Honestly, I didn’t even consider this as possible. I’m saving the post in case I’m very bored and want to do it.

Any editor that support LSP has the same (or better) auto complete. All IDEs also have the same (or better) auto complete, don’t even need LSP.
I meant native as in non-web. There are plenty of cross-platform GUI toolkits out there that don’t use JavaScript. Some of them native-looking even. But more than the looks, it’s about performance.
I feel like browser support is such a niche. I don’t understand why many IDEs dedicate so many resources to make it work on the browser. There are already many options to code on the web if you need it.
Why would they copy VSCode including the aspect people hate most.
Had they made it in a native gui I might actually consider it. Otherwise, why wouldn’t I just choose vscode.
This synthetic benchmark is nice a general wisdom thing. But I’d love a more complete analysis taking into account loading from memory, caches, SIMD, CPU pipeline and all of that.
Probably when taking all those things into account (specially loading values from memory) the performance difference of a div and a mult should be negligible.
GW2 is the only MMO I know that doesn’t have other people stealing your loot. All loot is independent for everyone (no loot sharing, bids, etc.) and you get loot from the mob just by hitting it once, doesn’t matter if you last hit it or not.
Docs should be written for someone experienced in programming but inexperienced with the API. If it is about a niche subject (for example VR).
Whenever an explanation contains something about that niche subject, you don’t need to explain everything, but maybe provide a link towards another place (for example wikipedia) that explains it.
Untyped function definitions + *args + *kwargs + args that can be of many types + strings used as enums don’t help. The language that imo needs the most documentation is at the same time the one that lacks it the most.
You don’t need to have wired across the room. You can put them through the wall like every other cable. If the wire tubes are not full, it isn’t very complicated. I put my Ethernet wires in the wall.
Yeah that’s not accurate. They have plenty of oligarchs. Only most of their population is enslaved.
Context: rule 1 is about xenophobia/racism.
Yep. Plenty of china criticism allowed in .ml
Once you’ve played enough, the fact that it’s hard makes it better. I remember the first time I played dark souls, (dark souls III) I beat the 2nd boss months after the first try (i didn’t play continuously for those months obviously). I was just unable to beat it. I looked at the wiki for builds, for that specific boss starts and so on.
Once I beat it, though, I kinda knew how to play, and the fact that the bosses were hard made it better, since now I got a big dopamine hit after I finally killed them after tens of tries.
Now, most games I play I beat them on the first try. Not because I’m good, but because the games are easy. I watch other people play and they kill them first try too. I don’t get that same sense of “oh this is a boss, it’s gonna be hard but fun.” Instead I think “oh no, I was having fun oneshotting everyone and now here comes the bullet sponge”.
Out of all the games I tried to play, only one of them worked.
PS3 in particular has very weird hardware. There aren’t any good PS3 emulators for PC. Basically the only way to play PS3 games is on an actual PS3.
Why do ISPs rotate IPv6 prefixes? Aren’t they basically infinite?
The main reason I want IPv6 is so I don’t have to use fancy DNS for dynamic addresses.
More like a democracy with no term limits and a leader with 90+% popularity rate.
Sure, steam looks powerful, as if they can do whatever they want. But you have to look at why steam is so powerful, it’s because people like steam. If steam uses that power for anticompetitive behavior, people will stop liking steam and it will lose a lot of power.
Just like if the leader does something that the people don’t like, suddenly the approval rating is no longer at 90+% and he loses the next election.
Tbf monopolies are sometimes unavoidable. Like the water company or the energy company (at least the ones that actually own the cables). Usually natural monopolies are nationalized though.
Even if steam is not a natural Monopoly, competition is possible, we allow it to be a monopoly because we like it, not the other way around. There are plenty of digital stores, you can at any time buy almost any game from an alternative, I’m not aware of steam having any exclusivity agreement with any game (except the ones that valve made).
Valve also doesn’t use shopping platform monopoly methods such as artificially making process low by selling at a loss, which is the main problem with other monopolies like Amazon.
It also doesn’t bundle 100 unnecessary services to the subscription. It doesn’t even have a subscription.
Sure, you can’t move your steam games to another platform, but you can get new ones. It’s not much of a problem having games from different platforms anyway, GoG for example even let’s you launch steam games from the GoG launcher. And you can always go back to good old shortcuts on a folder.
The moment steam starts enshittifing, it will be very easy to switch to another platform. Compared with other platforms, like any social media or YouTube.
This is not inflation. Minecraft has been in development for over 15 years. It continually improves, and it’s still not the price of a normal AAA game. If anything, Minecraft is too cheap.
There are also a thousand video game genres that don’t require shooting.
