Sometimes the material is absolutely unhelpful when doing a badly designed test, and you may even fail them. I had a Calculus teacher that taught 100% from the books but his tests were always 5 special case questions, that you might very we

That works for most of us, but not for all. It's basically the same as public speech, some people simply will do badly unless they go through some radical change.

That's not what I meant. I didn't say "tests are hard". I said "It's hard to measure knowledge using tests", from the perspective of whoever needs to elaborate those. In the end, tests end up approving a l

You can use the IDE without problems. It's like Gimp, for an example. It is GPL, but you are not incorporating the software itself. Even though I would argue QtCreator is only bearable when working with Qt.

Never used C++? Most cases where Cpp is a good fit will require some memory usage and allocation profiling sooner or later.

Not really, especially when there are dozens of alternatives to vivox. But it is definitely the only thing they could suggest without saying "yeah, you should use Mumble, is objectively better".

The thing is, it was clearly in the interest of the developer. Vivox tried to use the "drop it, it's so insignificant" card, but, even compared to the number of Linux gamers, the insignificant market would actually be the &qu

After suggesting a developer drop Linux support, Vivox have released a statement(gamingonlinux.com)

That's a good analogy. It's really hard to "measure knowledge," and in my humble opinion, as someone who once was a teacher, tests are one of the hardest ways of doing so.

Saying that C++ won't "save" us is already pretty emotional and, put simply, wrong. We are not really facing imminent doom or anything that would justify that word, other than an overemotional point of view, biased by persona

Can't access the link anymore, "Sorry, that page doesn’t exist!" Can anyone still access? Can anyone throw this in the WayBack Machine?

The part about prices is true to any cloud provider. Amazon increased our prices by 170% over the years, same usage. I was not surprised when I saw big shots falling back to self hosting (like Dropbox from Amazon to own hardware).

it reminds me of all the discontinued crap I tried and never comited to. Google and Microsoft are basically a minefield on that front.

I have never seen anyone saying that $5 a day of anything is ruining someone's retirement plans. But yes, spending $5 on a latte, $5 on a croissant, another $5 on candies and a tenner on Uber, ..., and the daily wasted money will event

Except that the $5 fancy latte also works up to at least 5 minutes to get. Not that I think it has anything to do with the point of the article.

I would definitely buy one. And also buy the companion DIY kit.

Looks cool, if not overkill for the vast majority of games. I hope I remember this if I ever get to make a moba or a hardcore strategy game.

I mostly agree with you, especially about those "weak affirmatives" being plainly bad, and I personally disregard anything in that "plausible deniability" category as what it is. Still, I don't think calling the pos

No. Ad hominem only exists when there is a disagreement. So, one side of the argumentation uses the fallacy to counter the other side's argument. This IS NOT the case. This is akin to simple research. Imagine you want to build a comput

"Ad hominem (Latin for "to the person"[1]), short for argumentum ad hominem, is a fallacious argumentative strategy whereby genuine discussion of the topic at hand is avoided by instead attacking the character, motive, or oth
