  • Not perfectly optimised is fine, but non-functional isn’t acceptable. I’ve never seen a quirk personally, and quirks aren’t a good reason to help maintain Google’s monopoly on web standards.

    You may say less than 5% is fine, but it could be the margins in a low margin industry. 2% could be 40% of the profit.

    I haven’t seen a team operate where a senior isn’t checking it.

    Usually the bleeding edge stuff is used by small companies trying to establish themselves because they have nothing to lose and no reputation to protect.

    Plus, when you got Browser Stack, you catch a lot of problems like this.

    Because in web development there are compatibility tables of what features work with which browser. If a developer has used a feature poorly supported, they either haven’t done their homework, or intentionally made that call.

    In web development, most reputable Front End Devs would not choose bleeding edge, barely supported features even if the temptation was there because the user comes first. Generally, you wait until it has been adopted by the main browsers (chrome, safari, ff).










  • First one is about Germany, not UK. Secondly, you do realise wikipedia is unreliable, prone to edit wars and subject to those that have the most passion for a topic (like free speech “absolutists”/racists). It’s why academia tell you its a poor reference and to not bother.

    Can you find a UK example that you think overstepped the line?

    I’m in the UK, critical of Israel and not been arrested yet…

    It’s always interesting seeing distrorted American views of the UK.









  • “When I work I like to do my job and then relax.”

    They like to do it the other way around. They do nothing, then something. You do something then nothing. Why do you feel that your way has to b the right way and everyone else is wrong?

    Do your workload, and no more, and be fine with it, or move to another organisation with the same problem.

    The goal is for you to be able to understand that people in this world are different to you and that is fine. As long as you aren’t doing their job for them, it’s all good. If you choose to do that, it is on you.
