It’s irrelevant in terms of the transfer of the title, but it might affect who gets to challenge the current champion. E.g. the opportunity might go to the competitor who’s won the most matches since they last fought the champion. Or it mig

That’s one way to measure it, sure. Another way is that archers can shoot 2 tiles away. Part of the abstraction of the game is that the map for cities and the map for units are at different scales (despite being the same map), and scales ch

Both 5 and 6 were quite weak titles on launch, and they improved massively over many years. It seems like the starting point for 7 matches this trajectory. There is some criticism that features have been removed to be re-added as DLC. I won

Sexual preferences and such are special category data, and if you are an engineer dealing with this stuff you should treat it as though data breaches could get someone killed. Sure, part of the responsibility of this is on management, but i

Is this related to what almost killed CollegeHumor/Dropout? IIRC facebook were lying to them about how well their facebook videos were performing, so they hired a large team based on that ad revenue. When them + advertisers found out t

You’ve maybe not had a use case for sortable uuids, so I can provide one: Columnar databases like Clickhouse don’t have the kind of indices that you’d be used to if you only used OLTP databases like eg Postgres. Instead, you essentially get

It's different because if you imagine Spotify only had 2 users, Alice and Bob, and Alice listens to Indie Band X 10 times a month, and Bob listens to Megastar Y 10,000 times in a month, Y would receive almost all of the artist revenue
