Agree on stack overflow. And part of learning how to program is trying to structure logic into thoughtful questions.

With R specifically I’d recommend looking into the tidyverse library for R. Or at least understand the libraries your work environment will be specifying to make sure you’re on the same page.

Ahhhhhhhhh!

Not sure how to take this. Out of all people who handle my data at this point - Apple seems to be towards the top. Not the top - but above many who handle my data and above google specifically.

Can you elaborate on this? If you have a moment.

As others have mentioned - I would second. A good website. Let them come to you. Give your solutions to common problems. Create a github. Provide repeatable examples on your GitHub and encourage contact for custom solutions.

This won’t be a multi million dollar business. At best you’ll give yourself some work to get your name out. Companies don’t talk to each other - but maybe your niche is different. This is really the only path I can see without attaching yourself to a larger entity.

Surely it will be. Even if there’s not official drivers - which I’m guessing will happen soon - the community will probably get it going quickly. It’s got to have a close enough interface to a standard ps controller I wouldn’t be shocked if it works out of the box.

20 years on giant enterprise codebases. And any enterprise worth their salt at this point will be scanning these servers and flagging eosl software.

My experience the last five years of the 20 - security and service life trumps all fucking complaints about complexity.

To the point where it’s the opposite and I’m fielding weekly questions about why we’re still running an older 3.7.9 version. Among 50 other things.

Meh. I’ve ported a fair many py2 projects to 3. At this point just bite the bullet. Even from a security standpoint. Trying to not let my bias seep through - but it’s been so long.

That’s fucking heart breaking. Thank you for sharing. Thank you for doing what you did. What a good person the boss was.

Love all the ideas. Was an avid subscriber on the platform I won’t name - and support them here.

One opinion though - and not a ride or die opinion - just a thought. What if you made tags to categorize certain options. #vintage for things that are old and outdated but may still be obtained.

So still allow it - just make sure it can be quantified and understood by readers/posters.

I’m not a fan of certain days - that just discourages participation - but tagging is a great option to allow posts at any time but allow others to filter.

Couple of tag ideas

  • vintage for older items
  • promotion for self promotion
  • diy for posts that encourage instructional material

This way you don’t push off posters and allow a gentle path to posting and categorizing that will help others later on to filter and search. If I ever went to a sub-thing and saw a rule to not post until x day - I just ignored it and moved on to other communities.

Sometimes I wish I could have a job where companies just say “hey should we make this decision” and I tell them “that’s so fucking stupid no one will actually like that” and get paid well for it.

That’s my dream.

Others have already replied with this info but I’m just spelling it out for anyone who is not familiar like me:

They fucking named the brand new game mk1. Is it a remaster? No. It’s not a remaster. Is it a recreation of mk1? No. It’s an alternate timeline game given the worst name in the history of naming things. It’s genuinely a brand new game.

I won’t help the conversation here but I really tried to give them a shot. I don’t know if it’s Brian Herbert or the second author that is bad - but it was just such bad writing. I even gave it another shot years after I finished the last Frank Herbert book in a second attempt. Got halfway through before just getting frustrated with it. Tried multiple books just to mark sure I wasn’t hiding one too harshly.

I wanted to. I wanted more Dune content. I may have even given it much more of a chance than I would with any other sci-fi series.

 

Anyone watching this at all? Made a post in some tv subreddit - but as far as I can tell there are no discussions and I really don’t want to switch back to Reddit to discuss one show.

Thoughts so far if you are?

 

Thoughts so far? Spoilers below

“I cannot tell a lie” sounds something like a magical creature would say. I’m not even done with the episode and major suspicion from him.
