Sure they're complex but tbh they don't need to be. Sorry to bruise your professional ego but you should understand that there's a lot of decisions in bigtech/corporate that equates to 'buy it don't build it, i

The dev team is usually under immense pressure to deliver. This probably slipped under the radar to let all the other features get through. The maintenance team probably maintains other games as well. Then you add in the knowledge loss thro

I think the differentiator is the amount of deep Math that goes into it. A simple card game is on par with standard app development. But if you're working at lower levels of a world simulation engine that require linear algebra, comput

Sometimes you don't need to make a study showing some number to act on something. It can be a simple chain of logic saying: % of children try to test their boundaries. Of those children some get away with it, some don't. Of those

I can make a study that shows 0 wars in the region for decades despite having an army, and say that the logical conclusion should be to disband the army. People often quote research to mislead and push their narratives. Widen the scope and

This behavior is similar from the time I played a very popular mmorpg - when people selected others for their groups, their criteria deferred to the candidate's analyzed gameplay records (their 'logs') on a website which boil

TBH your comments come off as either very misleading or just uneducated on the nature of performance. Troubling indeed.

Today's browsers tend to be huge memory hogs too. Software's attitude of "there's always more memory" is coming back to bite them as prices of ram increase.

I'm in a country ~5mil population (less than israel's) where men are conscripted and there is a fair amount of angst regarding their sacrifice. IMO, the cause is a mix of patriarchy and voteshare. Factor #2 is no longer true, nowa

By the same 'transformative' standards that allow satire, reaction and commentary videos to exist. And those take 100% from the source and add context, whereas good generated AI images that aren't wholesale copying take like

The "slows progress" part has some bits of truth in it. This is coming from a from-young bilingual chinese/english speaker. Chinese is harder to learn, ceteris paribus, all other things being equal (especially regarding expos

Wrong comparison. IIRC this is a different case covered under fair/transformative use. The length of the clip matters, I think it was like <6seconds. There's a lot of videos/livestreams that use similar clips/voiceove

Extremely easy to do with sound recording software or youtube mp3 downloaders. Takes a little imagination and makes programming less onerous in a deviate kind of way.

This shifting of goalposts just to cater to linux just explains it all. Comeon. If a customer bought a game that says it runs on linux, they should be able to play it on linux well, not just launch it and quit within 5 mins. I get you have

Definitely not. Anyone growing up immersed in face-saving, high pressure, competition and possibly self-help influencers telling them how to achieve will exhibit these sorts of behaviors. Doesn't matter if you're white or black.

Perhaps it's a poor choice of words, what I mean by 'sucking up' refers to understanding the counterparty's mind (and making decisions to close the deal), and it is definitely a part of the game. Every single thing that

Overall, it'll be a worse world if you can't make a living purely on hard skills. If soft skills is mostly about sucking up, and there is no demand for any hard skill, you'll find society less able to stand up to the pressure
