This is absurd. Employee/employer relationship is nowhere near the same as citizen/government relationship.

>Game developers get torrents of abuse I don't believe this is an excuse to treat things as abusive even when they aren't. The person was polite.

You're failing to understand the relentless toxic entitlement shown by many female game devs. See how I can turn that around and it's just as "true" as your statement, yet doesn't do anything whatsoever for the conv

Well, if you posted about your company's work on a public forum, and the disagreement was with regard to that, I believe it's fair if the company feels your behavior, good or bad, reflects on them. Employment is more of a relation

Maybe it isn't the first time her short fuse got her into trouble at the company. Triggering a social media backlash might've been the last straw.

There was a game awhile back called "A Good Snowman is Hard to Build". The creator used PuzzleScript as a level editor/prototyper. He would make and play the levels inside the PuzzleScript engine, then import the completed le

>...perhaps it works well within the realm of puzzle-specific scripting, but... Yes, it is literally named "PuzzleScript". Also, if you continued reading, you'd find it is succinctly explained.

MealSquares. Zero prep, solid, not filled with soy, has everything except omega-3s. If you don't care about "meal time as an experience", it's the most time-efficient thing I've found.

If it's possible for us to coexist with our own super-intelligent AI, it might make sense for them to act as intermediaries when communicating with other intelligent beings out there. It might mitigate some of the risk to ourselves by

I'd be happy if it could just find all function defs in a translation unit without forward declaring.

Backtracks on the title's claim in the opening sentence. Then states some basic well-known points that even advocates of OOP would agree with, even in 2013. Then neglects to suggest solutions except alluding to functional programming a

You're saying that he chose to have no choice. This implies there was a point at which he had a choice, then chose to have no choice. Can you see how nonsensical this is?

Not a fan of this term "the root cause". It appears to be causing some semantic trouble for the author as well. If you never get it in your head that you're going to find the "root cause" of something (initial condi

This literally means that God is not "all powerful". And if there are things he is simply incapable of experiencing, this also means he is not "all knowing".

"The theory of evolution as an explanation of the origin of the major taxa of life really paints us into a corner from which it is difficult to wiggle out." Sure, it's easy to avoid corners when you can place them arbitrarily

Perhaps you've been making decisions based on factors other than what YOU want. Now you have a life full of things you don't want. I would say take a step back and get to know yourself again.

Of course, bitcoin's own limitations would've prevented it's widespread use, with or without the over-speculation (lack of throughput and excessive energy consumption).

The first two features are nice, but the cynical side of me thinks this is all about the third feature. They will simultaneously appear concerned and helpful, easing the growing negative sentiment against them while introducing even more pe

Well, it seems this idea has touched a few nerves. In this case, it may indicate you're on the right track. Keep it up!

I don't believe it's entirely a trick of the mind. There is a difference between animals which have been selectively bred to perform social roles and ones bred for food. They actually do display more social traits because they&#x2

My apologies. At the time, I was expressing my distaste for what I view as an over-zealously regarded sentiment here, but I did mistake you for the above user :)

I don't believe you need to read any of their clever commentary to use the service. You can ascertain the purpose of each screen by looking at the available options and click through ignoring all suggestions to pay them more.

I am pretty much like this. I still enjoy socializing with people, but I'm happy as hell when I have loads of free time to work on what I want, when I want, for as long as I want. I could live a thousand years without a schedule and ne

I believe this ignores the component of social cohesion. In rapidly changing and uncertain times, the lure of steadfast resolve and order can be psychologically powerful to many types of people. Fascist ideologies of all types promise this.

Personally, I feel it's vastly easier these days. The sheer volume of learning material at your fingertips is staggering. I mean, you can just turn on youtube tutorials and soak it in with barely any effort. Most of the time, you can c

I'm saying it reveals truth about ourselves because it gives us more of what we want. The growth of certain communities is an exposure of something that was already there.

If the algorithms are designed to maximize engagement, then the opposite is true from a certain point of view. The result is an _undistorted_ reflection of our nature.
