Was going to say that.

@OP:

One of the main skill a developer must have is being able to troubleshoot properly how their code behave.

Break your code in small pieces, check all of them with unitary test (formal or not) to validate their behavior then move to the next step. Never test everything in one shot or you will be overwhelmed by side effect bugs whom will distract you from the real root cause.

Being a programmer is not just coding but also testing and deploying (even locally).

That won’t avoid you being blocked by a silly mistake for hours, everybody did that at some point in their career, but that will reduce your frustration against yourself when you discover why the bug existed.

Do a pause, go walk, change the topic and the next time you look at your code, you will spot the obvious bug :-)

Honestly even the as-is directX with Wine is already quite good. With Vulkan, game over :-)

When the first stage of the invasion started, Macron was the president of Europe. So he had to play his role and present the view of the european leaders, even if it was not aligned with our internal views.

I don’t like him, didn’t vote for him the first time (2nd time i did vote for him to avoid marine le pen election, founded by russian banks btw...) but you can’t use his behavior (amenable), trying to avoid escalation, as "yeah i’m your buddy putin, go ahead" or "i totally trust you’.

Our head of intelligence was fired because HE didn’t present the invasion as realistic (based on normal logic it really silly)... but the whole intel community was fully aware of putin desires. President included. He knew Putin was playing with him. Everybody knew.

But he had to play his role, as EU leader at this time.

I don’t see the benefit of this long naming convention...

It still allow bug to exist... like the fact that, with this code, the player can still play with 0 Hp.

Should have been better to put a "if(health <= 0)" instead of "< 0"

In EU, we know the cost of any wars and the fact creating a new circle of violence doesn't resolve anything.

We don’t have one village without a monument commemorating the dead people from the past wars. Everybody have at least a family member who fight or died because of a war... Just go one or two generations in the past (in my case my grandmother lost 2 sisters in WW2, my grandfather was captured and sent in acamp for 2 years and managed to escape and walk back to south of France. My other grandfather family moved to France because of Franco repression in Spain, another cycle of violence...)

All my ancestors have fought for the land i'm currently on during thousand of years... We have thousand of years of war history behind us... against germany, against the UK, against the whole EU at some point "thanks" to Napoleon, and i could go to the medieval time, or even before when we fighted against Rome... And you know what? I work everyday with Germans, British, Italian people... I didn’t kill them because they are not responsible of their leaders actions and country history...

You prosecute the responsibles of an attack (in the worse case you sent a little squad to assassinate the leaders if they hide and plan to harm you again) BUT you don’t murder all the civilians around to achieve this result. This is madness and incompetence. And that create a new cycle of violence that your children will have to pay at some point...

From me for example. I follow this studio and team since many years and i've participated to the funding of Divinity: Original Sin (DOS) more than a decade ago...

They got money from several sources but mainly because (or i should say thanks to) they delivered good products, they have being able to survive and work on BG3. Luck is not the reason, they've worked hard to achieve that...

Well, we could argue than having everyone in the same building is also a risk (traffic/weather issues could block all operators to come for example).

So having operators dispatched in several towns with probably multiple Internet providers could reduce this risk. In case of real big crisis, I agree it's better to have everyone at voice reach, in the same room.

But, while a global internet outage could be a real risk for operators at home, having everybody able to join from everywhere can mitigate that.

And in case of a global internet disruption (another big risk that could happen), well classic mobile users would have also issues to contact 911 as lot of 4G/5G towers use internet instead of internally owned network to transmit our calls and data (the old copper landline disappear more and more).

Note that I agree with yours points too, their is pro and cons everywhere :-)

Bravo, very good explanation! As fun fact, i still have at work several DEC ALPHA and OpenVMS servers (some are now VM but we still have physical servers from this era managing our data) and Ctrl+C works well!

Totally useless "article". You learn nothing, you have to navigate between poor writing with high usage of explectives. It's like reading a 11 years-old rebel child blog.

tdrl: he use Arch linux, boomers...

it's even worse.

  • he delayed the research of the site by providing wrong information (while he knew perfectly where the crashed plane was... because he walk to it to get the videos footage)
  • payed an helicopter to extract the plane scrape to a secret location (while ntsb was still looking for the crash site)
  • then destroyed the evidence, so the ntsb could not perform any checks

i could add also that he had a fire extinguisher hide in his pant (to be able to access the footage if the plane was still on fire i presume), the original motor was may be replaced before the crash, the plane door was not properly lock (to facilitate his jump)... ha and yes, he had a jumpsuit (no fitting a normal pilot activity)...

Well, all of that was badly done. He's a piece of shit that should never flight again.

Yes, but as soon all jumped, the aircraft dive to land and load the bext batch of skydivers.

The plane is usually already on the ground, loading, before the previous batch touch ground.

BUT the plane must dive far from the skydivers obviously. Was probably not the case here. More you go fast to land, better is the profit (quick rotation = more people = profit)

Edit: whoua, just read the french articles about this. The pilot didnt had a valid license at the time of the accident. He was not fit (in term of health) to fly any plane that day...

You're not gun scientist rigth... but what's your opinion on the gun control today? Do you think the current situation is ok? If so, why America is so different than other countries regarding the number of death by gun ?

What is your opinion on guns and only guns today ? (because you didn't take a position at all. It's acceptable if you're a child but not if you're an adult)
