Except the problem would be poor people selling their kidneys and it’s pretty much a guarantee that lowers your life expectancy and also it allows for rich people to have access to better healthcare and honestly opens up a whole other can of worms.

Why do we even need another film celebrating this functioning psychopath? Didn’t they make a Jobs biopic just two years ago?

Half the commenters basically turned on a dime into anti-vaxxers. Oh, medical science says it’s safe? WHO’S PAYING THEM TO SAY THAT? WHAT KIND OF AN IDIOT TRUSTS DOCTORS WHEN IT COMES TO THE PROPERTIES OF DISEASES?!

I remember the horror show Jezebel comments were when she was initially being quarantined.

I love everything about this lady (well maybe not the eyebrows) and this case, up to and including shining a light on how many people that consider themselves committed to the principles of liberalism will actually jettison them without qualm the second they feel nervous.

Am I the only one who thinks Sheryl Sandberg’s “Lean In” movement (or whatever you want to call it) is a complete crock of bullshit?

Yes, but free speech guarantees that a person cannot go to prison or be persecuted by their government for expressing their opinion— no matter how vile. It does not guarantee that a bunch of walking flacid shlongs get to disrespect, intimidate young women whenever and wherever they want. It’s behaviour meant to exert…

Is the this development surprising? It doesn’t necessarily have to do anything with whether they want to stay together as a couple long term. Even if he’s conscious, it will probably be some time before he’s independent again, to whatever degree he will be. Divorce would affect all kinds of aspects of both of their…

He did a better-than-serviceable job at Everton, considering their lack of financial resources.

Except, having worked in the game industry, I’ve seen time and again players en masse asking for something and then having lower engagement numbers once they get it. There is a bit of a “frustration sweet spot”, so to speak.

“These people have no concept of creative thought,” he said, in response to a person who creates things for a living.

But that ignores the testing cycle. In any software development, it takes AT MINIMUM two weeks to fix and test a single bug. And that’s if you’re in an eternal 60 hour week environment with a full development team.

A lot of posts drive me nuts here. You can get lucky, which is exactly what these modders and users got, lucky. Changing a variable or logic in such a complex multilayered application on a professional level needs to be tested, vetted and ensured to be a viable solution with no negative impact, or if there is impact…

God, as a programmer, this. I hate the notion that I’ll just make a change and we’ll roll out the very next minute hey everythings good to go! Nope, the entire program must be tested, start to freaking finish again, then retest it. We’re actually going to spend exactly as much time testing the fix for this bug as any…

Some bugs are really easy to fix and can’t result in residual bugs while other are difficult to fix and can result in residual bugs. The issue is that an end-user can’t possibly gauge the complexity of the issue solely based on knowing the symptoms (or desired effect). It’s like complaining to a doctor that fixing a…

Unfortunately, many, many industries. The American “work ethic” myth has fucked a lot of people.

You still don’t get it after reading the article do you...

I don’t think that makes sense. Just because something is available earlier doesn’t mean that it should be in the game for that price. If one creates a game with a budget of $2million and that the project is managed such that it would have 20 units of content, why would it matter if the studio spent another $200,000…

Often, that single line of code ends up breaking things that would outrage consumers if it was the developers that broke it rather than some modder. People always pointed to the 60 FPS mod for Dark Souls as being SO EASY, when the mod in fact broke sliding down ladders, made the hit detection wonky, screwed up weapon…

Yes, because the modder has to hold themselves to the same standards the developers do, and the developers definitely don’t have anything better to do than scan forums or whatnot for various bug fixes and put them in the core game right away.

It’s just that simple!
