Easy to fix: Forbes should try to make and sell "QA approved" phones ..
Having worked at many companies over the years as a web dev, I can confirm these sites are held together with more tape and zip ties under the hood than you'd think!
15 years in IT OPS before switching to programming. Can confirm most IT infrastructure is held together with duct tape and the occasional prayer meeting in the data center.
Fucking Forbes?
Last week our SaaS vendor went down for a good 2 days. The vendor the company spends about 1.1 million per year to keep running. It doesn't bother me really, just means I can concentrate on other things(and I get paid either way), but its amazing what other companies run as their infrastructure.
Makes me feel good with my equivalent potato servers.
I was getting that the other day on a random site on desktop, maybe it's got something to do with firefox/waterfox?
Nah, it's a Next.js error.
Can adblock “cause” it?
Not directly, but if the developers would call some global variable set by a third-party library that's blocked by an ad-blocker (say GTM) without checking if said variable is set first, that probably could trigger that error.
I don't think so. This is the code crashing, Adblock just blocks requests.
I wasn't sure if this was a screenshot or an error in Connect for Lemmy as I always see similar things....
Software development is so hard!
Good reminder how @[email protected] must be a friggin boss - been a beautiful nearly error-free year on Voyager (iOS) 🙏
Edit: I use it on iOS but available for others too
Hey thanks ☺️
Question for you or anybody else using voyager who sees this: is your username the same color as OP’s? I assumed there’d be different colors (like ik red is for the instance admin) but yours looks the same color as the OP’s and now I’m questioning if I’m even more colorblind than I realized lmao
Also, seconding the ‘thank you’s, you’ve made a really great app and I really appreciate all the work you’ve done to get it to this point!
Edited to add: thank you everybody, turns out I’m just colorblind lol
Voyager Dev Purple lookin’ good against OP blue
Disclaimer: opinion reflects visually ~~im~~paired privilege (the opposite of visually impaired)
Different color(purple) for me! Here’s what I see, with the fancy new tagging system in action 😎
It should be purple, vs blur. Maybe I could tweak it to be more obvious though!
This is what I see, for clarity Voyager dev is different colour.
What did the console say?
No idea, I found it on my phone.
Me too, kinda, if I'm not relying on that app to do my damn work.
Fucking microsoft get your shit together
They won't, ever.
They've been shit for 30 years, do you really think they'll suddenly grow a conscience and care a little less about money so that they can make great software? Come on now, really?
