"In this particular case, it is not uncommon for software developers to not only ignore, but even dismiss the required understanding of design language and primitives. At the same time, designers often lack the knowledge required to understand the various constraints imposed by software and hardware platforms."

@… thank you for noticing my zirk.us post.
At the time I did not have any receipts, I just blocked them for personal reasons...
If I get any future receipts I'll save them so I can show them...
Also I'm deleting that post since otherwise it may seem like I'm throwing baseless accusations at instances...

TABS. It is a question of #accessibility, you morons!
Death to #smartTabs (aka random haphazard inserts of spaces depending on the IDE at hand)!

Shout out to Calvo's GPT for R, https://chatgpt.com/g/g-iedyANQtM-r-and-r-studio-tutor. It really came through yesterday. Handled the tedious tasks of function input checks and roxygen docs and helped me out of mental rut. I was convinced walk2 could add attributes…

"Many professions can be recognized through dress codes. Doctors and nurses wear aprons. Police officers wear uniforms. Tennis players in Wimbledon must dress in white. Astronauts wear space suits. Dominatrices wear black latex catsuits. The Swiss Guard in the Vatican wears the same outfit since the 16th century. Soccer players have matching kits. Wolverine fights evil in yellow spandex. Software developers wear the t-shirts they got for free at the last conference."

I looked into buying a solar charged battery bank. This product category is completely dominated by no-name 3rd party sellers. 🚩
Charge time is key. No listing had even a rough estimate for solar charge time. 🚩
An example unit claims max solar power 1.13 w, with enough battery power to charge an iPhone 14 Pro twice. Working from that, you'd need ~25 hours of full sun to fully charge. I'd roughly estimate that means at least 3 days in summer. Not quite worthless, but close…

"It is fair to say that Microsoft spent at least the first five years of its history in relative obscurity. The first appearance of the name “Microsoft” on the pages of Byte was a short mention of their BASIC interpreter in an advertising on page 47 of the May 1977 issue. In contrast, page 34 of the same issue included an article about the Apple II by Steve Wozniak. The Woz and Gary Kildall were the biggest stars of the microcomputer industry at the end of the 1970s."
