Well it's a 70 times improvement so the developer gets a 70 times bonus. Or at least all the money that would be wasted without this fix.

Or is the world unfair and are developers nowadays just cogs in a capitalistic machine?

Soon hopefully.

Don't get me wrong; I fully support Ukraine.

But it's very different from EU countries and still has a long way to go according to the Copenhagen Criteria. 2 big reasons would be no active war or border conflict, and also a fair democracy. The war is obvious. The democracy is most likely not up to standards because of the Russian influence since 2014. So Ukraine would first have to clean house.

Too old? I don't know this term.

This should win an award for hardest try of rewriting the narrative.

Would speed up crosswalks a lot too. Whenever I cross a crosswalk with my dog I don't want to risk me misjudging the braking of cars so I tend to really wait until I'm sure they're stopping.

Steel is actually a good thing to tariff. China has been dumping a shit ton of steel on the global market and it hurts manufacturers in many other countries. In most countries these tariffs would be inacted because of antidumping rulings to protect the markets. They are common and quite fair. Then during the process it mostly changes towards a minimum price instead. (Like what European countries are doing regarding cheap EVs from China)

To tariff all steel instead of just the cheap steel is amazingly stupid tough. But that's the amazing mind of Trump TM.

Meanwhile in the Netherlands:

There are no reports of Israel or Russia using ArduPilot though.

I learned a lot of English by playing Runescape.

Why do people attribute decisions like that to the competence of the programmers?

Because supporting multiple platforms, especially in gaming, isn't magic or rocket science and almost always comes down to the setup of the toolchain.

This is a business decision

Very possible. But I go by their actual statement: "maintaining the native build across many distros was taking time away from developing new content". My point is regarding the "maintaining [...] across many distros" and not the "taking time away". A good toolchain would make these differences extremely minimal.

hundreds or thousands of hours logged for tasks related to supporting Linux

Extremely unlikely. That would mean more than 10 developers working fulltime purely on Linux support since the release of the game. According to their team page on their website they have 7 developers in total.

every build going out to tens of thousands of active players needs to be tested

This is why experienced developers decouple the game from the platform specific stuff and test them separately.

The game is made in Unity so most of the platform specific stuff should already be production ready. Unity literally markets their engine as "Industry-leading multiplatform support" with the motto "Create once, ship anywhere".

So my argument still stands. And as I said, it's not a bad thing. The only thing I dislike is the indirect implication of Linux being a hassle when it would be nicer if they would take more responsibility for it.

I hope the drone that ends Putler will come out of a wooden toilet shed.

The fix is to chmod it all to 777.

As a cross platform developer I consider this incompetence.

That's not necessary a bad thing. The world is full of less experienced programmers. But they're making it look like it's a hassle to release for Linux when in reality you can foresee and plan for this from the start, without much overhead down the line.

I'm sure this is an /s but Europe also has decent sick day rules.
