Similar position. I have some complaints, but otherwise I do like my job a lot and am proud of my work, but I also don't have many options in my area. My boss was rather surprised when I told him I can't afford an apartment and st

Coming up on 9 years here and I'm still finding out new things about how this site works. I've been wondering recently why some comments aren't replyable.

Yeah, I have a flash cart for my 3DS with all my old DS games on it. I can't leave it in the 3DS or it will drain my battery, because it's basically just another entire mini-console running in the 3DS.

That second point can be mitigated by not allowing unsigned code to run in parallel with a game, and generally sequestering games and unsigned code so they cannot mix. I'd consider that a fair tradeoff. I mean, it may open up another v

You are correct, and it doesn't even require a one block gap. Simply clipping the corner of a block can allow a player to clip through as well, which is how you access world -1. That particular glitch can be exploited at either the ver

I often see complaints about Agile and SCRUM met with, "You're just not using it correctly." In some circles, it's almost like a religion that you're not allowed to criticize. After all, it's The Process(TM) ,

I don't believe OP was implying that at all. Seems more like OP is opining on the rather large barrier some people have to living where they work vs. being forced to commute. Some folks end up in a situation where they can't affor

These things always remind me of brains and borgs for Bolo, and the AI competitions people would have between brains. Wish I'd gotten in on that, but Bolo still exists, so I suppose I still can.
