They’re trying to solve one of the hardest problems in Computer Science: Naming things.
What do you call the framework, or design system—that thing that’s not quite a glossary of the terms—we’re going to use to describe the meta conversations around design?
“Design language” encompasses the colors, spacing, tokens, typography ramps, general rules, and all the other fiddly bits to unify on so that the more interesting parts of design and user experience can happen.
Naming things is hard :/
I tried all kinds of things to get Stardew Valley on my Mac to work with an XBox controller, and just gave up eventually.
The XBox controller works fine for everything else, just Stardew Valley doesn’t work with it :/
Gonna follow this thread in case you find someone with a solution
The comment does not miss the point. You’re thinking from the perspective of a consumer, not a business.
Without Epic, World of Goo 2 would not exist.
If I was World of Goo’s developers, I would much rather have a job than not.
I find it so frustrating you’re being downvoted for a sane opinion.
I want Lemmy to succeed, but the userbase can be so mean :(
I met her at my university’s Brony club. I sat next to her because she had a sketchbook open. I brought out my own sketchbook and struck up a conversation.
We had a two-year courtship and have been married for 6 years now.
You know how hand sanitizer kills 99.7% of germs?
The current strain of tumblr user that survived the porn ban leans more aromantic/asexual. With less competition this new strain has thrived, and can solely focus on its main food source: fandoms for obscure media.
The English language is missing a gender neutral term for a cow/bull.
Cows are female
Bulls are male
Steers are castrated bulls
Cattle - the term for multiple cows and/or bulls and/or steers
It’s odd because every other animal with gendered language has a gender neutral term. Take chicken for example.
Hens are female
Roosters (or Cocks) are male
Capons are castrated roosters
It’s so nice to have a word like chicken to describe all these animals. But no word for that exists for cow/bull in English.
The writer of the tumblr post above either didn’t know the right word to use would be “Bull,” or the writer wanted to make sure they were understood so used the word Cow. Which… linguistically at this point may have become the gender neutral term for this animal because people need one.
Cow is such a common word, and bull is so uncommon that to be understood by everyone, cow might just be the best word.
Though anyone with knowledge of animal husbandry would be baffled because by the strict definition cows are always female.
I’m sorry you had to learn this nightmare language.
Yeeeeesssss!!!
This is up there with Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear for chillest Isekai. I love me some chill isekai.
This sounds likely. I’d have to imagine at that stage of life the very concept of learning how to learn something for the first time is monumental.
What they’re learning isn’t as important as learning something for the first time. Since animals are so interesting, it sounds like a reasonable thing to start with.
I imagine it also has to do with establishing and reinforcing the concept that “things make noises and so can you”
There are few things that boost inspiration and innovation quite like a competent competitor.
I still don’t feel comfortable here. Lemmy feels too much like an echochamber of the same opinions. The lack of diversity makes me feel more comfortable on tumblr than Lemmy at the moment.
It’s frustrating when I do need to check Reddit for any niche things. I love forums, but find chatrooms like Discord anxiety inducing. Sometimes the only forum for a niche topic is a subreddit :/
I wish I had taken a before picture. Both of these shelves used to be full of crumpled plastic bags. Now all the bags are in tight t-shirt style folded squares in a leftover tissue box.
This was one of the most insane recommendation Marie Kondo made in one of her books, and I was horrified even hearing the suggestion. But now that I've tried folding all my plastic bags, the space saved is really nice. Though now I feel like a crazy person, lol.
Standard wedding photography is set up to make photos look “old”. And it’s so hideous and awful. Most filters used for wedding photography look atrocious.
Let major moments in time look like they were experienced at that time! I’m looking at you, black and white photograph from 2016. Artificially making something old, when at one time they were the present, gives so much incongruity to the experience.
Let something as important as a wedding day look like it’s a product of that time. Not from decades previously.
