What is your solution to this problem?

They are not evaluating human beings though.
They evaluate a textual representation of a human being’s work experience.
Not that I agree with this AI approach but when hiring, the real test begins after this initial hurdle

Re:Cate v1.0 is out: The Infinite canvas workspace for developers

Cool project!
I've been playing around with a couple of different implementations of an infinite canvas.
One of the reasons why I did not go with an HTML based approach is because the XY translation gets really laggy with a couple dozen items.
Is that something you thought about and accounted for?

Refering to football as foot egg when it’s actually a ball as opposed to the hand egg in the US is weird to me.
OT: La Liga shouldn’t have this kind of power and it’s good to see the court take a stance

I can imagine that the process of fabrication relies on tweaking a tremendous amount of parameters.

Do you refer to the LOTR trilogy as The Hobbit's older brother here? I was under the impression that The Hobbit was the first book in this saga?

There are countless posts on HN that describe people and businesses being blocked by a cloud provider like GCP.

To me, blaming an activity which requires active participation for “brain-drain” is such a weird and quite dated thing.
Take social media for example, these require no active participation other than moving your thumb up and down, and is in my opinion the real brain rot these days.
People will always find a way to get their dopamine, be it video games, reading, watching stuff, etc.
Don’t pick out a single thing and make it the boogey man.

For a lot of people, work happiness is also a big factor, as it should. You’re spending at least 1/3rd of your whole day at your work.

I agree. I liked the idea but seeing an ideal number just puts pressure on something that shouldn't be.
Maybe create a casual/competitive toggle?
Anyways good job OP :)

Re:Python is Actually Portable

I think what is happening here is that the python interpreter can be used as an executable. This way you don't have to install python on the host machine and can carry your programs on a USB stick for example.
Correct me if I'm wrong

I'm happy we don't let the building/access of infrastructure to companies only and instead let them work something out with the government/EU. In a country where space is not abundant, it would be hell to search through multiple proprietary stations to find the right charger.

The domains you listed are not really disproving my point.
I'm certain that programs could be made in JavaScript for these domains but, like I said in my first comment, it's probably a bad fit.
For example: Espruino is a platform for embedded JavaScript.
I just think about it this way: Just because you wouldn't doesn't mean you couldn't
Re:iOS 15 Humane

I recently switched from Android to iOS and it irritates me that Apple push their own product multiple times a week. It might be because my account is new but at least once a week I get notifications of the free year of apple tv and apple arcade without any way to disable this (if you guys know of one please respond)
Besides the notifications I think it's a dark pattern from Apple to actually show a red number badge above the settings app when there is no actionable item except the two things mentioned above.

I would say it is.
It didn't start as one but over the decades it sure has become a general purpose language.
I can't find a domain where JS wouldn't fit the description. While it may be a bad fit for certain problems, it can still be done.
