I didn't realise Valve had gone into vaccinations, but Mumps, Measles and Rubella are nasty fuckers.

Unit tests, yes, but you don't only do unit tests. Integration and e2e tests still exist.

Was there even tests?

I'm not sure what's with your first sentence. Everything else you said agreed with the point I was making...

Christmas Robot? Axel F?

The issue is your mindset.

You write bugs because you have something to learn. You're so focussed on what you're making, that when a learning opportunity arises, you are not open to it. You're just looking to speedrun/hack it.

You need to drop the delivery pressure and enjoy the journey. When a bug comes up, celebrate it "ah, you got me here. Interesting. What am I missing?". Then you slow down, focus not on solving it, but understanding it. If you understand it, the solving is easy.

If you consider learning "not progressing", then you need to reflect on what benefit the pressure and delivery focus is.

Garbage in, garbage out. Keep feeding it shit data, expect shit answers.

Real mugs.

Henry Ford invented breaks to extract more out of the peasant Labour.

The fact we're years later and cognitively demanding jobs don't support this well show how amateur managers are and his spineless devs that enable them are.

In agile development. You do a little, release. Otherwise it is too big and may never be done. The fact they committed resources to improve this is a positive. The hope is they build on it and add more options.

However, if they get trashed for trying, they and many other companies may not try. Why spend money to get a bad reputation when the spending nothing creates less I'll will to the company. That is ultimately the decision Product Owners and Designers will weigh up.

I think for progress, the best approach is maybe "positive first step but more options are needed for non-bonary for this to really make players feel comfortable".

From a technical perspective, separating pronoun hard coding from the models gives more scope to give more options in the future, however, as someone mentioned, there is a lot of art work needed on assets and animations so the new shapes function the same in all cases.

I know enough, little one. Maybe you do.

You're insufferable. Surprised you still ain't on reddit. That's where the corporate bootlickers are. I guess Lemmy.world is the next best place.

Hi all, I acquired moderator to recover this sub. I was dreading helping to build the community only for it to get spammed out of existence. This is our sub and we need to figure out the best way of going about it, what it should contain and what it shouldn't contain.

I have no desire of being sole mod, and perhaps not at all long term, and I would like people to join us.

I'm reluctant to dive into promoting people and regret it, and don't want to hold off too long and leave that all to me, so I'm open to feedback or challenge on how we do this. Maybe it's not my call at all. A few people may shine through as good people to take this forward and help build this community.

Please feel free to give your views on what this community should or shouldn't be. I will link to privacy and relevant communities so we can keep this one focussed.

A big shout out to [email protected] at https://lemm.ee/post/704704 for helping to avoid fragmentation. They probably have a claim for mod if there is no objections.

 

Discuss software recommendations. I locked it as I don't want it to be messy and hard to consume. Feel free to say anything here regarding that thread.

Here I will pin a list of recommendations for software. Getting started can be daunting, and it'd be great to pull that information together here for newcomers so they can take practical steps to degoogle their lives.

These items are ones either recommended multiple times or seem to have some form of consensus on them being good and privacy focussed. I will link discussion topics so people can see the logic and reasoning behind recommendation. If you are not happy with anything here, please discuss here: https://lemmy.ml/post/2262409

If you would like another item in this, please create a post discussion and we can pull it in and link to it.

Does anyone know a good FOSS app for managing task lists or notes where you can use checkboxes to mark off what is completed and what isn't?

Thanks.
