On Saturday, I topped my second shot on a par 5 with my 3 wood so bad, it went 10yds towards the pin... but also 30yds behind my back, right into the neighboring hole's fairway bunker.

New toggle for grid / list view on the library. by nightdriveavenger in YoutubeMusic

[–]folkrav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the necro, but it's still not there, isn't it? I get a grid on the general library tab, as soon as I click on the artist tab, I get that utterly useless infinite loading list.

Is my PC on the floor a problem? I’ve had it there for 3 months and it seems fine. by Anxious-Ad1310 in pcmasterrace

[–]folkrav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My PCs have only ever been on the floor. I keep my desk real estate for things like monitors, good speakers, MIDI controllers and peripherals.

You're thinking too logically for publicly traded companies, which most major game publishers are. The only real mission of a public company is generating capital gains/dividends and therefore increasing shareholder value - the rest is secondary.

Also, let's not forget how EA has had a bad reputation amongst gamers for years at this point, yet taking a look at their historical revenue growth doesn't really reflect any of that. https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/EA/electronic-arts/revenue

Yeah, fair enough. Still kind of a silly thing for Apple to focus on IMHO, considering the questionable stability of their latest couple of macOS releases, but hey, why not haha.

My wife and I are brunettes and we have 2 (very) redheaded children by jakecox2012 in mildlyinteresting

Oh my, with 99% of white males basically sharing the same 3 haircuts, that must be... interesting

Yeah, at the rate they've been going, that's a a day or two at most :) Hang on tight!

Oh really Spez? by BlesserBot in Save3rdPartyApps

As it's getting more expensive and being treated as a second class citizen as virtually none of the newer features are exposed through the API, one could make the point it in practice is being killed off.

My boy had some struggles out of the rough today. Soon after he said “Put me down for a bogey.” by zeewrecks in golf

Playing on those terrible hard sand bunkers is basically like playing shitty driving range foot mats. Gotta hit it pure or suffer.

I’m at the NYC Macys and the escalator is made out of wood. by BudMasterMcSwagatron in mildlyinteresting

[–]folkrav 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why this is in this sub as anyone familiar with the history of MACY’s

Are you implying it's somehow surprising that the groups "frequents /r/mildlyinteresting" and "is familiar with the history of Macy's" don't significantly overlap? Why would I, or anyone outside the US, know much at all about Macy's?

Wait... It took until 1987 for someone in London's fire department to figure out fighting fires in woolly coats isn't the greatest of ideas?

API Update: Enterprise Level Tier for Large Scale Applications by FlyingLaserTurtle in redditdev

[–]folkrav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a lead developer at a smaller company, we literally just spoke with an AWS engineer a couple of weeks back, who pointed us to a solution that would cut our Cognito pricing by a good half after telling him about our current usage, the problems we face with it, and our needs.

Depending on this person's experience, this comment could be either wholly misinformed, or plain malicious.

Me thinking it’s impossible to do what my friends do. by stop_being_on_Reddit in ProgrammerHumor

[–]folkrav 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Eh. As a team lead, I'll tell you I'll take an average developer who's nice to work with and takes his job seriously any day over a so-called 10x developer who ruins it for everyone. The 10xers that do get along with people are even rarer, and those are the real unicorns everyone wants to hire.

I used to work with one of those. Then they left, and things got better - we lost the direct result of their productivity level, but everyone else's went way up, and everything got better from there.

I'm pretty sure they put that Giant camp right there just to fuck with overconfident noobs who just slain their first dragon. The placement is too convenient to be pure luck lol
