Ah! Your using Kanban then!


Someone has a compiler if statement left somewhere in their code (… probably)


I think you can already with web assembly?



they just send a OTP to your email with the idea that you should be keeping your email secure (and that email providers are more secure than they can be)


The whole site seems like a PoC - the accounts don’t even have passwords! (I could actually kinda get on board with this)


This posts entire comment chain is an interesting example of people that have extensive knowledge in completely different areas of programming to me. And have some concepts I had never heard/thought of.


It really depends on the company. You can make fully remote work, you can make 20-40% work or you can do 80-100% work. However the company needs to be run with that in mind to ensure good communication/team building etc.

You also can’t just change the rules. If you change the split someone is going to be unhappy.

(And accept that your possible talent pool is reduced when you don’t offer remote work)



Could be supervillain problems 🤣 comments about wishing someone would go away and an underling resolves it’s in a more permanent way …

Probably not, it’s just that his entire exec team are spineless henchman.

I think the spacex team is still independent (ish) for now, I fear for them though!


I really want to see the email/message exchange preceding some of these changes at twitter/Tesla.

Is there any pushback/discussion any more, or does Elon just say jump and entire departments vanish?


Haha, so it was never AI? Just an Indian person getting annoyed at the people trying all kinds of weird tricks to see if they could defeat the ‘AI’ 🤣


EF can have big problems with “Cartesian explosions” if an object has two lists of sub objects to return, it will get listA length x listB length items due to how the joins work. You can see how this leads to the explosion part of the name (with more objects or lists).

Their solution is a “split query” option, that does each sub table as a separate query, then seamlessly gives you the combined result.

If a change like this let’s you get those different table lists as distinct lists with the processing and round trip time of multiple requests then it could be a game changer.

(Source - my last week 🤣😭 + lots of EF docs)


SQL returns subsets of all tables with only those tuples that would be part of the traditional (single-table) query result set

So it returns only the data that would be returned from the query, so the filtering is done.

I can see some uses of it. If you look at what something like Entity Framework does behind the scenes to return nested objects, you can see how something like this might help.


For some slightly less common games: “Golf with your friends” is a great mini game to play, effectively really crazy golf online

“From the Depths” build ships/planes/tanks with entirely custom guns, engines etc. then play on the campaign map with fleets of these ships. you can make some really complicated vehicles if that’s your thing. Unlimited player count as far as I’m aware.

A less deep version of that is “Avorion” mine resources to build custom ships (less complicated) then even small fleets and do quests, make allies/enemies as you venture to the centre of the galaxy. Supports unlimited players as far as I’m aware. It also allows you to form an alliance to share resources with other players.


Flying missions to there from Cyprus feels like we are doing it just to show we can, surely that could have been handled much easier by the US carrier…

I wonder which countries we overflew to do it?


If they dump their currency and use USD, then as long as there arnough dollars around it solves inflation right? (Their economy is a blip to the Goliath that is USD)

But if that’s the case, then their currency is useless as everyone knows if will have zero value at all in a few months/years.

It does mean they can’t print money to get out of trouble though… Not that that was going well for them before.



I think that has been an outlier so far, its good to have one that makes you re-evaluate your solution once in a while.

Definitely a time sink though!


OK.

I’m doing them because it’s an excuse to do some interesting challenges however you want and have people to talk about them with.


Thank you for this! I always find out/remember about it half way through…

First day done and work leaderboard link shared!


It finished even faster when it crashes right?


This Icelandic guy has a YouTube channel with great 4K drone footage of the area (and the rest of Iceland).

He is (obviously) doing a lot of coverage in this area currently and has some snippets of info from Icelandic Volcanologists that may not be available elsewhere.


I thought the point of a game engine was to do that stuff…


I guess so, it depends how they are treating them though. Image files (probably) are not being used to distribute malware and are going to create a lot more dead links.

Is this change live? We could probably test it. (Re read the article - not yet)


It’s not as bad as the title - read the TLDR.

It’s a resonably sensible change. I wouldn’t be surprised if they extend it to images etc (on a longer timescale) as I keep seeing people hosting images off discord…


I prefer that they are spending the money one actually developing advanced/new engine technologies than just releasing a half baked cames and a huge profit.

They got loads more money than they expected and increased the scope to match.

(I agree on the pricy ships though)

Even if they went bust and the game failed, I would be happy if other big studios got the engine.



It’s a less cartoony art style I think (although the style in original skyline evolved a lot) we will see.

Remember mods can fix/change loads


That’s an interesting business to be in, it sounds like they just have power plants on boats they can dock where needed to provide power. So if they didn’t get paid they could literally sail away with the power plant 🤣

Probably makes sense for infrastructure in some parts of Africa.


Mostly top to bottom. But sometimes I write the body of the email, then add all the plesentarys after.

Or even write the email, then work out who it’s ‘to’ on the huge cc list…


Not the end of the world if they trim messages before sending them?

It means you can click a line and type there, no need to press enter a few times first.

Not email, but if I’m taking notes in a text editor I will hold down enter at the start to ensure I can just click and type anywhere.

Now, if that pointless whitespace is being sent, I can imagine it annoying people in long email chains.

I generally prefer a mix of the two, you have a chain of linear logic that pulls out clean chunks into methods when they get two complex or need repetition/recursion etc. I would rarely have a method that is just a list of function calls.

As with everything, there isn’t a one size fits all ideal solution, it depends on the exact code.


That’s already the case though, I pay for internet, so does Google.


For anyone not following the link - it’s not an “official” RFC (not by Lemmy Devs).


Are they wanting a tax, or just to be able to collude to put up prices for specific customers?


I have mage hand on Astarion and it’s still once per short rest.

Feather fall has caused me problems (and at least one TPK) I have had it drop off with no combat log line.
