We got solid state to come challenge the car market in a few years. Supposedly both safer and bigger capacity. Just remains to be seen when it actually arrives in the average car. It’s a tech that hasn’t quite managed to get out of laboratories.
It’s not helping unfortunately, it’s just a blanket change in colors by some filter. The taskbar highlight is bad to begin with. Ideally the should use red/orange for warning highlights and used bright white. But a weak pink isn’t going to be more visible even if it was turned redish. It’ll still be weak.
And it does change every other thing on screen, which won’t be good for me since colors aren’t an issue normally, and even worse if it affect screen sharing. Taskbar changes is just straight up bad UX that tries to look good.
My experience with W11 on the work laptop.
Taskbar sucks, maybe because I’m colorblind but I can te what my selected program is and programs with notifications (Teams) look like the focused program. Apparently notification boxes there are pink now. Can’t find any accessibility setting but fuck the colorblind I guess. It feels wrong to click the highlighted icon I for years have learned will mean that I minimize it…
And why all the dots? And why is the notification dot the largest, so I can even tell which window is actually focused?
Outlook doesn’t open with focus, especially the window that is supposed to pop up and warn me of upcoming meetings. Really annoying.
Teams notifications just don’t show if you are in a meeting and that is focused, they used to do that on W10.
Might be a Firefox bug, but there’s a lot of new visual bugs. Github diff view is randomly strongly colored, and randomly changes to the old weaker background colors when scrolling/resizing the windows. And a surprising amount of scrollbars in grids that weren’t there before.
I just wish W11 at least worked with the regular features of W10.
At least Rust compiles down to what is used. I don’t know if js has any of that, but at least with rust the final program doesn’t ship tons of bloat.
Tesla somehow manages to do well(at least prior to the nazi events). Still at a good price in Norway.
But all other manufacturers have dragged their feet with EVs, and that price cost of starting is large enough that they are in trouble. I’m not a huge fan of China, but they did the investment and are ahead exactly because of that (and crazy subsidies). Being left behind is their own fault imo, and I think that applies a lot to EU as well. Eg. WV.
Code normally works fine after you write it and then hopefully at least test by hand. The new guy 5 years later, which do not fully grasp the extent of his actions, and the guy reviewing the code also not being too familiar with it, will not make sure everything does as intended.
Tests are correctness guarantees, and requires the code and/or the test to change to pass. They also explain how something should behave to people that don’t know. I work in a area where there are so many businesses rules that there is no one person that knows all of it, and capturing the rules as tests is a great way to make sure that rules remains true after someone else comes to change the code.
In modern games, I think it’s fairly common to have a common 3d skeletons share names. So you can make animations like the one above apply to any character even if they have differences. It doesn’t mean that dog extends human, but it may mean that a dog model shares a lot of common “bones”, that are used for movement, with a human model.
So when a human animation is applied to the dog, you can see it warp to start position of the animation, move, and then then stop at the end position as a standing human, before warping back to idle animation (when it turns back into the dog shape)
Related, weapons in Destiny also share the same components across weapon types, and bugs have caused one weapon type to be used for another weapon, making funny things happen. Like how a hand canon (pistol) stretches like a bow because it’s model got used in place of the bow model at the start of this clip:
"".to_string() probably
I feel this is related, and hightlight this even further, look at all the ways to initialize something in C++.

If you are really lazy, have a look at making an int at around 7:20. It’s not horrible that alone, but it does show how many meanings each thing has with very little difference, added on top of years of legacy compatability accumulation. Then it further goes into detail about the auto use, and how parantheses, bracket, squiggly bracket all can be used and help with the mess.
None of those issues for my main IDE, though Rider on some occasions do get stuck marking some spelling errors after they are fixed.
It has stuttered a few times, but pretty rare. But it does have a bug where it think it is building a project, but isn’t. And requires a restart to fix… Easy to trigger if you try building a project while it’s loading the project…
Visual Stuido with Resharper is the one where things would randomly stop working though. Especially hotkeys would sometimes stop working until I restarted it. Slow and stutter too.
Github actually does that too, in some cases at least.

Try making a list without copying every time you add something. Mutability matters then. Imagine copying 10000 elements, or copying 10000 references to items every time something were to be added or changed.
It probably makes sense if the program they came from is a badcase, but at least ours don’t go over board. It’s always a “you are probably doing something wrong, but we will allow it if you want to” or a “please confirm you want to do this thing that may have huge consequences”. With what they were learning, they were not touching anything related to the latter. So they probably were doing something wrong.
I was on-site for users learning our new program. Watched them do something, a dialog came up, and faster then i could catch what it was, they closed it. Dialogs are warnings or confirmations you know, and they did not know what it was…
So yeah, sometimes I do think there should be a wait time on the OK button.
If Reddit back in the day had asked a few dollars for me to stick with using 3rd party apps using the API I would have. But they did the opposite, so here I am. First time actually donating to something, a measily $2 dollars a month, but hopefully a start to fund some of the free stuff I use.
Fork it so i have my version, regardless if the original goes away. (Assuming Github doesn’t nuke all repos of course like they did with youtube-dl for a while)
