Whatever a red car is still a car.

It’s dumb to say it isn’t a planet just because it hasn’t yet cleared its orbit. The decision to make it “not a planet” was also made by astronomers, not by planetary scientists. Like people with “Star” in their name know more about planets than people with “planet” in theirs.

Anyways it’s extra silly because if you have “real planets” and “dwarf planets” then what is the higher group containing those two? “Things that orbit the sun”? No, they should both be planets.

There are at least 9

Pluto is a dwarf planet. Planet. You wouldn’t say that a dwarf person isn’t a person.

Ro Laren though

I hear you, but I disagree. My people are great at slacking me or each other when they need stuff. We have a great collaborative atmosphere. They set up meetings with each other and with me as needed, and I’ve heard over and over that they really like that. I have weekly 1:1 meetings with each of them, and usually we hang up after 15 minutes because they know what they’re doing and can get back to it.

Imagine actually going to daily standup, wow

I made a daily meeting invite, and told my team to never show up to it. Lets them show up to work an hour later since I put it in the calendar for 930-10.

Good. Kids don’t need cell phones, and they really are a huge distraction.

Which will also mean a renaissance for classic vehicles for EV conversions. Currently the EV market is too small to really support them, but as EVs start hitting junkyards, it will become a big deal.

Sure does!

You mean the people who are making a sequel?

The censorship gets to me, too.

Try asking bing image creator to draw Jesus. Not a problem. Buddha, Ganesha, David and Goliath, Zeus, no problem. It will give you great depictions.

Now try asking it to draw the prophet Mohammed, peace be upon him. No joy.

Censorship.

Did you just stop reading there? I was saying those projects should have atomic architectures so that “rewrite small parts when needed” can happen

Boy do I ever disagree with this.

For big projects, with multiple people and man-years of work, sure. Don’t start from scratch. But in my humble opinion, those projects shouldn’t really exist. Instead they should be atomic, made up of small page-length units which individually can be scraped and rebuilt.

For small projects, rewriting is often superb. It allows us to reorganize a mess, apply new knowledge, add neat features and doodads, etc.

They aren’t over hiring relative to the number of people it takes to make a game.

I went to school in the early 90s and we didn’t really have IDEs. Just text editors with regular expression find and replace and syntax hi-lighting, none of this “show a semitransparent box with your functions arguments” stuff or linters or whatever.

I still don’t know how to use a modern IDE, I use sublime text. And I debug my code using print statements.

Allow vaping but ban nicotine.

How come people use sql instead of just using text files? I just use text files for everything

I think I’d like it

It still is defensible. I can quote a whole bunch of lines from “talladega nights” and “old school” verbatim. I can sing the entirety of “Amish paradise”, with close to 100% accuracy.

My recall ability does not mean that I’ve violated copyright.
