"Like" button moved to bottom.... don't "Like" it!


Recommended Posts

I never thought this was a 6 page worth thread.

And i never thought it would reach 6 pages without a response on why they made this stupid, and rather unneeded change. But i guess that's somehow too difficult for them to manage to do.

WTF is the Like button doing where it is right now on the blog? Looks even stupider...

I can live with the new placement of the like button in the threads but that's just stupid

As its been about 2 weeks since this change, can we have a poll to ask the community where they prefer it?

I'm sure many have got used to the change but still prefer it on the top right.

Quick temporary ugly stylish script to put it back how it was (I think... I can't quite remember where it was, I just know I don't like it at the bottom):

Works great -- saved me the time of having to do it ;) I changed it to 8px vs 3 - this seems to be more inline with where the posted type is on the left.

Stylish is better for this sort of thing then greasemonkey anyway! Thank YOU!

edit: BTW same script can be used for fixing it on the blog page - just change to blog vs topic in the url-prefix and then edit the position in the script to your tastes. I added some right on the blog or it was too close to the edge, etc.

Again great script, I would put it on userstyles.org so people can find it ;)

url-prefix

Quick temporary ugly stylish script to put it back how it was (I think... I can't quite remember where it was, I just know I don't like it at the bottom):

@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document url-prefix("https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic") {
.post_body { position: relative; }
.ipsLikeBar {
position: absolute;
top: 3px;
right: 0;
}
.ipsLikeBar .ipsList_inline li:first-child {
float: right;
}
}[/CODE]

not working on chrome stylish :-(

Does seem an odd placement for it but you never know until you try and now it has been tried and the community has voiced its opinion, can we have it moved back please? :p

I'd personally prefer it next to the report/quote buttons as it is an 'action' button and does deserve to be over there with the rest of the action buttons.

not working on chrome stylish :-(

For chrome stylish you need to remove the mozilla specific code and just have:


.post_body { position: relative; }
.ipsLikeBar {
position: absolute;
top: 3px;
right: 0;
}
.ipsLikeBar .ipsList_inline li:first-child {
float: right;
}[/CODE]

"Applies to" -> "URLs starting with:" https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic

For chrome stylish you need to remove the mozilla specific code and just have:


.post_body { position: relative; }
.ipsLikeBar {
position: absolute;

    • Ford execs say they made a mistake when they replaced human engineers with AI by David Uzondu Ford recently announced that over the last three years, it's had to rehire about 350 "gray beard" engineers to mentor younger staff and reprogram diagnostic systems and AI tools that were failing to meet up to quality expectations. The company's VP of vehicle hardware engineering, Charles **** said that leaders overlooked the deep experience of veterans who survived many product cycles. **** admitted that simply replacing them with AI was a huge mistake, and that while AI is "a fantastic tool," it remains "only as good as the information you use to train it." The rehired engineers now run mandatory meetings to troubleshoot vehicles and reprogram automated engineering software and AI tools to prevent glitches before production. These technical specialists hunt for failure points before parts ever reach the plant floor, helping prevent the massive recalls and defects that previously cost the company billions as it aims to cut one billion dollars in expenses this year. In last year's JD Power Quality Survey, an annual study that measures the quality of a car during the first three months of ownership, Ford finished 10th among mainstream brands and scored below the industry average. But this year, JD Power ranked the automaker as the top mainstream brand, placing it above the likes of Toyota Motor Corp. and Honda Motor Co. Ford attributed this massive improvement directly to the expertise of these returned engineers. Ford's realization that AI cannot magically design and test quality vehicles without senior human oversight is just the tip of the iceberg. When Careerminds looked at companies that conducted AI-driven layoffs, researchers found out that 35.6% of those companies had to rehire more than half of the employees they previously fired. Another 32.7% had to rehire between 25% and 50% of them. In 2024, Sebastian Siemiatkowski, CEO of Klarna, proudly announced that its new chatbot was doing the work of 700 full-time customer service agents. As a result, the fintech company froze hiring and cut hundreds of positions. But by mid 2025, and into 2026, Klarna was scrambling to recruit human agents again because customer satisfaction had plummeted. It turns out, while AI is very good at answering basic questions like how to check an account balance, when faced with complex customer issues that require nuance, the thing usually resorts to the unhelpful, robotic corporate jargon we all know and love.
    • Free AI in IDEs is shifting to paid models Or you know, you could just learn to actually design and code apps, use frameworks to handle the repetitive parts and not use AI at all - and voila... free for life!
    • In a sane world US antitrust laws wouldn't even allow these companies to be in the position to be subjected to EU directives. As you say, better than oligarch nothing.
    • Apple reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027 Good grief, Apple hasn't even released a first folding phone and the Apple faithful is already obsessing over the sequel? Seriously people, go out and touch grass... because this level of obsession is borderline stalkery/neurotic.
