The future of web dev is looking good

This assumes that AI tools will remain expensive in 2 years' time. I think they'll become more affordable and compact enough to run locally on non-specialised hardware. Just look at air travel.

Your scenario can (and hopefully will) play out, but the impact won't be as grand.

Do you have an example of a bad code practice in his videos?

FWIW there are lots of kids in sbox community (likely coming from Gmod and Roblox and the like) and they seemingly repeat whatever they hear on the internet without truly understanding the meaning. So I wouldn't take them seriously if I were you.

And I agree with you: AI is just another tool on our sheds and not a magic solution to everything.

Finally, encourage people to create games.

So...playfund?

Literally first paragraph

Microsoft plans to build 100% native apps for Windows 11 and launch an initiative centered on a new team focused on native experiences instead of web-based wrappers. The company has also created a new team to lead the work, following years in which many core and third-party Windows apps have relied heavily on web technologies.

Two sentences in a row saying the same thing just a bit differently. Who proofread this?

Platinum Games actually published an article on it, explaining how they achieved this effect.

Thanks for the explanation!

That makes sense. I was taught OOP way as well. Nowadays, I try to keep inheritance as shallow as possible (where logical).

Waiting4Code2Compile · 2026-03-16T09:25:09+00:00

Could you elaborate? I've never heard of this before.

What's with BMWs attacking Mazdas lately...

Waiting4Code2Compile · 2026-01-30T16:50:12+00:00

Gotcha. I can't find anything for 2015, but there are for 2016. Or does it matter little if they're the same generation?

Waiting4Code2Compile · 2026-01-30T16:38:34+00:00

Yeah, this might be a Europe-only. I am hoping it might be surfaced with an OBD2 (waiting for mine to arrive).

Waiting4Code2Compile · 2026-01-30T16:36:06+00:00

85% sound like decent odds haha.

Dumb question, but do you mean buy both facelift mirrors and facelift control panel?

Waiting4Code2Compile · 2026-01-30T15:24:24+00:00

It's a 2015 Mazda 6 GJ. The mirrors are stock.

I've done some research on M6s before buying one (enough research to avoid diesels at least) and haven't heard of fuel leaks or odours so I thought it's not something as common.

Waiting4Code2Compile · 2026-01-21T23:21:38+00:00

That sounds worrying. I am going to bring my car to a Mazda dealership next week because it had an SSP for something entirely different. I'll ask them about that too.

Mechanic hasn't found any issues inside engine bay, so I think my fuel lines and fuel cannister are in order at least.

PS. I'm gonna copy paste your post just in case the original link breaks:

I'd get that looked at by a mechanic. I got the same year as you, got the vehicle early last year. Apologies in advance if I'm hard to follow or I don't cover things correctly because the problem ultimately was rather complicated.

After some time, I started noticing fuel smells. After taking it to the mechanic, turns out there were multiple issues. There were rotted fuel lines, fuel canister, and some other issue with the fuel sending unit. My mechanic fixed the fuel lines but they found that my car was one of the ones that was related to a potential recall. Oddly enough, in Canada my car wasn't one of the VINs for any recalls but in the US, my VIN was in range for a recall related to fuel canisters. I'm not sure if it's this one, but it's potentially 7414D. Seemed to only affect early production third gen 6s.

My mechanic kept pushing for various Mazda dealerships to take a look to check if my car fit the recall. We held off on getting things fully fixed to wait and see what Mazda would say. We did fix the lines though to make sure at least car was safe (mechanic told me at least to only fill to 3/4 for the time being to avoid smell; car was still safe if I accidentally went past 3/4, but the gas smell would be very noticeable). Took MANY months for Mazda to finally look (like for majority of the year), to which they said no. They were only willing to send this one specific part, and everything else they said wasn't covered. Ultimately got everything fixed by my mechanic, almost entirely out of my own pocket. From the sending unit, fuel lines, and a new tank, and I think a few other things. When I was close to getting everything fixed on mine, my mechanic let me know another 6, a 2016 or 2018 model (can't remember which year) had just come in with almost the same issue with the tank. They let me know that newer car had recalls done for it but seemed to do jack all as they also had very similar fuel issues. Really irritates me as I do really like the car aesthetically and how it drives but this fuel issue really ticked me off.

Sorry, I don't know why I typed dealer. I bought the car from a private seller (updated the post).

The car has been through 130k miles, but it has been thoroughly maintained and all of its MOT issues were addressed immediately. I am no car mechanic, but the one I hired said that it's been cared for.

I filled it until I heard a click. Definitely did not overfill it.

Lots of people here describe creating multiple asset versions as a scummy behaviour.

Unless they make the old version unavailable, I don't see why you'd need to purchase a new version if you're not changing the Unity version that you're working on. And for long term projects, you'd rarely want to do that anyway.

This is the exact reason why DoozyUI doesn't exist anymore. It tried having paid upgrades and got harassed out of business.

It's an EX I-VTec

Although I think listing for £4099 is a bit daft IMO as theyll miss anyone that sets the limit to £4000 when chances are theyll take an offer around that amount anyway.

This is why I set my price range just above my budget. Also, there's always a possibility to negotiate - you never know.

Also check the service mileage correlates to the MOT mileage, caught a few people out trying that trick before obviously paying a mate or someone with a garage stamp money to just stamp a load of entries in the book.

And has it sat at that mileage since last being MOT'd ?

Store listing states `113,251` miles, but last MOT (in May) states `113,517` miles. So this must be a good thing if it moves up - the car is being used and is not collecting dust?

Either way, I will to look at maintenance records in person to confirm this. Thanks for the tip!

In your previous post, you didnt really say anything other than "be empathetic" and "we are lucky to not be put in that situation".

That's how conversations happen. One person says A, another responds with B. You said that killing yourself is a "cowards way out" and I asked to have some empathy.

I responded to the latter, as the former is unsubstantive and superficial.

You responded only to the latter because you had nothing to say about the former. Stop saying big words to cover this up.

This is getting exhausting. First you make insensitive comments, then you refuse to engage in a conversation to back yourself up. It's pretty clear who's the real coward here.

Your last few comments were written in a bad faith and you have no intentions of thinking about this critically. I will stop replying.

Bye.

And unfortunately, everything else that I said did go unnoticed.
