Any word on when Unity will get this. The New Linq and parallel async apis looks super cool

What could this mean for speed ? That's Python's greatest weakness imo.

Define hardcore If I’ve been playing Smash Bros since the 90s and I need to play the latest one , I’m buying a Switch. I consider myself hardcore, I probably play( or make ) games at least 30 hours a week Of course I have a PC as well. I’m

I consider myself a hardcore gamer, but I'm still buying an OLED Switch later this year. If anything 'hardcore' gamers are more likely to buy a switch since they'll be deeply invested in certain franchises, vs a causal g

Everyone should put a lock on their credit. Also since it takes a few days to remove the lock, you can't impulse buy a car ( or another big ticket item). At this point the only thing I'll ever need to do a credit check for is a ne

Hard disagree. The absurd vast majority of people will never make any money via Roblox, or any of the major app stores for that matter. I have a few apps on both Google Play and the App Store. I'm never going to see a dime. If anythin

You can also just not connect it to the internet.

I'm so sad I'll never get to experience this. I don't think with covid, arcades will ever be economically viable again. Even with a vaccine it's a high risk low reward activity to have so many people gathered around in s

Is your pay competitive with Facebook. I know if I ever get an opportunity to work at a FAANG I'm selling my soul until my stock options vest and then I'll try to retire abroad.

This seems like a great idea. I assume a forward looking city could hook directly into your apis to process things faster. By fair housing will become the biggest issue in the next 50 years or so. Would love to see case studies where your s

Does any widely used application do it better. I always view CSV as a lowest common denominator, of course more precise formats exist, but not everyone can use those. Csvs normally get the job done, but like anything else you need to know i

Am I insane here, or does Excel generally do a very good job of handling almost all CSV files. I don't really see a need for a metadata file, nor would I ever see Excel or other tools accepting it. The main problem is adoption, CSV isn

Why not use Yaml. Yaml is my go to format when I need something human readable and somewhat editable ( very easy to ruin Yaml spacing).. What's the real motivation behind an article like this. I don't imagine anyone has serious tr

Even 10 or 11 years ago you could find a studio apartment in LA for 600 to 700$. It wasn't perfect( mine didn't have a kitchen, I learned how to cook pasta via a rice cooker), but considering it gave me a much needed escape from

People who actually make sure to vote, homeowners have no incentive to vote for housing bills. Even assuming there's no increase in traffic, or any other negative side effects, you still lose tons of money as your home would appreciate

15$ a month is a ton of money. I'd prefer 50$ one time if possible. The other issue is I simply don't know y'all. You could be keylogging everything for all I know. Even now I tend to use Chrome for secure browsing and Brave

They still gamble intelligently. Would you give some random programer 10 million ? Every one of us could probably create a website, but only a select few could create a business ready to receive funding.

by 41209 5y ago
That's not a fair comparison. If I'm able to raise funding, it means that some very smart people think they'll be able to get their money back. Compare this to just me creating a website vowing to re invent bowing. No one&#x2

I have work authorization for another country. I'll probably consult with a lawyer before doing this though.

Has anyone seen if there's a clear path to working from an overseas location. I have an LLC if that works, I figure I could do a Corp to Corp as long as LLC exists within the US.

If Reddit didn't nag mobile web users no one would download the app. Such a bad ux isn't an accident

This is a pretty moot point. Realistically no one can develop for a console without having a significant amount of funding. Microsoft had an indie storefront a while ago , but it's essentially gone. I wasted hours , and 25$ trying to g

Before Covid made it impossible, I wanted to do this for at least 6 months. I still hope I get the chance to travel for an extended period of time .

Any reason why you require a full week long trial week. Unless you're offering 200k+ most people won't do this ( unless your targeting entry level )
