I think the FIFA brand name has enough weight among its target audience that they know what genre it is. The rest, well, it’s a sign that whoever’s running the marketing doesn’t understand the gaming audience and whoever’s in charge is eith

Yeah, I would have assumed that the volumes purchased by kids outweighed collectors by a ton and so the peak would be in the late 90s to coincide with Toy Story 1 and 2

I think Hangul worked because it was adopted at a time of mass increases in literacy. All those poor people who never wrote before didn't have any attachment to Chinese characters, and soon significantly outnumbered any monks, nobles,

What's interesting is that they address this problem where the latin alphabet introduces the ambiguity (Is genin げんいん or げにん? Hepburn goes with gen'in for the former to avoid ambiguity), so they could have extended that to sake&#x

It's a change in purpose. Nihon-shiki was invented to teach Japanese people the Latin alphabet, with a view to replacing kana/kanji with the Latin alphabet. Therefore being understandable to someone with a good idea of the kana la

The .NET framework to .Net Core migration broke a bunch. Similarly java 6 to 8, and when they introduced the new module system in Java 11 broke a bunch in another case. You’d still need to fixed that they swapped the string types, renamed a

Something like GPT 5-mini is a lot cheaper than even Haiku but when I tried it in my experience it was so bad it was a waste of time. But it’s probably still more than 1/10 the performance of Haiku probably? In work, where my employer

by Macha 10mo ago
This is kind of unfortunate in this case as it breaks some tooling since the extra trees are not collocated with git, like editor inline history/blame or agents that know to look in git history to fix their mistakes

For example, I read it on a 10 inch tablet, so the line length for the article was about seven words which required a lot of extra scrolling, and it’s scrolling within a box so I needed to scroll in a specific area of the page, rather than

Standard Latin characters are half width. Ｆｕｌｌｗｉｄｔｈ latin characters do exist, but that’s not the difference we’re seeing here, if anything that would make the Latin font in the English release “quarter width” except that’s not a real thin

I think this was a year or two before I got to rust - some of these things still existed then (bare traits, no NLL, the ecosystem was only halfway onto cargo), while others (the old pointer type syntax) had already gone.
