For the love of God, or cake, or whatever - PLEASE remove the "smooth scrolling" code from your site. It completely fucks up all pre-existing expectations on how a mouse wheel or trackpad is to operate.
I don't think you have to subscribe to Amazon Prime in order to rent movies. Same thing with Apple TV (formerly the iTunes store). For whatever reason though this distinction is not well made.
I quite like the parts of the code that prevent random electric shocks, and the parts that keep the roof from caving in, etc. (I assume you meant building codes)
The forthcoming mass deportation will definitely fuck shit up though. UK is having a similar issue due to Brexit. I guess Eastern Europeans are to the UK, as Mexicans/etc. are to the US?
I didn't want to get into a huge aside so I just left it there but imo the NEC et al are absolutely great. In a lot of ways current building standards actually make things easier and cheaper, they remove ambiguity and offer a set of best practices that are time tested to reduce labor and errors.
The issue is how local municipalities enforce it along with zoning to make building massively more bureaucratic. Reaching the right people is impossible, everyone has their own agenda and interpretation, and city councils across the country add arbitrary stipulations entirely to reduce construction so line goes up.
I love PowerPC but I still don't believe CPU architecture alone is a motivating factor for why any person would choose to use a particular computer over any other. If that were true then Stebe Jovs never would have told me about The Megahertz Myth, now welcome Phil S[c]hiller to the stage to run the PentiumⅡ machine for this specially-scripted Photoshop benchmark, et cetera.
