There are more than enough things to complain about. If somebody wants to have a YouTube channel where they just complain, why is that a problem?

There was a Veritasium video about these two modes. Survival mode is triggered not just by food scarcity, but also by extreme heat, extreme cold, and one other thing (I forgot).

There are many options: couscous, rice, air-fried potatoes, even pure popcorn (raw corn + vegetable oil) is healthy and very filling.

Watched it last year. The premise is great, but I thought that the acting was very poor.

Sounds like web performance optimization is more important than ever.

But is it really worth fixing these things? What do you achieve by spending time and money to fix these details, other than making users slightly less annoyed by your design? Maybe these details are not fixed because they don’t really matter that much. Have you ever stopped using an app because a button or icon was slightly misaligned?

configs the user changed != values in bold do not match their default or do not exist by default

It would be useful if Firefox recorded which configs the user changed. Imagine if you could view a chronological, tabular list of all configs that you changed. Name, default value, changed value, date.

Explain like I’m five: Why do these modern electric helicopters have many small rotors, but traditional helicopters have only one big horizontal rotor? If many small rotors is more efficient, why haven’t non-electric helicopters done it?

“UPDATE: Previously, Apple announced plans to remove the Home Screen web apps capability in the EU as part of our efforts to comply with the DMA. The need to remove the capability was informed by the complex security and privacy concerns associated with web apps to support alternative browser engines that would require building a new integration architecture that does not currently exist in iOS.

We have received requests to continue to offer support for Home Screen web apps in iOS, therefore we will continue to offer the existing Home Screen web apps capability in the EU. This support means Home Screen web apps continue to be built directly on WebKit and its security architecture, and align with the security and privacy model for native apps on iOS.

Developers and users who may have been impacted by the removal of Home Screen web apps in the beta release of iOS in the EU can expect the return of the existing functionality for Home Screen web apps with the availability of iOS 17.4 in early March.”

Maybe it would be better if the circle didn’t have such a high contrast. I don’t want a black circle burnt into my eyes after I’m done with this exercise.
