I swear Zach Hyman must have a record for disallowed goals. Can't believe they didn't challenge that.

I unironically support this

Mobile-first is supposed to be a specific way of implementing responsive design, but I think a lot of people say "job done" after the first step and never get around to the whole responsive thing. I think it's easier to use a mobile layout on desktop than it is to use a desktop layout on mobile, so in that way I think mobile-first is a good principle to follow. But I agree, making a desktop layout that looks good is ignored far too much these days.

The one thing that really grinds my gears above everything else is how on some news sites, there's an autoplaying video at the top of the article that follows you when you try to scroll past it. An autoplaying video is bad enough, but that's just infuriating.

I find news sites tend to make the most aggressively bad UX decisions, most of them are a nightmare to visit even with an adblocker installed.

And 100% of the time the thing you end up clicking is an ad. It's definitely intentional.

Yeah, failing to call in the exterminator the instant you see evidence of this type of invasive and predatory lawmaking is itself an act of treachery. It's completely unacceptable.

I can't even conceptualize what Canada would gain out of a treaty like this. It just seems like a cyberpunk version of an east india company. I'd rather not have some gig-contracted soldier showing up at my house to violently enforce their empire's claim on my digital soul.

Our government needs to be doing the exact opposite of whatever the US is trying to compel them to do.

Such is the problem with dictators in any situation. A benevolent dictator might be one of the most productive ways to run a project, but at some point there has to be a successor. Even a mildly-less-benevolent dictator could cause a lot of damage. Linux needs a governance structure with checks and balances even if it means slower decision making; it's too important to let fall into the wrong hands.

Schwede contemplated selling his car, but after racking up more than 60,000 miles on it, there was little value left in it.

That's a pretty steep devaluation curve. Do electric cars just wear out that fast? Or is this more of a hype-cycle rug pull situation?

This was never about the border or drugs

You got that right. That stuff was pretty much all post-hoc improvising to attempt to make trump's ridiculous tariff idea seem less irrational and stupid.

I'm waiting to see what nebulous and impossible task he comes up with this time in the 11th hour, one last chance for Canada to prove its worth to the imitation mob boss who's running the country down there.

I agree though, whatever he wants this time, we should call his bluff. As much as he wants to paint Canada as the abuser stealing billions from the american economy, everyone can see that the opposite is true. Deleting our trade deal with them will be hard at first, but it will ultimately be a good thing for Canadians.

It brings me some amount of comfort to imagine musk getting a jolt of horror every time he pisses blood.

You better start preparing your apology now. June is coming real fast.
