What should happen is the company also contributes libraries back to the community, although Nintendo doesn't seem to https://github.com/Nintendo . The reason that the internet is as big as it is and as accessible to sm

They have raised prices for the 5000 series of Ryzen - although they still have a price per performance advantage over intel they're pricing themselves as the market leader.

Yeah, there's that well known demonstration that shows that it doesn't really matter the order of letters within a word as long as the first and last letters remain the same.

We banned single use bags in NZ more than a year ago, there was a bit of a learning curve while people got used to bringing their own bags but in general it's been succesfull. People now mostly remember to bring bags to the supermarket

I've worked with some very good programmers who happen to be devout Christians. I got over my prejudices quickly - it doesn't make sense to me but I don't have to understand it, just accept it.

Yeah, that's how New Zealand got rid of Covid completely, trust in the government and science. But, the government didn't abuse that trust by being very transparent about the response, science, and data modelling.

Suicide dropped substantially during lockdown, a lot of people realised that there's more to life than the daily grind. I can say from my experience that the economy runs a lot smoother and recovers a lot quicker if people aren't

Excess mortality doesn't paint the complete picture anyway, although Sweden didn't go into lockdown they did require people to work from home if able which would have reduced mortality rates from workplace incidents, traffic, etc.

That's a unique US thing. In countries like New Zealand people in the service industry get the same minimum wage as anyone else ($18.90 per hour) and don't rely on tips, they're normal employees and go through the same normal

I read it the same way and thought they were going to be in trouble from Adobe.

It's sad but the internet has a lot to answer for, the ability for us to access unfiltered and blatantly false information and for it to appear no different to peer reviewed and true information is leading humanity to disaster. Ideally

How do you police a promise before it's fulfilled? Completely different from lying.

Protect your team and make sure they're empowered to do their jobs and are unblocked. Depending on the organisation a lot of pressure may be placed on your shoulders and you need to make sure that doesn't impact on their productiv

It means something which looks 3d but is actually 2d under the hood. Doom looked 3d through a combination of techniques but the maps were 2d, Ultima and simcity look 3d because of the isometric perspective but are still just 2d tiles.

I prefer the original Quake to Doom as the best arcade style FPS. Doom is too limiting to me in it's movement and level design. Quake still has the abstract level design and that makes it the only 3d FPS that I've ever played to m

Having conversations with yourself and re-playing conversations is different from narrating things like a voice over though. I do the former, and I believe that's quite normal, but not the later.

JIRA is great but only in an enterprise where there's a team to manage it, I've moved on from it and I miss the flexibility that it offers - but that flexibility comes with extreme complexity. Most small to medium sized businesses

I don't have the same issues with Windows 10 but I only really use it for work and some gaming so I'm hardly an authority on it. Any issues you have might be due to the fact that they got rid of the Windows team awhile back.

Microsoft used to do stack ranking which puts everyone on a curve and ranks them against each other but they got rid of it when the regime at the top changed. This sort of ruthless management is a way to destabilise the workforce and disrup

There's differing opinions of BTRFS's suitability in production - it's the default filesystem of SUSE on one hand, on the other RedHat has deprecated BTRFS support because they see it as not being production ready and they do

I was going through boxes of old CDs and DVDs the other day and throwing out a lot of crap, I found my old BeOS5 disk. Didn't throw out that one. I really enjoyed using that OS back in 2000.

You'd hope so, but I know from traveling for a large multinational that it was up to the individual to pay for their own offsetting and I think most are the same. I tend to just try and video conference with people to alleviate the exh

I think it's a hard sell, you can contact those competitors and see if there is an appetite to buy an existing product in order to get to market quickly but depending on how mature that product is I can't see there being much of a
