  • I'm invested because higher adoption of my preferred platform causes prices of said platform to drop, making the platform economically attractive to develop for.

    Fewer users causes less effort to go into the platform by larger corporations due to lower revenue streams, diminishing updates and feature count over time.

    Eventually, users leave due to pain points not being addressed. Shrinking user bases causes independent developer talent to focus on other platforms since the economics no longer work in the marginal case.

    The shrinking independent developer contributions to the ecosystem make the required effort to develop for it that much higher, since the tools and apps that would have been built weren't.

    Higher development costs slow down feature pacing, due to the increased effort needed to substitute the efforts of missing ecosystem developers.

    Lack of feature cadence drives users to other platforms, shrinking the user base, bringing us back to step 1.

  • It's fine. No metallic taste since it's not a reactive metal. In the microwave you just have to make sure it doesn't contact the edge. You only get arcing of metal when there are sharp points or loops, which aren't present on a disc.

  • Yes. I've never had anything in Europe labeled as "spicy" that wouldn't be outclassed by a mild hot sauce in the US. Closest I've come is an Indian restaurant in London. Also the hot sauce at Nando's was an honorable mention.

    Meanwhile the minimum spice level at the hole in the wall Mexican restaurant down the street in Texas is at the same level and hot enough in the high end that I can't handle it. It's perfect.

  • It's the recommended approach to replace WCF which was deprecated after .NET framework 4.8. My company is just now getting around to ripping out all their WCF stuff and putting in gRPC. REST interfaces were always a non-starter because of how "heavyweight" they were for our use case (data collection from industrial devices which are themselves data collectors).

  • From other discussions I've seen, the guy stepping down was frustrated by having C code rejected that made lifetime guarantees more explicit. No rust involved. The patch was in service of rust bindings, but there was 0 rust code being reviewed by maintainers.

  • There hasn't really been a good vehicular combat game in awhile, like Vigilante 8 or Twisted Metal

    I also noticed there haven't really been any good couch party games besides Mario party; think Crash Bash, Pokemon stadium, fusion frenzy, and the like.
