Seems so. If you think about it, having smartphones, smaller tablets (<= 7") running the same OS as 10/13" tablets didn't make sense in first place, because they're just used differently.
This also reflects in UI design, it makes more sense to group a 10" tablet into a small laptop category, instead of grouping them with 5 ~ 7" phones or small tablets half the width.

From a holistic perspective, regarding UI frameworks and the developer experience in general, grouping by screen real estate vs. device category could make the entire organization of things much simpler, improving the developer experience by a lot.

Apple might do the same, turning their iPads into their new non pro laptop line down the road. They already ditched the "mini" versions of their tablets a while ago, and their UI framework switched from device category adaptability to adaptability based on screen real estate. (e.g. a phone app could just be a sidebar, and a tablet app the main content area on a 16:10 screen).

Faroese guy here. Feel free to ask me any questions if there is something in this comment that I don't address.

As you might imagine, Faroese people have a tendency to get quite defensive when this subject comes up. In my opinion, this mostly comes from the fact that most of the critique is based on misinformation.

First of all, I should point out that the whale slaughter is not purely a tradition. It's not like fox hunting or bullfighting, which is are mainly done for entertainment and other non-essential reasons. The whale hunt accounts for a significant portion of the meat consumed in the country. The only other locally sourced meat is sheep and fish. Everything else needs to be imported. The whale hunt is not for fun or for entertainment. It is for food. Is it possible to survive without it? Sure, but then those missing calories will need to be imported, causing damage to the environment and also acting as drain on the already vulnerable economy.

The Faroes are largely supported by fishing, and most families own a modern boat. If we for some reason had to do the whaling with traditional wooden boats, then we'd all need to own two boats. Not only that, but the hunt would become much more dangerous and risky for no practical reason.

That said, the boats are probably not used for hunting like you imagine it. They are used to herd the whales onto the beach where they are killed using pretty traditional means. This part of the hunt has also diverged from the old days though, and I would definitely say for the better. Originally, the whales were killed by slicing their throats, letting them bleed out. These days doing it like that is illegal. We have developed a new spear-like tool, which makes it easy to sever the spinal cord in a single blow, instantly killing the whales. This eliminates the most painful part for the animal.

The whale drives are a communal effort to provide food for the entire community, not a "manhood tradition", as often depicted in the media. I can tell you one thing for certain - if people stopped caring about eating whales, the tradition would also stop.
That also crossed my mind. But they have shareholders.

I would never in my life assert that these issues, ethically, are simple.

I think that Google trying to hide this information is more connected to their image and culture more so than anything else.

From an outsider looking in, it seems that Google has this hyper progressive culture that thousands of people live and work in. So the company helping the US military get better at killing people with flying robots clashes with the ideals expressed by the company and are a part of its culture.

Is your question relating to my comments on 'sides'? Your original comment is what brought up sides. When you think about this issues, what do you mean by sides?

You just say "the side your on is pretty important". You use WWII to try to bolster this claim, but that doesn't mean anything to me in the context. I trying to understand what you mean in your comment.

Anybody can use any tool to their liking, obviously. But again, you are objectively wrong with Emacs. Every programmer has certain things they need to automate, certain recurrent tasks and then certain non-programming stuff. I am not a professional ptogrammer, and I use Emacs for a handful of non programming tasks. I do tens of things daily with it that is plain impossible with a preferences menu, and impossible or prohibitively hard to do with other programs.

Edit: Now I'm on the computer, I can link you to my init.el [1] so that you can skim and observe how much is configuration and how much is stuff that's possibly unique to my workflow. And how much is very useful stuff only possible in Emacs (one of my favourites is the URL routing stuff, at line 3674, something I inadvertently use tens of times a day).

You are shifting topics, that's extremely disingenuous. Your argument was about a 'Machine Learning Engineer' and 'react' knowledge.

Let's look at the job ads:

'Solution architect' - not a 'Machine Learning Engineer'

'job not found'

'Data Engineer' - again not a 'Machine Learning Engineer'. no 'react'.

'CTO - again not a 'Machine Learning Engineer'.

'Frontend Developer' - again not a 'Machine Learning Engineer'.

You also generally seem not to understand job ads. If they list as desired skills a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, ... then usually an interesting SUBSET is required. These skills are often mentioned so that they appear in searches and to signal people a range of interesting technology.

> I found on Indeed just with 'tensorflow' and 'scrum',

What does that show, again? Nothing. Your argument was about 'machine learning engineers' doing front end development with react. Stick with your original argument.

> extremely common for companies to try to require you to have front-end skills or train you to have them and then give you crap projects that are only aspirationally focused on machine learning, or just use machine learning as crappy hype signalling.

Now we are back to front end development. If your 'machine learning engineers' have to do 'frontend development', they should look elsewhere. The topic is in high demand and there are lots of better employers which have actual 'machine learning' projects for engineers.

GDPR is not applicaple to personal or household activities

I think this view is from a stereotyped but not really accurate view of warfare and it's reasons and execution. Warfare generally has very little to do with emotion. Even today, as always, it tends to be the same thing - one side has something and another side wants it. And in cases where you're not the side doing the taking, you need to be equally capable in war to defend what you have. Even things like religious warfare were more of a convenient casus belli for taking things than the cause entirely in and of themselves. This was a real risk all the way up until the 20th century. The thing that really changed the game was nukes which makes military dominance basically impossible, for now...

Similarly, throughout history it's invariably the more intelligent side that wins in war - at least in the longrun. The Mongols ended up wiping out a huge percent of the entire earth's population with an army that, for instance, when invading Europe only numbered in the low tens of thousands and were very lightly armored compared to the forces they were fighting. But they were smart in war and strategy and had relatively advanced technology in their composite bows. That the Mongoloid group of peoples to this day still have a substantially higher IQ than average I think is at least a reasonably strong correlation in support of selection for intelligence.

I want to say, as a guy who is not much of a web developer but is trying to make a web site, css is f'ing frustrating.

For example I found a CSS-only stylized dropdown list, which is great. Why should I have to use Javascript to stylize a dropdown list?

Anyway I take the component and css from codepen and put it in my site and it doesnt work, at all. Works perfectly on codepen, doesn't work on my site. As far as I can tell there really isn't a way of figuring out _why_ it isn't working either. There aren't any errors or anything, no real means of debugging it. I'm basically going through line-by-line the computed CSS for all the different parts and trying to see what's different and why that is impacting the look of the thing. Very frustrating.
The Faroe Islands have to be dependent on someone because they’re certainly not capable of defending themselves. That someone could be the EU if it had a credible collective military deterrent but it doesn’t and it’s not acquiring one any time soon.

Its predecessor regulation capped fines at around $750k. Guess how many were levied at or near the maximum? Zero. The only large fines were for serious, deliberate abuses, such as a group maintaining a secret blacklist of construction employees. This isn't like the massive fines from US regulators on foreign companies. The rules say that fines should be proportionate to the scale of the breach and the harm caused. The large fines are for serious, deliberate, repeat offenders. It's also to stop a company like Google deciding that they'd rather not comply, and treat a fine as a cost of business.
