You have been able to move the task bar to left/right screen edges for years. If your task bar is not locked, just click and drag it to the window edges.

A feature to Left align the buttons has been shown in the leaked builds.

Be wary of the possible dry mouth side-effect. As far as my experiences go the feeling of dry mouth is due to reduced saliva production, and just drinking water will not solve the issue. Too little saliva lowers your oral health and as a result can accelerate tooth decay (among other things).

Can't Unsee 5 years ago

I'm not a designer but I found a few things to be a bit off on the "One last thing..." page:

- Title is not centred [1]

- Bullet points look like checkboxes which is misleading since you can only select one [1]

- List of roles is not sorted in any meaningful way [1]

- Words are unevenly spaced inside SHOW MY SCORE [2]

- SHOW MY SCORE is slightly off centre inside the button [2]

- Another small nitpick, choice of colours, or perhaps it is the shadow, of the title makes my eyes think the text is a bit blurry. See top in [1]

> or some other piece of code is known to keep direct references to the elements that should not be invalidated

In that case, why not store the elements in a unique_ptr (and then everything in a vector)?

I recently ended up using std::list<Object*> because of pointer invalidation on vector resize. I see now that using smart pointers would have worked just as well. Thanks.

What about techcrunch, where if you scroll all the way down in an article it automatically re-directs to the main page.

This is so annoying to me that I have JavaScript and cookies disabled for techcrunch just to circumvent this nonsensical behaviour.
