i feel like scaling is rarely brought into the conversation. It’s easy to hate on ms, especially with their AI slop narratives, but they did get a sudden and then ongoing influx of users that the system was not designed to handle.
It’s the kiss of death and it’s not anything new in terms of product failure scenarios
Back in the days when I used to use windows, they way I navigate through the task bar was window key + app index (manually sorted). Same way i navigate through tabs in my browser.
This, of course, can be my own ergonomic feature, but using a task bar without this feature feels clunky.
And since full-screen apps on MacOS work on different workspaces, and the bar is context-dependent to the workspace - this means that I have to choose to work on a maximized window or have it in my taskbar. It will be nice if there is an option to consolidate all the apps. Static, sticky, salad.
And damn, I used to pay $100-200 for an entire OS, now its $40 for a taskbar.

I don’t believe anyone here suggests or hints at the extremes(100%) you are referring to.
Mockery for the “i don’t play games so games are childish” argument is fine tho
Bro, is there anything you haven't thought hard about? I read throughout the thread and the answers sound really LLM-y. Although these days we might be calling wolf about gusts of wind.
Heh, sorry it comes across as LLM-y, honest and human-written answers here only. I'm tired of AI slop as much as the next guy, but, yes, I _really_ took my time with Gea. I've been working on writing JS frameworks for 15 years, this is actually the 3rd generation of similar ideas, following tartJS (2011) and erste & regie (2017-2019). It took me several years to solidify what I expect from this generation, and I've been working on Gea for the past six months. That's why I thought about and evaluated many aspects raised here.
Are you a technician or an engineer? And as a follow up, what part of the vehicle do you engineer?
Because this sounds a lot like a case of a dentist seeing a lot of cavities and making conclusions that teeth are "bad tech".
I live in a climate that's in yearly flux from -20 to +35 C and EVs have been normal here for a long time(7+ years) with no major issues. What parameters and therefore regions does your statement cover? I'm sure you can't run an EV in Syberia(RU), but people with petrol cars there have to run them even parked to avoid freezing during the winter so there will always be extremes.
As for the commercial equation: BYD and Tesla don't seem to be fitting that narrative. So this is not a matter of a marketing mistake - but an overall execution on the failed manufacturers.
Engineer. I started in core competency groups, worked on powertrain integration, and now, I’m a specialist. I roam around and put myself to use wherever needed. I’m now a consultant but I have badges for idk, maybe 20 facilities.
Sure. You're a "specialist" but roam about doing anything and everything? That's the complete opposite of a specialist. I'm a networking expert but I just roam around fixing computer issues just like a basic tech.
I don't see anything in your comment history that would indicate a strong engineering role. Mostly political engagements really. You haven't said anything useful on this thread regarding TFA and it's content. Listing your credentials while making obviously false and dismissive statements is not good faith discussion.
This is true. But it does not negate the comment you are replying to. Once you introduce kids into the mix (esp infants) - this whole narrative falls apart quite quick, ditto for elders/people with disabilities. Bikes, public transport are not a substitute for the vehicle.
I do agree that the vehicle should not be the default transportation even if I do consider myself a "car guy".
