Because I worked with Perl and got burned a bit so it came to mind. I understand game engines are different and people build against stable versions for years sometimes.

If you want text, and something very simple, then I would (and did) start here: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/getting_started/step_... It was a very simple process, there were one or two typos I fou

The more comments I read in this thread, the more this sounds like Perl 5 and Perl 6.

How is the court venue decided? Is it based on where the copyright holder is based? That just adds a whole other layer of murky, now I can decide whether or not to infringe based on where the project is headquartered :)

Doesn't it also depend to some degree on how much code sits between the user and AGPL code? IIRC AGPL was created to bypass a thin wrapper frontend type situation. I make a website that takes PDFs, it lets users extract pages. In the b

Yes if you're on two servers with someone and you right click their name it will show that it's the same person on the other server. It's not really private information if user IDs are public, I just prefer to keep things a b

I am also a little miffed that someone can right click my profile in one server and then see that I'm the same guy in another. Just a little annoyed, not much, but it'd be nice to turn it off. Unless I missed an option?

Or just use Outlook. I don't know what they did but it's like all the various panes are coded independently and don't talk to each other. Multiple times a day I'll see a number next to 'unread' which won't

Most frequently I do it for PHP. I help a friend with a Wordpress site, PHP is easy to read but I'm hardly fluent in the ins-and-outs, and a simple Wordpress hook added to functions.php can fix so many issues. I always leave a comment

One thing that is striking when visiting Singapore is the number of elderly people working basic jobs in fast food, street stalls, and similar roles. I don't know enough to judge their financial well-being, but it's very different

I worked in a mail house and really liked the editable nature of PS files that we got. We could run them through data processing and easily add/remove/adjust data. Sometimes the clients would ask us to do it in our monthly work be

Really depends on the file, the font format, and viewing program (if you aren't talking about printing). Printed PS can look fine, and is still used in some industries for essential mail. Viewing programs are usually the poorer cousin

To me it's just a matter of stakes. No one will die if you close your door without taking care. On a road that's a realistic threat so people should account for it in how they act. For me that moves it from accident to negligence

Thanks I will keep it in mind, and will also have to account for $15 or more of tolls :( Maybe if we're already out there for another reason.

It's more of a cultural thing, different cuts are done in different countries. If you ask for a boston butt it's the same - they don't stock that, and never trained for it. I showed a chart to a butcher and he said the top sh

That looks like way too much charcoal to me, which might explain why I always have heat issues in my kettle! But it gave what looks like a perfect result. Pity that finding a full brisket, let alone with the fat cap intact, is a hard feat i

I have little experience but on #5 I thought the consensus now was that 'juicy' is largely a matter of rendered fat, and water content doesn't really have that much to do with it.

Only in an IPO or other public issue really. What happens is your money goes to whoever owned the shares and they use it somehow. That same money could theoretically be used to buy shares infinitely, except for fees, and the company would s

IIRC dentistry is only covered in fringe cases for health related reasons i.e. you need this done or you will get very sick or die. Also under some concession schemes. Otherwise, regular check ups, cleaning, fillings, and basic extractions

I don't have time to read every paper published, which is why we have people we call experts. The hope is that by having published papers public, other experts will read it and kick up a stink if there are egregious errors. Up until th

Does it discuss the neocortex in animals? AFAIK they tend to have one but for most non-primates it is much more limited. Based on your example that would seem to explain why in dog training for example environmental context is far more impo

Yeah, it seems a bit one sided. If they censored equally for every existing language I wonder how many words we'd have left.

I ran a quick search and apparently it works for stuff like bees and mosquitoes too. Interesting. If I had a couple thousand spare which seems to be the going rate in AU it could be worth trying for my wife who gets giant mosquito bumps tha

The real problem seems to be experience transfer. People reinvent because they don't even know what already exists. They run into the same problems because they don't know they've already been solved. They come up with a flaw
