  • Backend code, basically what is ran on the server and manages user requests, database interactions, etc.. Frontend is the user end, so managing input, displaying information from server requests, etc. and is in the form of an app or website page.

  • There is a reason they deactivated the accounts, but it doesn't justify removing the ability to migrate at any time. For those interested:

    The old mojang accounts were not secure, and there were millions of accounts that could be accessed without email ownership. This created a grey market for cheap Minecraft accounts. These cheap accounts were almost exclusively used to cheat on non-cracked servers, which sucked for a lot of players who did competitive Minecraft games on servers. The migration did fix this problem, by requiring access to the original email or answers to the security questions. Migrating your mojang account also gave access to the windows 10 version of the game. It probably should have been allowed forever, and I have no clue why they didn't.

  • That is a really good point, and there isn't a one answer first all. If you're looking for a mobile app, then you could do Android studio or Swift for IOS. If you only want to develop one app for both, then maybe you should just do an electron app that is essentially just a website.

    These tools will either have a visual interface editor, markdown language (like html), or a way to define visual components in code. After programming an app you can build, which will give you the appropriate executables for the different platforms.

    If you're looking to start simple, then use something like pygame to learn the basics of using a visual interface.

  • I know you're probably joking, but for anyone interested: Inflation is an increase of pricing for goods and services, and usually increases 1-3% per year.

    Price gouging is the grocery store going "inflation has been terrible, so 30% increases store wide is necessary" when the real inflation over the past 3 years is actually 6-7% total. Now this isn't necessarily just on the grocery store, the suppliers could have pulled the inflation card or the supplier's suppliers, etc.

    You can check which company is price gouging by seeing if they are having record breaking profits for the year. Sometimes companies actually do what it takes to make profit, but something like a grocery store should just be consistent and only increase with population or cost saving measures.

  • It's called shorting. At a high level you're basically betting on the stock going down (which is the opposite of buying a stock where you want it to go up). Normally you can only lose the amount of money you put in with stocks, but for shorting you may lose an "unlimited" amount of money depending on how high the price goes up (it's dependent on how much the stock goes up, but no stock goes up forever).

    Shorting is a big part of the GME spike. Large trading firms were shorting the shit out of gamestop and so when WSB bought stocks en masse it lead to almost bankruptcy for some companies.

    Not financial advice for obvious reasons

  • A lot of the time you aren't actually paying for the license afaik. If you look at a pre built and spec it out on PC part picker, the pre built can often come at a lower price bc the PC is subsidized with payment from the bloatware that is pre installed (think McAfee). Microsoft also sells the licenses in bulk to the store for huge discounts. Windows business model is a lot more about selling you 365 and your data than the operating system.
