You don't need to limit yourself, just provide usable fallbacks. Most of the time, these missing features aren't critical to your app, so just disable them when not supported. What browser you use isn't a good indicator anyways, as a features are added often and various settings/extensions/policies can disable or cripple features even in browsers that normally support them.

I'd personally start from answering the question: "How does this directly affect me?". I'd ignore the feel of someone being wrong and try to understand the direct impact -- how much do you believe you miss out. Then act based on it.

It's their job. Yours is to communicate an issue to them, theirs is to see how to resolve it (if at all).
If people want to leave your country, it makes more sense to make them want to stay rather than force them to stay. Besides, in the end, emigration is good for India. Indeed one of the things that India wants from the UK for a trade deal is relaxed visa rules.
The fake consternation and lament over Twitter has been tiring. Really, most of the world does not care.
There’s a phrase I heard in the military: “treat him like a child and he’ll act like a child, treat him like an adult and he’ll act like an adult.”

You saw this from time to time where a soldier would just fuck up everything. Their “boss” would start treating them like a child, never trusting them to do something right, always watching them like a hawk, etc. Unlike the civilian world, you can’t just fire someone, so there was quite a bit of shared experience in handling these types of situations. Eventually someone would notice and tell the “boss” that phrase. The “boss” would force themselves to trust the person, to let them make their own mistakes just like an adult. The “trouble-child” would miraculously start performing so much better in 99% of cases. It was like magic.

I’ve been on both sides of that coin in my short 5 years in the military, but I see it from time to time in the tech world too. Unless there’s someone around who knows how to fix it, it will spiral out of control like you saw.
And I'm finally going to try Twitter!
They are lacking implementations though and they are more about programming things than writing your config in them. Sure, you can put config in code, but that sounds like a terrible idea for non-DSLs.

I understand that, but I wasn't talking about the value of the airbags, I was asking about the procedure to replace them, if (invented numbers) there are 1500 people working on this replacement, it takes 200 hours to replace 300,000 airbags, which is a bit more than one full month time, which means that on average some 300,000 cars would be stopped for 15 days.

Most other recalls I have read about tend to be of the kind "there is no hurry, you can continue using the car normally, you will be contacted by the dealer and at first occasion we will replace component X", this one, according to the article is "stop the vehicle now".
same for Twitter...
it's nice you find it cheap, because i find it very very expensive.
Disagreed. Example: Numi.app and Soulver3.app = both are essentially just fancy calculators with built-in unit conversions and a few other convenient features. I use them maybe once a month, but €30 for a lifetime license with no subscription is more than ok for what they are.
Do you remember a popular QT app that would turn a row of elements into a column of elements when shrinking a window, though ?

Was it also common to make sure your Qt app was working fine on the small portrait resolution of the mobile computers that were going to be invented any decade now ?

Flex is a layout system (a fairly good one, that I wish had existed on the web since the start. Rows, columns, wrap. Good.)

; responsive is a design considération (what do I as a human being decide should be visible when the screen is just too small to show everything.)

My claim is that "responsive" as a design issue is deeply linked to mobile computers, so it's not a surprise that it was not a big conxern before.

There are more important things happening on twitter than preening to the crowds. It's easy to dismiss if you don't find utility in it yourself, of course, but many people clearly find it very useful. Twitter is a very simple tool - it's what you make of it. That can be preening or organising revolutions or anything in between.

Nothing to do with the interface - only java.util.RandomAccess guarantees O(1). Iterations using get(int) is a mistake regardless, stick to the java.util.iterator or ListIterator it you need the index.

The main issue w/ the LinkedList is its memory footprint (aside being LinkedList w/ an indirection on each access), along with the increased GC costs (the GC has to iterate the nodes too, cache misses - gc pauses), even half empty ArrayList is more memory friendly than any LinkedList. ArrayDeque offers 'adds' at the both ends, if you wish to use LinkedList as a queue.
This is so true for instance mathematica's treatment on numerical integration is the most complete I have seen out there so many methods that work on very minute and specific type of functions, this is even more so when you're working with functions that have singularities in them, and therefore need to be treated piecewisely, or functions that are highly oscillating.

Looking at js/lil.js I first thought it was a minified file, then realized it’s probably not optimized to save bytes, but to save pixels on the screen, to fit more of the code at a glance. I find it surprisingly appealing and feel a little sad thinking that this style of formatting wouldn’t pass code review anywhere.

From an engineering standpoint traffic is really easy to fix. Just build more roads with as much “flow” as possible (tunnels). But it doesn’t work because traffic is a human problem, not a technical problem.

Ok, wait, do I really understand this right?

and

https://inrupt.com/products/enterprise-solid-server

let me conclude that the new, more decentralized, more privacy respecting vision of a future internet is based on an "enterprise" server with no open source code and to use it I need an "entitlement token" sold by one single company?

To login to Inrupt’s private Docker registry and download the ESS Docker images, your enterprise needs to obtain an entitlement token from Inrupt.

I really hope my conclusions are very wrong, because, you know, it reads like a satire.

Mr. Barners-Lee is selling tokens for the next generation freedom internet and talking about why the other guys selling tokens for the next generation freedom internet are bad?

Please, correct me, this must be wrong.
What do you think the shareholders of a typical public company look like?

I think you’ll find a small percentage owned by rich private individuals/family offices, some owned by private investors like insurance companies, and the rest held by pension funds or mutual funds which look like big shares on paper but don’t really exercise control and correspond to lots of tiny holdings by people who range from poor to ordinary to a small number of quite wealthy people.

That is, I think the usual answer to “who are the shareholders of this public company?” is “ordinary people through their pensions or investment accounts, skewing a little bit older and richer”. Some companies have a relatively large stake owned by some private person or fund, and others have a big share owned by their original founders or their families, but in that case those people would be named instead of just saying ‘shareholders’.
> This board is hilarious in thinking that the package musk is offering is in any way ‘cruel’.

So much agree. The attitudes here are just laughable. The drama, entitlement, the faux "empathy", violins, crocodile cry me a river tears.

The factory worker or janitor working hard doing honest work and struggling to put food on their table get my sympathy, not these tech workers with cushy jobs in the top percentile of wages.

I'm one of these btw and am very thankful and I don't feel I'm entitled to it. I've been laid off. And you know what I did? I got another tech job. Barring special circumstances, it is that simple.
> I don't want to be the asshole to ask people to speak in English, or make my manager be that guy either.

Well what do you want?

Mandarin lessons for yourself?

English lessons offered to your colleague?

To be moved to another team?

Or do you just want a way to make everyone speak English without people thinking you are “an asshole”?

You can talk to your manager about your feelings and what you want to happen, they will do something — maybe it’ll even be what you want, but they also might try to convince you this isn’t worth worrying about because you can’t be included in everything anyway.

Having some ideas of what you want to happen as opposed to simply the final state of things can prepare you to think about your actions and reactions affect others.
You make it sound like the role of an accessibility team is to be the valve that prevents the floodgates of inaccessibility opening. That's one hell of an expensive valve.

Or that whatever the team has built up until this point, won't function unless they're in the office?

At this point, many opinions about Twitter are ranging from invalid to pathetic whinging. Twitter is still Twitter, and not everybody there got fired. I think it will get better after dust settles.
that's exactly elons problem now. every unpopular action will be pinned on him personally.

The Bible is a very specific version of a creator that the world already gives you enough evidence to disprove ten times. You could argue that the possibility of the Bible being divine is not zero, but it’s less than any epsilons people care about. The reason it endures are cultural, which is clear from its correlations with geography and demographics.
Jumping ship because of X at this point is just ideological flexing, we have zero indication how this will play out yet.
the mac link on the zeal homepage actually also links to dash
It’s better to say I think the authors should have thought about X rather the author is a moron and incompetent for not doing X. You can still say it by critiquing the actions not the character of the person. Similar rules exist in the Houses of parliament around accusations of lying simply because everyone would decend into that as a method of argument. It’s harder to call people out but still possible in my opinion.
It most likely needs a smaller team than they used to have, but some dedicated employees are necessary.

Accessibility should be part of every design team. Any new features being developed need accessibility input. This includes all the different mobile apps and integrations with native accessible platforms and accessibility tools. It also needs full internationalisation and language support too, which increases complexity. It needs a few more people than just ticking boxes or building workarounds or ramps after a feature has been developed.

Additionally, Twitter also takes in external links from webpages and so can influence the meta markup of these via their API / open graph / social sharing. So it works on the wider web accessibility standards too.

I imagine bootstrap and all the other libraries twitter publishes are also part of the teams remit.
I think the motivation behind compostable plastic is to reduce the amount of micro plastics ending up in the environment rather than CO2 emissions.

That said, burning non-compostable plastic (with appropriate emissions control) does seem like an appropriate way of disposing of it, and generating some energy in the process.
I don't see a problem with this, except being born into an ideology. Most people these days have chosen one and cultivated it according to their life. I think my ideology is good, if it wasn't I would change it to be the good version. So why would I not work with someone who shares mine? Billionaire or not.
Chaos? I haven't been subject to any on Twitter lately. Actually it seems it finally stopped forcing me to signup? That alone is a great improvement.
You underestimate how hard the problem is. Things that in other fields would be minor typographical differences are often semantically meaningful in traditional math notation. Formula OCR would need to distinguish chi from x, lowercase delta from o with an overbar, a dot-product dot from a dot intended as multiplication, parentheses from brackets, v from the or sign. It needs to be able to determine whether your fraction "a / b / c" (by / I mean horizontal lines) was intended as "a / (b / c)" or "(a / b) / c" from the size of your letters, or from the relative widths of the fraction lines.

Of course, anything a human can do, ML can learn to do eventually. Which invites the question: is reading arbitrary hand-written math actually something any human can do?
So now when the government hacks your website it's called - "scanning for vulnerabilities".

Making sure everything works on all platforms is often just as hard or harder than making sure it works on all browsers and due to basically non-existent security on desktop operating systems, downloading apps comes with a lot of risk.

What we need is a new app runtime with a unified permission-based API across platforms. All the OS-agnostic parts of that runtime would be a huge pain to develop, so all platforms would probably settle on a shared open source implementation and only implement OS-specific "adapters" for the native stuff.

What I've done there, is reinvented Electron...fuck....
Maybe the employees on the accessibility team were all useless and hated by the whole org? Maybe starting fresh with real accessibility experts is a better way forward?

Counterpoint - learning Chinese as an adult who natively speaks English is incredibly hard. If you don't have enough motivation, it is a tedious slog that takes at least a thousand hours of work. I don't think "talking to coworkers" is enough motivation.
I must've set it up wrong. My Twitter home page is filled with posts that I don't care from people I don't watch, Twitter repeatedly recycles and then pushes those content to me because it thinks I'll be interested. How arrogant.

In my case, Twitter already has an algorithmic timeline.

Now I read my daily news update from few subscribed newsletters, websites as well as r/worldnews. These are far better sources of information than Twitter.

Don't get me wrong, other platforms that I enjoy such as YouTube and Reddit also has algorithmic timeline, but I've never seen such bad implementation before straight to the level of annoying and begging for uninstall.
Check out sociocracy. There is overhead cost to operating this way though.

It's firmly in the realm of incidental complexity, viz. solving problems you wouldn't have in the first place if dynamic shared object loading, ld.so, and glibc would do their job or pointless Linux distro diversity wouldn't exist and/or static linking be used instead.

Just talk to them. In English.

I've worked in a multi-language business for many years where I did not speak all the languages, and there are two points I think you need to take to heart

1. No one can guess what you're feeling/thinking, you need to tell them

2. Don't take it personally if people are doing what comes naturally to them

Your comment on benefit of the office is understood, but misguided; your colleagues don't have an obligation to speak a specific language to you and make you feel better, that's not their job. I am not trying to be harsh, but you need to understand that your personal desire and comfort is not their responsibility. If they aren't being hostile to you or any other workplace violation, they're not doing anything wrong.

My guess is you feel left out because you _don't know_ whether you're left out or not. Even if they talk about your project in Mandarin, can you be 100% sure it's something relevant to you? Or even really about the project? Can you be certain that one of your colleagues wasn't just talking about how stressed they are about something and just wanted to vent? I'm not sure you can know this unless you ask them or learn the language, and in fact, both will help you feel a bit more included.

Overall, just talk with the colleagues in a private way and just mention your feelings and how you really want to join the conversations with them on the project but cannot if they converse in Mandarin; after that it's up to them.

For yourself, understand that you don't need to be part of every conversation and your colleagues don't have an obligation to you or the company to hold every conversation in English. The steps you can take are to just calmly tell that you want to join the conversations about the project (or others), and also learn some Mandarin. It's honestly not _that_ hard to pick up languages at least at a rudimentary level. Probably you will sound funny at first, but everyone does with a new language. Use it as an icebreaker to get in and just own it, and soon you will all find a middlepoinn that works for you.
It's one thing to use a medium that is being abused by malicious actors; it's another to be on a medium that suffers constant drama fostered by an owner and CEO who spends his days vocalizing an imprecise understanding of civil rights and his contempt for his customers.
Have you ever actually looked at their website? You need to use a 3rd-party service like nitter to make twitter accessible.

It really feels like people have never used twitter and are reading the news and go "aha! they've canned the accessibility team! they're trying to exclude the blind!"
You call it fault. Amazon would call it strategy.

From the article:

1) 193 weeks (18 Feb 1968 - 31 Oct 1971)

In 1968 Harold Wilson's government decreed that Britain would shift to permament GMT+1 by not switching the clocks back an hour in October. Technically this was British Standard Time, not British Summer Time, as there was no intention to return to seasonal time adjustments. This change increased evening daylight throughout the winter months (which was popular) but also delayed sunrise (which was not, especially in Scotland). Statistics showed that road accidents decreased in the evening more than they increased in the morning, which was good, but this couldn't be pinned down solely to the time change. Ultimately permanent BST proved unpopular enough that Parliament voted to end it by 366 votes to 81, a fairly convincing rebuttal, and the annual switcheroo has continued ever since.
I think we would have to wait and see how far they're willing to go. If intel releases a high quality process design kit, or even develops their own handholding consulting experience, I don't see why it couldn't work.

Twitter just followed what everyone else was doing, and not even correctly, they had to have their own way.

FB was among the first social sites crawling the links and creating a thumbnail with crucial info. When OG tags were introduced (by them nonetheless!), FB started honoring them. Twitter some year later finally decided to do the card thing and thought that skipping OG and having their own syntax under meta would be best way.
That is indeed what I meant; with very little effort and not having much knowledge about database internals, you can save a ton of money. It won’t be perfect that way, but goes a long way vs no indices at all. So that’s why ‘no reason’. Aka very low hanging fruit.

Sorry for not being clear and thanks for explaining.
