For the umphteenth time.

Go, be a socialist. Africa is waiting. 99.9% of people visiting this website is orders of magnitude more wealthy than average african citizen.

Eat the rich? You people are the rich. Set an example. Lead the way. Be the first communist to actually practice what they preach.

Oh they want to, the just fail every time there's a chance to do so.

What does this have to do with America or software engineers?

> christian morality

Give me a break.

Try Rawtherapee

Religion is society worshipping itself

Fuck russia and fuck its literature

I would hope covid-adjacent 'discourse' provided ample proof of the need to teach people statistics in school.

Naivety of people in software development is something else. Billion dollar corporation hired 10 token nonbinary people and people just forgot, if they ever knew the history.

Oh my god javascript people are at it again.

Ah yes, what better time to admire russian culture?

Howdoes figma contribute to laggy UI of the end product?

Cargo cult happened. 99% of 'improvements' and 'revolutionary new ideas' are hype and horseshit logic.

Platform engineering is the new SRE. Which was a new devops. Which was a new sysadmin. This time it's all going to be different, tho /s

I never understood what makes a cultivar different from a species.

99% of us are intervieved by HR and a dev. This sounds like a question for a CEO or head of product.

Exactly. Marshall Major headphones I bought some tears ago looked and were priced in a way I thought would guarantee decade of service at least. They fell apart in half a year revealing multiple fundamental design flaws.

Don't give fronyent people ideas.

Backend bubble as opposed to what? JS apps that require 6 gigabybes to render some text?

> remember "HIGs"

Most UX people don't know what that even is.

Also, people working for facebook are seriously trying to complain about morality. Lmao.

I wish accessibility included cognitive overload exhaustion. I am fucking tired of everything changing all the time for no reason whatsoever.

Many here recall 90ies interfaces and lament thier disappearance. Answer seems obvious to me. Of all UX people I have spoken to, not a single one shared that appreciation. Or any interest in technology. But all of them worship Steve Jobs, Apple and such. It's a culture thing. Now a toxic culture eats their own proponents.

I'd be very curious to read your rant

Lmao, coming from gimp that's rich.

JSX is shittiest shit since the invention of shit

You should not buy just in case anyone at Ableton is watching, I'm buying the fuck out of your offering the day it has linux support.

There's something about open source UI apps that just screams amateurs. It's actually a fascinating topic, I wish I could put a finger on it and tell specifically what I don't like. Inkscape just feels and looks... slightly off.

Eh, I don't know. I think that existence of crossword/todolist GTK apps is not nearly as much of a win as GIMP, Inkscape, Krita, KiCAD, FreeCAD and Scribd becoming actually competitive would have. It's indicative that biggest OSS app success, Blender, is not using OSS graphics library but rolls it's own UI. Rawtherapee, very highly regarded RAW file editor uses Qt. There's no decent looking mp3 player on Linux for heaven's sake! Every one that exists looks like shit or has zero functionality.

I didn't try to codify a few little ideas I had into Linux UI apps purely because all the drama with Gnome and whatnot. I don't have time for this bullshit. Terminal apps can be written once and just work(tm). Linux GUI development has always been for people that have no life.
