Must be a web dev who adamantly uses VSCode for everything

I don't really use it a lot for programming. Whenever I'm writing some technical document and I find myself churning out some awkward sounding sentences (which happens a lot), I use ChatGPT to get some suggestions. I also find that ChatGPT gives better translations than Google Translate.

Not exactly a fan of Play Store policies, but for this situation, I'd say that Google gave ample time for developers to migrate to API 33, and all behavioral changes and API deprecations are documented (however annoying it is).

I get the author's sentiment. But speaking as an Android developer, we are forced to use newer APIs due to the following:

1. Deprecation - Google is notorious for deprecating APIs (it's a meme among Android devs) and we as developers are forced to move to using newer APIs

2. Google Play policies - From Google: "New apps must target Android 12 (API level 31) or higher; except for Wear OS apps, which must target Android 11 (API level 30) or higher."

3. Some APIs such as Jetpack Compose require a certain minimum SDK version (API 21). Therefore, if you want to use new APIs, you are forced to stop supporting old devices.

We wish we could continue supporting old devices but it's mostly out of app developers' hands.

You forgot to mention the bioweapons developed by Ukraine, and the Nazi super soldiers :)

There hasn't been a Skyking recorded since October 2019, see this last recorded Skyking transmission: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51ORIHrpgOU

So delving into the Iliad is communism now. You could benefit from some basic education

Count me in. For me, it looks clean, and have no problems differentiating tabs. It's odd that people have a fit over this--not saying that people aren't allowed to dislike the changes but the negative reaction just seems over the top.

Kinda not related but there was a thread about xyz domains: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28554400

First time hearing Pepe as a symbol of resistance. Saw it first as "Feels good man" before it turned into edgy alt-right symbol.

Partisan support for certain industries and business interests is not new. Are you also up in arms that extractive/energy industries lean Republican?

Victim mentality is being utilized aggressively nowadays.

> Currently, however, only one side's ideas are being banned; even if they don't call for violence, only if they "make people angry".

> With and estimated ~200 protestors entering the building, we've effectively silenced tens of millions in response.

Last time I checked, right-wing ideas haven't been banned from social media. Unless you're conflating those who hold extremist views and mainstream views under one category, which is a dangerous and counterproductive classification.
