but glasses were made of glass, and nowadays most are plastic.

They’re also typically covered in hard anti reflective coatings. Making them similar to glass in scratch resistance.

You can trivially get glass lenses nowadays. It's a prescription option.

In any case, no scratches on my non-glass eyewear either.


most cheap ones, yes.

if you have vision benefits in the US, you can get glasses with glass lenses for free or heavily discounted

the best optics are glass


Instead of relearning how to knot bunny ears, I make the first crossing the opposite way to granny knot, it's somehow easier for me.

I had the same problem in air travel industry. Our ticketing officers were never able to communicate how the ticket commission rules from our partners should be interpreted. I ended up adding a test framework, that allowed to add examples and counterexamples of existing flights to each rule, to verify that they are applied the way they'd assign commission by hand.

nowadays you can vibecode some half-ass headless browser automation using your email-password or even weird corporate sso.


That is exactly what i did last week. Got praised for it.


but why solar system is so out of scale?


Because it’s more cool and important.


Honestly, I'm biased but I think it's the best one.


The damp rock is pretty and compatible with life. 10/10 would inhabit again.


I'm interested in how you're planning on managing the "again" part.

Human-centric thinking.


git's mental model is very, very small, if you care to learn it. Then all the commands and their "inconsistencies" start to make sense - they operate on the model almost without any magic, and not on whatever is user's intent (it can vary a lot)


I've tried to come up with the reason they don't do it, and thought MAYBE they were afraid people would put PINs for the cards there and they thought it's a bad idea. I wonder why I even tried to invent a good reason for them, designers could just lack perspective and do not care at all, even in apple.


Why would you save the PIN? It’s not required when doing Wallet transactions - it uses Face ID or similar.


contactless ATMs


good for you and your particular bank.


give me ability to write a damn whatever on the card. My bank provides USD, EUR and other currencies on different cards with exact same cover. Maddening.

I can imagine that we don't have this option just because people would put their PINs there, and maybe it's not exactly secure enough, but sprinkle some validation on top and we'd be ok.


which is much better than nothing, but is a fairly recent addition
