  • I was in Target today so I wandered over and put my hand in two pairs of every style of women’s jeans. I tried two pairs in case one pair was poorly manufactured.

    The furthest I could fit my hand was to the part where my thumb connects to the rest of my hand. That was in _one pair _not both from the same style. They were Levi’s 501 jeans.

    Every other pair of jeans that I tried only went to my knuckles.

    I also tried a couple of Levi 511 in the men’s section. They were shallower than I expected. They only went just past the bony part of my wrist.

    I saw your comment. You’re wrong.

    No, they are available online. That’s not the same thing. Buying clothes online is a gamble especially in women’s clothing where the sizing is all over the place and the numbers are arbitrary.

    I promise those retailers do not carry pants with real pockets in physical stores. I have, on multiple occasions, bought clothing in the men’s dept after checking all the available options in the women’s dept.






  • You aren’t wrong, but I think web apps would have been more prevalent because you could develop for a single platform (browser) and it would work on most any device that has a browser.

    If companies, like Apple didn’t block Progressive Web Apps in order to force App Store usage, I’d disagree, but we just don’t live in that world.


  • In the grand scheme of society, it’s kinda bonkers how there was such a short window to go to learn something like Web Development and get a job before it started being replaced. Basically a job that existed for ~30 years and won’t be around much longer.

    (Yes I know AI is dumb, but it doesn’t matter if C-Suite execs think it can do it, they’ll replace jobs with AI)
