From insider leaks overuse of contractors was what put infinite in the mess it was in the beginning.. so they're just doubling down on using contractors instead of listening to the actual workers. It's a huge shame because right as 343 started to pick up steam with updates Microsoft started firing everyone.
Downgrading should be possible on steam via steam console commands. I noticed large collections on Nexus usually tell you to use some sort of downgrader program but I've always just used the steam console instead and been fine.
They wanted to hear how confident you were in your ability to solve problems with .NET. They didn’t want to hear “aCtUaLlY, nO oNe Is PeRfEcT.”
Yeah, I mean no shit, with hindsight it's obvious they were looking for the 10/10 answer. I was kicking myself for days afterwards because that's the only question I felt I answered "wrong". Tech interviews are such a shit show though that you can start to overthink things as an interviewee. Also, an important aspect of the question that I didn't mention was they specified "1 is completely new, and 10 is working at Microsoft on the .net framework itself". The question caught me off guard. I have literally no idea what working at Microsoft on the framework is like. In that context being a 10/10 felt like being among the most knowledgeable person of c# of all time. Could I work on the framework itself? Idk maybe, I've never thought about it, I don't even know what their day to day is. I should've just said 10/10 though, it was a dev II position to work on a web app, it wouldn't have been that hard.
This is my take on it. Moron evolved to be a more general term associated with anyone acting foolish. It evolved to the point that nobody really associates it as a word targeted directly at intellectualy disabled folks. The r-word was always more commonly understood as "the word you would say to a disabled person if you wanted to hurt them the most". Because of this people who use it weren't/aren't given the benefit of the doubt that they're just being hyperbolic and not actually a bigot directly to disabled people. Why did one evolve to be more hurtful than the other? I'm not sure. There's probably a parallel universe out there where the reverse scenario exists.
Edit: nvm, disregard. just realized this post is 10d old and people already articulated what I intended much better than me.
I played with a person for months in overwatch before I heard their voice. It was because she enjoyed playing with my friends and I and was afraid that we would get all weird when we learned her gender. Thankfully my friends and I aren't dickheads so it all worked out. We continue to play games to this day even, just not overwatch because it sucks and fuck blizzard.
I can't imagine a ton of the people working there give a shit anymore when it seems like thousands of people are being layed off weekly while the company takes in billions in profit
Not sure why you're getting down voted. This is exactly what happened at my last company during the RTO push, senior employees, including me, were leaving in droves and it got bad quickly. As a result the company upped their salaries and offered fully remote work instead of just hybrid to keep people around. The only way a company will listen is if you hit them in their wallets.
I think the maintainer just viewed the bug report as tone deaf. Microsoft is a trillion dollar company and apparently relying on this library without a support contract. Then they a open a high priority bug item. The maintainer saying it's unacceptable is them basically saying they won't prioritize any work unless there's an existing support contract and that they don't do one off payments for bug fixes, which I think is fair.
Yeah with initial disaster at release it's easy to forget they originally promised multiplayer would be added in later and a robust functioning society where each NPC would have a job and routine they follow
I'm in the camp of: I love the first game and was so happy they made a second one that I bought it even knowing all the potential issues. I'm still having a blast in the second one but the issues it has are very real and not defensible imo. I don't recommend anyone buy it because of the issues but damn the gameplay really has its moments and is super awesome at times.
The infuriating thing about dragons dogma has been all the simple things they could fix but didn't. The gameplay and atmosphere is amazing but then Capcom have to shoot themselves in the foot constantly. A friend of mine just lost 8 hours of gameplay because they accidentally clicked "Load from last inn" instead of "load from last save" which apparently overwrites your singular save file and removes any progress you made after resting at that inn.
The singular save file BS was a problem in the first game, why the fuck did they reimplement it in the second game!?
How difficult did you find the process? Over here we basically just go to the store and buy it after a simple background check. Even the background check seems to be avoidable if you do a private gun sale. At least this is how it was described to me by friends who have firearms, I don't own any myself.
I was a big American cheese hater until I had land o' lakes American cheese. Shits actually pretty good
