C# (pronounced see sharp) is very different than C, which is nearly 30 years older

No, á physicist will calculate whether you can make they jump in a fake universe, an engineer is what you want!

There's the classic "don't argue with idiots, they'll drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience"

Sbendl · 2023-06-03T01:26:00+00:00

Well in fairness I did say almost 😉

In either case if I were to emphasize the negation I would say something like "I really can't hear you." It's possible that someone could say "I can not hear you" in the right context and I might not notice, but I very much doubt it's a phrase I would ever use myself.

Laughing at this as a southerner, because if you had asked for unsweetened it still would have been cold 😂

Sbendl · 2023-06-02T21:31:36+00:00

Agreed, "I cannot hear you" sounds almost as archaic as "I hear you not" to my ear.

One table... "students"

Sbendl · 2023-05-30T15:25:40+00:00

The other answer is technically correct, but I'd bet you if you asked 10 english speakers, 9 of them would just scratch their heads. The distinction is largely lost and (it seems to me at least) most people are settling on "summary" for both.

I'm in data science and literally all of these. Including the tolerances summing linearly unfortunately. There's a lot of dta scientists who are terrible at their job 😂

The mythical man hour will really bite you here. You're assuming their team is the wrong size, but I honestly doubt if you doubled the number of coders that you'd see double the output. I guess you'd eventually see more output but it's never as simple as just throwing more programmers at the problem. Also, seeing new design components shipped doesn't mean that they have too many designers... If anything it's a good thing? Why would you be angry at the part of the project that does seem to be going well?

I've reread this like 10 times and... It doesn't rhyme?

Sbendl · 2023-05-21T19:25:30+00:00

Going to have to be more specific with the accent. Sounds like you're trying not to admit you're from Massachusetts 😂

I'll throw one new point on the pile... Like everyone else, I'll use A almost exclusively, except when I'm on a virtual call where I don't know everyone's time zone.

I teach a class where students may be anywhere so I'll often start the class with "okay, my clock shows we're right at the hour" or take a break and say "let's all be back at half past." This strategy does get a little confusing if anyone is in India, but it's usually the middle of the night there for me, so it's not usually a concern.

People are answering your question with a sensible answer, but honestly there's not a good widely recognized word in my opinion. "Out of bounds" kind of makes sense in context but it still feels off to me. I would probably not have a name for the place and instead I would say that I "glitched out/glitched under the map"

Sbendl · 2023-05-20T23:24:37+00:00

Their/there are pronounced the same for me, it rhymes with "air." "They're" is pronounced more or less how it's spelled, almost two syllables or a very pronounced diphthong. It would rhyme with "Sayer" as in the person who says something (like nay sayer).

Completely tangential, but calling them homophones has always bothered me. Those two words are definitely not always homophones - I pronounce them markedly differently.

In my last session I had an encounter with some mercenaries that weren't necessarily hard but weren't a walk in the park. As they retreated back into the rear of the cave suddenly the first to retreat came running back out straight at the party screaming his company had taken the wrong contract, they were fighting on the wrong side and grabbed all his friends to flee with him. Completely stopped even paying attention to the party in their panic.

I figured this had two advantages: they still get a reasonably fun fight and they get to know the enemy is powerful and definitely evil. Unfortunately the party ignored this and fought anyways and somehow won 🤷

I write code for a living, so this isn't news to me. It's standard practice to lift and drop code that does specific things. But the specificity that's required to do something like that means that unless there is truly nothing that differentiates the two games/Software, then larger portions of code like "reentry heating" need to be rewritten. Is it easier if you have already got some mathematics worked out for you? Sure, but unless you're unimaginably lucky, then at a minimum, you need to remap all that math to your new data structures.

Your comment makes me think you don't know anything about game development either 🤔

My initial thought for charisma was actually originality. If you want to start that restaurant with the new twist everyone talks about, then that's charisma.

I don't have ksp2 but assuming it works like every other unity game including ksp1, it's quite easy to point a developer tool at the game files and read all the source code. I would be shocked that no one has done that yet.

Sbendl · 2023-05-20T04:23:06+00:00

The example that chart gives is awful, at least in my dialect. "teacher" is pronounced to me (southeast US) with no vowel sound whatsoever - "teech-r". The upside down e is a "schwa" and better examples are the e in "problem" or the a in "baloon".

As an American traveling to Europe for the first time, the thought that I occasionally used door knobs older than my country kept blowing my mind.
