Just wrapped it. It was an amazing module and story, and while patch 2.0 was annoying, the stories and missions from phantom liberty were amazing.
A new employee I took a risk on is not panning out. It's early yet so they have a few more months to gel and get up to speed but early indications are that I made a mistake. I spent a lot of time today covering their job duties and I lost my cool.
This is on me, but that's how my week is wrapping up. Sigh.
In this thread - tons of smart people thinking that the tools we use to replace "make a backup of a file on a server somewhere" should require entire reference books, as if that's normal.
Saying "it's a graph of commits" makes no sense to a layperson. Hell the word "diff" makes no sense. Requiring training to get something right is acceptable, but "using CVS" is a tiny tiny part of the job, not the whole job. I mean, even most of the commenters on this thread are getting small things wrong (and some are handwaving it away saying "oh that small detail doesn't matter").
Look, git is hard. It's learnable, but it's hard. The concepts are medium hard to understand, and the way it does things is unique and designed for distributed, asynchronous work - which are usually hard problems to solve.

They turned the inside the suit moments of Iron Man into pop culture. They could figure it out, I bet!
And we were teased about it on the SciFi channel a bunch of years ago before they instituted cost savings measures.
Yeah, that's what the conservatives love about them. That and all the indoctrination.
That's not how it works in America FYI. Children can't inherit parent's debt. They can have inheritances taken away and they can assume debt, but it doesn't automatically go to them.
Same here when I can get it. Otherwise just coffee and movement. Getting my brain into another task helps too.
Greaaaat choice. Great collab too.
Relatedly, where are memories stored? How can we have flashes of memory from decades ago? Why can we not access certain memories until something traumatic or triggering happens and then it comes flooding back? Why do smells trigger memory?
There's....a lot...we don't know about the brain, wow.
And privacy rollbacks through the disasterous patriot act! In reality it was a longstanding wishlist of cop and law enforcement intrusions on the populace that would never otherwise have been enacted. Warrantless searches and wiretaps! Intrusive scans! Data sharing leading to leakage and being prosecuted for crimes unrelated to the warrant!
The passage of the patriot act is the reason that, in my heart of hearts, I can't completely dismiss 9/11 conspiracy theories. 96% I can, but 4% I look at the patriot act and the wars and I go "hmmm".
Counterpoint, capitalism has existed for only a few hundred years and yet hunter gatherer societies by and large faded out a few thousand years ago. I'm not saying there's a magic bullet solution here and/or we should revert to feudalism. But you didn't make the point you thought you were making.
It's Martin. I like 'em but I get it. He's singing in their latest single Manhattan, and except his song on Screen Violence (or love is dead lol I forget) I mostly skip them as well.
"Heyimatthemallcomegetmebythefoodcourt" is my one word. It's what you would use as your name when using 1-800-collect.
+1 for not bouncing off the folks on the edge like they're the ropes of a WWE ring. I'm always on the edge cause I'm bigger but don't mosh much and at some shows the people are just the worst (paledusk fans you're the worst).
I feel the opposite, heh. I feel like it's a fun gimmick that'll make things too disjointed and hard to follow. But i bet it'll last until the end of the second act, or middle of the third, and they'll get their powers back just in time to fuck up the big bad.
