Someone on the internet hasn’t heard it so that must be wrong then!

Save your saltiness for 9gag, friend. I saw that you specifically wrote that but you also continued using exodus in the first sense, as the one you replied to did. But you just wanted to be snarky to that person I guess.

Mass firing is not an exodus. Exodus is when people are fleeing, and generally in terms of liberation. Firing people is just firing people

WASM is great and as it becomes more accessible it will likely take over more and more

OPs meme is just a sign of someone not understanding the softer parts around development. The meme also seems to forget that we tried java in the browser for two decades and it was just… Horrible from all perspectives, in all layers

Not op but yes, I actually do. Dev for about 20 years, and the vast majority showing vim/emacs struggle when presenting. Could be presentation jitters ofc but the answer to:

You think thousands of developers are handicapping themselves for bragging rights?

Yes, yes I do. Thousands is not all, but they are definitively in the thousands

“I like horses”. Proceeds and takes one of my horse with one of their horses. I take their horse with my pawn. “Don’t fuck with my horsies” I get as a response.

Two-three turns later (this was 20 years ago, forgive me) I can check them by grabbing the same horse with a bishop.

“Why dont you like my horsies”? I get as a response

I proceeded to check mate two turns after that. It was a competition, I proceeded to the semifinals after this. I lost that semifinal due to a skillful check mate including a horse to lock it down. And the person from the previous game leaned over at the end turn saying " that is my backup horse"

I laughed my ass off and I’m not sure I could get of the check situation but fuck I lost my focus

You are talking about synonyms here, and its highly subjective. The above poster has some good points with the more clear verbs but this whole end of the flow would work just as well as well with a “yes, I’m sure” and “no” instead of cancel

I find the amount of engineers who have built an “alternative to google on their spare time” truly fascinating. Because if you think that is possible, IMO, you have no idea what Google actually built.

Its just not a search engine, and also, as a search engine, it stopped being a good model to follow a decade ago.

Build on the ideas and build something new instead

I personally think it’s a bit of a fallacy to equal structure with less creativity.

Look at Calatrava https://duckduckgo.com/?q=calatrava&t=fpas&iax=images&ia=images

Further, you can’t design something like the Burj Khalifa without creativity

Maybe the line goes where you are risking peoples life or not, maybe somewhere else. It still makes me sad that you equal programming with chaos. But that is very context driven. The drive for new software, new interfaces, new tech overall naturally breeds less oversight and less structure naturally ofc. But it doesn’t have to be that way, nor should it be if you ask me

Your notion of an engineer is correct in a wide sense

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineer

The fact that you feel programming is not that makes me sad. But likely dependent on what software and what you work with. For example, if you build software for NASA or Baxter and dialysis machines and the likes, you’ll get fired fast for not being structured. Working for Elon Musk and Twitter… Well…

Oh sorry it seemed offensive or negative in any way, I just wanted to clarify that “seems like” i s a vast understatement. Dune 2 predates all of them, and became a template for mechanics and layouts. We’ve gone a long way since, but dune was the first of the models that we build RTS games as today

“in this essay” The article you’ve written is not an essay. It is at its top, an opinion article

And as Vodulas points out, they generally serve as a game mechanic. Either you are recreating set guns from history or it’s lower level gun meant to be a bit crappier.

What even is this articles point? Iron sights are crappy? Yeah, we know, that’s why that was improved upon and they barely exist on IRL guns today

Indeed I did, sorry about that

This looks like javascript so let me guess the typescript definition

any|unknown

this is a joke, please chill

Here is one of the programmers who is quantum ready as well

Alright, thanks. Sounds like the existing fields could have been leveraged for that tbh, seems given that the newer field would be overused/misused

Oh, missed the plural, sorry about that. But is that one the same as “Album artists” or yet another one then?

I agree with most of your points but the artist tag in ID3 tags existed way before streaming music services was a thing. Hell it existed in versions.

So what’s that about?

Echoing bermuda@beehaw.org. “Degenerates”? You mean a games series that pushed the boundaries when it was new, truly pushed what open world meant, and that it could be done with large, crowded cities technically as well. Sure if you play them nowadays the might not brush any strokes and feel flat but the GTA series has been defining a game for generations where “everybody” in that generation had played and been fond of. 1-2-3, San Andreas, and vice city and the ilks. There wasnt really any competitors to that when they were released.

I’m going to guess you are right that it won’t be too innovative. Story wise they have never been innovative, nor pretended to be. They have pushed the boundaries of open world in both engineering and social commentary/satire.

But calling several generations of gamers who grew up with this “degenerates”. Hard to take you seriously and your attitude can eff right off

“Seems like”? Dune 2 is the template which most RTS is derived from. Truly a genre defining game
