so, what is to stop them from running code from the app?!? Who do you call when something breaks? Do you expect the dev to not be able to log in and investigate at 3am or whenever? I mean if you can't trust your dev team, or the proc

hype maybe? Got a backroom deal for the exposure? Oh, and you probably aren't netflix either. But they have a pretty severe case of vendor lock in now, will be interesting to see how it plays out. As of 2018 they spend 40 million o

Ugly is in the eye of the beholder :) I think a lot of people don't realize what is so immediately available with a cut and paste. Though search works pretty well too ;) inb4 "how do I make it work with webpack?"

Well they get upset if you tell them to learn how to code, could even get you banned from twitter. I prefer independants these days, folks on bitchute and youtube and etc. The "organized press" has been gunning for shutting down

Thanks! I mean I hate to sound judgmental, but "that fewer than one in five infants are breastfed for 12 months in high-income countries; " I've tried to encourage people to breastfeed, it isn't well received though. &qu

FWIW, I stopped reading the onion when it was bought by univision, for presumably political reasons. I mean even now the dedication and passion you describe sounds a bit like campaign headquarters to me, not a satire shop.

It appears to be incomplete analysis, often something like mobility is far more important than the other attributes, and it is only realized from in-game analysis. You need to JIT the data I recon, for each map/course. Plus some attr

I doubt it is that "critical", they likely have other cross-checks and enough production data to make that call. Granted time crunch, but they aren't the old school with the old baggage either. Pending disaster? Doubt it. W

The way I see it, the higher up maslow's pyramid, the more BS it is, roughly speaking. This in terms of the function of the job, aside from your own survival and having a job.
