The nominative determinism of this specific atrocity is off the charts here.

My state's driver's manual used to specifically state that it's illegal to use your car's horn if there isn't an urgent need to alert someone about a potential danger. Now that every goddamn car honks when the driver walks away from it, that passage is mysteriously missing.

I love when I fid a way to edit a couple video clips together in a clever little way that nobody will ever suspect was even an edit.

I'm just curious why "meticulously" is underlined

Viltrox makes great lenses! I'm not sure how well Sony's newer cameras deal with continuous AF, but you can tell in that video it's the camera that wasn't triggering the focus, so the lens is doing a good job there.

That's still just 1.0 in metric

That last sentence can be applied to so many systems in the world. It reminds me of when a Safeway cashier told me the reason a certain item was difficult to ring up was because it made it easier for the people in the back to do the paperwork. I'd rather do more work to make end users' lives easier.

Follow me for more complaints about the job application process, because the way things are going, I'll be stuck doing this until I die.

Also, while this one asks for a range, the text box only allows numbers, so you can't actually enter more than one number. Spaces and dashes don't work, and it yells at you with red text if you even try.

An input field with the prompt "Salary range you are looking for" with the number 1 in the text box. There are up and down arrows on the right of the field, and "USD" to the right of that.

This is becoming more common, this text field where you're asked how much money you'd like to make from a job, where there are these little arrows that change the value by $1 per click. Might be a subtle little commentary on the state of the industry, now that I think about it.

I blame Indeed for this one though. They have this thing where they retain the last cover letter you used to apply to a job, and on sites that don't do that, I copy and paste from a template based on which kind of job it is. So I don't make that mistake anywhere else. I make other mistakes instead.

Just realized I'd applied to about eight design jobs with the cover letter template I wrote for writing jobs. So I can forget about those.

Why can't we modify applications after we've made them?

This is super sad news. Shawn's work was gorgeous, and he definitely made a mark on the yo-yo world.

Every door is instead a dance club bouncer who will let you pass in exchange for a chest bump, but you must have tall enough shoes to reach and each one is a different height

That whole "if you don't have anything nice to say" thing doesn't apply to everyone, right? Otherwise nobody would ever talk about Tim Dillon.

When I brought this up at Microsoft, just as a hypothetical, โ€œWhat if weโ€™re wrong?โ€œ The response was, โ€œyou donโ€™t actually think that, do you?โ€ Not an answer.

And the thing is, thatโ€™s a pretty essential question to ask about things, even things youโ€™re confident about or firmly believe in.

Oh, it isn't for Lightroom-style work. I do a whole bunch of stuff with Photoshop, and right now I'm trying to work on key art that's 90% done in Photoshop, and I just need to swap out one asset and apply all the same effects to it. Even moving things around, the most basic action, is difficult.
