   They would equally oppose a luxury hotel or a housing development.

   More like nightmares. I've read articles about Syria being the first casualty in the coming migrant wars due to climate change.

   This is a good strategy past the first year.

   I think a collapse of civilization will be hard on women yes. I'm not misogynistic and am an advocate of equal rights for all sexes but there are hard realizations about the sort of behavior we would exhibit in the wrong sort of circum

   I've thought a bit about this and come to the conclusion that the best way to survive is not to have anything others would want. If you have nothing others want you will not be attacked for it and have to defend yourself. That will get

   Methane is increasing now precipitously compared to the last couple of decades. We hit an inflection point apparently in the last couple of years.

   I thought it was perfectly well understood. Hundreds to thousands of megatons of methane is trapped in permafrost. When the warmest point of the year melts the now ill-named permafrost, methane gets released.

   As a user of Google Translate I can tell you that the resulting text is somewhat hilarious.

    Neccesary but not sufficient. Divestment in dinofuel should be closely followed by investment in clean energy tech, sequestration or other carbon-saving or net-negative industry.

    Looks like Factorio-level FTL. I like it!

    Statutory rape is not "having sex". Even if you make the girl a year older I am not sure the situation changes very much. The power dynamic is not allowing her a lot of free choices.

    I've always felt that the lesson in the Halting Problem was that you should write programs that a theoretical P would be able to take in as data and calculate an answer. It's easy to make computers blow up but hard to make them u

    I can't edit anymore but I was wrong. According to Wikipedia [1] Bitcoin is regulated both as a security and a currency, taxed as if it were property. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_countr

    Bitcoin isn't (can't be?) regulated.

    No, I seriously wanted someone to explain. It was not a comment. Someone did. It didn't change my mind.

    I'd willingly dock myself points if I just got feedback to the why. This isn't Instagram or Twitter. This site is supposed to be about exploring viewpoints different from yours coming from wicked smart people.

    I get that this comment is downvoted. I honestly didn't understand the other one. I don't care about the points. I don't even know how they are used except for killing comments. I've also read discussions on voting on

    Thank you for making the point. I find it utterly silly that something that is taken from granted as Best Principles (tm) in other fields is considered harmful in game programming. I've programmed a few small games, never with features

    If you need it version controlled there are two options. Use somthing that does versioning in the database (like django-reversion f.ex.) or separate the story into it's own repo and use it as a sub-module. There are other ways, these a

    Story sounds like data to me. Data should not be in the repo, just the means to fetch it.

    SSDs are not the only storage device that lies about these things. Just about the only one that doesn't is tape, and I'm not even sure about those.

    This is such a yawn inducing product. I'm not too sure this will interest the gaming segment much. Server farms will all be looking at the 4X return for purchasing EPYC over Intel and the power savings are icing on the cake.

    It's just not the same game. This game features talent trees that the current version just does not have anymore. It is actually a feature that pushes you in a more social direction within the game that dungeons and raids are hard and
