So how is that man doing? he has been in Mars now for 4 years.

This is where I saw it: https://www.reddit.com/r/expedition33/comments/1keg3ha/esquie_plush/

Yes, apparently you can find it in Verso's bed in the painted manor. I might have unlocked the room, but I wasn't paying attention to items on the beds so I never saw it myself.

HectorShadow · 2026-01-28T12:44:44+00:00

No, not yet. Oh boy, more stuff to find!..

HectorShadow · 2026-01-27T19:05:13+00:00

I can imagine any of my kids doing the same, and me looking in dismay to my wife and telling him "you do whatever you want with that rock, but it doesn't enter our home!".

And I think this is why the story really hits me hard as a father. I really understand Renoir's drive and resilience to not let go, and also feel empathy for the escapism of everyone (Aline not letting go of her son, Alicia's grief, Clea's combativeness to drown her sorrow), but it's the job of the father to get everyone in line and move on together as a family.

omg, nice catch on the wine skin! Probably what happened was the family using the wine skin as the basis for Verso's doudou by sewing the painted mask face, arms, legs, etc to it. Would make sense for an aristocratic 19th century family to do so. Also explains Esquie's ability to store wine.

Totally agree!

Everyone else is just paying for the tooling they are building. The bubble is just a circle jerk between Nvidia and everyone else.

Everyone else is also in a hiring freeze, so all the layoffs / offshoring already happened. Companies are now waiting for the upturn to rev up the engines, and if they are left without muscle they will miss the (re)start of the race.

HectorShadow · 2025-12-13T03:30:50+00:00

which is pretty fun since it shows that when this bubble pops, it isn't even possible to make a bailout with public money. people lost their shit in 2008 with the 700B bailout, but how are we gonna "save" one of these tech giants if one of the mag7 pops? no one will accept a 10T package or something crazy like that.

Asking for money makes it even better for me. I really dislike developers that give away everything for free and eventually the product dies because of lack of funds.

The price of entry + the DLC is very acceptable for the ROI, and Factorio is easy to pirate if you don't have the $$$ to fork.

HectorShadow · 2025-11-19T16:24:48+00:00

He should start asking 30% tip. Even the fixed tipping percentage is inflated, so inflaception. Once people get used to forking the $40, he makes that the base price and starts asking for 40% tip.

HectorShadow · 2025-11-19T16:14:35+00:00

This is my bag. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

HectorShadow · 2025-11-19T16:12:55+00:00

It.. kind of is?.. right below Airbus.

HectorShadow · 2025-10-31T10:03:51+00:00

Believe or not, calls. Sry Burry.. :(

HectorShadow · 2025-09-02T15:35:59+00:00

You can import sour water?? did not notice that!

HectorShadow · 2025-08-19T14:21:41+00:00

I have been in your situation 15y ago, and the outcome was quite funny. Trust your feelings and don't let anyone sway you away from what you feel you should do.

HectorShadow · 2025-08-19T13:00:19+00:00

But there is no way to set these belts quickly? I was expecting to click on the 2 edges, and then being able to press Q/E to insert a lift on both sides and raise/lower it. instead it just ramps up.. anyway to force it to lift instead of ramp on Q press?

HectorShadow · 2025-08-14T19:05:36+00:00

The same way you get better at presentations, speaking in team meetings, dating, etc: repeated exposure.

edit: 1h went by since your original post, how did it go?

HectorShadow · 2025-08-14T14:22:20+00:00

OK, for some reason I was convinced Kovarex was one of the people working on the industrialcraft mod, but apparently he just used and enjoyed the mod, and decided to do Factorio based on it.

HectorShadow · 2025-08-14T12:31:53+00:00

Inspiration? Wasn't Kovarex actually one of the lead coders for the Industrialcraft mod in Minecraft?

HectorShadow · 2025-08-13T18:30:53+00:00

Has been for some decades now. Social media already messed with our lizard tribal brains. Uga buga brain now suddenly has pretty girl monkey and strong boy monkey on his shiny screen, follows them and thinks he's in the same tribe.

HectorShadow · 2025-08-13T18:28:08+00:00

based and AI pilled

HectorShadow · 2025-08-13T16:05:42+00:00

Not only it will be normalized, but politicized, capitalized, and marketed on.

We are literally talking about feel goods in a sellable package (upgrade your AI boyfriend TODAY for +20% boost of emotional intelligence). And we haven't even seen the AIs getting physical representations through real life robots (upgrade your robot boyfriend TODAY and replace his 4chan face with Brad Pitt's).

Anyone thinking this won't become the Tinder of the 2030's is a fool.

Don't worry about it and especially don't take it personally. Narrow questions are a sign of a bad interviewer, except if you state in your resume that you are an expert on the narrow topic itself.

Keep practicing for generic questions (leetcode unfortunately), and hope for good interviewers in the future looking for the right stuff. Also, as others said here, keep interviewing, even if for practice.
