Yes I've seen a few people experience this hell as well. To just call it a UI abstraction is completely detached from reality and how it's implemented.

You actually can pilot a plane without a license after some instruction and passing a medical exam. The main thing getting a license changes is the ability to fly others.

Re:Stripe records user movements on its customers' websites
on Tuesday April 21, 2020 @03:21PM (#22938402)
A user shouldn't have to email a cofounder to get in touch with a team member. The last time I integrated stripe on a site as a final test before it went live I had my cousin make a purchase and the site got flag as potential money laundering because we had the same last name. At the time literally zero customer service. It took 8 years before stripe started doing any customer support. Cool launch pages but personally I'll never use stripe again

In my experience it's the opposite of democratizing. The company has been around for 8 years, and it was only 3 months ago they added phone support.
Re:Over $109bn wiped off Facebook's market cap after growth shock
on Thursday July 26, 2018 @12:56PM (#17618923)
None of the drops in that chart are even remotely comparable. Even the local maximum to the 52 week low over the course of months is smaller so hardly "way more". Its the largest drop in market cap in a single day ever, so its pretty uncharted territory whether a company can recover or not.

I too quit around then, and I think I feel that most on my birthday. I only hear from probably a tenth the people but now when they remember on their own and text/call it means a lot more.

Not only do I think its true of all social media, I think it's less true of Snapchat because the medium has less of a memory.
What social media do people think is more candid?

This is a bit different but in PyCharm you can set a breakpoint and then in the debugger open up a window where you can evaluate arbitrary expressions with that context before continuing.
