So the problem is that they don't use scientific method.

Well, one factor is the sample size is very small.

I think one of the main reasons why he did what he did is his motivation, or lack of it while working with C++. Whatever rational arguments would point out to C++ will be essentially meaningless if he is not happy writing with it. That&#x27

Sounds like a rant from a person that have just experienced the joys of C++. The trick is, you get used to it.

So, roughly speaking, you can expect for a difference in the order of tens of seconds. But my question was, how relevant is this? At least in my experience, and I have worked with projects that took up to 50 minutes to fully recompile (befo

I see one of the core reasons C is chosen over C++ is the speed of compilation. My question would be, to what extent is compilation speed relevant? What time differences are we talking about? I agree that every second counts, and I understa

That's exactly, if my understanding of changes happening to brain while performing any activity in general is correct, what should happen - you get better at doing that activity. So, unless your work contains some kind of dual-n-back a

The difference is that compulsive gamers have little control over their play time. If you play games for long periods of time, it does not mean you are compulsive, if you do it by choice, because let's say, you have nothing better to d

A good reminder about calculating statistics and making accurate predictions. When analyzing why a group of objects (usually very small, like successful companies) have a certain trait, it is not enough to find something all these objects h

Some intelligent people know when it's worth to take risks and don't bother themselves about consequences that will probably never happen.

Well I meant the "weak" version, which states language only influences thoughts and stuff. Which I would still say is a personality change. Thank you for links, though.

I think it's pretty well established that different languages create different personalities within individual, and that includes emotions. Ever noticed how it's easy to express certain things in one language, but difficult in ano

These kind of articles can be classified as "starting point of spreading change in a chaotic system sensitive to small changes". It doesn't inspire anything. If it does, it might even make people think they were doing somethi

If someone makes it into compeling game, yes. But it is very hard to do it, and in this case it happened by accident.

Really, how can people value art when it is indistinguishable from everyday life?

But the game doesn't explain anything. It doesn't even tell what commands can be used. I played like 10 games until I found out you can actually put on items, and that was by accidentally stumping upon the command on the internet.

It seems to be one of the "negative results are bad" category opinions, manifested through a grumpy blog post. I don't share that opinion. I think negative result is sometimes as valuable as positive, in that it allows us to

This is a losing game for us. If we don't make ANY backlash, then the terrorists will be encouraged to repeat attacks, as they see there are no consequences for their actions. Additionally, French will be more afraid of Muslims and wil

Don't marry, don't have kids and cut all contact with your old parents, so they don't hold you back if they get sick either. Money and career, after all, is the meaning of life.

But were players even aware that there were essential weapons and abilities to be collected? If no, then it would be another design mistake. Hiding essential information from player. With endless stream of games it's not a time to rely

The most obvious design mistake is to make essential weapons and items (double jump) hard to find and easy to miss. This punishes a player for playing "as intended", i.e. finishing level. Items that are hard to find and has possib
