In Oblivion and Skyrim IIRC, the characters were mostly individually configured by the level designers. That works fine for a world where you have what boils down to a few small towns but I don't think the same approach could be applie

Your explanation only makes sense if you base the value of the art on the experience of viewing it, or the intrinsic value. People like owning objects that have a history or story about them, like a ring worn by their great great grandmothe

In my opinion the fix is to stop using rotary wing designs, they're simply inefficient. Instead, use fixed-wing designs. There's a reason planes are so much more common than helicopters. Another alternative might be very small air

I think you missed the "technology or language or framework" part. Their argument is that if you have a monolith and want to say move from Ruby to TypeScript, you basically have to rewrite the whole thing and migrate in one go, wh

This looks really promising. I'm someone who's interested in making chocolate for the product, not the process. I know there are people who like the process of tempering (e.g. tabling), pouring it into fancy moulds and decorating

I think the viability of FCEVs is certainly up for discussion, my point is mostly that Elektrek accuses Toyota of dismissing BEVs, which are Electrek's preference while itself dismissing FCEVs, which are Toyota's preference. But o

Seems like hypocrisy considering Electrek routinely ignores FCEVs (hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles), which are Toyota's apparent future preference. Among other things, the image at the top of the article clearly shows "FCEV&q

I think you're misreading. PyPy isn't half as fast, it takes half the time. They point out that the geometric mean is 0.22, so PyPy is 4.5x faster.

My ramen experiences in Japan are very different to the ones abroad. In Japan, ramen is meant to be pretty quick, taking "fast food" to a whole other level: you go in, order and pay, sit down, eat, then leave. The eating environme

Why does that rule hydrogen fuel cells out? How are FCEVs any less "all-electric" than BEVs? Both kinds of vehicle are driven by chemical reactions that directly generate electricity.

Others have mentioned an electric RAV4 but in the more immediate past, is there a reason the Mirai shouldn't be considered "all-electric"? It's not a widely successful electric car but it is a production electric car.

Interesting pricing considering Backblaze is another Bandwidth Alliance member and they only charge $0.005/GBmonth (vs. $0.015/GBmonth). B2 + CloudFlare gives you a similar deal at a third the cost.

Sending the U-2 or SR-71 is like sending spies. Something most countries do and so expect and tolerate of others. The SR-72 has strike capability. It's more like sending an assassin or rolling a tank into a foreign country. That's
