Those of you that paid attention during the evolution and creationism (the round 2) fiasco should be familiar with what’s going on right now.

Was funny when they said they needed more original games like Hi Fi rush after firing the people that made Hi Fi rush.

What about 3rd Rock From The Sun? I think Newman fits in quite well there too.

I mean … you don’t have to tell me that my opinion isn’t popular, it’s demonstrable. My opinion is statistically insignificant.

There’s a plethora of other things I’d give up like have a slighter bigger phone or a worse camera or wireless charging… I’d also trade those for an SD card slot but no one agrees with me and it’s just something I need to live with.

I was just hoping a phone like fairphone would give me the option to buy a small module or something to let me do it.

Yes, yes there’s adapters … yes, yes, you don’t need to use it … I understand. I just want it.

What’s going on with your keyboard? I’m curious, what’s your native language?

I don’t think I really understood the compilation portion.

Compiling in the web world can also include … type checking which I think is good, minifying code which is good, bundling code which is good. I understand that in this article that they allude to the fact that those can be bad things because devs just abuse it like expecting JavaScript to tree shake and since they don’t understand how tree-shaking works, they will just assume it does and accidentally bloat their output.

Also some static site generators could do things that authors and stuff don’t think about like accessibility and all that.

If you haven’t seen it or want a refresh, you gotta give it a go.

I think you can do const thing = ... as constto lock down the mutation?

I know!!

I really wish it wouldn’t benefit Lex Luthor. If it makes waves, hopefully other similar types of cars will come along by the time my civic needs to be replaced.

I thought it was further along that a pipe dream with the demos and videos I’ve seen. I think I’m cautiously optimistic until it officially comes out and I see reviews.

It has the modularity I like at a reasonable price… We’ll have to see if it can deliver.

Sounds a bit like the Slate truck to me.

I remember when I graduated and went to New York for an internship. I went to the fridge and took a big swig of Coke and was like, whats going on with my teeth and mouth? It feels weird.

Then a few people told me and I was like, why’s Coke so popular in the US if it tastes like this? How come this Mexican Coke everyone is talking about isn’t more popular?

I gave up sugary soft drinks for the most part now. I do have it occasionally but it’s like once a week or two weeks at most.

I can’t remember which one of my phones, probably a Samsung that had Facebook installed and couldn’t get rid of it. People were like, you can just not open it or something. There’s a good reason I don’t want it on my device.

I think that’s why I enjoyed Gone Girl. I didn’t have to like him and his smugness or whatever worked into the character.

Why no games?

The rich will fix it by putting out disinformation campaigns telling you it’s all fake.

balkanization

For uninformed people like myself:

Balkanization is the process of a country or region fragmenting into smaller, often hostile units, typically driven by ethnic, cultural, religious, or geopolitical differences. The term originates from the Balkan Peninsula, a region that has experienced significant fragmentation throughout history, and the term is now used more broadly to describe similar processes elsewhere.

I really want to root for Nintendo but they make it hard.

Opening up my steam library from a console was such a big WTF moment and then being able to suspend games was so mind-blowing.

It’s still not that beefy for triple-A but I’m considering getting GeForce Now running on it.
