If there was a real demand for big pockets, there would be money to make in selling those, and big pocket brands would dominate.

I think you might be giving a bit too much credit to the industry here.

There used to be pockets on women’s clothes - or more accurately, you tied them on yourself as they came separately from the clothes - but they fell out of fashion as handbags became the fashion statement that said: look - I’m not poor enough to have to have pockets.

Very dumb, but it is what it is.

What baffles me now is that pockets on women’s clothes haven’t made a comeback yet. How asleep at the wheel are fashion designers?

NOW WITH FLAVOR!

Not really, it’s not feasible for open source developers to get the kind of access required from payment providers to make it work.

Just make it a tax at that point, honestly.

In Sweden, this was a relic from the time when TVs were a luxury exclusively used by rich people, i.e. when they were first introduced to the market. As TVs successively got cheaper, it became essentially a tax on every household.

Sweden did something similar for a long time, making every owner of a TV pay a license fee. Then the enforcing body tried to reclassify all computers as TVs, including smartphones, since these could technically access the online streaming version of the state-owned media. A ridiculous interpretation that was ultimately struck down in court.

All this did was cause unnecessary friction, and kept a bunch of really useless people on payroll to collect this fee.

We resolved it in the end by just making it a tax instead, and it’s never been better. Rest in piss, Radiotjänst, nobody ever liked you

I live in the most sustainable city on the planet, Gothenburg, Sweden.

This sounds like Glenn-propaganda if I ever heard it!

On a more serious note, where did Göteborg get this award?

Yup - it’s a statistical artifact: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/psychology/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2022.840180/full

You probably get most of the benefit by implementing the less severe variant of the policy - i.e. add a tax instead of banning it. I believe sales of plastic bags basically plummeted in Sweden after we introduced such a tax, and people who forget/otherwise don’t have their reusable bag with them can still get one in a pinch.

I would say thats mostly because of Company policies since devs would use the same tools you would use in a linux box.

Not at all the case for me and for other devs where I work. We can freely choose to run Linux, and some people do (mostly backend devs). M-series MacBooks dominate though because of the simple fact that they are just so much more powerful than the alternatives.

Since you’re doing Android development, you’re probably saving some very significant amount of compile time, if you’re running an M-series MacBook Pro.

When the M1 was released there were actually stories of companies sidestepping normal device replacement policies and upgrading all mobile devs to M1s because of the time savings involved, which should tell you something about the power in these machines.

Since the release of the M-series, the MacBook Pros have gone from being primarily a fashion item to becoming primarily a tool for work - someone made the apt comparison that the previous MacBooks were trying to be Lamborghinis - pretty to look at at the expense of functionality, while the M-series are tractors - tools to accomplish jobs.

Given that they own all of the source code (CLA is required to contribute), they can just stop offering the code under GPL, unless they happen to have any GPL dependencies not under their control, in which case this would not be viable.

Are you suffering from an acute case of brain damage?

so, we take something that has the same size as a van,

The footprint of a cargo bike is at most a fourth of your average delivery can

and is at least 10 times slower

Cargo bikes are usually e-bikes, giving them a speed of at least 25 km/h. If you’re driving a van at 250 km/h in a city, that’s going to put you behind bars.

Baffling levels of ignorance.

Ah shit, my bad. Will update my comment.

I believe they whined about something about the deep state being against them though, so I guess I connected the dots where no connection existed.

There was a lot of talk about it in the news, and the right wing party did distance itself from some of the elements of the operation. Mostly they played the fake news card though, and essentially claimed that the deep state was against them - because the investigation came from the Swedish state media company.

They also had a lackluster election result (EU elections) right after, but who knows how much impact this thing had, if any.

Anyway, basically all of them are still in their jobs and they are actively taking a shit down the throats of the Swedish population, as they are currently in the majority block of the government and can as such get a lot of their politics through.

General purpose: Kebab case

But really, follow the conventions of what you’re working on. For example, I’d use pascal case when working on a Java/Kotlin project, and snake case when working on a Python project.
