It is cool, it’s a standard feature when shopping for cosmetics these days

I did web design in the 90's and remember one customer reviewing the site that I'd designed her. She said she liked it, but asked if I could add something like that neat little paper clip she has when she opens up Word, so it can help people navigate her site.

Note: Javascript was in its early days around this time so the idea of a dynamic/interactive site like this was not on the cards.

Makes sense. Nowadays there is literally a clippy npm package for react. Javascript has come a long ways. We have it easy compared to the old timers.

I both do and do not want to check that out.

Hey, my meme I reposted got reposted to this instance's programmer humor. Cool!

I stole it from someone else, so no worries OP. I honestly just like how Lemmy can enable these "reposts". I think it's fun that someone else that a dumb meme I thought was funny was actually funny enough to post it again.

Sure, customer! To keep costs down, go ahead and take a picture of a mirror yourself and send it to me.

If you could code an actual mirror into my computer screen, thatd be cool. Mmkay

Honestly, I wouldn't put it past customers to ask something like this

[–] SinJab0n@mujico.org 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, its actually something a real customer could say.

I think all of us here have seen hell in one way or another.
