Yeah, i do hope it hurts their reputation and game sales. I think we 99% agree. Hopefully this results in better games without ethical lapses in the future.

I would be sad for the good artist and developers at bungie to loose their jobs. Hopefully they are more careful and the artist ends up happy with the result of their talks.

Welcome friend

I always read someone talking about picking up Factorio like they are they are casually announcing they are starting experimenting with narcotics. Have fun! Make a plan to quit before it breaks up your family.

MariaDB is a mysql based product like the Percona stuff right? I assume most users would switch to MySQL proper.

Postgres is often a better choice, but not an easy one for shops already in the mysql world.

Ah maybe my perspective is wrong. I didn’t know this is how the EU does it. Does this rule apply to plastic or fabric as well? Or maybe only plastic used for food? regulating recycled plastic that is used for food makes a ton of sense to me.

We found 191 pesticides, 107 pharmaceuticals and 81 industrial compounds among many others in the recycled plastic pellets.

This sentence seems so meaningless. Things being pesticides or pharmaceuticals doesn’t make them harmful and even if they are harmful, are they in concentrations that matter for humans?

The science article they link: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adk9846

Uses much better more meaningful language to describe the same problem! It is also much shorter and easier to read.

This article quotes the “1/3 of 1%” number for large scale property investors. Seems like the vast majority of property buys are still people that intend to live there, though the “49% of 26%” (btw why are all the statistics in these weird formats???) are 1-9 property owners”mom and pop” investors. That number is actually way bigger than i thought. I could see this being a problem is some locations more than others though. That might make the problem feel bigger in some areas.

Dang! I am glad it is so good. I loved the original, but was worried the reviews would be, “not enough new innovation”. Very glad they didn’t fall in that trap.

My guess is people can always find someone to tell them what they want to hear. So much easier to be “operating based on the best information you have” than lie knowingly.

I wish they where less common, but it does seem like a good idea to do some challenges before interviewing especially for low to mid level jobs. There are a number of good sources. I like "Project Euler". a lot of the popular options like hackerrank or codesignal are very gamified. Go for it if that is your thing, but i find scores and points feel very dehumanizing for me.
