Yes. Not interested in putting them in the cloud in the slightest. 99% of what's on my desktop i don't want/need on my phone, work or whatever.

People misusing tabs for bookmarks need to get their head checked. Surely the only way you find anything is in the address bar anyway, an there they are equivalent.

So... WHOIS is now JSON over HTTP. I guess that's reasonable. But this warrants the sample application to need a gazillion crates why exactly?

It's like using Chromium or whatever clone-a-chrome is hip at the moment. That does absolutely nothing to disrupt the status quo and is very much at the whim of the upstream "owner" whether you want to see it or not.

In fairness; that and the overlay is what is happening, just from C++. Props for nice oneliner none the less. :)

When i have joined a new project, i have asked for a "safari" from one or a few senior people. Show me "the big five" of your area. Pretty simple to find time and willingness for generally, and it's been a good amount of info to digest at once.

The fault goes deeper; they say X percent less counted in percentage points of the compared thing and not the baseline. If you then have multiple rows, the uselessness becomes evident.

Is it some cultural or linguistical thing where it always has to be X amount more or less and never "Y% of"?

1-(300/160) comes out correct if rounded. I.e. 300 is 188% of 160, therefore you are making 88% less. That's not how percentages work!

Wow. Just wow. Is there really a mistake this big here?

What is it with people and not understanding percentages? "How Much Less Do Techies Get Paid Outside the Bay?" "SF Bay Area 100%" "Miami -88%" So people in Miami are paying to work? And even if it was meant to be relative to a baseline (which is not what it says!); i have a very hard time believing that they get only 12% the pay in Miami compared to SF.
