<p>App rejiggering is not an exact science, and is often poorly done.<p>Even if apps transition well between aspect ratio / screen size breakpoints, there is a cognitive load to maintain 2+ UI configurations.<p>Preserving aspect ratios eliminates these issues. It'll make every app better.</p>

<p>same I just like monads lol. cat + pipe feels purer and has lower mental load for me, which dominates the efficiency of spawning an extra process for, typically, a few microseconds.</p>

<p>White is so outdated.<p>I wish we'd stop ignoring Councilman Blatt's proposal to triple-dye the yak hair Imperial Blue, to minimize the color variation and therefore the effects of mass loss due to black body radation.<p>We are, after all, trying to be accurate here.<p>Pickups of Imperial Blue Yak Hair (or PIBYHs) is the clear road to the future and it's dismaying to see any other response from a fellow Unitsman.</p>

<p>They were really going after all the legends.<p>Google hired Guido van Rossum around the same time. I worked down the hall from Rob Pike, they had already hired Peter Weinberger (the w from `awk`), and I shared a 4-person office with Gren Stein, who was then director of the Apache Software Foundation.</p>

<p>I don't know if he actually did.<p>Just know that my mentor was hand-holding the hiring process which basically prided itself on false negatives and still probably does.</p>

<p>I don't remember the exact details after 20 yrs but I think EVERYONE got a coding loop no exceptions at the time by default.<p>And they were still in the era where's they'd just keep interviewing you until they "got enough signal" so people would be back 3 and 4 times.</p>

<p>I don't want to name him as he's decently well known, but I'm pretty sure my mentor monitored Vint's interview to make sure no one accidentally rejected him for a coding error or something.</p>

<p>hah. I was an intern at Google in 2005 when he was hired and remember the wave of reverence that went through Mountain View. Salute to a legend!<p>It’s like two lifetimes in tech years. I remember that summer Google Earth was launched, we were a year removed from the Gmail launch, and I worked on shipping the first Summer of Code.</p>

<p>all textual representations of data are "formats" and one being easier to edit is a totally valid use case. like 'x57675' instead of a full tab. or # title instead of <h1>title</h1></p>
