There’s a claim that it was a marketing scheme in the 1940s to reduce the usefulness of hand-me-downs in families. My grandmother would have lived through that and I may see if she remembers anything about it. She was definitely babysitting or watching children by 1940.
That doesn't make sense to me US textiles were in high demand, though perhaps not in pink and blue starting around 1940 and by the end of the decade US consumers were getting quite wealthy. I'm not saying it didn't happen but I'd like to see a better reason than "companies love money" since if you loved money in the 1940s there were better ways to get it than trying to do some sort of marketing campaign to reverse a social standard (using a marketing industry that was much less advanced and pervasive no less.)
Handling resize is a different beast than being responsive. Working for every viewport dimension under the sun is not the same thing as gracefully handling an animation while the viewport size changes - the latter is much more challenging.
I agree, I was not even expecting it to handle the resize well. I just thought the landing page wanted me to resize my window to test responsiveness (before I noticed that the animation itself changes the content area size).
That being said, when resizing a window, the scrollbar should not reset/jump to top. At the very least, it should revert to what it was when going back to full size.
Here in France, we have strict laws, and on-calls MUST be paid in some form or another. When we were bought by a US company, mgmt tried to set up on-call shifts for us - we had never needed them for the 10 years prior -, until they learnt of labor laws and went "fuck it, you're on call mon-fri, 10am - 6pm". I'm forty, have a family, and no amount of money could justify that I can't shutoff my phone at night, or prevent from going on a walk on weekends because "uptime". I've never been so glad of french worker protections.
I thought so, but when I came back to the tab later it was working, and was able to go through all examples. Unlike Chrome who crashed halfway through the page.
Yes, but the model has asked that the community stops using this image. It should be pretty easy to find an image that can serve as a standard, and that no one objects to.
This is the thing that makes it pretty open and shut to me. Image library devs can still choose to put the whole political thing aside to respect the wishes of the photo's subject.
Does anyone have to, well, not really, but it'd be the nice thing to do.
