Userscripts also use a common interface (for now)

Who knows what will happen after Manifest v3

Currently Steam bans games from using AI-generated assets (for good reason). I wonder if they'll back track on this or carve exceptions because this tech seems really useful for indie devs to add voice work to their otherwise silent games.

My point is that it's terrible heuristic and likely overestimates the actual vacancy rate

e.g. legitimate units can go empty for longer than a week when transitioning between tenants

Wish they took performance more seriously instead of just reinventing another config file format to migrate to

> take one photo every five minutes starting at sunset and stopping at sunrise for one week straight

Seems like a shitty approach to measuring vacancy. And even with this approach, it's only ~5% vacant which is where a healthy housing market should be. I don't doubt that there's a non-zero amount of long term empty condos held onto by investors but the problem is much smaller than what NIMBYs want everyone to think.

Not everybody plays games that need such low latencies

e.g. Simulation games like Anno 1800 or Cities Skyline 2 require extremely good hardware if you want good frame rates late game

Besides most competitive players I know all play on lowest settings to minimize risk of lag spikes so they're unlikely to be the target audience anyways

They're 4-8 month internships depending on which program or study track you choose to pursue. A lot of Waterloo programs alternate between 4 months study/4 months internship.

My program's first coop starts after freshman year (after 2 semesters), 4th coop was after first half of 3rd year, and 6th coop was 4 months before graduation.

Why not just use the free version of Live2D?

That poll seems highly biased

How many people have tried godot/gdscript, hated it, and never came back? They're not the people who are answering the survey

A least now the argument that piracy hurts the developers has some weight

Perfect, that's exactly what I'm looking for

I'm currently reverse proxying a few docker containers with nginx. Caddy seems tempting but one dealbreaker I can't find in the docs is whether or not it automatically refreshes its DNS cache if a docker container restarts and changes its IP address?

e.g. In nginx, I use "resolver 127.0.0.11 valid=30s" so "proxy_pass {container}:80" will only cache the {container}'s IP address for 30s

Most likely as a concession to getting Quebec to join the country

Same reason why we have things like the notwithstanding clause that allows provinces to overrule the constitution
