Devastating Pyrotechnics

It makes it way worse that this was the name of the company

It’s unfortunate they don’t know what /s means

I also was always a big fan of

Working on hobby or shorter lived projects makes all your points agreeable. My work is generally on enterprise SaaS software with vast lifecycle and my thinking is

separate css files

module.css with imported classes: my go to outside of tailwind

These are the same thing, unless it’s not configured correctly.

inline styles

Only makes sense for something computed. Like a color computed based on a user selection. Otherwise it should be a class

scss

On a well-maintained project SCSS should be second nature. Something like a Vue single-file component project with scss will certainly not add to the bloat. You’d just have extra lines of vanilla css to scope classes and children selection/scoping that scss does with better syntax, in addition to scss functions and the like. Note that CSS is improving to do the work that SCSS has previously done, just as JS is improving to do the work natively that frameworks, libraries, and toolkits have previously done.

bootstrap

Yeah bootstrap, like jQuery, had it’s time. It’s largely been replaced by native tooling that shouldn’t require external libraries. There’s plenty of CSS libraries that are purely for theming, which is mostly what people used bootstrap for. (Smart defaults, basic component and typography themes, etc).

To me tailwind makes sense for setting up projects quickly, but gets out of hand when it comes to customization on a larger scale. You eventually end up with overrides to tailwind’s default styles that become hard to manage, outside of the scope of their theming implementation, and then ironically you’re usually just using CSS variables which is back to the core toolkit.

To fight ad blockers

It’s basically an ad to tell people their phone isn’t private and they should buy a Purism phone

Yes, your user agent detector is certainly working

What in the UX war crime is this for me to read an article. It’s like the polar opposite of for-profit media trying so hard that it’s just looped around on itself

Are you talking about the turbo encabulator, retro encabulator, or hyper encabulator?

lol yes, however I’m purely combining

with RAW being an image format. of course it would make sense on a paid image storage service. I’m sorry you felt the whoosh

Quarterly profits above all else bby

“And the big surprise, is that the fucking image uploads are being stored in fucking RAW!”

Sure but it’s dumb to search “Were you able to resolve your issue?” That exact comment exists across hundreds, perhaps thousands of github issues, it’s a generic question. The unique comment is the follow through. And if they tried searching the first comment, it would take a few more seconds to try searching the second comment. So there is not “no marker.”

Literally the second google result. (And probably is linked to in that reddit thread but I refuse to use reddit)

The cloud computing salesmen

“CI” - “Come In” which is what your boss says when they ask for a meeting after you thought it was fine for that one line change to skip CI and it broke something

That’s pretty awesome, I didn’t know they had that. Seems like the sort of thing that should be like an EU enforced license structure. If anything it would make Adobe pucker their buttholes considering their asinine and predatory pricing strategy.

You mean subscribe to them right? You can’t buy Jetbrains products to use in perpetuity. I pay for their all products pack. They have a 40% continuity discount after two years, which is nice. I would agree they aren’t terribly expensive for commercial software, but they are competing in a space full of free and/or open source alternatives, unlike many production-level commercial softwares.

That being said, their AI integration features are awful across the board, whether it’s their own AI or copilot.

And while I much prefer jetbrains stuff to something like vscode, it’s way more about UI uniformity for me. VS Code extensions outside the top 20 tend to slap themselves wherever they want, with html/css dialogues that don’t fit the UI, and there’s often like 6 versions of an extension that’s like “this one is deprecated, but also the other one is deprecated, but the new one is made by microsoft but it’s actually 3 extensions now.” Whereas generally jetbrains extensions fit within my action panel, toolbar items, and can move widgets to different sides of the UI so that version control stuff, code analysis/structure stuff, external integration/database stuff, and project trees all get their own dedicated part of the workspace
