my guess is the software equivalent is the architect role - basically someone high level that doesn’t code much but does design the overall way that systems interact (or, to put it redundantly, designs the architecture of the full system)
however i don’t know if this term is en vogue as much anymore except for very large scale businesses (i would bet money that banks employ architects, for example)
is he required to be in court for his criminal trials?
is this a self-reported number? or should we really take it at face value and believe it’s accurate?
I really just wanna see the judge eviscerate this “no victims” defense BS. We do NOT wait for someone to be hurt to enforce the law. Can you imagine how many speeding tickets would be pled out of if this was a legitimate defense?
Even if you scope it down to the case at hand, we’d keep letting people commit financial fraud until the bank is finally harmed. And guess what happens when banks get fucked? The govt uses the common people’s tax dollars to bail them out.
why does that initiative “only” need 383k signatures when the abortion initiative needs 600k? i’m assuming they don’t already have 220k signatures to explain the offset
one last gift with a final check and a letter congratulating them on making it to the real world. i think one of my aunts was still sending me stuff but i got a letter from my uncle i think telling me i’d made it to the real world. at some point the gifts felt nice but we’re also kinda pointless so I totally appreciated the letter and the congrats.
edit: i also agree with the other comment tho. if you see something that makes you think of someone, by all means buy them a gift! but you don’t have to force something every year
fair changes, but the ONLY way forward is to fire riccitello. i don’t see how anyone can trust them again until that happens.
removal of the retroactivity piece will likely appease a large number of devs tho (dunno if it’ll be the majority but that was the biggest wtf for me)
there’s already some devious levels from the community :)
i was also happy to see it’s got new levels from the devs too - had originally thought it was only gonna contain rebuilds of existing ones
wtf…can you charge someone with union busting when they run an entirely different company? this is particularly brazen of him…
feels like a warning shot against tesla workers for sure.
are unity and unreal so different that your 10 years of experience in one isn’t helpful for the other? i’m not a game developer but I had assumed it was similar to web frameworks - definitely high switching costs for porting an existing project, but as a developer looking for a job there are still many portable skills.
i’d guess it also depends on what parts of the engine you are working in?
Will definitely check this one out (I think it’s coming to ps+ premium or whatever the 2nd tier is and gamepass), but I swear that article read like 2 different people wrote it between the first and second halves.
With all the emphasis they seemed to have running up to release on how they crafted the environments and moving through them I’m a little disappointed there doesn’t sound to be much in the way of exploration. But the combat system sounds unique so I’ll play it just to experience that aspect alone.
really glad we got to hear about a straight up comparison against space exploration. i’ll admit i was hoping they’d go a different direction (i’ve seen people mention going underwater which i think would have been a ton of fun and a guaranteed differentiator from anything currently available)
all that aside, the most interesting parts for me are the engine changes:
a year away tho! that’s okay, we’ll live, i just got sucked back into satisfactory (playing sf+ which is basically bobsangels for sf and it’s GLORIOUS).
i know all us diehards will pick it up sight unseeen, but unless there’s something flashy, like a graphical overhaul (which i’m not sure the diehards would be in favor of), i do wonder how it will stand out and attract the newer players that have been playing the newer automation games and might only look at factorio skin-deep and not get as excited for.
and i’m okay with all that, but i also want their work to be appreciated by as many people as possible so here’s to hoping they can nail the marketing
ahhh. i thought for sure he was suing the fleshlight manufacturer!
as another middle-aged person who’s been dealing with a lot of the issues both you and OP mentioned - do you have any tips for task paralysis? that’s the one that has had the biggest impact on me (as a former workaholic in particular)
yeah I really miss the game-specific subs that always crop up on reddit. Been playing remnant 2, and the two lemmy communities I found are empty save for 1 post while reddits remnant sub is thriving :/
also I miss my metroidvania sub. Small price to pay, I try not to touch reddit but I have been peeking in at the remnant sub just to see what people think about the game
can we take bets on what a “tweet” will be called now? my bets on “chi” (pronounced kai)
weird. i totally just see a half-human half-cat with her leg/foot flipped back
When I read the post I was initially focused on google search but man….if gmail were to die, the pile-on effects would be seriously catastrophic and it would take a very long time for things to stabilize again. It’s not just personal emails that are handled by gmail - their corporate offerings are used by a ton of companies, and there are plenty of school districts as well that rely on it for their email (and thus associated logins). If you’ve ever worked near education, you know what a cluster that would be as all the IT departments scrambled to figure out who would be responsible for a migration.
I don’t really see it happening, but it’s very scary to think about what would happen if gmail were to fall.
edit 4: thanks for the gold kind stranger! i’ve never gotten an award before!!!
(real edit: i have short term memory and forgot your first edit acknowledged the gold…)
This isn’t the dems fault, and I don’t think this would have worked (the republicans probably would have chickened out), but in a dream scenario where politics wasn’t politics, I would have liked to see a coalition of both sides come together to elect someone like Emmer (hopefully I got that name right). He was the best solution the dems were ever gonna get, and personally I would have had a lot of respect for dems swallowing their pride and voting for him to keep the far right from taking control.
Of course, it’s all moot as long as the house keeps that awful single person can vote to vacate rule on the books. The far right would have just taken turns with movements to vacate and create a different flavor of turmoil.
All that said, it’s not the dems fault we are here - it’s the fault of the freedom caucus, the party that let those people become candidates, AND the people that voted for them.
