Aa!

I don’t understand how you got that from the image.

Both monitors on the senior side of the image are showing coding environments

Not quite this, but I did have a validation team that didn’t know when to quit.

The project was a Windows service, and they would be constantly opening bugs saying “program crashes when we deleted xxxxx.dll”

Like… Yeah. If you delete necessary libraries from the installation directory, the program won’t run correctly.

Imagine programming a computer without understanding the machine code that tells the CPU what to do

This is a great argument for using a pwa in Firefox rather than a native app. Your “in-app browser” can have ad block

That’s not even supported by the enterprise version. You’re going to need a special agreement with the iseven people to support numbers like that

What did I miss?

It mentions Daniel Radcliffe, is that just a vague reference to Harry Potter?

For me it’s because I don’t use YouTube for that. I don’t watch channels or personalities. If I go to YouTube, I’m there searching for something specific.

And when I find the video that shows me how to open my key fob to replace the battery, I’m not interested in a series of key fob videos. If I watch a video related to a news story, I’m not interested in all the reaction videos or analyses by people who don’t know what they’re talking about. I’m most certainly not interested in any other video with a thumbnail of someone with their mouth agape at something

I don’t want it suggesting more of them, and I certainly don’t want it automatically advancing to some other video after it’s done. All I want is a video host that plays the videos I asked to watch. Everything else is just a reminder that the kind of videos they push are the exact kinds of videos I don’t want to watch.

They get in the way, they draw attention to the wrong things, and they encourage people to make more of the kinds of videos that get in the way of finding the actual useful information

Seems to me they were mostly used to put content inside a scrollable element. Their place has mostly been taken by overflow:auto hasn’t it? I think this is the better way.
