Traditional routing has always been very, very open. Like a club where anyone is welcome and if new folks mess stuff up it just gets fixed.
Several IRRs used to allow RPSL changes by email to their systems with only maintainer auth and no verification of route ownership (e.g. you register with the IRR, then publish Google routes).
It’s all getting hardened nowadays with things like no more email, layers of verification, RPKI, etc.
It’s not necessarily what folks want but how this stuff had traditionally been handled. Thankfully it’s all changing because of events like this.
Could be an editor, monitor, chair, etc. It might not seem like some of those little things matter -- if I can sit in the chair, it works for me! -- but they do to some and typography is one of those things.
I don't understand folks who don't understand this. I get it if you don't personally care about typography but every developer is making QOL decisions.
Not saying anything in here is good/bad/other but you rarely see this level of flagged and down-voted comments in a HN thread.
I wonder how streamers would feel having to change their names from something like "ProGamerTTV" to "ProGramerAG" or if it would even happen/matter.
Just because it looks like magic, doesn't mean there isn't someone pulling some strings somewhere else to aid the illusion.
That said, if you're using the service desk stuff from Jira I might stay with it. I understand the pain of having to administer Jira and how it creates project-specific EVERYTHING on the backend (workflows, et al.) but it's great for end users and it's super flexible.
When you need to handle an almost unlimited range of screen sizes having your visual system able to handle a little math is critical.
2: Pick a few colors you like, and a few in your industry.
3: Pick a few fonts you like, and a few in your industry.
4: Find icons/shapes related to your business (google images: "[business type] icon" as a start, then branch from there based on what you find).
5: Mash it all together as many different ways a possible.
6: See what you like/dislike. Repeat as needed.
That's it, that's the secret. Get stuff you like and stuff that works and mash it together to see what happens. Then take your mash-ups and keep mashing and playing until you find something that fits. You don't have to love it, just get something that works. A lot of folks don't like their branding initially.
What designers won't tell you is that the process is sometimes just brute-forcing creativity and that's totally okay. You can't always feel inspired or have that "one perfect idea" and you've still gotta get stuff done.
I'm all for keeping old things around and that includes Flash stuff (look at my user name). But Shumway is super dead.
I believe there are more active projects going you might want to check out if you're looking to keep Flash alive/around.

1) Why are all buildings the same? Light switches are often in similar places and the space between the floor and ceiling is pretty standard.
2) Why are all vehicles the same? Mirrors are always in the same spots and seat belts all work the same.
3) Why are all laptops the same? Keyboard center on the bottom with a trackpad or nub near the center. Screen on top, ports and stuff on the sides.
There are components that are common in all facets of our lives that when different can cause problems or surprise which could be good or bad. We need to join two floors of a building. Use stairs! People understand stairs. We need to showcase a collection of clickable images. Use a grid! People understand link grids.
If you want to make your website usable you have to lean on expectations and those are pretty well defined nowadays. Imagine walking into a room and turning on the lights using a switch in the middle of the floor or plugging in your laptop's power cord at the top/back of the screen.
Most companies spending money on a website want them to feel fresh and creative and engaging but they also have to temper that with usability and expectations. That's why all websites "look the same" or at least why the author thinks they do.
Just because certain elements are in the same spot(s) or behave similarly doesn't mean things are the same. Or, at least, to me they aren't.
Why do you feel the need to make sweeping generalizations about the author and the author's work? Just shitting on someone/something for the sake of it?
That said, can't wait for this to come out of beta!

I believe he's mentioned in the book the article is excerpting, "We Are the Nerds".
Didn't realize until I gave a mechanical board a chance (felt super weird hitting full-height keys!) but I was making a ton of typos and going slower on the Mac boards.
Now that I've gotten used to my mechanical keyboard I feel more confident in my touch typing and my speed has gone up considerably.
I did install dampener rings, though, because I didn't like how loud things were and how the keys felt.
I'm not clear on what you're saying. It sounds like you're saying today it's absolutely something you should use but you don't want to force it?
I also wish it wasn't essentially a flat price for everything. A small, medium or large anything is generally just fifty cents to a dollar away from any other size. I want a small soda and popcorn I get pressed to size-up for that extra few cents to get a gallon/barrel of each.
I would absolutely recommend Logwatch or, if you're fancy, Filebeat and Logstash.
A comma in most condensed sans serif collections like those used for nutrition labels (Helvetica, Univers, et al.) takes up less space and is more readable than a bullet or other glyph.
Here's a quick example using Roboto Condensed and the ingredients for Fruit Loops. The bullets are longer or harder to read. (Using Roboto Condensed because it's free so others can test with it and it's comparable to Helvetica/Univers).

I know I'm on HN but everyone responding is taking a tone like the creator said, "this is the best way to do it and everyone should use this in production" while on the page it only says they built it because they could -- because CSS has evolved to support it.
Dropping low-margin products/services could mean companies stop making small websites or apps for local companies. Keeping organized could mean making sure AWS assets are tagged and tracked or that all code is version-controlled with proper branches and deployments. Knowing the numbers could mean being able to say at any given point in time how your revenue stacks up against your costs (again maybe with AWS). Keeping things clean could mean consistent file organization, tidy personal machines or servers without stray SSH keys or software.
I definitely feel like whenever I watch shows like The Profit or Restaurant Impossible I learn the same lessons: personal issues manifest and destroy, keep an eye on margins, don't be afraid to manage, keep things tidy.
Oftentimes in the US it is less about a busy defense attourney and more about the prosecution offering a plea deal to skip trial. I can't say with any certainty why this is done but I believe it's due to overcrowding in courts and jails.
Many attourneys will suggest the defendant accept the plea deal because it's a sure thing. It's a lighter sentence than if the defendant went to court and when a case goes to court -- especially a jury trial -- it is impossible to say how it will turn out and it could end up far worse for the defendant when compared to the plea deal.
