Yeah it’s definitely a different kettle of fish when you’re on a hill in traffic and swapping to the handbrake constantly, I think that’s where newbies really struggle.
I’ve only been driving since 2012 so I wouldn’t call myself a veteran since I know a few delivery drivers and the difference in experience is unreal lol
Idk if it’s ok to do but I’ve always just: keep it in first and clutch + brake -> bite on the clutch and swap to accelerator a smidge to move forward in traffic. Doesn’t bother me much tbh but I’ve never driven an automatic so idk if I’m missing out.
Yeah I know someone who used to do employment tribunals. She says it’s a ridiculously high standard and most employers are not that dumb. She’d only really take cases where they haven’t paid their wages and the employer was a mess. The amount of pregnant women that would come to her and she just couldn’t help.
Yeah sure, fine for the SME sized business and I’ve done it in the past for features like offline web behaviours (wasn’t public facing). But tbh it’s a shitty excuse even at that size and outright inexcusable for Adobe. I wouldn’t get away with this at my current place which has significantly less resources than them. Don’t make excuses for Adobe and it’s a weak excuse at best.
As a developer with 7+ years industry experience this is a very weak excuse to not support browsers.
Differences in features are usually down to bleeding edge stuff and I don’t think your example of sort would apply because the end result is the same.
I know Adobe are more prone to using newer browser features but there really shouldn’t be anything that’s not simple enough to assure support across all browsers. Especially for a company as big as Adobe. It’s inexcusable. We rarely have to use polyfills now, that was more a problem when I was starting out, mainly due to IE11 still holding out.
I would love a way to optionally post a location while choosing specificity, i.e. United Kingdom vs Newcastle etc. That way I can filter communities and posts to just those in a location I like.
I think it could lead to some really cool interactions and ways of looking for things.
I think this is somewhat strawmanning what the point of the argument in this specific case is. They’re not appealing to nature being good, that’s not the argument.
The point is that if you are genetically selecting for specific genes through modification then you are circumventing the typical process for genetic change. There are lots of unintended effects of genetic changes and there are lots of corrective mechanisms built into DNA when genetically modified through selective processes rather than direct gene splicing. Science is always slow to catch up with analysis of an entourage effect where many other small factors may influence results long term.
I’m not anti GMO and this isn’t my opinion as I think GMO products have amazing potential. I’m just sick of people on my side totally misrepresenting this argument as “hurr durr nature good.” It’s such a smooth brained take.
Yeah but the tool chain isn’t a poorly constructed house of toothpicks
I think some reservations can come out of the idea that the natural environment isn’t producing these genetic changes. Just to play devil’s advocate.
Edit: does nobody fucking know what devil’s advocate means? This isn’t my opinion christ. Also there’s a bit more depth to the argument though that you guys seem to be really obtuse about.
Yeah you’re right, it’s one of those small complaints that’s gonna always come from a small group of people. It’s just media; people get so nuts about this site like everything should always cater to them…
Gets weaponised too I’ve seen people try to link this bullshit to “wokeism.” As if that’s the fucking problem with Hollywood.
Actually reading that article you linked it doesn’t seem that debated and there isn’t really any evidence of her being black.
Just block the user, clearly a troll or troglodyte looking at the comment history
Reminder to everyone reading this BLOCK THIS USER
Take a look at their post history and how they interact with anyone. It’s condescending, vitriolic and pedantic at every turn. I don’t wanna see comments like this as they literally just go out looking for arguments. It makes our communities worse and leans into the idea that redditors are pedantic assholes.
If you just block them then they can fester in an argumentative corner with the other cretins. The rest of us can have chill open discussions and actually behave like normal fucking human beings.
Oh so now it’s a hissy fit because you don’t wanna admit you’re being a prick and don’t know how to effectively communicate. That’s definitely a you problem lol.
You are literally having another imaginary argument where everyone else is cognitively dissonant to your position. I wish I could be this deluded and self aggrandising.
Please stay on Reddit, I think your way of communicating is much better suited for over there. Speaking for myself I think you make this community much worse than someone missing a piece of context in a comment.
You’re having an argument with an imaginary position rather than asking them to clarify. It’s beyond stupid to assume their position when you didn’t have enough information to begin with. You’re not showing yourself to be as smart as you seem to think you are.
I think you dropped your magical fedora of pedantry. I hope you don’t interact with people in real life this way.
I miss my ravenous lab, give him some pets from me. Ours managed to get on the table and eat half a turkey at Xmas.
Dm me and I’ll find the article. Was during the riots that started in London and got down to Chatham after that kid got killed by the police. We literally just lit a campfire in the park like we usually would and they said it was rioters lol.
I also still have my hospital discharge sheet from Orihuela too haha. I walked 12km in the wrong direction towards Murcia airport.
It’s always a compliment when people think I embellish my stories. Best part is I still hang out with people involved in some of them so when my gf would hear their sides of shit she’d be amazed how it always backed up what I told her cos she couldn’t believe some of it.
Do you generally prefer a manual then? I had a big gap because I was banned from driving due to health issues and a couple years on top without a car so I wouldn’t say I’m fully seasoned but I definitely know what I’m doing. At least enough to have some bad habits lol!
