I agree, the blocker issue’s solution is not one I would have stumbled across. Well played.

It…seems like there may be some issues with the repo…

The whole “Alt-Right Playbook” series is worth watching, IMO

That’s a fair point. I’ve always assumed it was a form of rate-limiting, but you’re right, that’ll be part of their analytics at least

Oh, whoops! I didn’t notice its timestamp when I read it 😅

I don’t hate YAML, but it has the same issues languages like PHP and JS introduce…there are unexpected corner cases that only exist because the designer wanted the language to be “friendly”

Sort-of PS3 Shadow of the Colossus, but the physics engine gives me heart palpitations. Wondering if I should switch to the remaster someday, if that improves anything…

Also, Daemon X Machina on PC, which is fun, but also too story-lite for my preferences.

Obviously bad form, but anyone wanna bet it’s something still to do with Crowdstrike on some of the relevant processing servers?

I want to add to this. I’m not a psychologist, but I have heard a couple times about the term “third place”. It’s this concept that most people have a “place where they live”, a “place where they work”, and then a “place where they socialize”. It has been theorized that the modern working-age population is having trouble with stress and mental health in large part due to the dearth of “third places”.

The “third place” can be, for example, a restaurant or bar that you frequent (think the pub from the TV show Cheers), a book club, a sports club, or, crucially, a church or place of worship.

For Christianity at least, knowing that you were going to see and socialize with the same group of people (who share at least 1 major interest in common with you) every Sunday is apparently quite good for mental health. So, although I am no proponent of certain Western religions in general, I do think their decline has contributed to some of the mental health crises. How much? I cannot say.

For what it’s worth, I have been a convert from naive to aware for a couple years now. I used to like to think naive == UTC, but when data comes from unverifiable sources, you can’t know that for certain…

Yes, testing infrastructure is being put in place and some low-hanging fruit bugs have already been squashed. This bodes well, but it’s still early days, and I imagine not a lot of GIL-less production deployments are out there yet - where the real showstoppers will potentially live.

I’m tenatively optimistic, but threading bugs are sometimes hard to catch

I’m curious to see how this whole thing shakes out. Like, will removing the GIL be an uphill battle that everyone regrets even suggesting?Will it be so easy, we wonder why we didn’t do it years ago? Or, most likely, somewhere in the middle?

That’s hot

I appreciate how on-the-ball you are. Thanks, Shadow!

That’s unfortunate, that’s probably the death-knell for Memmy, as it is seemingly not longer maintained, so this error will likely not be fixed

Orly? Did you have to merge in a couple patches manually, or did the devs do a rerelease with the regressions fixed?

Regardless, thank you kindly for your continued great work!

If “build the server and client in the same language” is a hard requirement, I believe your only choice is JavaScript…

The tone of the post makes me think you’re newer to programming, so I’ll leave it at that, as extensions to this question can overwhelm quickly, but yeah, JavaScript is a fine language for what you’re doing

After extended sessions of any of the Telltale adventures (Walking Dead, etc), I would spend about 10 minutes post-game with the sense that real-life conversations were like, scripted, and I was navigating by selecting the best option.

Arguably, not a wrong assessment of life, but it feels really gamified when affected

I only know a couple singles, but I get the sense Primus is pretty wacky
