They felt like it? Their brain worded the thought using “his or her”?

It absolutely should not have been named zeroth() because the reasoning for that is purely pedantic and ignores WHY arrays are 0 indexed. It’s not like the people in the early days of writing programming languages were saying “the zeroth item in the array” - they would refer to it using human language because they are humans, not machines. Arrays are 0 indexed because it’s more efficient for address location. To get the location in memory of an array item, it’s startingAddress + (objectSize * index). If they were 1 indexed, the machine would have to reverse the offset.
Function/Method names, on the other hand, should be written so as to make the most sense to the humans reading and writing the code, because the humans are the only ones that care what the name is. When you have an array or list, it’s intuitive to think “I want the first thing in the array” or “I want the last thing in the array),” so it makes sense to use first and last. That also makes them intuitive counterparts (what would be the intuitive counterpart to “zeroth”?).

Hank and John Green are pretty good role models, I’d say.

I think it could serve that purpose (and honestly has to some degree), but the big thing that I didn’t consider when I was young was that a lot of people just want to hate (or to convince others to be focused on hate), and will find spaces to spread and amplify that hate. I underestimated the capacity and drive of those that would spread fear and anger.

If it makes you feel any better, when I was young, I thought the Internet would bring the world together since you could sit and have a conversation with people all over the world with different perspectives, and befriending those from different walks of life would help break us out of small-town small-mindedness where everyone “not like us” is scary…

Yeah, I might have been a bit too optimistic with that one.

I’m kinda torn because of this. I like for good games to get recognition and be successful. Part of me wants to buy the game and give it a shot because it’s been well received and I’m happy to support an indie dev… But I really do not want to help establish a trend of indies sleeping on advertising/spreading word, then crying “woe is me” after a single week when barely anybody was aware of it, as a way of guerilla marketing their game. I also need to watch a bit more gameplay to see if it’s even in my wheelhouse before I decide to spend $20 on it.

Bopl Battle is a hilarious party game for up to 4 people. The rounds go really quick so it’s a great game to play with friends when you have a limited amount of time, but the fun doesn’t wear out fast either.

Dude I loved that game back in the day. So many great mods for it too

And C) continue in the pursuit of wealth rather than fucking off and just enjoying life with your fortune.

If you like nice shirts with no design or logo, Kohl’s has some really comfortable shirts in several colors and no logo at all. They’re some of my favorite shirts right now.

Pretty sure people have been shitting on AI pretty heavily as well, partly for those reasons (but also for several others).

Can’t go wrong with a slice of pepper jack either. Then again, I’ll eat pepper jack cheese on just about anything.

That definitely feels like Jables had a “come on man, you can’t say that shit in public” moment with KG. I wouldn’t be surprised if they lay low for a while on the band and focus on other stuff until this blows over.

How do you feel about square drive? I’m no carpenter, just someone that’s done enough work around the house, but I’ve found that Torx are the best option but square is a close second (but I don’t think I’ve used them in any especially high torque situations, and they may fall short there).

Not only that, she expressed that she was not certain if she was allowed, asked for guidance, and submitted a provisional vote, which I think was exactly what she was supposed to do. And then she got punished for it anyway.

The city runs a land bank you can buy decapitated houses from for $1k.

Damn, are there a lot of houses that had their heads cut off?

The thing with those is that, while it was a small amount of content, it wasn’t just a mission, each was about an hour of repeatable content that was fairly fun to farm. At $2, they actually still felt worth it with as much fun as B2 was. If they had asked for like $10 each, people would have flipped out.
I’m not a Starfield player, but I would bet this is not even close to as good of a value proposition.

Lol, my weekend is fine, though my shoulder muscles were acting up and giving me a headache which may have made me slightly grumpy. I did not mean to come across as though I’m in a bad mood. I do hope you have/had a good weekend, and I think we likely agree on much more than we disagree. Have a good evening!
