So what does action look like? Half the country voted for this, we can't act surprised this is happening. We heard Trump's words loud and clear and half the country pretended to not listen or not care because "the liberals were ruining our country".

What can we do, truthfully? I've wrote to elected officials who I haven't heard a peep from. Why aren't the people in charge taking lead to stop this? Genuine question. What can we do? Because the last paragraph in this article makes it sound like violence is the next step which is not something I personally advocate for myself.

This is my biggest gripe at the moment. I can't find any information on which brands contained which amount of containments.

Hey, I'm not sure you'll see this but I wanted to let you know that I added a color blind assist mode based on another comment's suggestion of adding patterns/textures to the tiles. In the top-right corner is a hamburger menu where the mode can be enabled.

I'm not 100% if this is the right solution for your needs but I'd be interested in hearing if the update helps at all.

Thanks again for the feedback!

Well in elementary school they'll be teaching my daughter that blue and yellow make green and red and blue make purple. Not sure how I could help the techies here :)

I really appreciate this suggestion. I also had a friend hung up on the directional concept. I'll look to fix that with a gentler tutorial possible. Thanks for trying it out!

I'm really sorry about the color problems, my wife also has some color issues that I was trying to work around. I think having a high contrast mode is something I can add.

Thanks for trying it out, really appreciate you letting me know.

Yes, agreed. But do you know how rare good CTOs are? I do, because I've consulted for more companies without a good one than worked at companies with a good one.

A good CTO is like a good CEO. They have to be involved in the nitty-gritty sometimes. Stepping down and up is a challenge that not many engineers possess.

This is why I get paid top dollar as a consultant ;) When a company's top engineers decide to rewrite their stack in JavaScript, I get to swoop in, take $10k and tell them their old PHP monolith was just fine.

Long live idiots, for I'll always get paid

Same, tried it, hated their crypto push and ads, uninstalled and never looked back. I'll never use Brave because of their stupid default decisions like putting a "tip" button under each Tweet or random news articles. Such a shame too because otherwise it's a decent browser.

That said, Firefox Quantum is vastly superior in my opinion without all the crypto bullshit.

Granted, PayPal hasn't made the world an objectively worse place, just for developers.
