You have a vast misunderstanding of why passkeys aren't transferrable or usable outside of those providers. It had nothing to do with lock-in, but because every implementation was different. And no, you do not 'depend on the site' to let you use that option instead of a major provider. There's a standard now and everyone is following it. If you can use a passkey you can use your password manager to manage that passkey.

    These were exactly the things that drew me to Svelte as well. And yes, the author is right. If they had claimed that you should use Svelte for everything I would have immediately stopped trusting them.

    Svelte is very nice for backend engineers to use for a frontend framework. It makes way more sense from a mental model, and it's incredibly lightweight, at least from what I've seen in other frameworks.

    It's the exact same way I feel about Ruby. You definitely shouldn't be using it for everything, even most things, but the stuff it's good at it beats Python by a mile. And it's so much more pleasant to use.

    I’ve only partially read over you wrote and am heading into the mountains on vacation, but I will try to read over what you’ve written here sometime this weekend.

    I mean sure, but you can say the same about any resolution possible. At some microscopic distance on a 42k display you will be able to see the difference. Your scenario here is pretty much “if you use a display in a manner it wasn’t intended then you’ll be able to see the difference in resolution when you compare it to a display that is used in the manner intended”

    But that could easily be due to the quality of the projector rather than the resolution. Everyone in here saying they notice differences is completely missing the point. You’d need to compare against the exact same panel type, manufacturer, model year, etc with the exact same manufacturing processes in order to come to this conclusion yourself.

    It’s pretty hard to fit all of what you just said into a meme. For example your meme does not say that windows users are “dismissing any alternative out of hand”. It says windows users that refuse to switch. Maybe they hate windows but they literally must use Fusion 360 or AutoDesk or Meshmixer or RealityCapture or one of the numerous other software options that just do not work on windows.

    Anyway, if what your meme is actually about is people that only use the browser and then refuse to switch but still constantly complain then yeah you’re dead on.

    No I’m talking about complaining about the problems you’re having with Linux not asking for help with anything. It’s literally happened in this exact community here, where people ask what issues people encounter with Linux, and if I (or others) say I have any issues I get downvoted to hell.
