The only time period I can even think of that _might, maybe_ qualify would be the Source mod era, but that came and went over a decade ago. And of course they were free mods, not standalone games with purchases or licenses.

Some of these mods turned into games later (Chivalry, Black Mesa, Insurgency come to mind) but without investigating I'm not sure they even use Source anymore.
Alternatives to this exist, such as: https://github.com/barcoderdev/unitypackage_godot
That's what they keep saying, but other projects seem to be able to get stuff built just fine if they are paying market rates.

From what I hear, they are being extremely tight with their budget, while simultaneously demanding aggressive timelines. These things are for the most part, mutually exclusive.
That response is more reasonable. I would put it more politely, but I agree on the substance.
Even if it weren't restricted, what is the advantage to the average consumer? What benefit does a thermal camera offer that would make it being built in as a standard phone feature economically justifiable?
Sure, but at the time they showed real interest in becoming a mainstream game engine, showed some cool advanced projects, and had a few years to try out, why did the give up if there was hype?
I purchased a 13 mini, but in retrospect I think the SE is the better device
I care. I'm not a videographer, I don't use iCloud and I transfer via cable all the time.

USB-C is a major selling point for me, primarily for data transfer speeds.
No meaningful chemical filtration can happen with any appreciable production rate with gravity alone. I suspect this "filter" is itself a glorified, overpriced Brita taste filter using activated carbon granules that cannot filter anything real.

I'm cleaning and refurbishing by mom's 6-stage RO system on Sunday. Oh the joys of sourcing specialty components.
That's because those platforms provide instant gratification, which attracts people with too much time. Busy, conscientious people are not going to loiter around and repeatedly answer questions that newbies ought to be able to solve on their own with proper tools (i.e., not Discord, Slack or IRC).
The problem with lossy compression in a competition is that in order to compare different approaches to lossy compression you have to define a metric for the quality of different lossy reconstructions of the data. This is practically impossible to do in an unbiased way. As soon as you define a quality metric then the competition becomes cheating the metric instead of useful compression.

So how do you define a metric that can't be cheated? You add an arithmetic coder after your lossy compressor, which turns it into a lossless compressor, and the size of the losslessly compressed data is your metric for the quality of your lossy compressor. It's the only metric that definitively can't be cheated.
Must we beat this dead horse, AGAIN!?
So like IRC? It's not like this was a new problem, we've had this problem in the past. Not everybody liked mailing lists/forums 20 years ago either.

Referring to "cisgender" itself delegitimizes anything else they had to say. Humans cannot change sex and I'm frankly quite sick of hearing about this gender bullshit entirely.
I won't be.

Out of all the big tech companies out there, Amazon is the one that delivers the most value to me. I have my gripes with them, but overall I pay them and they send a product I want to my house and that's it.

I am also not fond of unions and understand their position. Them trying to prevent unions from forming in their company isn't something I'm up in arms about, I'd do the same thing if I ran a big company.
Thanks! Oh geez, this is embarrassing. When I started the company I meant for it to be called : DO SAY GO...but somehow in the incorporation form I accidentally transposed it. I guess it still happens! :) haha

It's doubly bad because as unique as dosyago is, I think I still prefer the name dosaygo. I don't know how to change it tho! :..(

I’ve done it in different communities. I don’t think it should be discouraged even though it can seem strange. There’s a person who wants their question answered, and someone who wants to answer it. Why make the sever worse by stopping it?

At times, they might be wrong, but they’re going to realize they’re a problem if they’re always wrong. I do think sometimes incentives seem misaligned, like, I was in an enterprise linux related community, where their income is related to providing support to enterprise customers. In that scenario, it seemed like someone answering questions for free could be problematic to their business.

I don’t know, I don’t think it’s an issue, but I’ve noticed it does seem strange being that person.

> No fan of Westerns...

As I understood it, McMurtry wasn't either. He wanted to write a story about people living miserable lives, so he chose the Old West setting because he thought it suited his aim. The surprise came when Lonesome Dove was a hit with people who liked Westerns. Although McMurtry's attitude toward the genre wasn't what Western fans normally wanted, the writing was just so good that it drew you in.

With the tremendous popularity of the book, McMurtry was pressed to write sequels. My impression was that he resented having to write in a genre he didn't care for, and this is what influenced him to make the sequels increasingly bleak.
Whether or not you agree, a lot of people do. There is a trivial sense in which a perfect compression algorithm is a perfect predictor (if it ever mispredicted anything, that error would make it a sub-optimal compressor for a corpus that included that utterance), and there are plenty of ways to prove that a perfect predictor can be used as an optimal actor (if you ever mispredicted the outcome of an event worse than what might be fundamentally necessary due to limited observations or quantum shenanigans, that would be a sub-optimal prediction and hence you would be a sub-optimal compressor), a.k.a. an AGI.

Where a lot of us get off the fence is when we remove "perfect" from the mix. I don't personally think that performance on a compression task correlates very strongly with what we'd generally consider as intelligence. I suspect good AGIs will function as excellent compression routines, but I don't think optimizing on compression ratio will necessarily be fruitful. And I think it's quite possible that a more powerful AGI could perform worse at compression than a weaker one, for a million reasons.
Wikipedia mentions that is one of the medical uses of boric acid.
That’s even better. Why would anyone post on a forum when learning the minutiae of the Discord API and its strict TOS conditions in order to implement functionality that’s broken in the client while avoiding getting banned is an option? It’s a dead simple solution!
Some degree of informational amensia is a good thing. We've all hit the "I need to do X, but every page on google tells me how to X in Version N-1, and it doesn't work like that any more".
In my experience with close to 500GB of files - mostly smaller image files - transferred over lightning using ifuse, 2-4MB/s is closer on average.
I think I read it ends up being close with solar heat still winning. The panels have a range of effectiveness and the heat pump isn't always 400%. The solar thermal is cheap too so even if efficiency were superior with PV panels it would still only be useful if you just had a massive excess of wattage.
My point is that if a court finds that a generated image is indeed similar enough to constitute an infringement when a subscriber of for instance MidJourney attempts to publish it, has that work not already been "published" to the subscriber? And has MidJourney not profited by gaining a subscriber based on the work of others?
I have been using Sublime Text for about 8 years now, I have tried multiple different editors in the mean time including VS Code, Atom, Fleet and I always went back to Sublime Text.

After years of using ST for free, I finally bought a license about two years ago when ST 4 came out, I am also a paid user of Sublime Merge, which is the best git client I have tried.
I feel your tone-policing is misplaced here. When someone is that ignorant or foolish they should be told so so they can hopefully recalibrate or something. There's enough inchoate nonsense on the Internet that I appreciate the efforts to keep discussion on a little higher level here.
Are you sure about being unable to install RR as a plugin for Ultimate? (Also, I think the Go plugin for Ultimate is everything in GoLand):

It’s worthwhile remembering that in the AAA/AA space that Unity was “a meme” for far longer than it should have been. I remember first seeing it mentoring student teams in Dare to be Digital whilst working on an AAA title and thinking WTF is that!?

I’d also note that the ‘commercial games industry’ is much broader than AAA/AA, includes indie game developers and ships games making looooots of money on all sorts of weird tech stacks.
How does /e/ compare with lineageOS in practice? I'm guessing you're not using mini/gapps either, so I am a little curious. Been using lineageOS since the cyanogen days, and I failed to get /e/ compiled for a bunch of devices due to lack of time necessary to fix the builds or setup all the kernel dependencies etc. They also seem to not have support for anything pre-generic system images so there's that, too.

Any hints regarding apps, builds etc?

From the model overview I always had the feeling that /e/ only focusses on Pixel devices like all the other small ROMs and that GSM / EU device drivers are pretty much broken or unsupported.
What people want is a forum that doesn't require another blasted login and yet another inscrutable navigation system.

> There is no constitution in this country.

There is and was promulgated in 1988.[0]

> The supreme court has been grabbing power for years now and last year during the elections they committed blatantly unconstitutional acts in defense of their candidate including censorship the likes of which haven't been seen in this country since the military dictatorship.

The TSE, the court you are referring to alongside with social medias, removed around three hundreds posts containing fake news, that so small that yet 79% Brazilians had contact with fake news[1], how is that a dictatorship?

You are downplaying the dictatorship that happened in 1964 on Brazil. People were exiled/killed, ALL media were censored. I beg anyone who wants to know more about the coup of 64 read the wikipedia page is a good start on the subject, you will see how horrible and bloody it was.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I find the process of developing/modifying an extension such a PITA on vscode. In sublime it's frictionless, all you have to do is to save some python files in your user folder, then sublime will find them automatically, and hot reload them when you modify them! In VSCode, I have go through a whole build process, generate some .vsx and then manually install it. The tiniest modification to the code requires me to go through this whole process again. Am I doing something wrong here?

I has always been super easy to write in water if you use dry water. /s

Dry water or empty water, a form of "powdered liquid", is an air–water emulsion in which water droplets are surrounded by a silica coating. Dry water consists of 95% liquid water, but the silica coating prevents the water droplets from combining and turning back into a bulk liquid. The result is a white powder.

I try not to argue against my users for "what is best for them." If they overwhelmingly want Discord, I'll give them Discord. The goal is to be ready to jump ship if need be, and there's a few ways to do that.

> Miley recalls an example: After building one diverse engineering team, he interviewed inside Google for the opportunity to run another. At the time, Miley was overseeing a group of 200 engineers, product managers, tech writers and program managers and responsible for all of Google Cloud's documentation and website infrastructure and he had developed a reputation for his work in inclusion and equity.

> In the interview, Miley was asked by a senior engineering director if he would refuse to hire a white male computer science student from Stanford if the team were not diverse enough. The question made Miley so uncomfortable that he removed himself from the interview process and reported the conversation to senior leadership.

This stands from the rest of the article. Without knowing more about the conversation and context, it doesn't seem like something that should be reported just based on that question?
Sanctions will drive Brazil even deeper into the arms of China.

Are you willing to die for this jungle?
Yeah ofc. My view on programming languages is that both Rust and golang try to use VM methodologies wherever possible when it comes to memory safety and ownership. They just try to do as much as possible ahead of compile time rather than execution time.

Could be a bias too. I really dislike Discord. I'm on too many discords. It's just one of those network effect things that I wish wasn't everywhere.

I'm happy with searchable public chat support. Unfortunately, discord seems to be the best way to do this.

I think I do want a forum, but I probably wouldn't use it because signing in is too much effort. Maybe if forums had shared profiles and better mobile support, they'd be used more.

What do people expect? We aren't gonna get an iPhone 1 \ iPhone 4 \ iPhone X leap every year. There just isn't that much you can do, no matter how good your designers or engineers are. We've reached a natural plateau.

I'm not saying there's no room for improvement, certainly we're seeing some great leaps on the software and chipset side with AI and stuff, but the hardware has to stabilize a bit eventually. Arguably that's a good thing. Nobody is forcing you to upgrade and not having to saves you a thousand bucks a year.

I'm against changing stuff for the sake of changing it. That's how you end up with 'one step forward, two steps back' kind of changes. I'd rather them make sensible, steady improvements than make stuff different just for the sake of looking fresh.

This is a real problem. My project dealt with someone who dominated discussions and frequently responded with outright false information. We tried very hard to work with them, but they wouldn't change, and after asking a lot of other maintainers how they would handle it, and giving many warnings, we eventually banned them despite them not really breaking rules per se.

What ultimately convinced us banning was appropriate was people reminding us that it was within our rights and duties as community maintainers to create a welcoming environment for everyone, and seeing regular members stop participating because of them.
That's pretty much how it's always been. If you want a Jetbrains IDE, IDEA Ultimate is the best choice, because it offers all of the exact same features. The only issue is that, let's say, if you're developing in Python, it will still give you a Javascript-centered UI, and it's really frustrating

Oh ok interesting.

I suppose for a particularly complicated and big Python project (which, judging from your other comment, sounds like what you have), having something with the right PATH, etc, there are probably issues that arise in this regard that the rest of us don't have to worry about.

Employees lose motivation because the work is boring or they aren’t getting paid enough. It’s not because they don’t have a clear career path. A lot of companies have hierarchies and there’s always the next level to reach, but it doesn’t mean I’m motivated as a result. I’m motivated because the work is meaningful, or because I want to make more money. Not because I am going to eventually be a VP then director if I continue grinding

Last time a gripe about discord being bad for documention was posted, someone linked Answer Overflow (https://www.answeroverflow.com/) as a possible solution. Still requires people to use discords threaded feature and doesn't capture chats, but helps with atleast having the questiond indexed in google and not sitting behind a walled garden
I tried launching a forum, I spent a _lot_ of time setting up Discourse and proper CDN/uploads etc. I didn't go all out, only a few categories based on what was commonly needed (like 5?). I did this _before_ I resorted to Discord as the only point of help. People begrudgingly used it... It got to the point where I was asked "why aren't you using Discord like everyone else in this space?" enough that I asked my power users on the forum, and the broader internet via other channels, and most people overwhelmingly wanted Discord. In particular, of note, my power users on the forums wanted it. After switching, the number of people asking for help significantly increased, and we gained a fair number of new power users willing to help those people out too.

I paid JetBrains 3 years up-front for a license to their products. Thank heavens I paid for the full suite and not just CLion or I’d be stuck using CLion with the Rust plug-in which will become unmaintained.

Looking forward to install RustRover. Hopefully it will bring even better integration with Rust than using CLion with Rust plug-in. And CLion with Rust plug-in is already very nice :)
