  • Not a Mac user, so I’m seeing this for the first time. At first I didn’t get what you meant, but the longer I looked the more things I found that bothered me.

    Here’s a list (feel free to add things):

    • corner radius on rounded edges is too large
    • sidebar menu blends poorly with the rest of the UI (lighter color, white frame, no horizontal padding)
    • status line at the bottom is inefficient (could be one line instead of two, not sure why one has a close button) and seems inconsistent with the rest of the UI (thinner lines, no padding at the line ends)
    • horizontal separators in the file tree are too thick (makes them look like scroll bars)
    • tabs at the top look like a giant toggle button (not like tabs)
    • buttons on the top right have a white background that seems unnecessary (the active button goes from light gray to white to medium gray, which is too busy)
    • forward/back buttons on the top right have inconsistent design and look like one of them is active
    • colors for active elements in the outer UI don’t match (light gray in the sidebar menu, medium gray for the top buttons, white for the tabs)

    This is just visuals. I can’t judge the functional aspects of the design.


  • Half of the reason is that Carbonara is not a traditional recipe, like it’s often purported to be. It was created in the 1950s with ingredients that were originally part of American rations and were replaced by the ones we know today during the period of economic growth post-WW2. The other half is the fact that even Michelin star chefs use cream in their recipes, which I guess is also in reference to how early Carbonara recipes looked like.






  • I don’t understand why you’re getting downvoted. You’re not wrong. Sci-Hub focuses on academic journal articles, which are a pretty novel phenomenon. The first journal was created in the 17th century, and journals didn’t become the primary medium for publications until well into the 19th century. I wouldn’t say academia is “biased” per se, but it’s true that the academic publishing business is heavily dominated by western companies.
