  • You interacted with it, which means some ux designer somewhere is going to see the metrics and get encouraged

  • This sounds like they made a cheap feature from data they already had, but didn't stop to think why anyone would ever want it.

  • Ok, you know what, maybe those YouTube layoffs were actually warranted...

  • Why would you link to it? Use an archive site or just post a screenshot.

  • To the state that can't even keep their power grid up during the winter?... Or summer?

  • An even better analysis

  • Dude, eating crickets, and not powdered crickets, but whole crickets, crunchy, carapace and all, is totally normal in many many cultures. I view all the people saying this is objectively bad no differently than people get all pissy about sushi. Don't want it? Fine, that's your preference, but don't put objective value judgements on things that aren't objective at all.

  • Eating insects is normal in many cultures. Calling it obviously creepy and disgusting is imposing your own narrow value system on others. The world is a big and diverse place. If it isn't hurting anyone (well, other than the crickets), why should it matter? Nobody is going to be forced to eat this if they don't want to.

    There are so many non Western foods that most westerners aren't into, should they all be banned? And who knows? Maybe adventurous eaters will try it and like it. Sushi used to be viewed as "objectively creepy and disgusting" by many westerners for decades.

  • I know of no flour replacements that have literally zero carbs. Even whey protein which is a fitness supplement has more carbs. I'm sure the keto community would be super into this.

    Eating insects is not weird in many cultures, and a product existing does not mean you have to eat it. Plenty of people hate tomatoes, should that be banned too? Don't like it? Don't eat it. You can be happy for the people that do want this.

  • Why? It's just more choice, nobody will be forced to buy it. Seems silly to get upset about what other people choose to eat... Wait, she's Italian, checks out.

  • We are not lacking protein in our diets.

    Go to any fitness community and you will see tons of people trying to get more protein in their diet. This is a niche food, I highly doubt it will appear anywhere in any non specialty products. I don't see any problems with more choice as long as it has been tested to be safe, which this is.

  • It's not Ten G it's One, Zero G!

  • The biggest reason eggs are refrigerated in the US is because they're not vaccinated for salmonella, so refrigeration is needed to inhibit growth. The US was able to do that since they have the infrastructure for end to end refrigeration. It's not necessarily wrong, it's just another way to do it. Since salmonella can also be on the outside of the egg they need to be washed, and since they're refrigerated the loss of the protective layer doesn't matter. I guess in Europe with the vaccination it also lowers the chance of salmonella on the outside of the egg allowing the outside to remain unwashed and protective of the inside making refrigeration unnecessary. There's just not enough of a reason to change things in the us now since the refrigeration method is already in place and switching would cost more up front. The main downside is that you can't eat raw eggs in the US which means some dishes can't be made, but the vast majority of the US isn't interested in raw egg dishes anyways.

  • Yeah, it's fine, I said I use it didn't I? But it's just fine, so I'd prefer something even better.

  • Vs code will get annoyingly slow even in vanilla setups when editing large files. Personally I can tell the difference in did compared to sublime text even without plugins, it's not enough to be too annoying which is why I was ok with switching, but it just feels better when it's lighting fast since the input lag piles up in a text editor since you're typing really quick the whole time.

  • Depends on what you're used before I guess. I came from sublime text which was written in C++ and was blazing fast. You could throw any size file at it, I still use it when I need to edit a large file. I can notice the input lag in vs code even in small files with a vanilla setup. After adding plugins the lag can become even more noticable and in certain use cases it straight up slows you down. It's not so slow that it's unusable, but it's noticably slower, and leaves me desiring more speed. But speed alone isn't enough, it needs really good plugins which is why I traded speedy sublime text for vs code in the first place.

  • It's not hard, but it will still stop pretty much any non power user.

  • It's easy but it's extra steps, thus out of your way. I don't know any non power users that don't use the play store exclusive. I think Apple is putting up a big fuss about nothing, they've probably wasted more money fighting this than they'd lose. The built in app store has such a ridiculously huge home field advantage.

  • That noise was just a door panel busting open. This is a Boeing so it's perfectly normal.
