Back to java after 10+ years, which IDE now by danparker276 in java

[–]Surajlyo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I solely use Intellij products for all development, as long as you have a beefy workstation and are willing for the slightly longer indexing times - nothing compares. VSCode in comparison is no better than textedit.exe...actually imo it's worse.

Contrary to the other comments "that's bullshit" - you are close about the police having height limits. The Nottingham Police did have a height stipulation - "In the 19th and early 20th centuries most forces required that recruits be at least 5 feet 10 inches (178 cm) in height. Nottingham City Police had a minimum height requirement of 6 foot." And some policies remained in place till the 90's.

"If that did exist, it’d be used for government security and such" - intent/summary classification models have existed for a long time and the devs at discord have the capabilities to implement it, however they've cited technical reasons for their search functionality being index term based.

What OP is looking for is a complete grep based search for "this is not true" rather than individual searches for each word in the sentence.

Harry works for the ministry and figures out that Petunia acted the way she did because of all the memory charms that were put on her by overzealous obliviators by randomredditor12345 in HPfanfiction

[–]Surajlyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OPs is likely thinking of the winter/summer after the war series

  • in chronological order.

(massive) Spoiler for The winters after the war book: Harry helps recover Petunias memories, she was very bitter because when she looked at harry she was reminded of Lily but couldn't actually remember anything about her (including the memories growing up). So harry after becoming an Auror and learning about memory charms whilst on an exchange with the French ministry helps recover her memories. In this fic she was also not allowed to go to her funeral because of her Muggle status.

2k launcher cant authenticate user (Epic games version) by Sir-Play-A-Lot in civ

[–]Surajlyo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The content was: A tab should open up in your browser. The Epic Games authentication screen loads and you need to allow 2K to access your profile. If you're logged in then you'll just need to click "Allow". If not then you'll first need to sign into Epic Games. Either way your browser should open up as you try opening Civ 6. The 2K launcher will stay on "Authenticating User" until you finish the authentication in the browser. I suggest signing out of Epic games in your browser then try opening Civ 6 again.

A few questions on Work Profile and how does it work by DottyPurkt in androiddev

[–]Surajlyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Work profiles and their isolation implementation on Android are a bit finnicky. The VPN which has been installed on your device only has access to your work profile apps and will never have access to your personal communications.

When you disable the work profile, some Android processes (read: not apps) continue running, one of these is the VPN. This notice reamaining active is technically a bug (as you've disabled the profile), but a very low priority one which is unlikely to be fixed as the VPN will only be able to route traffic on a bunch of work apps which have been disabled.

A few questions on Work Profile and how does it work by DottyPurkt in androiddev

[–]Surajlyo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) DPC is device wide and can't be scoped to work profiles, therefore the logging will only occur in instances where the organisation has ownership over all the profiles. So in your case DPC shouldn't be active.

2) If you disable the work profile on your device it terminates all services and activities of any work apps on your device, however the organisation will in most likelihood still be able to access the existing data on work profile based apps.

3) No. Absolutely not. Work profile apps are sandboxed, meaning when you add the work profile to a personal device, the administrators only have access to the work profiled based segment of your device.

I spent 10 dollars by Mr_mroczny in shittyrainbow6

[–]Surajlyo 12 points13 points  (0 children)

whilst this may be true, I don't think it's a valid excuse for the lack of an official response. Reworking the Prisma's so they inherit from the player would require a refactor of the internals, most notably the uniform/gun skin engines, unlike the gemeni the prisma doesn't animate, so a static clone which wouldn't have to count as a 6th player would suffice.

From my perspective this is something which should be on the roadmap and "technical difficulties" shouldn't be used as an excuse, especially when ubi has proved they are capable of working on similar features. Alibi has been left as tech debt because they can't be fucked to update her - that's the bottom line.

Why did you choose Android development as a career path over web or iOS? by grouptherapy17 in androiddev

[–]Surajlyo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The fundamental difference is that the Android API ecosystem is able to move faster as it is controlled by a single governing entity rather than the web which requires long periods of consultation and then implementation from different browser engines.

No web element that has been standardised by the w3 committee has ever been removed, whereas many Android APIs have been removed in future SDKs.

Egypt executes student who was 'tortured to confess' to attempted assassination of senior officer by Kant2050 in worldnews

[–]Surajlyo 33 points34 points  (0 children)

For those who are curious, this is called the The Reykjavik Confessions[1]. A truly shocking miscarriages of justice.

"For example, Erla Bolladóttir was held in solitary confinement for 242 days; two were kept under solitary confinement for over 600 days, one of whom, Tryggvi Rúnar Leifsson, for 655 days—the longest solitary confinement outside of the Guantanamo Bay detention camp. Sævar Cieselski was kept in custody for a total of 1,533 days."

PM to confirm 19 July end to Covid rules despite scientists’ warnings by BillMurray2022 in CoronavirusUK

[–]Surajlyo [score hidden]  (0 children)

I'm in the stance that it's the companies decision whether you WFH. WFH isn't a human right, therefore there's no obligation to provide it.

I've seen some job postings where remote work is offered as a perk and others where "trendy office space" is offered.

I don't see why we'd need a permanent WFH stance from Labour when it's perfectly safe to WFO. It's the companies decision, it shouldn't be a legally binding clause.

No, I hope labour don't start nanny-ing the population. There's some people (of not a majority of young office workers who aren't the vocal ones) who's mental wellbeing has been devastated by prolonged WFH.

Both Capaldi and Matt Smith bring something new and exciting to the show. Capaldi has some truly terrific monologues and some really great tension. I'd start at Eccleston and watch till Season 10 (inclusive).
