See's Candy is also what Charlie Munger considered their shift from distressed companies to high quality companies; its sentimental on a company level because it represented a real shift in investment philosophy.

I mean... you've spent how many articles talking shit about Disney and then complain they won't sell you back your baby that you sold to them.

Hard to get sympathy here.

One of the most annoying things is senior leadership thinking that these tools give them the ability to just go do things, then the actual engineers are stuck reviewing the massive amount of slop.

Output from AGIs used by experienced engineers tends to be vastly different quality than output from these leaders who are too disconnected from the slaughtering.

I don't think that's what the original comment was discussing at all...

If governments want to require private companies to verify ages, those same governments need to provide accessible ways for their citizens to get verification documents, starting from the same age that is required.

I think in WC3, if you clicked certain critters enough, they would explode.

He was also placed under electronic monitoring program and immediately went about installing a VM to allegedly circumvent the monitoring software along with searching for a very controversial website relating to pedophilia...

He also lied about using his computer, his wife told on him to his parole officer, according to the court documents.

He was on parole for DDOSing* a former employer...

*Ah, I see your update, guess it was less distributed and more direct denial of service with the physical destruction and all.

Love your game.

Is there any plans for expansions? I find the different maps to be less interesting. I want some kind of harder progression, higher levels of difficulties and of course more of everything that exists.

I found myself out of stuff to do at ~20 hours (which is awesome and beats a lot of games I've tried to buy.).

Sure, that makes sense, if you also get rid of all the cute looking bombs being carried around (gacha games).

I don't have any involvement in OSS besides using it at my job, but I still enjoyed the post because of the notes on AI. I have noticed a similar disconnect in technical discussions between those who see the use of AI as a multiplier and those who don't yet see the value in it.

The company I work for has embraced Copilot heavily and its been an absolute game changer in terms of productivity. When you have a clear problem, it is quite amazing at producing working code that then can be modified. I've really enjoyed the edit in place feature as well. Yeah, I could go through and do all the work manually, but why waste the time? AI is a big time saver.

In simple terms, people want airports, but nobody wants an airport near their house.

The one that tries to upsell hard is so annoying, I can't be arsed to go find it right now, but the other two make it so easy, yet the one that tries to upsell, its like every other click takes you to a "input your credit card" screen.... Seriously annoying.

Just had to deal with this for the first time in the last two weeks when someone tried to open a fraudulent account in my name... Interestingly, this happens for the first time in my life 2 months after I had to write down all my personal information to get a 0% APR credit card from a jeweler store...

It should be a default frozen system, not a default open system.
