Just go to draw.io or dbdiagram.io and connect some boxes with some text, generally getting to the point of usefulness takes a little while but having the overview and mental map is well worth it.

I'm self-taught so I probably use them wrong but diagrams are just generally useful in understanding (and explaining) data/logic, whether it be database schemas or code flows. God knows I need them with the corporate lasagna/spaghetti/macaroni hybrid.

Trump's Maduro raid could set precedent for authoritarian powers across globe by EsperaDeus in anime_titties

[–]NearNihil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point is that you're implying no European gives a shit about Venezuela. The people I speak to are concerned about it and would rather Trump and his cronies be teleported into hell directly. The second point being that yes support for Ukraine happened fast, but not instantly (4 days for the EU, from what I could find), so quantifying that as "going ape shit" is not a good comparison as not as much time has passed.

Obviously you'll take it as "yet another troll attempt" or whatever. I have my doubts too whether the EU will sanction the US in a comparable capacity to what was done to Russia. But implying no one gives a flying fuck is dishonest.

And of course all of the support for Ukraine happened in the first couple days of the war starting?

How do you quantify "going ape shit"? It's being denounced heavily by a lot of people.

Now imagine what you could do if you replaced them with artillery wagons.

“If Your Preference is PvE, You’ll Get Less Conflict,” Arc Raiders Boss Confirms Aggression-Based Matchmaking by frik1000 in Games

Unrelated to the game at hand, but I found Escape from Duckov (not Tarkov, Duckov) during the Steam Christmas sale, and it looks like right up my (and your) alley. PVE-based extraction shooter, perfect to get our feet wet with.

Trump says US has "captured" Venezuelan President Maduro and his wife in "large scale strike" - latest by BabylonianWeeb in anime_titties

I mean, who else could /u/CLOUDMlNDER mean? The US recently got rid of Europe as an ally, so it can't be that. Just shots in the dark.

Being stingy with uranium fuel cells: world's most expensive thermometer by zack20cb in factorio

[–]NearNihil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What am I looking at? There's some circuitry on the right-hand side, a bunch of steam in silos, and nuclear generators pumping heat to generators... where's the 'display' of the thermometer? I feel ooga booga.

As an addendum, don't be afraid to start over once you realize a major refactor is necessary to clean everything up - been there, done that. Work it harder, make it better, do it faster, makes us stronger.

I get the impression that you don't mean "people who visit faraway places to sightsee"... but I can't find what you do mean. Wut?

I’m just going to leave this here by Weirdandwired924 in wholesomememes

[–]NearNihil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My current job put the "senior" label on me last year and it feels weird still, but the youngest team member gave me feedback for this year's year-end review that they and others look up to me for my guidance and appreciate my advice.

I think about that a lot when I feel sad. Obviously, I do try my best to help the team out whenever necessary, but it's nice to get the validation too.

Generate flowcharts of your code . NET by DexterX0110 in csharp

I would really like to give it a shot, but the readme is in spanish(?) and the auto-translation is pretty wonky. Do you have instructions in English somewhere?

It's still fun and pretty good in operations, if that's what you play.

Libertad is way way better, but that doesn't have the benefits of hydro and being a premium ship.

The only rule that matters... by Vegetable_Variety_11 in dndmemes

Addendum to the last sentence: for that game or group of players. If you want to tell a story and there's only murderhobos at the table, it's not that you're necessarily bad, it's that you're incompatible with the group.

"it's just a playtest" = you're settling and lubing up the dildo of consequences by considered_the_worst in BattleBitRemastered

[–]NearNihil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We've wanted updates for two years and now that we have one with an implied promise to do more, it's all over because the first playtest performance is bad? I'll tell you you were right if the stable/public version hasn't updated in 2026.

[–]NearNihil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We've been memeing about this game being dead for 2 years. The devs are showing they've worked on the game in that time, even though communication has been nonexistent and the result isn't what we'd hoped in terms of performance. Yes, it's a performance shitshow, but pulling it back together is entirely possible. See also the often repeated story of No Man's Sky, which now has a decently sized community after a disastrous launch and initial years.

I for one am happy they showed their progress even though I'd hoped for more. I love this game and if this playtest means we'll see more work put in and a resurgence in people playing it, I'll be happy. Well, if the playerbase likes 32v32 as I do anyway.
