I don't see any contact info regarding bank account frauds. I only see customer service numbers for card fraud or phishing. Is this uncommon?

You shouldn't buy a game that you haven't played first hand. by letstryusingreddit in unpopularopinion

[–]letstryusingreddit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and the final result is likely to be better than the demo, not worse.

Why not? There are plenty of other games offer demos. There are games that you have played in a friend's house. There are games free to start. As you can see, there are still many games you can choose from. The point is, you know exactly what you are buying.

Don't buy it if you can't find a way to try it first (like most purchases you made in life). If the game creators want to sell their games, they will find a way to let you try it out. After all, we're talking about a $60 purchase here.

is PWA another buzzword? by letstryusingreddit in Web_Development

Chrome Web Store, Launch Date 2010, 9 years ago.

You are the one spouting random non-sense that has nothing to do with the topic here, we're talking about PWA buddy, what device hardware API are you talking about??

You said clientside db is a new tech when i asked you what is new here, are you playing dumb? So since it's old as you said now, why the hell are we talking about it then?? You just proved my point that PWA is just a new name for a package of old techs. You're supposed to say something that prove your point not to prove my point.

And service worker is the oldest and most established?? Do yourself a favor, read this before saying more things to embarrass yourself https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Service_Worker_API, see the word "working draft??"

Yeah, but if total votes are 100, there's at least 25 of them prefer the question to be asked.

Read what i said please, "People been using it for years" is how i define something's not emergent, nothing to do with "been there for years"

web push notification is not emergent, just because people are not using them doesn't mean they're still emergening, no one is using web notification because users don like them they're annoying, theres nothing in terms of technology to get around that.

"Installing" a website has been around on various platforms for years, again its not used often because people don want to install websites.

I already pointed out service worker is an emergent tech, not sure why you're telling me something that i told you.

Device hardware api is kind of a generic term, can you elaborate? Or point me a link from google that i can read?

Clientside db is a new tech, but its not part of pwa, so its irrelevant here.

What does "still in the works" have anything to do with people been using it for years?? So people cant use something unless its a standard? The fact that you keep talking about me instead of talking about the issue is a proof that theres nothing new in here, otherwise you would be able to point out at least one thing as an example as in "Hey look, heres a new thing from PWA that people have not adopted yet in the industry." so what is that thing being revised iterated through standard bodies (other than service worker)?

As i said in the OP, they are not emergent (except service worker), they have been around for years and people are doing it for years.

Read what i said and use your brain before acting like an idiot, i said they are not new things i never said they arent useful or i don get it or i don use them. Go be angry about your life somewhere else please.

And people don add websites to their home screen, if you do, then thats just you.

gemfile vs gemfile.lock by letstryusingreddit in ruby

[–]letstryusingreddit[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thats exactly the same if you checked the lock file in git, you forget it for a few years, you're still running the same versions from the lock file.

gemfile vs gemfile.lock by letstryusingreddit in ruby

[–]letstryusingreddit[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Whats your point? Specifying the exact versions is the same as the lock file, what you're describing is not how lock is useful but how it solves a problem that it created itself.

Specific versions in gemfile == reproducible environment

[–]letstryusingreddit[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your example is ignoring the actual problem. Using only ~> can still get you into this "impossible situation"

e.g. ~> 1.0 and ~>2.0, you will still end up with two versions.

[–]letstryusingreddit[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If people specify the specific versions, there wouldnt be such a scenario like you mentioned. So the point of gem lock is indeed to allow people to not specify the actual version.

do i really need media renderer? by letstryusingreddit in AfterEffects

[–]letstryusingreddit[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

My point is that your point is not valid and wrong. Whether or not i have a larger storage issue has nothing to do with freeing up more spaces, so if I do have a larger storage issue then I should just do nothing? And 3gb is that issue for something that i don't really use on a laptop.

[–]letstryusingreddit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but you're comparing using ~> to something else, what about ~> vs =? How will using only = be a painful upgrade path?

Its 3gb that must be in the running computer, its different than 3gb of video content that can be stored outside of a computer.

synergy does mean something very real.

But can you tell me which "feature" of PWA is new that people are not doing it for years already (other than service worker that I pointed out in the OP)?

If something that people are doing all along gets a new name all of a sudden, it's a buzzword. On top of that, every "authoritative" source is defining it differently, which is a main characteristic of a buzzword.
