Last place I worked we were promised a sprint where all we would do is tech debt fixes. Guess what never happened since the top brass kept pushing new feature requests on us. Features kept taking longer and longer to implement and every release we had more and more bugs make it into production.
What happened to small government?
The main branch should always contain working code. You should assume you can deploy it to production and it will work. Not having anybody review your code is lunacy, and ignoring critical feedback is even more insane. You can ignore linting complaints assuming you don’t have a linter that fails the build, but you should not consider faulty business logic as an optional fix.
I did not have to do that with my domain.
That is generally the approach I use, but some games take a bit more setup. I play StarCraft2 for Archipelago and I needed to install it with this app to get the proper script to get it to run successfully. What this app has that Steam doesn’t is the ability for people to create, export, and share custom install and launch profiles for others to use.
With that said I will need to see what Heroic Launcher has to offer.
I’ve only just realized this after thoroughly reading more articles. Embarrassing, but I stand by my statement. I’m starting to wonder if this is a universal greed.
As always the US music industry is showing it is a massive embarrassment.
So it is fine when they throw snowballs at each other but when they throw snowballs at the police then it suddenly becomes dangerous. These are definitely not the country’s finest if they are scared of a snowball, especially if they know their actions make people want to pelt them with rocks.
Can’t tell if this is a native port or emulation. If the latter, no way in hell I’m paying $20 for it. It is even a tough sell for the former.
Joke’s on you. EGS doesn’t support gaming on Linux and the Linux version of UnrealEngine is royally FUBAR so there is no reason to download it.
You’d be surprised. DevOps are, at least by my experience, SEVERELY overworked and understaffed. Even such things as writing a script is not always so easy, especially when security credentials are involved. Depending on the company there may be many layers of red tape for using security credentials stored in a secrets vault, so sometimes such things aren’t even possible since there is no official work request for that automation.
This is a surprisingly common issue. I’ve had it happen at least once in every job I’ve worked. This is usually the responsibility of the devops or devsec teams, and they are usually heavily underfunded since they are cost centers that do not bring in profit.
This is one of the reasons COBOL programmers get paid extremely well. Nobody is learning it anymore and these people are critical if an issue occurs.
“Blame the author, not the language”
Says the person who screams they have never worked professionally with a team before.
There is no excuse to not use statically typed, safe languages nowadays. There are languages that let you build faster like Python and Typescript, but faster does not mean safer. Even if your code is flawless it still isn’t safe because all it takes is a single flawed line of code. The more bug vectors you remove the better the language is.
I had to use this software at one of the companies I worked at and it was such a painful experience. This was 4 years ago, so it may have improved since then.
I have PTSD from people ignoring compiler warnings, so the squiggly kills the intent for me.
I am using CachyOS. I was able to find my way around because I knew what I needed to look up due to existing server experience, but a first time user would likely struggle a lot more.
There is a difference between going from a GUI based OS to a hybrid GUI/console OS.
For both iOS and Android the only difference is where things live. The processes are still the same.
This is not the case with Windows and Linux. If you want to install something in Windows you go to a website and download an installer. For Linux, you find out if there is a package. If not you go to a website and see if there is an app image or zip file. You then need to know where to place the downloaded file, how to get it running (making it executable), knowing how to chmod and chown (it is better to have to do it like in Linux, but it is an extra step), and how to add it to your desktop (there is no right+click and add to desktop/create shortcut option in Arch based distros like there is on Windows). If there is a service component you may need to go into command line and systemctl to enable it.
Your comparison to iOS and Android is not really appropriate.
Can confirm. Just switched to Linux about 2 weeks ago. I am happy enough, but there was a brutal learning curve. This was for a distro that is user friendly, too. I was able to install just fine, but actually getting my environment set up is an ongoing process.
Many Linux distros are getting there, but they still aren’t ready for casual users.
4km deep? Is this where subnautica 2 will take place?
