Ultimately, I think we disagree on the essence of the issue and many consider the 'almost enough' option to be worse than 'enough' which is the crust of this issue. That said, I re…

The thing is, information leaks. You can go and read the Windows source code, if you want to, you just would get busted if you actually use it to build your own Windows or somethin…

The tradeoff is that the app runs faster, looks better, works better -- in quite the indirect way. Now that the developers on the core part don't need to spend time on compatibilit…

Ultimately -- the thing is, if anyone is both capable and willing, they can, and sometimes do, fix it. Granted, this combination is rather rare. Most people aren't capable. Of thos…

As a supporting point, right now people have decent GPUs but as people get a taste of the streaming approach on a laptop for example, and with the GPU prices increasing, they might…

And if you tell 2 experts to build something with W3Schools as the resource against better documentation, I'm sure the results will be the opposite. That's not the point though, I'…

Bitwise operators only work on the first 32-bits, so it isn't as easy as `instead of doing the Math.floor operations, check for edge cases and just the same operation as ~~`

They don't spend 30 million per year, they spend 30 million over what they generate. I don't think they'd generate peanuts so as to not even cover hardware costs.

It's almost as if a site for tech has bias for tech commonly enjoyed by the readers of the said site. I'm shocked, truly.

> I'd wish it not be repeated, because we both know you don't really believe it. I'm reasonably confident most people here understand the semantic behind the meme, rather than taki…

I agree with all your points and also agree that honestly, these scenarios aren't far off from real world tasks. I get the main issue, which is you could adjust the workload by 10%…

It had multiple angles it could succeed on really. It had two major issues. The first one was if you went beyond using it yourself or a very limited collab, it would desync, which …

There also other cloud companies to depend on that have been more sane. I doubt that in practice this will cause huge insurmountable challenges, but it's a headache and not a ton o…

I'm not a C++ programmer, could you explain why this is a bad idea?

> People just don’t want to deal with the reality that the Taylor swift tickets that start at $40 or whatever were never real to begin with This. Here's a much more optimal semi-au…

It's making them money even if it doesn't up in a balance sheet. A push from MS that would threaten Steam's business model would only trigger a stronger push towards the Linux side…

Just to clarify, Steam came out in 2003 and GFWL in 2007. Initial Steam was a horrible horrible experience, it also didn't have a store, and it was mainly just something you had fo…

Which also show only a few commits, initial commit being dump of the project like this one. Anyway, I'm not a fan of this style of using Git, but personal projects are ultimately, …

Sorry, but this isn't just a waitlist page, it first lets you give your input, then asks you to register, and then adds you to the waitlist, it just doesn't work.

Yeah, even if we assume the decision is coming from a complete sociopath, there's still, somewhere on the line, someone saying 'look, are you sure about this?' These companies are …

So absurd. Their target is described as games almost-finished in 4 months at most, starting from 0, so they chose mobile tycoons, idle clickers, which are indeed finishable in 4 mo…

Do people want that though? I don't want phd level responses for my queries. I want it to be better than what I could come up in a minute or by searching half an hour. Rather than …

Thing is, people just don't install an OS to begin with - as Torvalds once remarked himself. You don't see Steam Deck users installing Windows, though they very well could, and I'm…

iphone 6s came out in 2015. pixel 4a came out in 2020.
