Makes sense to me, too. I am mostly a desktop user.
Ana's explanation matches with me, too. For whatever reason, I tend to visualize that icon as a thing on the right of the search field (usually in a button), not on the left.
Funny. It's like I was predestined to chose 🔍.
My rationale for it is that with a real magnifying glass it is nicer to have the handle near the hand you are going to use it with, so most of people instinctively would tend to prefer it that way.
Seems the theory matches the answers. The number of people answering right matches the number of left-handed people on average. A very interesting point. Are we discriminating against left-handed people with those icons?
I voted left, but lefties may have a different opinion.
A good criteria would be tilt it to where the search field is, so it points to it. If the field is on the left, tilt it left; if it is on the right, tilt it right.
A distant relative of me worked in a cookie factory. He never eat cookies after that.
I am a software engineer working always on Windows. At home I use Ubuntu. Causality.

El modelo de las Big Four es una amenaza para la salud física y mental de sus trabajadores. A estas compañías se las conoce en el mundillo con el nombre de “cárnicas” por tratar a sus trabajadores de base como carne o ganado.

They are like gold diggers: they search, and when the find, they announce. But when they strike gold, it is because of a mix of luck and work.
Which doesn't make it so different from using Google Search, in the long run.
I think social and gender equality and education, and a totally different social structure are key there. Removing religion was only a step on the way to it. If you remove religion, but keep inequality, sexism, no education, early marriage... You end up more or less the same; maybe even worse. East Germany, for example, was mostly atheist, and it didn't make it a paradise.
This remembers me the worst times in the Ulster: religion was far from being the main issue. The really hard problem is half the people wants to be only Irish, and the other half British.
Most of the time, I think religion is not a reason to do shitty things, but more as a way to justify them. Remove religion from a homophobe, and you're guaranteed to still have a homophobe. It will make a bit harder for him to justify his views or convince others, but most of religious people hardly ever do things because of religion only, no matter how they justify it. Fanatics aside, of course. But fanatics are always bad, be them religious, nationalist, sports or whatever.
Looking at tv and internet ads, it doesn't seem to be many people who really knows, anyway. Wasting so much money in ads nobody sees reeks of impotence and sheer desperation.
A teenage girl in Mali forced by her parents to marry an older cousin. Gender and race bend of the main character only. Instant white supremacist homophobic macho nightmare.
I'd really love to see this each year.
I propose 2 new categories:
- Most Nagging Notifications, that's a clear one.
- My main pet peeve: Greediest Asking Permissions. Why a Sudoku app has to have access to all my accounts, biometric sensors, camera, microphone, location, all my files, Internet and everything else? Can't imagine any GDPR approved legit use for that.
Want an app 100% free of crap? Look for one that asks no permissions, and not only you will have no ads, but usually no purchase demands and no notifications too. They're hard to find, but real gems.
I agree. I am more and more convinced that most of JS tooling is already obsolete if you only support evergreen browsers and HTTP/2. If you use ES modules, you have most of the good without any of the bad. Babel is a crutch we don't need anymore.
Libraries are indeed the main hurdle. But searching for "nameoflib cdn" works fine for most of the main ones.
¡Y lo que sobre, me lo mandas! Que llevo con el mismo tablet desde 2014.
Well, to be honest, neither of them is subtle, really. Gladiator is probably the less subtle peplum ever. An alien is not subtle at all (hiding it after the kitchen scene only makes it more terrifying). As a portrait of toxic masculinity, the (bad) men in Thelma and Louise are really obvious.
Really, both of them have a wide range of genres and styles. The Terminal and E.T., Alien and Gladiator; they don't even seem to be directed by the same person.
And never forget about John Williams. He makes very clear what the point of every scene is. Not only with Spielberg, but with Harry Potter, Star Wars... Any Williams movie seems half of it if you mute it. He's not subtle at all. And I love it.

Loved the first three. But there are dozens of Spielberg films I love. On the other hand, I hate some of Scott films (Prometheus, Exodus), but Spielberg at his worst got me only mildly bored.
Besides, as much as I like Blade Runner, the best of it are special effects and design and all the concepts that come from the book (Dick was a mine of mind-boggling ideas). Besides, the second film is better in everything else (crazy, but true). So I'm not sure to what point I can count it.
Y si @samsung_esp@twitter.com se le adelanta, mejor que mejor.
Visto el panorama, habrá que esperar a que Space-X tenga sucursal europea 😣
There is not a shortage of leeches, is there?
