  • Unironically I'd bet he scored with that bio

  • Voyager is pretty good but mr. Voyager developer, for the love of god, add some left-right margin! I don't know why but this makes me irrationally angry to the point I simply can't use Voyager

  • Eh, I'm gonna play the devil's advocate here but when I thought about it, I'd say it's more like a human nature or common sense. I can imagine a person who feels excited by posting spicy pictures online in 2011 and then realizing "You mean people are willing to pay for this shit?"

  • I call bullshit

  • macro

  • Don't want to be a buzzkiller but what other war was started by attacking Poland besides WW2?

  • I see the next BF will be developed by Dice and 4 other teams? Well I wish them luck on good cooperation but that sounds really scary team-wise.

    But who knows, maybe it'll help. Because Dice is ... ok well I'm old so I don't know if this is still true but I remember them as one of those studios that just keeps fucking things up. Bugs on bugs. Them and Creative Asembly (Total War). But as I said, I'm old, not sure how things look now

    Bonus rant: But boy, I remember one bug they introduced in BF3 with one patch. The bug was that the under-barrel shotgun attachement didn't have its own damage, but took the damage from main weapon i.e. 12 pellets x 25 HP = 300 HP. I mean, shit happens but how much of a mess there's in the code that this happens? I'd genuinely love to see that code. And! And! That testers don't catch it during testing! How? That it flows through all the stages up to the production. Do you even have some tests? Is there a QA team? And I know I'm not crazy because as a follow up, the EA tried to step in to put things in order. Rant over

  • Subjective answer but if I were in your situation: me and King going alone? No. If I don't like the person, then I don't like the person, I'm sorry. Social gatherings are fine and I'd do my best. But going somewhere for hours with a person I don't like sounds like a nightmare.

    There are a lot of favors I'd do for my kids but there's a limit and for me as an introvert this is the limit

  • In my opinion yes, unfortunately. It'll suffer from Gartner hype cycle soon but it'll recover and will slowly get better every year to the point it's really good.

    The worst thing is that I don't see any "stop sign". Like f.e. with self driving cars it was kind of obvious that it'll get ridiculously complex in real life situations, thus having a problem with legislation and mass adoption. But with AI? I don't know, I don't see any stop sign ... Maybe that it never reaches this high mark we all expect?

  • small tasks that you don’t expect to grow in complexity

    On one conference I heard saying: "There is no such thing as temporary solution and there is no such thing as proof of concept". It's an overexaguration of course but it has some truth to it - there's a high chance that your "small change" or PoC will be used for the next 20 years so write it as robust and resilient as possible and document it. In other words everything will be extended, everything will be maintained, everything will change hands.

    So to your point - is bash production ready? Well, depends. Do you have it in git? Is it part of some automation pipeline? Is it properly documented? Do you by chance have some tests for it? Then yes, it's production ready.

    If you just "write this quick script and run it in cron" then no. Because in 10 years people will pull their hair screaming "what the hell is hapenning?!"

    Edit: or worse, they'll scream it during the next incident that'll happen at 2 AM on Sunday

  • What? Where I live pissing directly into watter is like the opposite. As my roommate once said: "Didn't your father taught you how to piss or what?"

  • I love how UK has so many of these weird traditions that just went too far and now everyone just feels bad to stop it

  • So "terrorism" equals "middle eastern"?

  • I'm not even sure if that bingo is supposed to be pro-vegan or anti-vegan ...

  • I guess I went full circle since I returned back to classic ones. I used electric one for years but suddenly I started to feel with my tongue that it didn't do good job. Changing the head didn't help. My dentist was also surprised but she suggested to try to use also classic one when I finish with electric. And voila, it really did the job. To this day I'm not sure what happened ...
