This will be interesting as young people don't listen to the radio as much as they used to. So you probably want to enforce a check on having am radio and that it actually works because young folk won't notice it not working as th

Some of the scrapers used by big companies do identify themselves as bots by using unique user agents. Of course, it does not mean that they don't have other bots running around without the bot user agent name. Whether those days are o

Problem with this is that you will get a lot of unfinished works. Sales would be checked regularly and as soon as unpopular chapter hits the market and sales go super low, it gets axed. Netflix itself does that too. Look at all the season 1

do British brass bands use a specific layout compared to brass bands from other countries? But we all know from experience that brass sections can be really loud with almost no effort involved

Put it this way. If someone got hold of the vuln and exploited all the users and they all sued you, how much would it cost to defend yourself in court (not even considering winning or losing)

It points to a deeper issue in the Browser Company imo. Clearly, an inexperienced dev wrote that api, a senior approved the PR and no one in the wider team picked it up. And that's a team building the fundamental unit of your digital e

I am not reading your mind just reading what you write. So what is and is not obvious is something solely concerning you. If Steam Achievement is not a score, is Harvest Moon not a game then? Same thing about crafting and building games. An

In the Sims, mortality only applies to adults not toddlers and below, so only a portion of them can die. How is a Steam achievement a score? A score is a scalar value not a Boolean one. And arguably it is not part of the game but part of St

Code explains the what but not the why. And even then, the what might not be so clearly obvious. This is one of those blindspots devs have in that they believe their code to be good and obvious to everyone but in reality it is not even good

A line of code can tell you what it does but not why. Unless you are on a newish codebase, you will likely need comments to explain why certain decisions were made

Ok, so Harvest Moon and similar farm game are not games. Games about crafting are not games. The Sims are not games. I could go on but I think you already realise that your definition is not valid. Btw, I am not disagreeing with the claim t
