  • Starting a new business is hard enough as it is - please do not complicated it by adding in something that brings limited tangible benefits to the company, whilst making it unnecessarily harder than what it will be anyway.

    Either get fluent now, and then start your business - or start your business with Windows and move on when you're profitable and can afford the reduction in productively while you learn the ropes.

    Do not go anywhere near MacOS - you can't afford it.

  • I assumed he wouldn't get in the first time. I really hope people don't make that mistake in 2024. Voter turnout should be through the roof - because if there's one thing the republicans hate more than the Democrats, it's a high turnout.

  • Which countries are you culturally aware of enough to know that to be the case?

    The US has mount Rushmore and the Licoln Memorial as an example of a counter point.

    I think most countries have images of their old leaders in a similar way to how UK has it. But I'm curious to know where this is not true.

  • You say that like knowing one's history is a bad thing. I imagine wherever you are from is equally as "obsessed" about its history.

    For instance, aren't Americans taught about their past presidents? And most of them had significantly less impact than most of Britain's monarchs.

  • Thankfully the only interaction I have with teams is when a supplier arranges the call. Once every two weeks. It grosses me out every time...and that's the Web app.

    Do you really think they have done such optimisation efforts as minimising function calls? I can't imagine it's required for what is actually a fairly simple frontend app. The complexity is the enabling stack on the backend.

  • How do you know this?

    My first thought was "they probably want to ensure they are who they say they are and so want an authenticated request" - while that's against GDPR, not everyone is as educated as they should be, and not every mistake is a nefarious activity.

  • You're right, but sometimes a bit of undue courtesy repays in dividends. Not every minor infraction is nefarious and not every minor infraction deserves reporting. A simple courteous reminder of their obligations may save both parties some undue hassle.

    I can imagine this company doing this to ensure only authenticated users can have their data removed. There are other ways...but this was probably what they considered reasonable and painless for all, admittedly they (wrongly) didn't consider the audience of this community in that decision.
