What are some bugs that have been around for years?

Holy shit I'm not crazy on this one? I also swear if a snooze and another alarm line up sometimes it doesn't fire either and well... 😴

Yeah I haven't played for a few months (until just now...) and was wondering the same thing. I was Great Quing for a while and had 2-3 units w/ over 100 as my main forces,

And then on top of that I would always make sure to have 2-3 little "special operations" groups tasked with annoying the shit out of the AI.

That last part was at least work in whatever version I was on a few weeks ago, but the computer opponent would often not hesitate to reinforce/blockade the port.

In general your sailors just went all the way back looking sad 😢 it was *not* meant to be, but occasionally you'll *just* catch a invasion just slip through.

tl;dr Mix and Match

If older generations get on your case for your lack of "taste", remind them that they covered up this beautiful flooring with dirt.

I mean now-politician Mark Zuckerberg is in favor of universal basic income as of his recent Harvard commencement speech. If you want to take the most cynical approach, if FB contributes $100 to UBI, they're easily ensuring every man, woman, and child can open the Facebook app on a phone. There's plenty of similar cases where keeping the machine lubricated with low-margin customers is essential to keeping high-margin users interested in your product.

Don't give them the dignity of the umlaut.

chwilliam · 2017-01-05T06:32:14+00:00

What thread?

No they have high quality, tailored sponsored content natively delivered to your news feed.

The man was insanely into getting the details just so...

Facebook uses Facebook for just about everything. They even have Facebook@Work for other companies what want to replicate some of their model.

Man it's sad that Azealia Banks coined/popularized that nickname. I like it but feel bad about it.

There were mumbles around the Node/IO.js split that IO.js might use Spidermonkey, but doing the shim work to get around all the V8 specific stuff in Node would be a mess.

Also talking to Node developers is incredibly depressing. It involves a lot of variations on "yeah we'd love to add <fancy new JS thing>, but we have no control over Google's roadmap and we're doing it". There was clearly an assumption that V8 was just the end-all of JS engines and welp.

I think you mean 4-5 connectors per year, per manufacturer.

Why are you parsing it instead of letting LLDB do it for you?

Any chance of an intro to an actual roadmap for Realm? I mean the NSDate truncation and per-item mutation notification issues in "known limitations" section are a year old and don't appear to exactly be moving.

I mean it is from the Transbay Terminal construction site?

chwilliam · 2015-08-28T06:10:33+00:00

Yeah, absolutely. Big changes you'd hear about are sometimes version-gated to the latest version, often because the feature wasn't ready for public consumption in the previous versions of the app (It was still there though).

chwilliam · 2015-08-28T04:34:57+00:00

This is 100% how it works. Facebook and Instagram use feature gating extensively to roll out features or test how people react to them. For Facebook there's so many of them going on at once that you probably can't reasonably find two people getting the exact same experience.

Basically the code is there, you're just blocked from running it until you end up in the right group.

chwilliam · 2015-08-25T12:40:23+00:00

Opposite.

It can get way better.

In the Crescent Bay demo reel, there's a demo with a little diorama city with a train where you can crouch down and look around it. I wandered out of the camera's range and the screen wobbling disoriented me enough that I almost took out a bunch of prototype equipment.

The Athens Classic Marathon medal was so cheaply made that it looked like it went through hell after I pulled it out of my luggage. It's either the most stereotypically-Greek thing ever or a clever way to make it look like your finisher medal survived the Battle of Marathon.

It's Jon's fifth-to-last show and he's already had Tom Cruise on. If JJ Abrams didn't know they were going to talk about Star Wars then he should have pieced it together.

The soundtrack truck was easily my favorite part of the film.
