I had no idea it was even released.

Hacker News works fine. Can’t vouch for the others, since I don’t touch corporate “AI” if I can help it.

There are a whole lot of “templating” libraries which do what you’re asking for. I have used Hiccup for Clojure and Giraffe for F# successfully, and you can probably find others for languages you already know.

Splatoon 1 actually had local multiplayer - it was 2-player only, but for those of us with kids, it was good enough. Split screen multiplayer in Splatoon 2/3 would’ve been great.

Pretty much nothing you said is true, it was not “designed from the ground up to be frustrating” and the other statements are too vague to even bother attacking. “Not even wrong” is the phrase that comes to mind.

You didn’t even mention an example of a game which would count as “something good”.

Thank you for this! Gonna download it ASAP.

This looks great!

Good to know! I’ve been using local testing and fortunately haven’t run into a case where the tests pass local and fail on their servers. Yet.

My most intense solution so far had been a very multi-core Knapsack solution. The tests they provided are pretty minuscule, which probably helped.

I’ve been avoiding Amazon since 2010. No regrets. They crave your time, money, and attention, and they deserve none of those. (Same with Meta.)

Thank you! I hadn’t heard of Qanba before - they definitely have some interesting joysticks.

I’m not into feet specifically, but when I ask for “Veronica Mars in a string bikini” I don’t want to get “Veronica Mars with unattached toes.” It’s distracting AF.

Doesn’t happen with real models, or even human-made hentai.

I’ve been using Linux since 2015, and I run OS updates ASAP. Usually about once every 1 or 2 weeks, if we are only counting system updates. So that’s about 298 updates total, right?

Given your math (298 × 0.3) , you predict that I would have encountered driver issues after an update 89 times.

I have encountered driver issues 0 times.

(This is across 4 computers and 5 distros.)

The tech isn’t there yet. There are so often distracting flaws around the hands/feet. The AI doesn’t really know what a human is, its just endlessly re-combining existing material.

Wait, you thought I was arguing against the idea of OS updates in general? Read better.

I was arguing against the idea that the user has to be forced out of the system while they run updates. This is because I use an OS where the updates run in a window and I can keep working.

(To everyone else: check out this guy’s comment history. He basically came here to do PR for Windows.)

Windows has so much pushy behavior - trying to trick you into using Edge, turning on OneDrive and syncing files in the background (eating bandwidth in the process), locking you out of the machine while OS updates run.

When I switched to Linux Mint in 2015, the most surprising result was how much smoother and frictionless everything became.

I genuinely believe that the “average” user outlined above would be served well by Mint. Why would I not tell people to use it?

My lifehack: block every community with “memes” in its name. You’ll see far fewer memes in general, and be less aggravated when one does show up!

People need and want various levels of abstraction, type system control, and even just syntaxes. In these cases, it’s easier to switch languages - or make one - than to implement a solution in a language that would fight against your needs.

I have my copy! Only made it through the prologue since work+family limits my gaming time, but I like it so far!

“it is developed just to be finished as quickly as possible and that’s it” You answered your own question.

In my experience, there are projects and workplaces where readable, maintainable code is expected and encouraged. Even in mobile development. You’ll find a place that appreciates your approach to coding, over time.

Nice! I will admit to not having played many Survival Rogues so they’re not prominent in my thinking, so I’m glad you mentioned them.
