It's a vague statement. Enormous wiggle room. I think there's a valuable idea somewhere in there about reflecting on the root of a problem, but the conclusion is overly fatalist. It's OK to hold someone accountable even though they are part of something bigger.
What has baffled me the most since yesterday was a vox pop airing on a local (canadian) channel. The journalist had travelled shortly south of the border to Plattsburgh, which is historically blue but has recently been more tight. How the casual Trump supporters remained unfazed was chilling.
One slick office lady explained calmly how the recent judicial events did not relate to Trump’s proposed politics and that therefore it didn’t change her voting intention. Another woman would explain how she prefers to vote for someone honest who speaks his mind, someone that was never involved in politics, so that’s why she’s still intending to vote for Trump (her husband had voted for Biden last election and had apparently regretted it).
It’s somehow way more shocking to witness some very average sounding and looking person make so little sense. Is it the average American news sources messing with people’s minds that much?
Just please don’t be smart ass and choose a non relevant top-level domain because it looks cute. .io is for the British Indian Ocean Territory. .af is for Afghanistan. queer.af actually got taken down by the talibans.
.com and .org are both open TLDs and totally fine. If you’re afraid to be understood as organization, you can go for .com. It’s the default of the web by now.
If your service can be understood as some kind of web application, you could look into .app as well.
Siralim Ultimate is a very special monster collector. The sheer amount of everything is delightfully overwhelming, the depth is nonsensical and the grind is real. I love it.
I have played some of the Avernum games. In my opinion it's peak Jeff Vogel. If you're fine with the graphics, you're in for excellent writing, nicely done non linear exploration and original world building.
Right?! I freaked on the same paragraph. Most depressing thing ever said about game dev. These suits would rather fire everyone and play stonks all day if it earned a dime more. I'm so mad for the massive creative force being crushed by this broken system.
It’s fascinating how s-expressions are both data type and language syntax. Such power. Only other time I saw something remotely like this was XSLT & XML, which I admittedly do not miss one bit.
They sure like to use nondescript generative AI pictures. Can’t figure out what’s under the hood of their "Code Teacher" LLM. Most lessons are behind login.
