Reply to What do you think would happen if all the porn in the world disappeared this very second? by Cleariam
I think it would be cool if it only lasted a set amount of time after which it disappeared magically. Like a retention policy.
We should implement that.

Reply to comment by voxpoplar in assassins creed pumps out a detailed thorough brand new AAA game every year or two. charge only $60 for it. then it's 50% off in 8 months. but i know nobody who plays the game. makes you wonder by twovests
The first one kinda sucks. They don't have any skill curve and the fights are all the same. If they want to make a level harder they just add more guards and say you have to still not get spotted once, but all the mechanics stay the same.
In some of the later ones, they have more weapons and you can have massive fights and steal guards' weapons, they're more engaging I thought.

I played like three of them in a row and they were fun but almost identical.

Reply to comment by devtesla in watching twitter implode is pretty fun tbh by hollyhoppet
I think the way he's messing with verification has a good chance of tanking the place. Either he's going to walk it back or a lot of high profile people who twitter users care about but who don't depend on twitter for their jobs will just leave. This was already happening but it will get much worse.
The ad revenue dropping as companies quit buying ads will be a slower thing. I think they'll probably come back if there stops being so much bad press about it, but they may not, twitter is not that good at converting views to sales. With the billion dollar a year debts, I don't know how they're going to get ahead of it.
And with the chaotic layoffs (layoffs were probably already coming but there was no planning at all) I wouldn't be surprised if there were a high profile hack or prolonged outages as all the security and SRE teams were gutted without much planning.
I think the site will keep going for a long time but it will get substantially shittier very quickly and begin a long-term decline.

Type hints are mostly used for static analysis tools, and for that it works but it is very annoying to put them just to satisfy your presubmit checks. Especially with the IMO kind of clumsy syntax. But they work well. And they do prevent very annoying bugs.

Reply to comment by emma in my work is being reviewed by a self-proclaimed scalability expert, and now i'm wishing i hadn't walked back on killing my career over the transphobia incident that happened last month which would have left me unable to pay my mortgage by emma
If sending a pull request and then noticing a small problem and fixing it while it's out for review is a crime, then LOCK ME UP, officer.
Also how do you do a performance and scalability review and not primarily base that on profiling and stuff. I gotta get in to this business, just kinda eyeball the codebase and go based on vibes.

Mastodon is a great site if you like people lecturing you about how you should and shouldn't use social media.
