Orange Season was a pretty neat game when it was being made in rpg maker. When the devs changed and it got shifted into unity it turned into an awful mess.

If a tool were created that properly converted an UML diagram into a project without any need for code, all the programmers that lost their job to this tool would then be hired by the company that offered it, in order to give maintenance and support to everything the customers want in their programs.

It would be removing programmers from they payroll of some companies but they would still be working for them, just further down in the chain.

The same is true for AI. If AI could completely replace programmers in some area, it would need a lot of programmers itself to keep dealing with all the edge cases that would show up from being used everywhere that a programmer was needed before.

Windows, in the past has been known to sometimes overwrite the Linux boot loader after a windows update.

Linux (ubuntu) do that pretty often too, people just don’t notice it because they’re unlikely to be running any other bootloader if they have Linux’.

Skype for business barely had anything to do with Skype tho, other than the name.

If they bought the domains and fired the people it should be easy for someone else to start a new site using the available talent pool to quickly become a relevant name as well.

Me personally, I strongly dislike IGN because (other than all the common reasons) they force me to access a poorly translated version of their content when I’m perfectly capable of reading their originals in English, so even if they have an article I’m interested on, I can’t easily access any decent version of it because or my geographic location.

“Damn, what a coincidence that they only studied people who happened to have it.”

(jk of course)

We’ve had enough of artificial intelligence so they’re switching to artificial stupidity?

I don’t think I ever used multi-player in that game back on ps4. I didn’t even remember it had one.

Nice, been wanting to play that game for a while now.

Wait, Ghost of Tsushima is available for pc?

Why wouldn’t it?

I had to do some soap integration last year and it feels like it only got worse with age.

Yes, I trust my coworkers and our company’s workflow enough to produce better code than that.

Speaking specifically about npm: A ton of packages used as dependencies for a million different things have very loose quality control, some even merge community PRs straight to release without checking the code in any way. More often than not I have run into packages maintained by people with no connection to the original dev and don’t even know how its code actually works.

I remember a couple years ago I needed to read zip64 files so I picked up the zip file definition and implemented the read operation for it in the package we were using for zips. I only implemented a very small subset of the format to strictly solve my problem. I opened a pr to them saying “here’s some quickstart of you plan to add full support for zip64” - next time I checked they has merged my pr as if was and now were having folks registering issues for incomplete zip64 support.

I want that wallpaper.
