I work on software for finding things and summarizing stuff. We were one of those Apache 2 -> other relicenses a while back.
I can't really talk about specifics. But we all have a working imagination though. I think about it a lot. But I still do the job. There are good folks doing good things with it.
I've been listening to the Andy Serkis reading it lately. First experience since I was a kid. It's surprisingly nuanced for something so old and so baked into the popular culture. It's kind of amazing how flattened my memory of it from childhood is.
Dune as well. And Snowcrash too
We can be heretics together. But you're wrong. It was the best of the three because it commented on the universe.
I wanted to love TFA. So much promise wasted by repetition. They had an es-storm trooper! A super emotionally damaged Vader worshipping anger Jedi. The wiggly light saber. I should have loved it. The characters were so cool. But they didn't do anything new. Felt very design by committee.
In TLJ the characters did new things. It didn't all feel right to me. But it was new. I loved Luke's story. War stories should leave their heros damaged. I loved the worthless dirtfarmer parents. Everyone can't have special parents. Even Poe's stupid story with pink hair general was a commentary on how ruthless rebels have to be. People die. You can't waste resources. There was a lot wrong about TLJ but it tried.
And ROS had one good line. That's it.
The actors deserved so much better. They worked hard. They loved star wars. They wanted to make something good.
Tom's got every right to be proud for the British plug. It's super over engineered and a love it.
I wonder if LA is a better comparison to Sydney. Sydney is much too hot to make me think of SF despite bay and nice bridges. On the other hand, I took the ferry a bunch when I lived there. The bay matters.
But beaches! Sydney has famous beaches. LA has famous beaches. SF has beaches too but they don't really come to mind when I think of the bay area.
I dunno. Hard to compare.
I'm a pretty good engineer. Not the best I've ever met by a long shot, but I'm good. But I'm very outgoing for an engineer.
Ironically, that'd describe both my parents too.
It was a neat read! I'll bet there's stuff in there my team could steal. We try our best to be distributed and that comes with a lot of async.
I had this one weekend when I was in tenth grade where I did nothing but write code on a fun project. Then I decided I didn't like writing code. I don't know why. Kids are weird.
I decided then I couldn't make it my job. I managed not to program for three years. It turns out I'm bad at everything else. Miserable.
That was 22 years ago. That's still all I'm good at.
Pre-merge code review should stop that kind of thing. I honestly haven't seen anything like this in years.
Chrono Trigger. The Magus Fight. The music.
FF6. Magitech Factory. Also music.
Metal Gear Solid. Psycho Mantis. Late at night. Tired.
Eternal Sonata. Last Fight. Intro line.
Hades. Final boss. Extreme measures 4.
NES Tetris. Crashing.
I heard somewhere that's what they were trying to say when they made at first. The episode just didn't work. DS9 redeemed them.
We knew spooks were all up in the phone network. They'd show up and ask installers to run them some cables and configure ports in a certain way. I was friends with folks who were friends with the installers.
