Ignoring the success and failure of agile and waterfall. Waterfall was just a way more enjoyable development experience for me. That would probably change if the cycle was lower though. Also doesn't help that many managers I've had don't follow the rules of agile/SCRUM. Seems like people use it as an excuse to be able to change things on any given day but those cycles are supposed to be planned, not the plans.

Pursuing a voice to match that of "Her" is a very weird move considering the story it tries to convey

Ilflish ,

The problem is you can also make the villain a manchild whos sick of people not agreeing with him and the internet will call him based

Ilflish ,

I'm not going to say I agree with them but there are actual reasons. Brand identity with porn seems to be an issue in Japan being one, so nudity mods costing investment. And we have seen mods recently to bypass DLC purchases. Both seems to be led by Japan who have a stricter definition of ownership.

All because one guy fucked up and added nude mods to his system and forgot to remove them before streaming officially for Capcom

Ilflish ,

Moreso then "going full Nazi" just spreading misinformation on sensitive topics.
Feels like a pretty good safeguard until people realize that AI is a not only not the most reliable source of information but worse a full blown liar in its current implementation

Ilflish ,

Nearly spat out my drinks at the leap in logic

Ilflish ,

My brain just went down a rabbit hole of of breeds vs strays and whether it's fucked or not and how the world would look if people treated cat breeding like they did dog breeding and how things would change.

I had this comment open for like 20 minutes

Ilflish ,

Yeah, it's just not really common knowledge to the same style. Seems like most house cat videos are Scottish folds

Ilflish ,

I dunno, rent is pretty cheap on mars from what I hear...

The only way to win the argument is to come up with an association that has nothing to do with computers at all.

I use Linux Mint because I like Mint Ice Cream

Ilflish ,

The four people vote and you still drive off a cliff due to gerrymandering

Ilflish ,

Just because you seem interested. Gerrymandering is a larger part of the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem

Ilflish ,

The only time I see it is when they are defending themselves from zoomers

Ilflish ,

My bussybro

Ilflish ,

The main caveat is the the group they try to be included with is associated with "pride" and we can't endorse pride in pedophillia because it's immoral. Even if you don't act on it, you cant be proud of it. I think the idea of encouraging them is nice but the encouragement almost feels like it should be part of a support group which obviously doesn't help.

I would rather identity and kinks be separated for the sake of the movement but I think there's arguments behind the difference.

Ilflish ,

Is it the boomers this time? I remember millennials thinking that about zoomers and now they've grown up, zoomers have been saying it about Gen Alpha calling them iPad babys

Google’s CEO faces employee questions about layoffs — “Why has there been such an extraordinary effort to limit the internal visibility of layoffs announcements?” (www.theverge.com)

Google’s CEO faces employee questions about layoffs — “Why has there been such an extraordinary effort to limit the internal visibility of layoffs announcements?”::During a recent TGIF all-hands meeting, Google CEO Sundar Pichai addressed what sources describe as a growing morale crisis inside the company.

Ilflish ,

This is interesting because firings I've been involved with nearly always cut the important staff first because they make the most. The more valuable, the more you get paid and therefore the more you save when they go.

Ilflish ,

I am, but also, this is at multiple reputable places so it's a trend more than just one shitty business. It could also just be companies are less likely to let people stay with them in good faith and it might be about new blood coming in to organise

Ilflish ,

I spent about 3 years trying to get into various tcg and drafts was easily the best. There are still try hards but they height is reading the release list so it's basically "dude, we got a Dinoraxis of the Tyberior" "Hell yeah, there's a rosaro here as well". And then they play similarly leveled decks. Thankfully MTG is way better at intermediate levels then Pokémon or YuGiOh. People who play those games actively don't want fresh blood the way they play.

Ilflish ,

Not really. In fact technology is often a great example of good demand but little effort put in to meet it. Open source software is riddled with issues that people are too eager enough to report but not eager enough to fix for everyone . We have an example of Palworld finally filling a niche described in the market for almost 2 decades.

Ilflish ,

Should have been more clear, I'm talking about a 3D open world Pokemon. So the closest one to that is Digimon, which doesn't have captures. It took until Pokémon themselves created a poor version of what people asked for in this instance for another one to appear.

Ilflish ,

Sucks that there's so many layoffs happening in tech right now that my first reaction was "that's not that bad".

Ilflish ,

Slightly more complicated than that. It's also that some countries are way more affected by changes then others. Sure everyone uses fossil fuels but only specific countries export it so you are basically asking a country to cripple itself for you. Same when people suggest we should just not cut down the rainforests. In both cases it would likely be done if other countries paid for it. But right now it's what you say as well as asking people to handicap themselves

I bought a body pillow (without the anime girl) for the same but within days I was in immediate pain come mornings. It was probably just overstuffed but I went back to front sleeping and it immediately disappeared

Ubisoft Exec Says Gamers Need to Get 'Comfortable' Not Owning Their Games for Subscriptions to Take Off (www.ign.com)

Ubisoft Exec Says Gamers Need to Get 'Comfortable' Not Owning Their Games for Subscriptions to Take Off::An executive at Assassin’s Creed maker Ubisoft has said gamers will need to get “comfortable” not owning their games before video game subscriptions truly take off.

Ilflish ,

You can't say that and keep it off the only subscription model that is making any waves. Honestly, if you want subscription options to take off, you need to ride the gamepass wave until it subsides and then build up from their when people are lost with all their games gone or on a subscription that is way too expensive.

Women STEM students up to twice as likely as non-STEM students to have experienced sexism (www.hepi.ac.uk)

We know that women students and staff remain underrepresented in Higher Education STEM disciplines. Even in subjects where equivalent numbers of men and women participate, however, many women are still disadvantaged by everyday sexism. Our recent research found that women who study STEM subjects at undergraduate level in England...

It probably depends on the university. There are definitely dregs of "incel" culture that get in but they can't socialize and are usually left alone. In the workforce, interviews stop them from getting much further then that.

Ilflish ,

I know it's a joke but I could barely join a meeting in my underwear without the paranoia of clicking the video, let alone without them

Ilflish ,

I really do think Elemental was quite good, The advertising was really god awful. It was a movie about cultural and societal boundaries and prejudice, not about a opposites attract romance.
