  • I think it depends what the button function is - if it’s to go to the social channel of the business whose website you’re on, I agree the Contact Us page is the place for them.

    However I think OP is talking about the type that is intended to share the current webpage onto the user’s own socials. That wouldn’t fit on Contact Us, except to share the contact us page :-)

    Agreed about designers doing what everyone else does, but I’d add to that, that it may be client-driven - a lot of clients I’ve worked with see these things on other sites and so assume that they need them too. Even if the designer wanted to remove them, the client would likely insist 😁











  • The caravans in this case are a type known as static caravans - basically the same sort of accommodation as a mobile, towed caravan, but usually bigger and more or less permanently positioned somewhere. They even sometimes have additional casings that hide the wheels underneath to make them look more like houses.

    EDIT, as I didn’t answer your main question. A caravan park is a term used both for something like a trailer park, where customers tow in their own caravan, but also, as in this case, for a holiday park with these static caravans spread around, similar to small lodges.

    Behind the bar - yeah, that’s what they mean here too, the people who serve at the bar. As it’s in a holiday park, it’s likely that it’s a family friendly bar where kids are allowed to be as long as their parents are with them, and can even probably go up and order snacks or soft drinks by themselves. It’s not a bar bar in the usual adults only sense.

    Tragic story :-(








  • Ugh. I’m going to have to seriously look at Linux, aren’t I?

    Absolutely no idea where to start with that, nor whether any of the software I need for work (or indeed anything else) is compatible, not how I’m going to find the time to learn all this.

    Bleugh 😔

    EDIT - Just want to say thanks to everyone for all the helpful tips and advice below. Will make it my mission this summer to at least understand Linux better and work out if it’s for me. Cheers, you lovely people 👍


  • This is not a big deal but it is entirely wrong. Why do I care so much about this?!

    IMO it is a big deal, and you’re right to care.

    Most obviously, and most importantly, this is a big deal because it excludes people who may require the subtitles in order to watch the show.

    But it also points to some sort of speech to tech automation being used and then not checked by a human. Which implies poor quality control and a reliance on machine learning instead of employing someone.
