If I recall correctly, Tesla was actually cash-negavite for like half a decade after Musk bought it, surviving off investors and SpaceX's success, I remember it was very big news when it finaly went cash-positive and subs like WSB were all over r/all

Forcing the client to manually verify the integrity of backups each time is a bad user experiemce

I know it sounds weird, but they would probably do it every time

Most probably not, at least in my programs I've never made a flag, because my delays are usually no more than 3 seconds anyway

Oranges aren't a natural fruit - they are a human-made mix of mandarin and pomello

I'm pretty sure it's either a myth (that it doesn't work) or some US-centric thing, because when I worked as a delivery guy, I used to go through probably hundreds of different elevators in high-density residential buildings, and most of them have doors that stay open very long to allow baby strollers and heavy appliances to be placed inside, and on pretty much all of these the door closing button works, immediately closing the door

This is what I and many other programmers have done (not the removal, but fake delays), because it improves user experience, actually:

1.When the user clicks a button that should take long in their mind (like uncompressing a zip file etc) but is actually fast, it might seem like something is wrong and it didn't work

2.When the user transitions between layouts of the application, if it loads everything too fast it will look too abrupt, a fake delay will be made here if a transition animation is not possible/doesn't fit

It might attract dust and other particles that slightly change the taste though

I'm kissing all of the tummies and you can't stop me ~unless you don't give consent~

That looked.. cheap, actually

Used it every day when delivering, because there was much more detail than google maps, so I could actually see where fences and gates are. Used Waze to drive and OSM to walk.
