You could, but you'd have to make your own personal twitter account. At that point you're using Twitter with extra steps.

Clearly chess.com was using something like "starts with" to process the re-upload. Basically don't re-upload if it starts with https://chess.com , but filter out if it starts with https://chess.com/

Was a thing. After almost a decade it never got off the ground. And while it might address the core problem (collaborative editing), that still leaves the ecosystem problem: fuse mounts, first/third party adoption in the editor or via

Real time document editing and sync is actually a tall order. To make it editor/tool agnostic you'd need some kind of overlay fs + first/third party support in the various editors (as most editors don't hot reload file c

My hot take on that is it's more profitable not to. There was a time that "I'm feeling lucky" worked well because Google would often answer your query with the first result. But now, you often have to click through a few

Well, it's certainly better than their last provider who they couldn't reach during a critical time, and still cannot reasonably communicate with. They can at least reach and reason with OVH, as mentioned when they got flagged as

It's likely going to be recent devices. Older devices Android was tightly coupled to kernel version, didn't have a good hardware abstraction layer for drivers, etc. Basically android has been working on restructing itself under th

It'll certainly depend on your yardstick, I agree. Scientically, technologically, we've seen more progress in under a century than we've seen in millennia. It's maybe easy to hand wave that off on advances in machine com

Seems like you started a reply before my toned down edit. Apologies for the harshness. I can understand it as a way to explore the problem space more and probably as a funnel to upsell other devops services. I also get that products, and pe

Edit: my first comment was a bit harsh. The more toned down version is I find the whole thing suspect. It costs someone time to do this, so "free" doesn't scale. That someone would want to Trivy install, tuning, monitoring fo

AFAIK, it's the same as any other language w/ Ruby. Http micro service, IPC, or FFI. There were some attempts to do inline crystal, like what Mojo does in Python, but I don't know if any of them became stable long term soluti

My understanding, it's ruby like, but statically typed and compiled. Basically instead of trying to retrofit ruby with these features without breaking things (like Shopify and friends do with JITs, AOTs, sherbert, etc), this is bottom

I imagine it's a necessary component to assessing damages. Aside from the criminal component, the claim of inflicted pain/suffering is necessary if they want to seek damages. IANAL, but I suspect that claims along the lines that i

I can't think of any books off hand, it'll vary depending on what kind of game you're making. Like the AI in F.E.A.R. will be different from Starcraft, which different than that in XCOM, etc. And if you're scaling diffic

It's kinda careless to rewrite history just because a repo is large. Any reason you aren't doing a partial/shallow clone?

Conventional game AI is usually search algorithms for movement (like A*) + finite state machines for behavior. No network calls to LLMs, no machine learning, etc. At the fringes, throw in the odd markov chain for procedural text generation.

I've been doing this since college. It just makes sense. You can build a desktop + a cheap laptop for half. I don't have to really worry about how what I'm doing affects battery life because it's consist as a thin client

For a lot of games you can simply copy out of Steamapps/common and run the exe and it'll run like a standalone copy. For games that use steam features, you can drop in a steam emulator[0] to shim the API calls. I use this for when

IANAL, but as I understand it, the basic idea is like how saying sorry can be an admission of guilt/responsibility in some legal systems. Once you start moderating, you admit it's within your ability and it's your responsibil

Bleaching something is an active measure. How well you clean depends on how long you let the bleach work, how thorough you are at getting full/consistent coverage, how frequently you sterilize the surface, etc. This can be a passive wa

It's a mechanical method of action rather that chemical (think targeted receptors/activation sites). An oversimplication would be to liken it to barbed wire. As for you next question, they call out the need to investigate making i

Indeed, that's kinda my point. It seems like a desperate attempt to force licensing talks, it was never going to happen without getting licensed, and licensing was probably never going to happen organically. It seems they were hoping t

I can't imagine it was any better if there was enough perceived similarly between the prequel and the sequel that they sued. Further, it says something about the writer that they didn't foresee how this would play out.

There was no way they were going to make seven unlicensed books without getting sued into oblivion. It's reasonable to summize that they always intended to become an official work. They likely sent scripts/drafts in the past looki
