> Why though? What do you gain other than longer stacktraces with all those wrappers? People always trot out some theoretical notion that a caller is going to catch that framework's different exceptions and handle them differently,

Not sure I'm following honestly. Your primary goes down and it fails over to the secondary (which becomes the primary), but if you can't boot how do you then get another secondary ready to fail over to again when the new primary i

Why would the law being different mean they wouldn't use 3DS though? Surely it'd cut out a good amount of fraud along with the realtime monitoring? I understand that US consumers don't have a stake in this, but can't all

Being a burden on the healthcare system in a country that has nationalised healthcare is being a burden on everyone through increased taxes and reduced spending in areas the money could be more useful. Those erratic behaviours you talk abou

I think there is a reasonable argument to be made that they're a different degree of societal problem. I think there's quite a few people who drink on special occasions, but not every week or even every month (I'm one of them

This was linked from the top comment on the Rust subreddit: https://wiki.alopex.li/LetsBeRealAboutDependencies I think it makes a good point that some of the difference here is just perception due to dependencies in C/

This is a common complaint, but I think the controls are actually very tight. Usually the issue is that the player is struggling with travelling in a vacuum with a ship that can quickly get up to tens of thousands of km/h and it's

It's not mandatory, there's 1 part in Dark Bramble where you can go a little faster if you use a very small amount of thrust. You can just use the momentum you came in on though, there's still plenty of time

Is that reduction absolute or real terms? If it's absolute then that's a pretty large reduction considering inflation

Strange, I would have thought a pro rata refund would be allowable in these cases. I'm pretty sure that's how it works with insurance so I'm unsure why a toll pass would be any different.

There are signs that the blackout will have an affect on their bottomline if it's kept up [1]. I'd imagine that's why they're making these moves to remove moderators participating in the blackout so quickly. I think it&#

The absolute cost isn't a perfect measure for what I'm considering though because it will need to be compared to median real income. Looking at this: https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/databrowser/view/IL

I realise the UK is starting in one of the worst positions for house price pressure, but it does seem to be a general trend in all Western countries. My point is that it seems like my potential children would need to work harder to get the

Perhaps I worded it poorly, but I meant housing as in a place to live regardless of if that's achieved via ownership or renting. Both are getting more expensive compared to median wage as we build less than the increase in population.

Keep in mind that I've said it's one of the factors, not the only factor. But why should my standards be just better than most times in human history? That seems a low bar to me, most times in human history were miserable for the

This is one the factors as to why my partner and I have decided against having children. Not because we think it'll make the situation worse, but because we believe they shouldn't have to deal with the significant fallout from res

This is the actual issue, spending isn't keeping up with the demand. I'd agree that "the Tories are to blame" doesn't capture it, but I don't think they're equipped to deal with the problem. Real terms spe

Have you played Outer Wilds? If you've got even a passing interest in exploration, puzzle and environmental storytelling I would highly recommend it.

While you can grind to an extent in Dark Souls games, I would say the route they've taken is to let you explore. So very often if you're stuck on a particular boss or area you could grind lower level enemies for souls to level alt

The intention is that you do enough hp damage that their posture bar doesn't drop very much at all. In practice though that doesn't happen for most people with the vast majority of boss fights - you either get good enough at the c

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in the UK you can make an unlimited gain on stocks and shares tax free in an ISA. The only restriction is the amount you can place in it per person, per year (£20k) and the vast majority of people aren&#x27
