You’re limited on UX when it comes to PWAs. For tools where this matters a lot, PWAs are a non-starter.

A pair of bicycle pedals. I regretted the purchase and returned them.

For the last case of a non-return, I got a refund on a wristband for my Fitbit, which had broken after very little use.

General purpose: Kebab case

But really, follow the conventions of what you’re working on. For example, I’d use pascal case when working on a Java/Kotlin project, and snake case when working on a Python project.

I don’t know if it matches your desire for easy install of small disk space, but it might make up for it in other arenas - Ruby is my new-found love when making simple scripts. Being able to mostly emulate the shell integration that bash has by just using backticks to call a shell command is the killer feature in my book.

• Video games: lifelong tech interest + it was what the other people in school were doing? I found that I like to compete as well
• Podcasts: monotonous tasks always really annoyed me as I was mentally understimulated. Listening to podcasts solved that particular issue, and now I can wash dishes and clean for days at a time
• Walking: I was overweight and wanted to change that, and I had trouble getting into running due to me finding it mind-numbingly boring. Just walking and walking a lot was very helpful in this regard. Combined with the aforementioned podcasts it was a winning combination
• Biking: I don’t own a car by choice, being able to get around more than just fine with transit where I live. During the pandemic while I was working from home, this became a challenge as I didn’t want to risk infection when going to buy food or other things. As such, I dusted off an old bicycle, and started using it to get around my local area. I quickly noticed that it was great fun to bike, despite having just a bog-standard terrible bike. I then changed jobs and wanted to go to the office more, and figured one day that I would try to combine my new-found interest in biking with my desire to be at the office by commuting by bike. It was a bit hard to justify time-wise as it was generally faster to go by transit, which motivated me to go faster every day to try to beat the transit alternative. As such, every day became two small races, and I fell in love. Cycling is way more fun than running and I have never been healthier than I am today, I believe.

While Rust would probably have been a good choice for implementing a new browser, I don’t think Swift deserves the criticism it’s getting in this thread:

• Swift was created by the same person who created Rust, and has many of the same nice traits
• Swift is a modern language that is easy for plenty of developers to pick up; I’d place it in the same family as Rust and Kotlin
• Swift grants access to a large pool of native iOS/Mac developers

It’s highly unlikely that this app even comes up on the radar insofar as competing with Google Maps.

The answer is probably more mundane - an automated system made an incorrect call. It keeps happening when it comes to these Play Store app reviews.

Healthcare is pretty rough, I’d be willing to bet that the grass actually is greener in this case.

A service I use at work had an outage, but it made little difference to me.

Circumstances today say no, but I would definitely consider it in the short-term, like maybe next year or so.

I basically already do it with Futurama, to the great confusion of everyone around me.

• One professional-private (which is an alias to my private one)
• One work email

There are a few reasons for this, some of the most important being:

• The languages were not designed with speed primarily in mind and as such made some design decisions that fundamentally cannot be optimized around
• Authors of programs in these languages prioritize things other than performance when writing the programs.

Speed is not just about processors becoming faster - this is a large part of why DSA is important to learn as a programmer.

An anecdote fully lacking in relevance on account of there being larger cities than Los Angeles which do not at all have the same problems efficiently moving their populations where they need to go.

It’s all about the transportation infrastructure.

For the sophisticated sparkling beverage connoisseur.

My most McGyvered solution to create a bootable USB was to take a really old Android phone and make it into one. Worked surprisingly well, actually.

A vibe

No need to deal with aggressively incompetent management when planting potatoes.

Sure, but why would this lead to a decrease in power consumption? I’m not sure that follows.

Finally all that power won’t be wasted waiting for a single app download to finish and install.

Wait, what do you mean by this?
