>The only problem I have with it is it is still really Windows only, hopefully that will improve with .Net Core 3. I've been writing games in C# that run on Windows, Linux, OSX, iOS, Android, Windows Phone, UWP, AppleTV, Nintendo Sw

There is a lot of snow where I live and the ABS triggers all the time and yes some people just slam the brakes expecting their ABS to optimally slow down on ice.

ABS not working as intended could be a surprise to the driver and cause a crash, especially if you become dependent on it. It's just like that AF 447 crash, they stalled from 38,000 ft to the ground because they never expected the comp

Then they are going to make the plastic package part of a cheap accessory for whatever they are selling. They are already doing that to boast the feature list of their products: "Practical widget holder included!"

It's a lie by omission. The title should have been something like: "Nissan Admits Internal Test Data Was Falsified" Boring, I know.

They paid someone a lot of money to design their UI, so they better do something different from the rest of the world, else they would have wasted money.

I never understood the obsession of all car makers to always design EV and hybrid cars with ugly shapes and black plastic all over the body. Can I just have a regular car that works on electricity please? Spare me the tacky from-the-future

This. I wanted to do games since I was a kid, so I assumed I would be the best at it just because I loved them so much, until I got the job. Then I realized I sucked at it. I left the field for a few years, relearned everything from scratch

There must be a name for that, when someone casually says something is simple when it is in fact a very complicated subject. EDIT: After some googling, TIL humblebragging.

What I hate the most about StackOveflow is people continuously questioning the poster's motive instead of answering the question. That often means that if the answer doesn't involve glittering golden code seeping perfection, peopl

It's pretty obvious what will happen; it will transform into CO2 into the atmosphere. But at least it will have given us a few hundred years to figure out instead of piling over the present mess.

For a while, the best and cheapest ISP in Montreal was a beauty products company. They had a shit ton of modems in a back store and a very good admin I guess.

I can attest to that. I'm perfectly fluent reading English, yet my spoken English is so bad I just can't finish a sentence without fumbling and taking detours. Like any language, you need to immerse yourself in it.

Are people really that surprised 1.1.1.1 won't work everywhere? I suck at networking, but I worked that job just long enough to know there is some pretty horrible stuff such as 1.1.1.1 being hard coded all over the place, even in high-

Also, number triads ending in 1 or 11 smaller than 80 need an 'and' conjunction. And numbers ending in 1 need to concord in gender. What a mess. Before the 1990s there were also all sort of over-complicated hyphen rules. Thank god
