BURNIN DOWN THE HOUSE

Just because the game failed doesn't mean the whole studio needs to be scrapped... Artists and programmers could still get their chance to shine, without the top level decision makers steering the game towards dated formulas like hero shooters

It used to be my favorite game before I played Outer Wilds. That was a while back, aah the nostalgia.. The Swapper's graphics are also quite unique and aged pretty well I think.

I mean, he's in a similar situation as Toby fox. He has the freedom to spend as much time as he wants on developing updates without worrying about money, so he doesn't need to charge anything or ask money from players.

static typing:

  • afraid to make mistakes
  • restricts your freedom
  • thinks i'm too stupid to know the types of my variables
  • years of programming yet no real world use found for Option<Option<Result>>

dynamic typing

  • bold, fearless
  • null pointer exceptions? catch them and return 0
  • can use eval, easily extendable

That movie was pretty good, shame we'll never see a sequel

Linux Mint makes it very easy to install Nvidia drivers and Optimus. I have used it in the past on a laptop with a similar configuration. It's also quite robust, probably more than Garuda.

That's true. Also I guess domain names in most ideogram-based languages cannot be meaningfully converted to ASCII. The best detection method I'm aware of is detecting a mix of different alphabets in the domain, but I imagine even this has a lot of false positives

This should be ON by default, in my opinion. Also, I believe Mozilla has a massive opportunity here to demarcate themselves as the more security-conscious browser vendor. "This phishing trick works on all major browsers except Firefox" would be great publicity material.

What's the problem with it? (legit question from non-silverblue user)

Just got a call from Rust HQ; they cancelled the project and are deleting all the articles talking about it
