Cloud gaming is crap and any actual gamer will tell you that. The niche of gamers casual enough to not care about playing over network latency but serious enough to pay real money for cloud gaming is microscopic.

It's a fine solution but surely just patching the drywall yourself wouldn't be that hard. It's really not a difficult process.

I have tried the CodeCompanion plugin and had good results. I don't use it super extensively but it's nice when I decide to try it.

Things get Rust advertised in the title because the Rust community is somewhat on a quest to assert itself. There are certain things that the language will only be allowed to do if it becomes seen as one of the "big" languages, and advertising the language in a million small projects is a collective shove toward that aim.

I do. It's a device that is often hooked up to my TV so it becomes the shared device for watching things like Youtube.

Sounds like the plot of God Shaped Hole

I think the reverse exists as well. I think I am a much better test taker than average, and this has very clearly given me some advantages that come from the structure of exam-focused education. Exam taking is a skill and it's possible to be good at it, independent of the underlying knowledge. Of course knowing the material is still required.

However you are correct in noticing that there are an anomalously high number of "bad test takers" in the world. Many students are probably using this as a flimsy excuse for poor performance. Overall I think the phenomenon does exist.

I don't know the details but I know I made this mistake and I still have my Free Tier instances hosted in a different region then my home. It's charged me a month of $1 already so I'm pretty sure it's working.

Youtube is a monopoly because it's not a very good business to be in and it basically lives off Google subsidization. It has plenty of openings for competition and none have too much forward movement.

Our team kinda thinks the same thing about serverless but despite that we have some things built with it. And the paradoxical thing is that this issues have just never materialized, the serverless stuff is overwhelmingly the most stable part of our application. It's kinda weird and we don't fully trust it but empirically serverless works as advertised.

I think the window for Microsoft to squash Proton (if that was ever practical) has already passed. Valve will be able to stand up to any litigious bullying and they have financial incentive to do so. And defeating it from the technical side with a new interface would require buy-in from developers, which Microsoft has consistently been unable to obtain.

The problem is that there's no outside way to tell which 50% is the useless half. It's just like marketing budget.

Overcooked is probably best-in-class here. Cooperative zany cooking game. There's a number of derivative titles which are kinda similar if you end up enjoying it.

Your unit tests should just take the result of loading the file as an argument or other type of injection param. Then you can hardcode your unit test config parameters in the test code itself. That's the appropriate place for this kind of indirection.

Storage space is really just tacked proportional to bedrooms, for the most part. My house has what feels like a bunch of extra space because I wanted enough bedrooms for my family. They didn't need to come with so much extra, that's just how they build homes with more than a few bedrooms now.

I would have been left handed when an early childhood injury caused me to switch to right. A few years ago I thought about that and tried re-learning some skills and tasks with the left hand.

It's specific to each task but I can normally get the left handed version as good or better than the right. I am willing to bet most people could do this, you just have to spend a bit of time awkwardly re-learning.

I think what is this ignoring is that "security updates" are generally corrections to defects in the original product.

In principle, a complete product would ship with no defects. You could run it for 1000 years unpatched and it would be no less secure than the day it shipped.

Manufacturers ship security updates because the original product was defective. So it makes sense that they remain on the hook for security updates -- we paid them full price up front.

5% is honestly meeting that benchmark imo. One in twenty? That's firmly a competitor. Certainly nowhere close to leader but no longer a rounding error you can't even see in a pie chart.

Wouldn't extremely generous parental leave be expected to increase the birth rate?

Sure but the comparable idea with Netflix is like one show. You watch that show and then it's done. It took you maybe 8 hours. This kind of game expects a player to log in week after week, dedicating hundreds and hundreds of hours over the course of years.

But players who want to do that are already invested in other games. They're not going to split out time to play this new one unless it's amazing. This thing was $40 and not well regarded. No one is really surprised at this result.

Remember that materials are also largely labor cost, just the labor of all people who harvested refined and transported the materials. This work it largely similar to construction and is subject to the same growth in expenses.

In that situation Tesla would find themselves ultimately compelled to perform on the bids, or pay some sort of damages. They could gum up the works with lawyers for a while but the final bill would get larger as the courts got fed up with their shenanigans.

In this situation the conservation group was fully prepared to make good on their bid.

I live in the region. It is very wet and rains quite a lot. So water scarcity just isn't much of a concern. More effort is spent draining the stuff away than collecting it.

No, you just claimed one comment ago that "no one is arguing" that. Don't make those kinds of assertions in a situation when you know full well someone in this very thread is likely to do it.

Yeah I really enjoy gardening but I don't actually grow anything calorie-dense in my garden. Potatoes are somewhat difficult and there's no way I could beat the store's efficiency on those.

More expensive and fragile fruits and vegetables seem efficient though. I think my efficiency on heirloom tomatoes and strawberries beats the grocery store, again going by unit cost.

We just need to make convictions profitable. If justice remains a cost then it will be done incompletely. I would sell the organs from convicted shoplifters.

A derived signal is generally a closure. The word just reminds you that the signals have scope-based tracking so the framework knows when they have become invalid and need to run again

I believe it does. At least, the better version of this site, lichess, runs the analyzer in the browser.

This is of Apple madness has been my life for 6mo now. I've become the "deal with Xcode BS" guy for our cross-platform React Native app. It doesn't bother me but Apple really does create a lot of unnecessary pain.

I have long thought that a precondition to the continuation of any IP should be that the rightsholder make the IP available to the public on terms somewhat similar to the IPs original publication. So if a game or other work ever goes out of print, the copyright to it evaporates. I think this would be perfectly fair to ensure creators get their payday without depriving the public of access to good old works.
