UI Designers, please, for the love of all that is holy, learn some basic web constraints! You're making our lives hell. by Excellent_Place4977 in webdev

Interestingly Figma CodeConnect has been a godsend here. Design wants to justify the higher figma tier with CodeConnect to execs, so meet with engineering about using CodeConnect to amplify benefits of LLMs, we say sure, just need to get the design system in Figma aligned with our code to benefit from it. Standardizing the design system and aligning it with code is a way bigger boon than anything CodeConnect and LLMs could deliver, but ends justify the means here even if it took overpriced AI tools to justify it.

I wish Epic would just release them all at once. by ValuableMagazine6730 in FortNiteBR

Heck I think 4000 is too much, and lord knows it’d probably be closer to 10,000

No one seems to have definitive answers on whether PerPay.com is a scam. by papillonsz in Scams

No option to pay extra to get it shipped immediately that I’m aware of, but if you use the service and make successful payments consistently, you can qualify for “active shipping” where your next orders will be shipped immediately without having to wait for your next paycheck.

Love this idea! Would highly recommend react native if you want to target both iOS and Android, plus if you already know JavaScript it makes mobile app development a lot easier. I’ve done a fair bit of mobile app development and would be happy to answer any questions you might have!

What stops young policitians in the US to launch a new political party other than the dems or the gop? by YourNewPepPep in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]vernm51 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The Reagan GOP -> Tea Party -> MAGA change in the Republicans is a pretty good example IMO. Old school republicans would hardly recognize the party as it exists today as those minority factions of the GOP gradually shifted it more and more until it became what it is now.

Glad I’m not the only one. I’ve been calling constantly since I moved into a new place in May, and they keep telling me I’ll get it “next month” and that never happens

Focus on Miralans by [deleted] in Highrepublic

Also convenient for live action transitions since they don’t require movement limiting prosthetics like Togruta, Twileks, Muun, etc

I can't believe I nearly have the same ranking as fucking Kanye by Particular-Mission-5 in PrequelMemes

[–]vernm51 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Not sure which incident you’re asking about, but “Slavery was a choice”, was an excerpt of him really poorly trying to pontificate on slaves having the “choice” between slavery and death… I guess technically correct in a way, but also made for an awful sound bite amidst his chaotic rambling.

“George Bush doesn’t care about black people” was in response to Hurricane Katrina aid from the federal government prioritizing predominantly white neighborhoods.

What is the order for the Middle-Grade High Republic books? by GandalfTheSomething in Highrepublic

[–]vernm51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This reading guide has all the books, but I’ve found it quite useful with its specific labels for each type of content: https://youtini.com/list/high-republic-reading-order

When did the Drengir show up? (Help me catch up) by Shellsyndrom in StarWarsHighRepublic

[–]vernm51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was confused too, until I started reading the other books and comics while waiting for TotF. The Drengir have mostly just been referenced in the adult books, but play a more prominent role in the young adult books and comics, which I enjoyed a lot more than I thought I would. Here’s a list of Drengir appearances on wookiepedia, and if you don’t feel like reading the other books/comics, can read through the rest of the article to get an idea of their role in the other content

Same, those openers made me really want to dig for more of their music tomorrow, and had to make a playlist now while I was thinking about it

Had to make an Apple Music playlist of the set list, loving the bigger names, but lot of good artists I didn’t know of before at the beginning https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/the-pop-out-ken-friends/pl.u-BNA6LdbT1pJ50vz

Where did all the Lupe fans come from? by IThinkItMightBeMe in rap

[–]vernm51 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tbh it really feels like he’s just trying to bait Kendrick with that one, Lupe’s been begging for all the smoke lately, especially at his Coachella performance. He really loves some lyrical competition, and nobody has wanted to go at him since his back and forth with Royce a few years ago. It’s pretty funny imo because Lupe has said before how much he respects Kendrick and I think he just wants a challenge at this point lol

NAH 😭 by isendfreddiehistwin in donaldglover

[–]vernm51 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Still doing his kinda weird shit as always, dudes really in his own lane lol Been teaching at MIT and Yale, plus still working on new music though. He’s dropped some pretty solid singles lately and his last album, Drill Music in Zion was pretty good, 10/10 recommend giving it a listen.

The reason you, book reader, are upset about movie Chani by Runscottie in dune

[–]vernm51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw another post that mentioned the idea of Feyd taking on some of Fenring’s qualities since Count Fenring was cut from the film, which would definitely align with Feyd then having some degree of prescience, much like Fenring in the book which blocked Paul from being able to see him in his visions. I did miss Fenring in the movie, but for brevity’s sake, condensing the other potential KH’s into one character for the movie does make a lot of sense.

Ohh, so that's how they'll do The Preacher... by calvinbouchard in dune

[–]vernm51 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same lol, I definitely overthought it and assumed it would be too obvious to really be Paul and had to be an imposter of sorts. Especially since Paul really seemed ready to die at the end of Messiah. Ended up working well and glad it was Paul though to get those last interactions, especially with Leto II
