But on an unproven new IP? That’s unusual. Like Split Fiction is popular, so it worked out, but they must have been putting in a fair amount of work on the prayer that it was well received. Also it took them a decade to get around to producing The Last Of US adaptation, one of the most acclaimed and narratively rich video game properties of its time. I haven’t played Split Fiction yet, but it is my understanding that it is fun, looks great, has some cool set pieces, but the story is not super interesting. To recreate and expand on that narrative seems like an odd choice then.

The game released like 6 weeks ago and it already has a film deal with a director and lead actor attached? What the hell?

‘#include cpptrace’ gays drawing dick outlines over here.

So… I was just trying to be funny and sarcastic. I added the “/s” as I realized someone was probably going to take me seriously, but probably after you loaded my comment. My bad.

Everyone is making this same joke now. “They’re going to tariff my imports now!” “My PR got flagged for DEI because they thought ‘#include dr_libs’ was about hiring communist physicians.” “If I import pandas do I have to pay 145% more now?” Jeez. Enough already. /s

Why can’t anyone tell an original joke anymore?! Like a steak joke. You almost never hear someone tell a good joke about steaks. It really is a rare medium well done.

Ayn Rand made a good point here as long as you exclude the context of what she considered good and evil.

For context, Ayn Rand’s “good” includes unfettered capitalism, personal wealth, individualism, and oligarchy. Her “evil” includes industrial regulations, charity, social responsibility, and democracy. That certainly puts a different flavor on her statement, doesn’t it?

Really went downhill after volume 3. You hope that they’ll get back on course by volume 6 at least, but alas.

Not if it is filled to the brim with 3 TB of porn

Horseshit. Computers aren’t tools for a software engineer. Computers are tools to an administrator, an accountant. Computers are the sandbox you are building castles in as a software engineer. If you don’t understand the system upon which you build, its abilities and features, its limitations, it’s dependencies, you are going to make some stupid mistakes.

You need to understand discrete mathematics as a consequence of computer computation. You need to understand parallel processing and threading for muli-core processors. You need to understand networking, package management, security vulnerabilities, etc. from different architectures and protocols. And it ALWAYS helps to understand the very basics of a computer’s functioning, from hardware, CPU architecture, machine code, assembly/low level programming, memory management, etc.

print('Hello, World!) is day one shit for a reason. Programming language and logic is the basics. The real expertise comes from your 3rd and 4th year materials. Databases, architecture, theory of computation, discrete mathematics, networking, operating systems, compilers, etc.

My CS degree had a hardware/IT support class, but A) it was entirely simulation based. We never touched any actual hardware. We “built” PC’s or identified physical issues in 3d sim software, set up RAID arrays in software, etc. B) it was super hand holdy and you only ever go over a problem once, so nothing on the class has stuck. I know much more from having built, troubleshot and maintained my own computers and network than I ever learned from that class, then learned more by doing in an actual IT support position before becoming an engineer.

This shit sounds like when your mom tells you that the Facebook printed out her bank statement on the fax machine. I’m not smart enough to even guess how you did something dumb enough to make that happen.

How bad are you at writing queries? How does your hard drive overheat even under 100% load? Do you have it smothered under a blanket? Did you crack it up and expose it to cheeto dust? What does running a query on your, presumably, remote database even have to do with your harddrive in the first place? Are you trying to copy the entire database locally to a laptop? Do you know how to tie your shoes yet, or are you still on the velcro?

Paas Easter Egg strategy.

They’ll justify stuff like that by telling you they sold it to you at a discount price because the ads offset your costs. That’s what Amazon did with the cheap tablet I bought for my wife.

You don’t need to be allergic to advertisement to want avoid shit like this. The fucking audacity of companies these days. There is no place they won’t try to shove these damn things to the detriment of every product, service, and personal moment. If they could put screens under your eyelids you’d have to watch drug ads one blink at a time and your dreams would be sponsored by AT&T.
