While pair programming I will say something like "just click on it with your mmb" and I always hear "what's that do?" I have yet to work with a single developer that uses the mmb. I live and die by mine. This doesn't include the "I don't have a MMB" Mac club.
It is quite handy as a clipboard in Linux distros.
That said, I learned the hard way the switches put for MMB are often subpar and fail quite fast. I replaced an Omron (?) switch in a Logitech mouse... twice. Thankfully the current Corsair M55 (pretty basic wired gamer mouse) goes strong.
I have used JetBrains products for a decade (IntelliJ, Android Studio, WebStorm, PHPStorm). Does this mean that those products are having resources shifted away from them to work on Fleet? I am not a developer who enjoys the 'plugin' mindset and tend to install very few. I prefer Visual Studios over VSCode as well...
"You could build a very complex UI with Ext.JS back in 2010 with a lot less code and very little time" I have not encountered a more complex and verbose library than ExtJS. I would never in a million years say "very little time" with ExtJS. I did not enjoy my time with it at all. And that was a whole lot of time, since it took forever to do the simplest of things.
I've always wanted to get into sewing my own clothes, but the fact that fabric is very expensive has always kept me out of it. It is a lot cheaper to buy pre-made clothing than to make your own. Even if you buy existing fabric from 2nd hand stores and turn it into your own project, it still can be cheaper to just buy pre-made clothing.
Oh how I love this collection. I have had it on my phone for many years.. I struggle with vasovagal syncope when I go to anyplace related to medical. Mixing my syncope with cancer/chemo was rough and this puzzle collection helped me in some of the hardest times of my life. I love Tents, Undead, Unequal, and Map.
I have an XP-Pen 22 from 5+ years ago. It is still going strong. It was ~$500 back then and I opted to get the one that had buttons on the side. My primary OS was Ubuntu, and the XP-Pen 22 did not have drivers for the buttons in Linux. The tablet and drawing was spectacular, but I paid extra for the buttons. So I ended up dual booting with Windows, to get the buttons to work. The exact model after mine had Linux support for buttons. I was just a year too early. The only other complaint I have is that even in Windows, I cannot get it to dual screen no matter what. The tablet and my other monitors will split the view, but I cannot get the inputs to recognize just the screen my tablet is on. If I put my pen to the tablet, the cursor will shoot way over as if all the monitors are 'one giant screen'. I have to think they have improved on this and for the money saved, I will buy another XP-Pen someday. I am an amateur artist and a strong software developer(not designer). So, you have to take my review with a grain of engineering salt. To me, Wacom is a solid brand for professionals. However, they make me think of macs with their pricing..
I had no clue what you were referencing. I'm using Brave, and I have it automatically turn on the 'Speedreader' mode. When I disabled it, I then saw what you are referencing. I know the other browsers also have a mode that gets rid of all the junk and lets you just read the articles. Maybe you should give that a try?
Please excuse my ignorance, can you explain how I'm supposed to read those? Top-to bottom first? I studied the pizza one and onion rings and while I could create the items from the format, I feel as though I don't fully understand it.
I'd say those tabulated views at the bottom of each recipe page should be read like this:
1. Read and do all the "full-width" items at the top first as preparation
2. The remaining items in the tabulated recipe should be read as a combination dependency graph and Gantt chart. E.g. mashing ripe bananas can be done in parallel with melting the butter and beating the eggs, but all three must be completed in order to move onto the step of "mashing until smooth" all those ingredients together with the vanilla extract ingredient. This way of reading is more of a "left to right" approach.
Is this a common thing? I initially feel outraged against Google for their practices, but then I see a comment about how this is just regurgitated news. Now I don't know whether to feel annoyed at a site that just regurgitates other site content or what. Then I start thinking about how the majority of news sites regurgitate AP/other journalists. Bad Google. Bad Wheelsjoint. Who am I supposed to feel sorry for at this point? Us, the consumers? https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-08-19/toyota-cu...
You can make up a kind of hierarchy of 'content aggregation' at the top of which is stuff like actually licensing the content or providing additional analysis and commentary, always with attribution. At the bottom would be things like straight up copypasting content stripped of attribution or slightly rewording it, again without attribution and effectively claiming it as your own.
This looks like a case of one bottomfeeder attacking another bottomfeeder by means of Google's shoddy DMCA handling. I find it hard to pick out heroes or even sympathetic victims in this as well.

These two issues developed independently.
One issue is that the site carries the (ostensibly low quality) content that Google rewards with search rankings.
The other is that Youtube/Google embraces copyright enforcement that heavily favors legacy copyright interests - and that enabled ContentID to become an easily/safely wielded instrument of censorship and abuse (a scenario the tech community repeatedly warned us about).
