All the other pre-teens out there are protesting that we only have one planet and all you have to complain about is that you have to carry disposable straws for your milkshake or your very cold slushie, or you won't be able to enjoy them?
Those are going to hurt your teeth and your tum-tum anyway, you should probably stop
You know you could just learn to drink like grown ups so you don't need to carry around special implements? My babies could pretty much drink straight from a cup or a glass before they had turned two, you can do it too
I scrolled down for a while looking if someone had mentioned the bank as that one baffles me. It's been a few years since I walked into one, and it has probably happened 5 times in the past few decades. That one I can definitely live without it being walking distance.
That said I think the US is still heavy on cheques and people might need to actually visit a bank more often than the rest of the West
100% agree. Mate, there's an another ongoing post on lemmy about autosaving documents, and how everyone seems to think that saving files with their fingers pressing keys on a keyboard is the best approach possible in 2024 because software just can't do this reliably.
Of course everyone also knows better than their charger, battery and device.
I already covered your first point, you don't need to.
As for your second point, autosave still does its job. The fact that you haven't chosen a name and a folder for your document doesn't mean that the software hasn't created one on disk that keeps getting autosaved. When you decide to finally save the document, that file gets renamed and placed where you want it.
I mean this is trivial stuff that got solved a long time ago, I don't see people on this thread saying I don't trust electronic payments, I only write checks but somehow everyone think a basic feature is broken everywhere
If current_time > x invoke deper,older code that you somehow trust
Alternatively, more modern implementation suggested by someone else in this thread
At every keystroke, invoke deeper older code that you somehow trust
While not impossible, pretty hard to slip a bug into something like that and if it happens it gets identified,reported and fixed like all bugs. Users tend to be quite vocal about data loss.
Also some software developers tend to overcomplicate things, this is not rocket science
Fair enough obviously a real issue considering that it is not just you but many other in this thread, that are posting the same or upvoting I do wonder what software, or and electricity grid you are all on and if you are typing from a war zone though.
It has happened to me too, mind you. Once. It was some sort of word processor, in the 1990s before autosave. Been spending my days on a computer since then for work and hobbies, can't say I remember a single other occurrence after that.
Done it a few months ago but then again if I was working at reddit and in charge of preparing the dataset to feed to the llm, I'd give it access to both a recent one and a snapshot from before July 2023 (or whenever shit hit the fan and we all came to lemmy), most edits would have been made in protest. And AI can figure out which ones by itself
Or not trusting autosave because they lost a document once in the 80s when autosave didn't exist, and now they tell everyone to compulsively press ctrl-s because software can be trusted enough to drive a car, but not save a file every minute or so.
Bonus point when they introduce themselves as I'm a software developer..
What's the problem with github and what would you use to publish software or computer files instead?
