This man is gonna walk away with a job and a date!

Ofcourse. But that is because the seashells are the obviously superior method. The friction is with the sand and sawdust method.

I imagine actually applying your solution would cause quite some friction.

I already get an internal struggle to scream out of frustration every time I see the mail box of one of my colleagues having 100+ unread mails. Most coming from automated systems like Jira, Jenkins, etc. I funnel all those mails into separate folders, and just click through them once in a while. Or mass mark them as read.

I don't think I could survive 5000 notifications.

I think the point of this post is not to hide the problems we face. More that the struggle against them is not fruitless.

I remember the matches where you transport drop you commander into the enemy base, so both your and their commander blow up inside their base. The hardest part was getting the game rules past the eyes of your friends while setting up the game.

So if Gabe suceeds, we get a gaming ecosystem with different hardware sellers, all using a platform that other software sellers are not blocked from using (Linux)? And the only reason Valve wins, is because they invested into providing the best possible distribution platform on Linux?

This does not make them evil by any standard I know. It just sounds like a solid long term business plan.

I agree that the 'unjust' part is implied here. However, it is certainly not part of any textbook definition of discrimination.

Because the 'unjust' part is implied so often, people have started to change the meaning of the word discrimination. I think that is quite dangerous, given how essential the word is in various constitutions and laws.

Based on screenshots and the publisher, it is safe to say that they are using the Stellaris engine for this. Which does not really have traditional turns. Think RTS with lots of pauzing. The engine is also capable of exploding planets already.

So you are looking for empty gems, so you can fill them with the souls of your "friends", allowing you to call upon them anytime to play more boardgames.

A reasonable goal.

"Ammo conversation", for when you let your guns do all the talking, but you need to express yourself beyond just violence.

Such thoughts can be very Satisfactory indeed.

Not without special support from the hardware and software. But a smartphone is pretty much a PC with specialized hardware and software. And you can certainly plug your smartphone into a PC to share photo's.

What exactly is the threat?

If I read the article correctly, the CEO's statement is effectively saying that employees who refuse to work according to the companies policy, may be fired.

While I agree that it is bad policy, I don't see how this is unlawful policy, nor do I see how enforcing the policy is a threat.

My C++ teacher taught me to be against unions. He made everything class based instead.

This is terrible programming advice.

Valve seems to be pretty consumer friendly. I also have a good experience with a faulty Index getting replaced.

Considering that portals are quite literally linked in a spatial manner, it would make sense that they physically cannot move independantly. Moving the orange portal would also move the blue portal. Or from a different perspective: the portals are always fixed in space, but their surrounds can move.

But that does not make the question shown here untestable. It just means the output portal will have a velocity of it's own.

How to test: place 2 portals next to each other on a wall. Then apply propulsion gel in front of the orange portal. And finally move yourself at high speed through the orange portal.

If your speed is unchanged after exiting the blue portal, but your velocity has been inverted with respect to the direction that the wall is facing, we can conclude option B must hold.

For shits amd giggles, I put a couple of industrial 10W fans in my PC once. That probably still made more noise than this. It also created so much overpressure that I could feel air escaping the tower from every little hole or crack. You could hold a piece of paper to the side of the pc, and see it moving because of the air escaping between the side panel and the main hull.

But if these are normal fans (max maybe 1,5W), then the amount of power drawn will be the same as a couple of hardrives.

Which is have been able to use since we switched to C++17 ... a couple of months ago.
