Because that is the only valid date format, ever, everywhere. There are just too many of them in this graph.

Thanks. I wish the link could be created from the f-droid automatically. I’m too lazy to try to paste the parts together

The pro version of OsmAnd is free on fdroid!

Same in EU

I use Vespucci, it’s advanced but still pretty easy if you just want to do basic editing. https://vespucci.io/

P.s. how do you link to an app on fdroid?

But you can also just flag it if editing is not your cup of tea. Here’s a convenient, non-techy tool to add notes for others to use when editing: https://www.onosm.org/

Might be because I’ve been reporting all sponsored content as spam.

It’s even worse when you can tell they really tried and still end up with spaghetti. Even mid- to senior developers do this. Rhe more senior they claim to be are, the more embarrasing when you have to get the stick.

Some people try to be so clever with fancy design patterns or bit-tricks, instead of just solving the problem, you now have two problems and a solution to one of them.

It has similarities though, as pointed out in orher comments. For one, a user might be more careful with downvotes if they are afraid of negative consequences e.g. harassment. With piblic votes, there would therefore be a bias towards upvotes and and people abstaining from downvotes, i.e. less interaction in total.

Downvotes serve a purpose today, letting us quickly scan which comments are controversial or even harmful to the conversation. I, for one, usually sort most threads by votes and then skip the comments with many downvotes but for controversial topics, I instead seek out the comments that have both many upvotes and downvotes.

These would be harder to find given the above bias.

It’s actually the company’s problem. They usually opt to add more debt though, rather that wade through the old stuff.

In the end, all software sucks and should be replaced as soon as possible. Code quality is a lie we tell ourselves so that we can sometimes be proud of our work. It’s usually the code we are most proud of that is the worst. Design patterns everywhere making the vode overly convoluted and “future proof”. The only future proofing that happens is that no-one will understand it, so they won’t change it. Trying to design for the future usually makes it harder in the future.

That’s the usual open source way. The config probably came later so they just added the option without changing the default because that would break backward compatibility.

And there would be too much boring work to build a migration.

Bank holidays would be really awkward. You start wort at 23 and the next day is off so you would just have to work that one hour.

Office workers could probably move hours around. It would get complicated for shift workers though. Paying overtime for work on holidays?

I’m not French nut usually the price of transmission is omitted, netting in a positive cost for end consumers. If it was really negative, there would be businesses just burning energy to make money.

Battery business should be good in the future though.

To be fair, most of these apps were made before the notification categories were invented and they don’t keep the consultants that made the initial app, or want to pay for the change.

Exactly! All applications can be shit, not just web sites.

People screw up CLI’s all the time (looking at you Google Cloud). They (used to) insist on using my installed python which automatically upgrades and breaks the CLI. Good job python. Good job Gcloud.

Yes you should. I think most comments here are about products that have millions of users where it’s actually worthwhile spending all that extra time and money to perfect things.

For most development, it isn’t worthwhile and the best approach is to wing it, then return later to iterate, if need be.

The same goes for most craftsmanship, carpentry in particular. A great carpenter knows that no-one will see the details inside the walls or what’s up on the attic. Only spend the extra time where it actually matters.

It triggers me immensely when people say “I could have made a better job than that” about construction work. Sure maybe with twice the budget and thrice the time.

Backend dev. I have an ultrawide (like two monitors in one).

Sometimes I need to test the full stack and need a lot (8+) terminals. I try to tile them all on a separate virtual desktop.

Most commonly though, I center my main application and can have two smaller, peripheral applications, one on each side.

When doing full stack, I need a browser, IDE and two terminals, tiled to give more space for the browser.

102 times if you count the one before the code.
