Communities moving to 'chat' based platforms instead of traditional discussion boards is something I've observed a lot in the last few years. Which certainly feel like a step backwards in my view. It keeps happening though, so I must he in the minority opinion on this.

Calm down there Satan, that sounds pretty awful.

What kind of grinder do you have?

I'm curious about this, because I have always found every niche I thought I had occupied already, and the idea of trying to start up and beat someone else out felt like a lot difficult proposition for a solo developer without marketing budget or experience.

It seems that comment went right over your head.

You had me until the toss, because Aragorn definitely can toss a dwarf that far, but the rest? All made up.

Should is the key word here. You pay a lawyer to find out, which probably isn't worth it.

Folks drive at what they feel is a safe speed for themselves. The posted speed limit doesn't really seem to impact much, when the road is wide, the lanes are big, and there aren't many turns or traffic calming elements, people will go fast because others are going fast.

That's been my lived experience, and generally is supported by research that its road design more than anything that dictates speed.

This is absolutely not how they are designed. Maybe in theory, but in practice I'd say its way more than 15% of traffic speeding.

Only on desktop as far as I know. Still works on android.

I don't understand why there aren't more progressive web apps to combat this. Maybe the google drive integration would still be a problem, but you can avoid app store shenanigans by deploying directly to your users.

Why is that? I've read them referred to as dark matter developers (forget where I read this, maybe a book many years ago). They're out there, they make up a majority of the field, yet they leave no trace because they do not blog, post on SO, or back in the day forums either as questioners or answerers.
