  • Thanks for understanding what I was getting at and your well written 'realistic' addition to it. There's not much I can add besides saying you're absolutely right.

  • I think you're on to something haha

  • They purposely hide it, because they don't wanna tend to normies

  • Cool, I'm not surprised as we are on Lemmy. Welcome to the 1%.

  • Again. I've said before that release downloads are an additional feature. But it's a feature most people use. Neither did I say it was easy, nor it was cheap. Just that it makes sense and that it doesn't take anything away from the professionals regarding UI quality or focus.

  • It's an additional feature of GitHub that literally everyone uses. Therefore it has purpose. I think it's ridiculous to argue against it.

    Explain to me how developers or the UI would suffer from easier access to releases?

  • It's not a compromise to make another download button for the last release as well. No one looses.

  • So you never downloaded a program on GitHub?

    No one everever said you need to compromise its focus on developers. There is no compromise to be made. It's just a stupid button. Stop arguing lol.

  • Do most people who use Excel also make art with it? Because sometimes devs also just download exe files on GitHub :D

    They don't just always copy code from there.

  • It doesn't have to be a compromise imo. Most people just need a visible download button on the front pages. Wouldn't hurt devs at all. I mean, even devs sometimes struggle with this lol.

  • Imo they aren't even trying, because it's not that hard to make it better. Doesn't even have to be a compromise. Most people just need a visible download button for the programs, that's all.

  • GitHub has bad UX for people who just wanna download and use the programs

  • Also depends where you go I guess. I just know that in the Balkans they are more chill about it, because Tito was one of the 'friendlier' dictators. So some people wish to go back to a united Yugoslavia. Makes sense considering the rising ethnic tensions in the post-yugoslavia days. Most of the eastern european countries however will probably have a more negative stance on this (Poland, CZ etc).

    And my bet is that you'll definitely have a hard time in Indonesia, because they still make the communist responsible for a lot of deaths that happened in the 60s - good documentary about it is 'The Act of Killing'. Also Cambodia... dunno about Thailand

  • Don't you think that depends where you go? In some parts of the world you'd probaly be killed for it

  • Wdym? It's not like the Nazi crimes are a secret or sth.. or unacknowledged within Germany?

  • I do agree that the more the car is using it for you, the more realistic it is. It’s just that my car can already park itself with two wheel steering, and as much as I like automated everything and am cost-neutral on most things, I don’t see the four wheel steering bringing enough to the table to be worth the additional manufacturing and maintenance complexity.

    I think that's the crucial point. And yeah I don't see the potential for a breakthrough here as well

  • Hm I think you could restrict it enough, so that the driving feels normal and then just have it as an extra feature for parking. Especially now that parking assistants are becoming the new norm it could actually be of value.

  • He wouldn't slide otherwise

  • They get sympathy by some, but it's harder to gain compared to women (if we reduce the scenario to binary gender roles)
