• Mostly on phones: On/Off settings that have vague names and no description at all. I don’t know what is Multi Layered Scrolling is and I’m not going to research it. It stays off until it is explained right where the setting is.

Websites and apps: I HATE a confirmation menu that has a “OK” and “Cancel” type buttons where the one they want you to click is bigger, more emphasized, better colored and attractive than the other. This is common when you want to quit a game - the “Actually no I want to keep playing” button is usually highlighted and bigger while the quit button is ugly, in red, in the corner.

Plot twist: it was a 7 Boom game.

My wife and I decided we’ll only have one streaming service at a time. Currently it’s Disney Plus. We recently stopped Disney Plus in favor of Netflix due to the One Piece live action series. After it was done, we stopped Netflix and took Disney Plus again.

We don’t have that much time to watch stuff anyway, so we figured we might be focusing on just a single library.

That’s true but it isn’t mutually exclusive.

Oh yeah, I heard it was poorly recieved. The syntax wasn’t great and generally the support sucked. AFAIK there is no progress on types for lua.

I wish, that sounds amazing.

Have you heard of Typescript-to-lua? I used to do Dota modding (which is in lua) with TSTL and it works great!

You write TS code (using Typescript syntax that includes types) and it is compiled into lua.

Wonder if that could be an alternative that can work for you.

My parents (who are 70 and 71) have their mindset too. I disagree with that “I don’t work here” argument - who said scanning items HAS to be something that only a cashier does? Why is it considered work compared to something like choosing and weighing vegetables, which is something no one ever expects a worker to do for them nowadays?

For me, the merit of those self checkout stations is that you can do this easy thing (scanning items) yourself. I don’t need someone to scan items for me. It was the only thing that I still wasn’t allowed to do by myself, and I’m glad it eliminated having to interact with cashiers. All I need the place to do is stock up items and make sure the place is clean.

I’m with you man. I love just listening to music while I scan my items and going away. Entire shopping process without interacting with anyone at all. Amazing.

Where I live they work just fine. Sounds like your problem is that your supermarket bought terribly made self checkout machines that keep failing.

Why? Do you also want to be paid for taking products off the shelves or choosing the good vegetables?

This is just how the place works and you are not entitled to anything just because it does things a certain way. You can keep going to the regular cashier lane if you don’t like “doing work for the company”.

I’m not sure I agree. Why does it matter if it is 10 items or 30? I do the same work as a cashier, albeit understandably at a slower pace.

Sounds like the issue for you is that the self checkouts keep failing for random reasons and stalling the lines - in which case you’re trying to minimize the symptom instead of demanding them to make the self checkouts work and have the monitoring person be properly trained to handle issues if they do arise.

Where I live they are usually working fine and the line is a few people at best, even if they have a ton of items to scan.

I don’t think the discussion is choosing between not working AT ALL and working there.

It is more about would you work at a good place that has good people and decent pay, or Meta.

I love the notion that you get notified for being hacked, and that you have anti-hacking counter measures that need to be manually activated to take effect.

I saw that one. I always stopped the frame to look at the code. It never disappointed.

Hacking scenes in shows and movies were always my favorite because of how hilarious they are.

We thought you would love to throw money at us!

Honestly I don’t see most of the indie companies keep working with Unity unless they have no choice. Even if they roll it back, who’s to say that they won’t do that again next year?

The fact that they count you retroactively for eligibility means they want to try and rake as much money as possible.

He should’ve at least looked at the code and tested it before sending it to you. Ugh. Hate doing assignments with people who do the bare minimum and just waste your time.

We’ve been instructed to use ChatGPT generically. Meaning, you ask it generic questions that have generic usage, like setting up a route in Express. Even if there is something more specific to my company, it almost always can be transformed into something more generic, like “I have a SQL DB with users in it, some users may have the ‘age’ field, I want to find users that have their age above 30” where age is actually something completely different (but still a number).

Just need to work carefully on ChatGPT.

Not gonna lie, I miss the “would of” bot that corrects people. Some people would actually get pissed off and swear at the bot, not realizing they’re just showing how stupid they are for everyone to see.
