In my experience, a larger engineering team makes these kinds of problems more likely I wonder how many teams worked on tweet embeds, each with their own incomplete understanding of the full widget and their own competing product prioriti

I've gotten fairly good at using regexes for this kind of thing, but of course those don't work for every case. I don't know of other options for operations that aren't built-in to the language extension But I will say i

That's really impressive, considering Cyberpunk had so many issues even on officially-supported platforms

It's very clearly a choice and not a bug But what I could imagine is that it fell out of product oversight and an engineer just came along and said "well that's a really complicated piece of code, I don't want to maint

OT, but for consoles you just leave it in sleep-mode and it'll update things quietly throughout the day. It's more of a problem for desktops

In my experience that covers 2-4 visits outside of insurance. That's enough to help you process eg. the stress of suddenly losing your job

Wasn't poetry supposed to be the one that fixed all that? I haven't tried it, but I've suffered the state of other python tooling and whenever I rant about it to others they're always like "but we have poetry now, a

And VSCode is still pretty customizable/extensible- in most of the ways that people really cared about. It found a really solid balance

And in fact- I think something that would be really helpful is if these models shipped with another model that detected how similar an output image is to a specific image in the training set You could get this score alongside the results if

Monaco is just the GUI, it doesn't require language support (and in fact, the LSP that was pioneered alongside it means you don't even have to run the language support on the same machine, much less in the same codebase) Again- an

I wasn't aware of that as a core goal. Do you have a reference where it's stated? I also don't see why WASM wouldn't be a good fit for that

It doesn't try to protect you from the really deranged things. Every TS check comes with an implied "assuming you didn't use a Proxy to make this property accessor mutate state or something" It does reach admirably far

I've poked around in the TypeScript codebase just a little bit, and it's clear they've squeezed as much performance out of JS as they can (though really, you can tell that just by using the thing; it's impressively fast

> "well, if you carve out this subset of TypeScript, you have something you can safely eval()" or "you can never have type errors with this usage of this construct in this way." This kind of certainty is very at odds

TypeScript is complicated because JavaScript is complicated. As long it's sticking to the core goal of giving JavaScript static types in a practical way, complexity is unavoidable. I think what you want is a new language. (I say this n

Marketing definitely has an impact, even just social media stuff, but unless you've got a AAA-sized marketing budget there will still be a significant amount of chance involved

The flipside is that it's a lottery. Steam is overflowing with new indie games every day, and many very good ones die in obscurity. You really have to get lucky and go viral But yeah, the entry fee for that lottery is at a historic low

A problem is that some of their requirements, like the recent one for data collection disclosures, can't be enforced at a technical level

Beside the main point (because I don't work at Google), but can we do anything else to help? I've seen you on here quite a bit, and if you had a PayPal or something I'd happily chip in

Not the kind of anxiety I was expecting when I clicked tbh Just try to remember that nobody could possibly keep up with everything, and that you don't need to anyway. Follow what stokes your interest and/or pays the bills, and don

I've held on to windows just for gaming, but Valve has been making huge strides turning linux into a viable option for that. Whenever support stops for Windows 10, I may have to give it a try

One of the many reasons I don't use Windows for anything but gaming (and even then, I'm keeping my gaming machine on 10 as long as I can)

Yeah, but this is less of a problem if it's an internal API. You can stick to a stricter subset of the standard, and/or only handle the types of column values that you actually need Still probably worth using a library, but it isn
