According to page 2 of the 2000 court sentence [1], it seems that IGR were absolved: > B) I exclude the FEDERAL UNION, CARLOS DE FIGUEIREDO BEZERRIL and CRISEIDE CASTRO DOURADO, ORLANDO ALVES TEIXEIRA from the procedural relationship du

The claim by IGR, however, was that the removal was impossible without authorisation from CNEN, and that they legally lost access to the location and the machine. If this was indeed true and they acted on it, then it would absolve them. How

In the linked article, IGR and a lawyer both claim that only CNEM could authorise the move. And the "handover" to the new owners was very acrimonious, with the new and old owners fighting in court. What seems clear is that IGR los

This doesn't make sense. Unless the scalpers are hoarding consoles or using them for a purpose other than games (space heater? overpriced Netflix machine?), the consoles will get in the hands of a game buyer.

Similar to your reply above about microservices, there are more benefits to ECS than data-oriented design. Composability, separation of concerns, flexibility and simplicity were also some of the driving forces behind ECS.

Game Design and programming are two completely different sets of abilities. Programmers can design a game, and game designers can do some programming, of course. But in modern days, the core way that both professionals interact with engine

I disagree. I don't think there's anything inherently "tightly-couply" in engines, nor the systems are as coupled as tightly as you describe. In modern engines, the allocation and management of resources is often delegat

Great question. I don't think there's a single answer for that, but I see Frameworks as being code-first tools, where developers are expected to do most of the work using code. Users are expected to write things together (views an

It’s not even just controversial topics or politics: people try to control the pettiest things. I used to be active there, and it was a struggle to add “timelines” of band members to some old rock acts even though it was already in place in

I think this is an example of simple vs easy. Writing request code 20 years ago was harder, because you needed to read docs and write a lot by hand. But it was simpler because it didn't add any additional hidden complexity from librari

Postgres from Homebrew used to work extremely well. It was faster and more reliable than Docker, not to mention lighter on your machine. Now, it's unusable.

Yes. Compared to other languages, Bash can be incredibly worse for some things, but much better for others. People who don't realise that won't be able to get the best out of their toolset.
