@CeeBeeChan@jimmyjohnsyum@FloatyLil His 2 is the only problem. Stomp can be jumped over. Heal = crippling/healbane. Ult = dont clump up together. 2 on the other hand, no counterplay.
Deadlock is a fun game but there's so many characters that completely suck to play against.
Like Dynamo is crazy OP but no one talks about it.
Gun characters farm for 40 min then become thanos.
And Doorman requires you to be on a registry to play.
@BasedLPLEnjoyer@OFerickk@nnnstrs L take, there really wasn't much you could do once she got unstoppable, ricochet, silencer, and tier 3 ult, I'm so happy they removed the two targets on tier 3
My co-founder Ernst called me today at 5am
"Fuck, our platform is down, nobody can access it"
"Not great, but nothing we can do" I replied
"What do you mean? I'm pushing a fix right now"
I jumped out of my bed in my silk pyjamas
"Do not touch your laptop, it's Saturday" I screamed
He went quiet but I could hear him typing
"Ernst, it is illegal under several EU directives to perform labour on a mandatory rest day" I said firmly
"We will lose our clients..." he said quietly
"Good. Any client who expects work on a Saturday is not a client worth keeping" I said
He said "ok" and hung up, but I revoked his access just in case
In Europe we do not let profits decide when we work
That's why our companies win, and American startups fail so often
@eurofounder We actually provide free healthcare to everyone BESIDES our taxpaying citizens. That is a problem we need to remedy.
Now.... let's see you pay for your own defense for once while still giving away free stuff, Europe.
@eurofounder Thats just a fairytale. You are allowed to work on Sundays. What do you think do all the Cafés, Restaurants or hospitals? You just habe to be compensated with extra payment if you are forces to . Thats the difference.
The AI soyboy circle of doom (yes 99% of all you guys):
1. Wow, it just one shotted this???
2. I'm so productive, I can make everything I want
3. hmm, why does it change 20 files for this simple feature?
4. This looks easy, why does it not fix my bugs??
5. Let me add more skills and tools
6. They must have been nerfing those models
7. We never hear from BRO again.
Deadlock needs another avoid slot, and at least one of them needs to be guaranteed.
This game is becoming so ridiculously unfun, and idc if it's alpha, I should be able to control it in some way.
@eurofounder This is parody right?
Otherwise it’s retarded.
Racial profiling is just and reasonable when certain races disproportionately commit crimes
There have been cases of sexual harassment on our street in Berlin
Two women were attacked in April near the Lidl store
Neighbors called a meeting to discuss this
"We need to do something, these Somali migrants from social housing are doing this!"
I raised my eyebrow
"Police is useless, we should do a neighborhood watch, so we feel safe!" one woman said
I could not contain myself any longer
"Are you seriously going to bring race into this?" I asked
The room went silent
"I was one of the victims you idiot" the woman shouted
"That does not excuse prejudice" I said
"We just want to feel safe walking home" she responded
"Safety built on suspicion is not real safety" I said
Of course we must protect our wives and daughters
But racism towards minorities is never an answer
The near future:
AI generates code.
AI tests code.
AI commits code.
AI pushes code.
AI reviews code.
AI deploys code.
So, developers don’t write or read code anymore.
They just do two things:
1. Tell the AI what to do.
2. Review *behavior*.
Result?
Human code readability won’t matter. Only AI reads it.
Human code review will fade away. AI will be more effective and reliable than any human.
“Code quality” is dead.
Behavior is what matters.
@PR0GRAMMERHUM0R if you are good at code you actually code ... the true is that be good in productive work suck, you make real money if you are good to use the work make by others
10 minute queue just to be the only one with over 5k objective damage what if i blow my head off my shoulders in front of yoshi do you think that would be enough to fix this dogshit mm
@Jonas_Ceika The current version of ChatGPT is not natively multimodal in regards to audio, meaning that it's focused on speech to text extraction and little else. Gemini can do it though.
@sahill_og I agree, I think, and might be off on a tangent here... That desktop to web is secure, keeping the web flat file and everything local is the smartest thing to do.
Online databases don't make sense anymore with unlimited attack vectors and updates needed.
@the_octobro@DanielcHooper@TheGingerBill Try nesting two structs and passing the nested to a function. This is so easy in C but required indirection in rust iirc
Bjarne Stroustrup (creator of C++) recently gave an interview to the StackOverflow blog...
He answers a few interesting questions... I share me thoughts after each Stroustrup's quote.
1. What is the best way to handle errors in software ? It depends...
« You could terminate the program. Now you don't have the security problem and wrong results. And if you are in a server farm with 40,000 processes, that's probably the right thing to do. Then you could give some kind of error message somewhere. That's a little bit hard to do for a vector access, but in many, many cases, giving an error code will be a reasonable thing, and then you hope people test the error code. And my favorite is to throw an exception.
That is, somewhere in your program, you have something that catches all exceptions, and you terminate if that's what you want to do, preferably after giving dump of the information of what caused it, so that you can fix it and you don't get it again next time. Or you have a more specific recovery mechanism, which is needed in some cases. Say if you run out of memory on a small computer that has separate memory banks, things like that. So what is the right answer to that kind of problem? The memory exhaustion, out of range access? It depends on what you're doing. »
Things go wrong. What do you do when things go wrong? There is no one strategy that always work. It depends on your specific application. A reasonable option is to just stop, halt. But that's not always what is best!
2. On code guidelines...
« I'm working on something called profiles. Note the plural because my experience is that different organizations, different environment, different applications have different criteria. I actually think that people who talk about memory safety and only memory safety are not very realistic. That's more propaganda than it is good engineering. »
People often seek some universal coding guidelines, but that's not possible. What is unacceptable in code base A could be desirable in code base B.
3. On safety...
« People do what I consider unfair attacks on C++ by using examples from badly written C. And you don't have to have badly written C, and you don't have to have badly written C++.
Of course, you can find examples that crash, but you can do that in any language and you do. »
I have worked, and I still work, on very large code bases that are mission critical. If you are a competent C++ programmer, you are just not going to see null pointer accesses or memory corruption. I see with students who just started to learn system programming a month or a year ago.

@NolanBlunder@wearykevin19@lemire You have never written C/C++ on a real project if you believe that derefing a null pointer is a real problem, dereferencing a null pointer immediately halts the program and you can see exactly where it happened. The memory corruption point is also so easily caught with valgrind.
Be careful of this scam going around
A guy messaged me and offered Jeff Bezos’ nudes for only $500
I got scammed on Friday, Saturday, and twice this morning by him
Watch out!
@ChShersh@RefinedLurk Yea this code demonstrates an astounding level of misunderstanding of how reading a file works. Copying the entire contents of a file from disk to memory is something you almost never want to do
It's Sunday afternoon, and you still haven't seen any C++
Unacceptable.
I'm fixing that. Here's some C++ code for reading a file. I use this utility class in every hobby project.
