My interpretation of how the term is used is that the requirement is to have the ability to experience radically different gameplay based on how you play and your choices. For example Undertale goes 100% on "the story evolves around yo

In many cases RPG is used to mean "character classes, skill trees, and/or skill progression" as opposed to "your character is mostly always the same but with different weapons" (e.g. in terraria you can get very dif

In part it is because git is hard to use, in part it is because mostly people learn git by oral tradition and often treat it like sorcery.

My controversial opinion is that git needs some kind of gui that help you keep track of the state of the repo

I agree that git is almost asking you to juggle commits. My preference is to use temporary branches and cherry-picking instead of stashing; I mostly use a gui* to work with git so it is easy to select the two or three commits to cherry-pick

I believe that detached HEAD means that there is not a current branch, that is no branch will be updated the next time you commit. You can get to detached HEAD even if the commit is pointed to by a branch

I agree with the general sentiment but every non-quantum "thing you have" can be duplicated. PS: I suspect that you could make a 2FA protocol capable of detecting duplication of the thing you have by having the app generate signed

Protocol-wise the difference is that a TYH* requires an interaction by the user. An app generating OTP codes is a TYH while the secret used to generate the token is a TYK. A password manager is a TYH while the passwords inside are TYK In ge

Cloudflare workers support wasm via JavaScript. At least I believe that if you write a worker in rust what happens is that CF wraps your wasm in the correct js to provide environment bindings. In practice it make little to no difference, bu

It is not an overwhelming factor but if for example you were to go from 20mph to 10mph you would see an effect. Overrall lower speed limits (when streets are designed to take advantage of them) have a lot of benefits, this is in the categor

by afiori 3y ago
This is asymptotically true for high speeds but false for low speeds where 2-seconds-car is comparable to the average length of a vehicle. If the speed limit was (magically) 0.001 mph then raising it to 0.002 mph would double throughput.

But you need the entire marketplace to follow that rule. You cannot charge "what it's worth" on amazon because you either pay the ad tax or you compete for the lowest price.

The most likely option is that the booking system allows you to book a desk for less than a full day, so late bookers might be forced into fragmented bookings.
