Oh I actually missed the part where he already said her parents are cool with it, in that case I would trust my son and not call her parents.

Fair point, I misspoke / don't actually think that it's wild, I was being dramatic.

Have you tried using VSCode / VSCodium? I've tried using a VIM based workflow and found myself missing many graphical dev features in VSCode.

And sure, there's nothing wild about continuing to use a process that works for you, but it is a little wild to insist that your process is the best and other people should learn it, if you also know that it has inherent limitations that alternatives don't.

So it does quote someone who's quote you are going to ignore because you don't like it. Genius, absolutely genius.

No, I'm ignoring it because the author of the piece is trying to get engineering, manufacturing, and costing information about multiple different products from multiple different brands, based on an off hand comment made by a marketing person from one of them about one of their products.

Yes because the author is obligated to report this when writing the article by going undercover as a Chinese defector, working up from the factories, becoming CEO of China and then finally putting this information out to public. Who would have thought becoming an Android news reporter requires such sacrifice. No wonder no one wants to work in this field.

Maybe "Android News Reporter" isn't a job that attracts the best and brightest from journalism school.

It has information on THREE brands with three different technologies attempting to make a change, with information about multiple variables about why they think they can replace Corning. I didn't realise the author had to create a new Wikipedia before putting this out. Maybe he should've started a GoFundMe?

No, it has "information" that three brands are sometimes not using Gorilla Glass in some of their phones, it then has a marketing fluff quote from one of them.

In that case at the very least, you should talk to the son before calling the parents to make sure they're ok with her parents knowing that theyre even asking about it.

K, now give me the longest edge and it's displacement relative to the x axis. Then rotate the shape until that edge is roughly 33 degrees off the z axis.

Oh wow, look, suddenly it may be helpful to have a way other than text to draw and visualize things.

My worldview is that it's wild to choose a dev tool chain incapable of drawing basic 2d shapes, when you have ones available that can do anything.

Mostly agree, but don't know if agree about talking to her parents.

They're 17, they're old enough to make their own choices around whether or not they want to fuck, and whether or not you let them fuck in the comfort of a home isn't going to stop them.

Talking to her parents seems honorable, until you find out her parents are nut jobs who flip out when they find out she's even talked to a boy alone.

Though I don't know if it's different if you're in the US with crazy sex laws.

But it's literally doing that in your image. When a horizontal and vertical line cross the horizontal line breaks.

Yes, as an intentional graphical choice to illustrate the crossing of two paths.

In lazyvim a vertical line, with no crossings, is still broken, as it is two pipes separated by the line space height.

Oh, did you mean the points that represent actual commits? You're arguing it's trash because there's no line between two adjacent commits? Really?

No, I'm saying it's trash because it CANNOT do something basic like drawing a continuous vertical line, because it is hamstrung by using the interface of a typewriter. A git branch is just one readily available example of a situation where something extremely basic like drawing a continuous line would make sense.

You've brought it up multiple times now so I think it's time you also source that claim. Cmon, source the claim where the code editor with better visual fidelity increases productivity.

I can't cite internal market research that is under NDA. I can point you to basic courses on design and UX, point you to information on concepts like cognitive overload, and point out to you the multiple trillion dollar software companies that got to where they are entirely through paying attention to little UX details that backend nerds previously claimed didn't matter and were user skill issues.

Yes, terminal can't do everything, but I don't think anyone is using VS code to look at a cube either. Actually, I'm not even sure if there is a VS code extension that draws cubes? So you wouldn't use VS code for that either.

Bruh, why would you even try and talk out of your ass like this? I am literally using jsCad and VsCode to do my personal 3d printing modelling, and I literally got my start programming using first VS, then VSCode, to build 3d modelling software for Autodesk. Not sure if you're aware of this but modern websites have this little thing called WebGL that lets them display these little things called jraphics.

Again, VsCode can do everything VIM can do, but not vice versa.

and if I do not want the GUI part, how come it surprises you that I do not use that superset?

Go ahead and represent an arbitrary 3d shape using the command line, suddenly you may realize that a typewriter's interface isn't the fastest for accomplishing every programming task.

Regardless, you can be happy with a limited subset of functionality and trying to cram every interaction into text, that's not an argument that that way is better or that a new dev should go that route, just that you can get by using that method.

Lmfao bro,

article CLEARLY states and in house glasses are SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive than Gorilla Glass for some manufacturers.

no man, it does not. It quotes a single Chinese manufacturer's spokesperson who said that off hand about a single type of screen. It has no information on whether or not that's actually true for Honor, it has no information about whether or not that would be true if they produced their screens at the same scale as Corning or whether they expect production to get cheaper, and it doesn't mention anything about literally any of the other brands or any of the the other in-house screen technologies in use.
