I mean, no, that's hardly a website. It's as much a website as example.com/demoscene.exe. Nobody ever stopped making art and video games, it's just that they don't run in the browser.
If you call it a website, then Unity is a web authoring tool.
It actually is a pretty decent website. If you look at the main page [1] instead, it's a gallery to navigate to the subpages. Conceptually not too different than browsing a traditional 2d webpage.
fair enough, not a comment with substance, but point was anything that doesn't lock you into components is a good thing. plain css is great. off the shelf ui components are boring.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong in being able to identify certain groups. The issue is when the identification is followed by a different behavior.
I can identify different breeds of cats but it doesn’t mean I will mistreat bengals.
I’m surprised this needs to be explained, but the joke is that every time BMI comes up in online discussions, people rally to annonuce that it’s too conservative because it classifies some dedicated bodybuilders as obese, while this study shows that it’s aggregate bias seems to be in precisely the opposite direction.
Which, of course, better fits everyday intuition about how unhealthy most people with high BMI seem to be.
In reality, the failure of BMI to accurately capture the body fat and healthfulness of most individuals is not usually because they’re just too damned ripped. It’s because people eat more and sit more than they ever have.

That’s a bit of a surprise to me. The most common conplaint I heard was “it’s wrong, but we need to keep it around otherwise there’s no way to compare cross-studies”.
We have decades and decades of BMI based classification, and publishing a paper today that needs results from past studies will automatically bind it to BMI. Same on public policies, defining obesity threshold a completely different way would require more politics than most groups are able to tackle.
It’s like coming up today with a different way to count nutrients from calories, technical merit won’t make it prevail over the whole world that has been built around calories.
That wasn’t the intention obviously. You may call it shortsighted, but they certainly wanted to kill the old platform and start fresh. Only now we know that wasn’t as easy.
In reality we should be thankful that it hasn’t happened (yet) rather than bashing the choice to keep MV2 around longer. They could very easily pull the trigger, I don’t think many will actually switch to Firefox just for that. Most won’t even know.
As a product manager, I don’t know what they’re waiting for exactly.
Chinese users are interested in junk just as much as westerners, if not more, so they will be fed exactly what keeps them glued to their phones.
I don’t believe for a second that every Chinese kid is on Douyin watching science videos for hours.
