Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)

Reminds me of what the official Instagram client looked like on iPad, a lot of margins, and a bit of that 640px wide feed (or whatever the actual width was)
Don't know if it's still the same
That’s because they didn’t make an iPad app and so it was just the iOS app on a large screen. Lots of app used to be like this until they made iPadOS versions.
Looks like nothing has changed. This is how it opens up on 4k screen. Although, it looks like they tweaked it a little. Up until recently I remember opening a post would show a hilariously small like 800 by 600-something box, half of which was comment section that'd fit like 5 comments at best. But now they finally made it properly scalable.
And then you have that one guy that rotates his monitor using this.
I'm only 65 inches tall. I would want to make some sort of crazy mirror room with them.
Ew, Linus
I don't understand how this guy has an audience. I saw one video that was alright where he cleaned a water-cooling system. The rest were like, "look at all this garbage we bought on Aliexpress lol," and I bounce after several seconds.
For people interested in tech edutainment he's alright and has mass appeal. My favourite videos have been more of the interesting ones showing how fast his ridiculous fibre connections are in his house.
So much terrible click bait has meant I haven't bothered clicking in a year or so though.
Same. I love any of their "infrastructure" type videos. One of my favorites is when their storage server almost kicked the bucket and they showed the unimaginably stressful recovery process.
And even those videos show how little they know.
They are fun to watch in a "kid goes wow at enterprise tech" kinda way.
Yeah he was much better a while back. Though that can be said for most of youtube. The algo messes up everything
I watch because its stupid. Its like why Call of Duty exists. Just dumb fun that doesn't require much thought to enjoy. Sometimes you just need some good dumb fun and can't be serious all the time.
More or less my stance as well.
I don't want or need 24/7 GamersNexus. The team is great but oh boy is it dry.
Hey watch your mouth when you talk about Tech Jesus, blasphemy will not be tolerated
He's got a lot of charisma. And his videos frequently give that "people doing something they should have prepared more for but pushing through anyways" entertainment where you can laugh at how they put effort into creating an illusion of professionalism but left enough gaps to make it clear it was just an illusion and he's in way over his head, but somehow still manages to keep it going.
It's a weird spot where I like the guy and want to see him succeed but also don't think he deserves that success and want to see him fail.
Though I don't really spend much time watching hardware enthusiast videos in general, so I probably won't see either of those unless it goes viral like his last shitshow did.
Max-width: 3000px
More like max-width: 8000px;
Good thing we got flexboxes and grids and container queries now.
I had to look this thing up. It has a screen resolution of 3840x600. Oof.
I have 2 24" displays side by side. At some point I unified the desktops (or Spaces if you're on Linux) to make it act "as if" it was a single ultra wide monitor. This was absolutely awful to use, especially during Google meetings where I had to share my screen.
Besides, I like being able to rotate 90° one of my screen because sometimes it's just the best way to work.
This thing is stupid. Appealing maybe, but stupid.
It's not meant for regular use, it's digital signage
I gotchu guys. My design has a max width.
Looks like 86" to play Untitled Goose Game.
The game with the least reason to play widescreen.
The best game for it! Widescreen honking at its finest! Really feel you are in that village, being chased by a horrible goose!
Honk honk honk honk!
Christ, they can't handle 1920W. Everything is a phone now apparently.
So at what point does a VR headset end up actually being cheaper than your specialty odd-size curved monitor?
It's an advertising display. They're just having fun with it.
It costs 4 grand and has a resolution of like 3480x600, making its pixel density pretty much useless for a monitor.
Almost immediately
max-w-[1200px], take it or leave it
There's a point somewhere here, but people using apps in full screen with this screen are stupid
A lot of people don't know that you don't have to use your software full screen. Weird but true.
