I think their main goal in GW2 was to build a "true" MMO instead of GW1's instanced gameplay. I think GW1's build system just wouldn't work very well with that design. It would be difficult to balance world content for groups ranging from 1 to 8 people - many GW1 classes would also have a hard time soloing without picking very specific secondary classes and builds.

So I can see why they went down the route they did. I agree it's a bit of a shame though. Would kill for a GW1 re-release with some updated graphics and QoL improvements.
This is just a tax dodge, right?

So, you're saying that people can get the concept, but only if there's only two or three choices?

I get that choice can be overwhelming, but that generally doesn't change whether people get the concept.
It seems like everything was fine until the last sentence… not bad!

the existence of DuckDB?

you've got an already popular open source tool being extended and built by the guy who helped make BigQuery and people from Snowflake. VCs are going to be willing to throw money at that
The killer feature of cyberattack is that it exposes you to a global market of criminals. If physical access is required, that presumably cuts back on the market size.

In the age of significant ecosystems for stealing devices from network stores to conduct SIM-swaps, complete with intermediate stooges paid to protect the anonymity of higher-ups, it's fair to point out that this split is less clear-cut. Much like network exploitation required mass-market standardization, maybe you could argue that breaking physical security for critical systems isn't quite at that point. On the other hand, if it turns out that everyone follows the same 10-step guide to legal compliance for physical security, we might end up with standardized attacks against that security.
I'm impressed... "DNA Polymerase III"

DNA Polymerase III:

DNA polymerase III is an enzyme that is essential for DNA replication in bacteria.(McHenry, 1988) DNA polymerase III is a complex of 10 different subunits.(Kelman et al., 1995) It is the most processive of the DNA polymerases and is capable of replicating DNA at a rate of 1000 nucleotides per second.

DNA polymerase III is composed of two parts: a core and a holoenzyme. The core is the portion of the enzyme that contains the polymerase activity. The holoenzyme is the portion of the enzyme that contains the proofreading activity.

Structure:
DNA polymerase III holoenzyme is a large complex composed of 10 different subunits, α, β, γ, δ, ε, θ, ι, χ, ψ, and τ. The core is composed of the subunits α, ε, and θ. DNA polymerase III holo

If thats true, it seems like you could make a great optimization pass which chooses a code layout in order to make the program run faster. I wonder how predictable code layout is on performance across different CPUs.

"You only have white belt and black belts and you never wash them"

Old wives tale.

Things don't have to be the way they were 10,000,000 years ago because
"that is the way they did it then."

If that was the case, we would still be diagnosing diseases using the 4 humors in medicine - black bile, blood, phlegm, and yellow bile.

In reality, it is good to give people feedback all the time, and it is good to give people a new belt as soon as they can do different levels of actions for each level. It's incentive to have a new belt every 2 or 3 months. It is a physical representation of progress.

I've read this a few times and don't get his analogy of martial arts belts to all companies are fucked up. It doesn't follow at all. I guess it means when you first start working after you graduate, you start at a white belt level and you keep working on getting into more fucked up companies as you go along until you find the one that is just as fucked up as you are in the same way you are, but this doesn't make sense because you also have levels of black belts - a 1st degree black belt is the same as a white belt to a 5th degree black belt. You never stop learning and getting better and higher belts. So I guess you need to keep finding more and more fucked up and worse companies for your whole life??? That fit you even better??? Because you learn to find more fucked up companies the more you practice finding fucked up companies?

I don't get what this guy is even talking about.
Globalisation is slowly but steadily dying. These measures are ridiculous. Reciprocating on the steady slow down to the 1970s again.

Simple everyday things like "my transit flight is cancelled and now I have to stay a night over in Europe" will become "I will now stay at the airport instead of being able to get a hotel steps outside the terminal" because you didn't apply for authorisation beforehand

Ah, I see where the size standardization could be valuable. I was thinking only of quality, and everything I've read (and I don't mean I just went to wikipedia ;-), though they do actually agree) suggested that a trade paperback was closer to a paper bound version of the original hardback, up to and including the size and everything, and built consistently to a higher standard than a mass market version.
> MOST SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE ARE JUST A WALKING ANXIETY DISORDER HARNESSED FOR PRODUCTIVITY.

Gender is a social construct in that various 'gender typical behaviours' don't necessarily correlate with sex between cultures. That implies it is a learnt behaviour.

In a society where someone of the male sex is pressureed to be male gendered there will be a larger correlation between gender and sex. Which would mean miracle balding cures would do better targeting the male gender if they don't have the inofrmation to target the male sex.

The second is questioning the validity of current copyright terms. The argument for authors continuing to receive royalty payments many years after publishing something is based on copyright law, however current copyright law is the author's entire life plus 70 years (IIRC), which is ludicrous. Even in the age of sailboats this was considered ridiculously excessive and unnecessary.

So look at the reverse: why is even 20 years necessary? For software, that's ridiculously long. If it weren't for pirates, we wouldn't have a lot of older software (like old DOS games) any more because of these copyright terms.
Putin also didn't want to go to war over Donbas; he wanted to just take it and walk away like with Crimea. But here we are. Leaders rarely want war for its own sake.

I think your sarcasm may have clouded the point you’re making :) I’m not sure what you’re getting at. Browser zoom generally does a much better job at overflow than font size scaling.
The flying is easier, in the sense that it takes you long distances quickly and easily and relatively inexpensively, compared to what it took to travel such distances in most of human history.

The border controls, I think you are simply incorrect. For most of human history in most places, if someone had the material means to go somewhere, nobody would keep them out, there were no documents, fingerprints, or fees. For most humans across most of human history there weren't even such things as borders.

At any rate, the OP is saying that it will soon require more than a swipe of the passport for Americans to get into the UK; and the comment I was responding to that it already does for British to get into USA.
You are conflating time-samples with ensembles. That lecture refers to finite time series which may be shown to converge for N < infinity. That’s fine.

How I wish there was a company that did something similar to monstrosity Android development abd build tools are. Nonetheless it’s an excellent news. While I won’t call it a monstrosity Git was so untenable and obtuse that I only used it because everybody else used it.
> The UK really, really doesn't want tourists.

While I agree wiih this sentiment over all after my time in the UK, don't Ukranins get he special arrangement due to the war, as in they can enter under refugee status? I'm not saying that is ideal, and I've seen what it takes for Ukrainians to enter the US under that policy, but it is possible.

I was supposed to go to the UK last summer '21 flying from the EU as a US citizen, during the supposed relaxed COVID restrictions in the UK you needed not just a negative covid test to board the plane, but also a tracking document that I had not completed moments before boarding began. It stipulated many things, in addition to testing upon arrival and then details about where you were staying and more testing etc...

It was a nightmare, and I'm sad to say that the World hasn't gone any saner since then; I'm guessing with tall the influx of illegal mass migration from France deal that was just brokered between the two may have set some things in motion.
Thanks for pointing this out. I did fall for the “all families are messed up” meme, but it seems obvious now that there’s a continuum, some really bad, some really good, a lot in the middle.
Great points, my thoughts:

* Direct positive results, absolutely yes. The problem I've found here is that if you are 95% good at this, you are still failing and someone is very upset they got missed/jilted, and you're none the wiser until they take some action based on that.
* Our environment we pitch as 'volunteering is a great way to pick up new skills'. Do you think theres value in 'gamification' ie, issuing badges or collectable somethings to indicate skills gained? We cant officially certify you as a book-keeper but we can teach you how to operate xero for example. Useful as kudos, maybe marginally as a resume padder.
* We do a lot of this, it works okay-ish. It's hard to get 'full compliance', ie you give a volunteer ownership of an area, theres fun parts and not fun parts and weirdly enough the not fun parts get missed every month...
* Historically we've been terrible at letting go but we are getting better and better. The geek social fallacies are very very strong.
* This last point feels like going to the dentist. I know i need to floss more <insert excuse>. You're 100% right though, hyperfocusing on the onboarding and training should probably be one of our highest priorities because its making every other fire downstream bigger.

Are you able to provide examples of how you've done these points in your organisation from an implementation perspective?
I think the original poster was referring to staging the commit as their "thinking" step, not composing the message.

Personally, my workflow is to make many changes, then use `add -p` and `commit` to create a series of small commits. While staging, you might decide that you don't want to commit some bit of code and `restore -p` to toss it away.

I think your workflow would work well if you see commits as "development checkpoints" rather than semantic patches. It's not an invalid workflow, just a different one.

I'm sure you could configure VSC to be analogously ergonomic for any git workflow. But people who are comfortable with git and their shell of choice tend to develop comfortable workflows in the terminal as well.

It's super confusing because the graph of github stars vs day shows days that haven't happened yet this month. A lot of the information in the article is presented in a way that makes it hard to see the context.
And a face scan when you're going through the gates, which is better than fingerprints and iris scans these days, given the improvements made in LIDAR.

This sounds like the AI "did its own research" using Facebook.
For "an astronaut riding a horse" the system is filtering/selecting but nowhere does it understand (or claim to understand) horses or astronauts. It's giving you an image that "syntactically" agrees with other images that have been tagged horse/riding/astronaut.

The amazing bit is that we are happy to accept the image. Look closely at such images - they're always "wrong" in subtle but important ways, but we're happy to ignore that when we interpret the image.
Has Biden admitted he was wrong?
We have learnt these lessons the hard way, repeatedly, until maybe some of it has sunk in.

I've lost count of how many times i've pointed out that you cannot put good and bad actions on a scale and try to balance them. Good actions are good in one pile, and bad actions are bad in their own pile, and that pile has to stay real, real small. Conflict avoidant people who are new (to you, ie me the 10yr veteran vs the 3yr 'newbie') really, really struggle with 'ostracising'.

Our code of conduct is pretty average tbqh. Do you have any examples of ones that you would consider exemplary or have particularly interesting points or approaches?
I only read on my kindle and yet I have a room full of shelves overflowing with physical books. Most of the justification for those books and shelves is so my kids have a place to wander into and browse around if they want something new to read.

Alas, I have yet to get them to show any interest in browsing the shelves. My daughter reads all the time but isn't interested in "old stuff". I'm holding out hope that she'll get to it when she's older. I recently told her that as far as I'm concerned there are no age limits for books and she can read anything she wants, that seems to have made her a little more curious.

It's my quiet little sadness. My love of Tolkien and Holmes and golden age mysteries and sci-fi is all due to the books scattered throughout home. I'd like to share those with her but I know that I can't push it.

Where did I say I distrusted anything based merely on Elon Musk saying it? I gave a few reasons why what he claimed should be taken with a huge grain of salt. His own history is a pretty strong recommendation in that regard.

Comparing BlueWalker to Starlink v2 makes no sense, unless you think SpaceX is going to be putting that huge phased array on every v2 satellite they put in the sky? It's a different technology entirely.

Now, maybe Elon was hinting at an impending acquisition? :). That would certainly be on character for him.

And I walked into the US in 2022 after presenting valid US passport and following all border related law, was strip searched, was x-rayed (or some weird x-ray looking machine, idk what it was to be honest), was placed into detention for 16 hours (as in tossed in a cell), was shackled, was cuffed, taken to two hospitals against my will while CBP officers told insane lies to doctors suggesting there were drugs up my ass, was forced to perform bodily functions in front of officers (repeatedly), and at the end I was left in medical debt when CBP put the bills in my name. For the record, I denied consent to everything including medical care. I am still in debt to this day for this incident.

In the end I was dumped at the border, along with an ex-post-facto warrant of complete fabrications used to get a judge to sign off AFTER THE FACT AND AFTER EXECUTION of the 'medical' searches they initiated. No evidence of a crime was ever found, no truthful probable cause or even articulable suspicion ever existed. I found out later this was part of a systematic pattern of abuse by CBP [0].

This was a such a bizarre move for Warcraft III - a game that was 18 years old when Reforged came out. I kind of get OW2 more: it's basically a F2P patch, like what happened with TF2 or Evolve. If they had just said OW is going F2P it's what I would have expected - the weirdest part is calling it a sequel at all.

But Warcraft III feels like it's from a completely different era, so it's kind of shocking that they replaced it with Reforged. It's like if Valve patched CounterStrike 1.6 so that it's just CS: GO with shittier graphics.
The issue here is with DRM and having to move across storage media. I still have ebooks as text files from 20 years ago that I got off the Gutenberg project, and tons of EPUBs which are guaranteed to be readable since they are just zipped up HTML/XHTML files and not proprietary. For that matter I have Pascal code from high school in the early 90s sitting around on floppy drives and then later hard drives.
