Just curious, what would be a correct translation?
The joke is that it’s hard to tell if this is a joke because the lines between good intentions, corporate jargon, and feasibility have been blurred beyond recognition both here and in the real world.
It’s also funny that after all these years, i18n is still a mess. Moreover, even if translations are standard in GUIs and documentation, for some reason, everyone is okay with defaulting to English for the oldest form of computer interaction.
Also, the joke is whatever you want it to be. Follow your dreams.
Both are incomplete, but the article is no longer paywalled
Looks like you sshd into my working titles
lol thank you
where do you get those numbers, boss?
why keep going when the objective
Good point. I actually thing that having if x == true
is bad practice anyway because it’s redundant, so showing a toggle in that context would have the benefit of highlighting that something’s wrong.
fwiw I opened an issue on the vs code repo. It already got a downvote and the issue was reassigned from one maintainer to another. Popcorn is tightly secured.
More technical details in the full article ;)
I mean this as a joke but you might be right. A quick search suggests that no one implemented something like this yet.
Point taken, but Big Tech systematically does equally bad things while disguising them behind DevRel, so I think it’s justified to poke fun at that.
