I’d like to believe that they were honorable enough

In the future, will you still believe Microsoft (or any other big tech company) has honor not to do stupid shit?

Azure (and all of cloud compute) is the Extend phase of open source. I’m just waiting to see what the extinguish one will be.

Direct deposit is after taxes. Bi-weekly or weekly deposit is the most common.

Take home vs before taxes are very different numbers

$150,000/yr (yes big, less than median for software engineers in the US) is $2k/week, $8k/month

Edit: $2k/week after taxes because direct deposit is the context of this discussion

having a good video game idea is the hardest part, which is why every single video game these days are completely unique ideas that didn’t steal at all from D&D. Hit points? Hit chance? Random damage? Class archetypes? Character Leveling and advancement? Go into dungeon, loot, avoid enemies, extract and return to safety as a play pattern? Never repeated in the AAA Diablo or Elder Scrolls games or indie games like lethal company or in an FPS like escape from tarkov. It was actually those unique ideas that were never copied that were harder than the bajillions of dollars spent on making them with code and artists. That unique, never-copied D&D idea cost jabillions and bajillions of dollars and time etc actually, much more than the billions spent on development really.

Baldurs Gate 3 didn’t just use the D&D rules and mechanics, it was a complete 100% overhaul of completely new ideas and zero re-hashes of something played in the 70s. It was because of these new innovations that was the hardest part of BG3 and all other games totally not derived of a 70s game people played on their kitchen tables that got jobs in the video game industry

I know in northern Maine it’s very easy to dig and immediately get flooded. Know a guy who created a pond by just digging and letting the water fill in naturally

is a guy who always has crew cuts or high and tights i’m finally doing the opposite and letting it all grow, i feel the same though haha but my dad and mom always hated my hair long 😖

Not saying you’re wrong, I’m just explaining what I think of when I think ide. I think of visual studio and its integration into windows dev, Xcode and its integration for macOS and apple dev, etc. I think of vscode as a super sublime text in its goals, or akin to vim/helix

When I think IDE I think Visual Studio or IntelliJ or XCode, these extremely heavy single use (originally at least, C# Java and ObjC respectively) behemoths. But then again I was born in the late 1900s. I think of vscode and atom before more akin to a JavaScript successor of notepad++

I learned to copy/paste website source code into notepad when I was a teenager, so vscodium is more than enough for my needs. I have been full time doing front end web dev, shipping in production, since 2014. I do svelte these days for internal tooling for a well known grocer currently. Having Linux experience as well ever since knoppix came out also helped

Holy shit, it’s an elixir or app, the beam makes a lot of sense for that

one of the 8 planets is being renamed pluto

ocaml and haskell and erlang power like… a shitton of industry production code. If erlang software disappeared, internet dies for a bit until people replace all the broken routers.

itch.io is a sin against the web. Those idiotic people… enjoying non document based web applications… they are destroying the internet!

The godot foundation is a destructive force and must be ended before all of the web as we know it has capitulated to… javascript and non DOM APIs!!!

the web is the display server/compositor of the internet

if you want it to go away, everyone who is working on it and making it work right now disagrees with you

everything you said goes away with canvas and video games.

“durrrr video gaimes no belongy on interwebzzzz bcuz the DOM is for word documents onlyyyyyyyyy steve ballmer said sooooo” – an idiotic luddite

wasm runtimes are the next app platform or will inspire it

that’d be a question between them, no? I wouldn’t trust a partner who wouldn’t want my input. I want to hear my partners input on me having a gun.

coward

I goes some who won the darwin award will be proud of it

that’s a risk they’re willing for you to take

you a woman?
