I didn’t know that site was still around. That was my reddit before reddit.

Did you even read the post you’re responding to?

I agree with you. I think the problem is localization. If all buttons are text they’re going to need translation and word length will vary. It’s doable, yes. But a series of icons takes up less space and should ideally communicate universally…it’s a little better if done right. If Photoshop was a bunch of words I’d be pissed off.

And the word ‘aesthetic’ … please add that to the list.

“Oh no! My blue check!!” It’s not real and it’s not a display of power like he thinks.

Did you just say everything is moving away from computers? Dunce.

But you said your job should teach you.

I’m saying that your not going to find a job that teaches you unless it is an apprenticeship (which is not a common thing outside of trades anyways)

So what is your argument then? “Not everyone needs to know Thermodynamics”. Maybe that’s why that is an advanced class in highschool. Do you just not like people getting a general, well-rounded education?

It looks like an English teacher never taught you how a paragraph is formatted, Mr. I-make-a-new-line-after-each-sentence.

College is school. Early education teaches you skills to be a competent adult …and so we don’t have a population of mouth breathers.

I hate to burst your bubble but you have to go to trade school to learn the basics of welding, then you can grab an apprenticeship to learn how to do it professionally.

Your are very ignorant of how professional work is conducted. Companies want to higher people that know how to do their job and have years of experience doing it. Some places do have entry level or junior positions where some training is expected. But in general, you will be hired for the skills you have (not because you have ‘potential’ and they would love to spend months teaching you).

For welding and electric work, that is often learned through an apprenticeship, which aren’t easy to land either. That’s how a lot of trades work. But most jobs do not just offer apprenticeships or ‘free teaching’.

Also, have you ever heard of Trade School?

EDIT: If your argument was true I would just ask to be a brain surgeon and have the surgeons explain it to me.

It’s common knowledge now. This is not an unpopular opinion. There’s a metric shit ton of research and studies that show all the ways social media is hurting us. There’s a plethora of books written about it. It is the most current topic in New Media Theory.

Ok Dwight.

Yes, but how is that not a legitimate explanation. There’s enough Americans on lemmy to see a few posts with English title capitalization.

I have two Jabras, low and high end. I really have no complaints. I listen to music at work and switch over to calls on Teams seamlessly. Good battery capacity. “Hear Through” at the click of a button. The bass is too high but that can be easily adjusted in the companion app.

That happened.

Same. I used to play shows wasted as hell. Sometimes I wouldn’t even remember playing that night. I was having fun and thought I sounded great! But truth is that I was sloppy and never really progressing my skills.

Absolutely. I gave up drinking 2 years as well. I’m a better artist, musician, employee, husband, and father. Alcohol just sucks.

My 2019 Jetta has a 100% digital instrument cluster. It’s currently broken…just a black screen. It’s neat how reliable analogue instruments are.
