Another translation of OP's opinion: walking on the street without looking at storefronts is unfair. Stores pay a substantial rent to be there and a lot of money to renovate and pay people to put up stuff for you to look at. Anyone not looking at these store fronts are robbing people of their money. There should be traffic stops where people have to describe exactly the location, size and content of every ads on the street. Failing to do so should be punished by law.

RoR is too much magic for me. Getting started with any new code base is such a pain that I never want to do again. As a manager, I'll avoid any job post that mentions Ruby. I have maintained projects written in Delphi, Centura, Java, C#, PHP and none of them even come close to the pain of RoR. Java and C# are notorious for ceremonial interfaces but that's nothing compared to trying to figure out RoR automagics.

Epic wanted exclusives by pulling games from other platforms. I will never spend a single cent on Epic Games. I'm happy to spend it on Steam, especially games that I have pirated before (Commandos series for example) or indie games (Banished anyone?).

For bigger games such as Civilians, I'll purchase it on Steam and then pirate so I don't need to run Steam. I am a big fan of patches to remove the intro screen.

The original video showed that just changing the Agent string fixed the "problem", so it has nothing to do with ad blocking.

Any good encryption should make data looks random. Looking for patterns in encrypted data is one of the most basic steps to break an encryption. Therefore, good encryption should make data almost uncompressable, as in it's so random that compression does not reduce the size.

Encrypt then sign. Verification is often much faster than (or at worst as fast as) decryption. Signature can also be verified without decryption key, making it possible to verify the data along the way.

Others have given excellent advices. I'll approach it from management point of view:

  • If there's management oversight, such as tech lead/engineering manager, talk to them. Don't make any accusation. Approach it from the direction of you feeling uncomfortable with how the team is working. They will know how to solve the issue. However, any tech lead/engineering manager should have already dectected the problem and at a minimum acknowledge the issue.

  • If there's no tech management oversight, I'd suggest you approach the senior engineer directly. I'd want to emphasize here that it has to be tech management. Non tech management won't understand the problem and they won't be able to solve the problem. Sometimes the senior engineer maybe under pressure to deliver and there's nobody to split the tasks to other team members. I did this a few times in my career before I developed my skill to lead a team.

  • If it's neither because the senior is under pressure to deliver, nor there's management oversight, your next best bet is to seek consultantion with another senior, either in your team or another team. They maybe able help to talk to the senior.

  • Your last resort would be non tech management, or saying it another way: express that you're not happy with your job. This won't be much help unless others in your team doing so as well.

If all these fail, consider finding another offer. There's no oversight, there's no willing to inprove from the senior and there's no chance to improve the situation from other seniors, you won't learn much there.

Lemmy advantage is that it's both open source and federated. Someone can make a version with accessibility feature (which will likely be integrated into main version) and deploy an instance for blind users. Blind users will then have access to the whole fediverse.
