Inspired by what we do at work, I started to replace my old .png or simply add new .svg in lieu of icon in my own home app.
Wow, they are so sharp and crisp, great idea! 
Although.. downloading free SVG is harder... and the only free app I found to edit them, InkScape, while cuter than a few years ago, has a sort of a learning curve....
On the clearly annoying side those goddamn .svg don't show preview in the Windows explorer (ok they in fact do because I added Microsoft Powerpack but).. InkScape's .svgz doesn't! 
And neither .svg nor .svgz preview in Visual Studio (2022), I wonder if there is an app for that?! π€
EDIT
Haha, of course there is an app for that, SVG Viewer - Visual Studio Marketplace
EDIT2
Time, perhaps, to mention I have an updated version of an unmaintained svg2xaml in my GitHub?!

Nice link...
I think I saw it before and dismissed VECTR right away because it is online.
But as I thought about it later (not VECTR in particular but about SVG editor) it looks like the designers at work are also using a web editor (I guess it help with work sharing), that might be worth a look after all!

VS Code can view them. It makes it really convenient when developing with SVG

Nice! 
Mmm... is there an SVG Editor for VSCode btw?
|

I don't know if there's an editor. I haven't looked for one, but if there is it won't be a visual editor.

nothing about our existence is a simulation, as cool as that sounds.
That is not to say that we were not engineered by other higher life forms - I believe this.

The case for living in a simulation says that one of the following is true:
1. Ours will be the first civilization capable of creating such simulations.
2. Civilizations capable of creating such simulations don't do so.
3. You are almost certainly living in a simulation.
This seems to make #3 the front-runner--if you accept the premise that such simulations are possible. But maybe they're not. Getting the software right might be too hard, or running such simulations might require too many resources.

We are all just bitcoins in the simulation that created our simulation.
Itβs simulations all the way down!

I had a customer once who was very difficult, to put it mildly. We had to revise our system's scheduler to accommodate a change they thought they need to make to their process. This was a system that performed chemical processes on cassettes full of wafers. It turned out to be an unnecessary change that no one else in the industry used and they ended up abandoning it themselves a few years later. Anyway, we had to provide them with a simulation of our system and they spent weeks running it to verify the processing steps. I still vividly remember this customer, in a rather heated discussion, exclaiming, "but the simulation is real!"
That still makes me chuckle. 
FWIW, this was in the late 1980s and they were just making the transition from using aluminum for interconnections to using copper and they were afraid the copper would corrode if left in rinse tanks too long. As it turns out, it will but you have to leave the cassettes in the rinse tank a very long time but we usually didn't do that. I won't go into the changes we had to make to the process since they were removed in the next version anyway. One piece of trivia: that was for IBM when they were second-sourcing the 80286 for Intel.

Yup, and those children who don't wipe their noses end up on his snotty list.

I don't recall hearing about a snotty list, but I've heard of a shite list, which still works.

If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.
