For me it all depends on how often a project changes. If it’s constantly in flux, I don’t bother remembering any of it because I might not be the last one who touched it. The more you try to remember everything, the more wrong you become due to the successive work of your coworkers.

I hate that it came to this, after so many Rust devs left, but all I can say is “Good.”

I don’t know how some people find the time to do anything but help take care of mom and the baby. I was either sleeping or helping while trying to find time for food.

When your management judges teams by lines-of-code written.

I’m just going to start pronouncing it “The Gulf of MEH-he-co”, really laying on a heavy Spanish accent for clarity.

I feel almost the exact opposite. I don’t feel any progression and I do not enjoy the PvP elements of the game at all. I’m glad that you enjoy it, though.

Edit: by comparison, I’ve recently started playing Deep Rock Galactic and feel a great sense of progression without the game-ending effects of PvP. Losing a ship in Eve is a guaranteed time loss.

I tried GW2, but I’m just not a fan of the graphics. There are also numerous clipping issues throughout the world. With a game as old as GW2, it worries me that simple vertex issues still exist. I need to see what end-game looks like, though. Maybe it’s worth it, idk.

I’ve been playing for the past year and I’m about to quit. It really demands so much time and being on coms. I want an MMO that I can play while I have videos or a movie going on the other monitor.

I’ve wanted to get back into Elite Dangerous but I wasn’t even aware that it was an MMO. What am I missing?

The aliens haven’t yet consumed our planet in this timeline. Consider yourself lucky.

The Majority Report. It’s awesome. https://m.youtube.com/@TheMajorityReport

The runoff voting downside is incorrect, the “drag the voters up to yellow and watch how it makes red win” example. This is not “see how making yellow more popular makes yellow lose”. It’s actually “see how making red more popular than yellow makes red win”. The movement of the voters is not for yellow, but for red and yellow in a way that gives more voters to red.

There is no way for yellow to be the only candidate to get a boost of voters in the demo. If there were, it would only demonstrate further that yellow would still continue to win.

Runoff voting is the way.

They say it just tastes better. idk. I’m going to try it soon.

Someone just suggested to me that I should be putting my chocolate bars in the freezer first. I’ve never heard of this, but apparently it’s a thing that I’ve been missing out on for a while.

So I guess I’m the one who can’t believe that I don’t do it.

I loved both of these games as a kid.

I save “template” SQL queries in a special directory so that I don’t have to google how to do specific things. It’s basically my own personal “examples” folder.

Who is writing SQL in the terminal?

Everyone wore black.

The bit of Clean Code that I read was unimpressive, but Clean Architecture was amazing. I view that book as required reading for anyone who wants to write code professionally. If Uncle Bob hasn’t realized that his coding style is worse than alternatives, I do not see how a second version of the same bad ideas is going to do well.
