I've seen the theory that this is why changing to a new framework/language seems like magic so much of the time. That it's not so much the differences in the technologies as it is your knowledge of the problem.

It's probably a little of both in reality but it's an interesting idea.

I'm using Phoenix for my side project on a Windows machine. It hasn't been too problematic for me. Maybe something changed since you've tried it.

This is probably my favorite novel of all time. It has a little bit of everything: romance, action, philosophy, religion, history.

The only thing I'll say is if you've read that Assassin's Creed is "based" on Alamut, you might be a bit disappointed. I would say it's more of a "heavy influence".

I think this is one of those rare circumstances where the article would have actually been better if it were longer. I've got almost no idea what actually happened here or why.

My wife is a researcher and it's astounding to me how many people she works with ignore point 1. Almost everyone is dating other people in the same lab or at least the same institution.

As you can imagine some people do great with it but I'm also aware of some catastrophes.

I like to think that our relationship, where we're free to vent about our work but also talk about and enjoy lots of other things, helps to keep us both mentally healthy.

It's unbelievable to me that there could be dracula's worse than the one in Blade Trinity. I'm going to have to see those.

Could someone explain this to me like I'm 5?

>The epic-length post is like those movies that would've been 10 minutes if the people just talked with each other.

I was thinking this throughout a large portion of the article. Imagine how different things would have been if Julian and Carl stopped emailing each other "rapidly" and "frantically" and picked up the phone (or setup a Zoom meeting or whatever).

I use the regular vim extension in VSCode. How does this compare to that?

From the same line:

"Weekly usage of VR devices moved to 14% from 17% last Spring;"

This is surprising but I'm more surprised by the finding that "26% of teens own a VR device"

Is VR really getting that popular?

They're different genres but have some similarities.

From what I've read they already typically pat down and wand competitors.

I was thinking the same thing. Seems to function pretty much the same way.

According to Axios it's mostly COVID and injuries.

Highly recommended. Definitely seems like they'd be in your wheelhouse.

I actually haven't played any of those games but I'm surprised the author(s?) didn't mention any of Daniel Mullins' games. Pony Island, The Hex, and Inscryption are all really interesting "meta" games in the same vain as The Stanley Parable. Inscryption being the one that I feel functions the best out of the three as both a commentary on games as well as actual gameplay.

The outside edges are softer and the interior lines are different. The new one has less lines overall and has more of the deep red-orange color.

Valve made a documentary about pro DOTA 2 players a whopping 8 years ago (it doesn't seem that long ago at all). I bring it up because I remember at some point they mention that your reaction time drastically starts to decrease around the late 20's or so. I'd imagine that may also have something to do with it for fast-paced games at least.

Here's the documentary (it's kind of more of a commercial but it's still pretty good if you're interested in esports)

Okay, fair enough.

But I don't think the average user would consider this "unbiased" and "not filtered" as DDG has claimed their results are.

>This was never a thing that DDG claimed they were for. DDG is about privacy!

DDG absolutely claims to give more neutral results.

So this is a $1.99 coin flipper?

The only thing I've really struggled with when trying to get into using vim full-time is navigating my project. In VSCode I basically hit CTRL+SHIT+F -> "portion_of_a_function_name_or_something" constantly. I abuse the heck out of global search. Is there a way of navigating your project in vim that's similar/easier?

How do vim people quickly navigate their code without going "what was the name of that file with that function"?

As much as I love this game some of the story really starts to fall apart around those points. I used to think I was just overlooking something or some details were lost in translation but after playing more of the series it seems like convoluted plots are just kind of part of the Final Fantasy style.

note: I've only played the original game and the remake on PS4 and seen Advent Children.

Same here. It's not a big deal once you get used to it but after years of always having indexes start at 0 it just seems... off.

> But Dune is barely out for a few months - it's a blockbuster, for sure, with enormous production budget, lots of public interest, etc. But so was Jurassic World, the Star Wars sequels or the Hobbit trilogy. Whether Dune will become an all-time classic like Laurence of Arabia remains to be seen.

Those movies have worse visuals than Dune imo.

There is a difference between CGI and using a green screen. I didn't watch the whole video but I didn't see any Computer Generated Imagery.

Hey, my 5X did the exact same thing. I couldn't find anything on the web about it happening to anyone else. I thought it was just me.

The thing died on my desk at work, wouldn't even turn on, just a few days before I was going on a long trip so after a few hours of looking for fixes and talking to support I just went to an Apple store and got an iPhone. Now I at least feel comfortable that if I have an issue I can go to a physical store and get help in a pinch.

That's kind of always been Mozilla's thing.

The article is clearly about drinking alcohol -- not trace amount of alcohol in your mouth.
