This is one scenario where IMGUI approaches have a small win, even if it's by accident - since GUI elements are constructed on demand in immediate mode, invisible/unused elements won't have tooltip setup run, and the tooltip

Some people really sincerely do believe in pacifism. That doesn't seem misaligned with 'the victim of an immoral war should win'. One can also believe multiple things at the same time, like: * Waging war is immoral * If someo

Wow, you're not kidding. In some shots David Bowie barely looks like David Bowie because the algorithm's taken such liberties with the original image to try and make it look sharp.

There were a few dust-ups of this sort that I saw on Twitter back before Gamergate started (and during Gamergate) where there were accusations that people were brigading visible black users on Twitter to push them off the site or get them b

Equity and revenue share are fundamentally different things. YC could be asking for 30% equity and it'd still be more reasonable than the 30% revenue cut modern gatekeepers demand.

The post doesn't seem to elaborate on how Riot detects and bans people using that sort of cheat, but you can detect some % of those people by analyzing their inputs. Humans don't play the way an aimbot does.
