Most people when they hear “drama” they think things like the brain dead hissy fits on reality TV. The kind of pointless fighting we should avoid. Destigmatizing the word would legitimatize that stuff.

We really need a better word for this posts topic where there’s very public back and forth but it’s a much more valid moral disagreement.

Or PonyOS

That’s even assuming the book you want is available and wasn’t a super limited printing that you couldn’t even begin to afford in the first place.

For anyone stumbling along. “Retina display” is their marketing speak for higher pixel density than “average”.

One of us, one of us!

Give it two weeks and someone will have created a program specifically titled “Twitter Face Bypass” or something

Nothing.

It’s also not a great language learning system

What you’re describing is a different problem that does exist but isn’t what’s going on here in the US. The layoffs have been so broad and across so many different industries with almost no rhyme or reason.

Several of my friends who have been in the industry for years, and quite good at what they do, have been laid off. Many of the companies fired people simply based on who was hired last (even if they’d been there 3 years and a high contributor). Others fired just based on which team made the least money back (without regard for if they were a support team or some other important group like an infrastructure team not directly developing a product but developing for all the other teams). The steel processing company one of my friends worked for developing their inventory system and such, they told each manager to lay off 20% of their team and didn’t give any more guidance.

The article focuses on the big companies like Google and Microsoft but country wide from the companies with only a few people on up have been laying off developers. This was a safe choice field a few years ago but more is flooded with competing applicants for job listings.

It’s understandable. You want to read the work as to the author intended.

I’d say it matters from work to work. Some like “La Horde du Contrevent” translations apparently can’t capture all the neoligisms and subtlety of the original. Something like Kafka relies less on the specific words usually and more the path of the story and ideas and so reading a translation is just fine.

This feels like Halo Infinite all over again.

Oh, you have identical specs and built at the exact same time? Yeah, half of you are going to randomly have issues and half won’t. Enjoy head casing about that.

That’s probably not the cause of the issues here though. Denuvo impacts game performance but not as badly as Borderlands 4 is seeing. The engine they chose has issues even on non denuvo games. It’s an unoptimized mess and then gearbox didn’t optimize any further themselves.

Or an Expedition 33 new game+ This is truly a great year for games, current post aside

Don’t worry, it just takes you to chatgpt, skips the middleman and interacts with the bot directly

Getting a new credit card can heavily impact your credit score and impact financial decisions for years. It isn’t something that should be done if you can help it.

Many don’t have a choice, especially in the US. Without playing the credit game you end up paying significantly more in loan interest for things like a house or car or can’t even get a loan. One of the easiest ways to keep a good credit score is to have a credit card you’ve had forever and that you consistently use and pay off.

It’s a goodbye screwed up system

A lot of people either forget or don’t carefully track the money as spent when it’s still in their back account so they spend it again. It’s just generally a hassle and more work vs just having a habit of paying off as you go and being able to see exactly what’s still in your bank account.

There’s a fun Harry Potter (fuck this author too) play, called Puffs, or Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic, tat is from the point of view of a random Hufflepuff student.

I haven’t read the paper but they might mean “Generative AI”

That’s the old meaning of it. The new is “clock it”. Get with the times old man.

Or even better, libraries of functions you’ve built up over time from visiting stack overflow
