a big win for protesting.

Is there any other benefit than scaling better? Because I'm pretty sure 99.9% of projects never hit the "need to scale more" part, and if they did it doesn't seem like this would be too difficult to move off of

I'm surprised compiler warnings haven't come up yet in this discussion. Checking if an unsigned number is smaller than zero typically triggers one, and code style tools can be set to treat any such check as a compilation error/not allow code with such a check to be checked in.

But it didn't use to be? From the article it sounds like it used to be a "traditional pastry"

Because they have reason to beleive it can cause liver damage?

Most countries have a body regulating what you can eat that will do it's best to stop you from ingesting dangerous amounts of, well, anything.
