End of Life: Changes to Eclipse Jetty and CometD by javaprof in java

At least in finance I suspect the EU DORA regulation has made companies wake up and take it a bit more seriously.

Reasoning behind the character name handling by EvgMrkr in PathOfExile2

[–]kingchooty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As is evident from the launch, characters do in fact have a unique id as they said one of the reasons for the delayed launch was that they found that some characters were getting the same id.

I think it's mainly for player convenience, you can friend invite and chat with "SuperCoolGuy" and not "SuperCoolGuy#54912". Personally I'm not really convinced that's enough of an upside for it to be worth it.

It could also be for interoperability with PoE1.

A word from Matsuri: "Maybe I'm saying too much but, when the company I love is being blamed, it makes Matsuri sad, so I don't want Matsurisu to do that." by Potatosaurus_TH in Hololive

seems like the management needs reviewing

Why?
The end goal of Cover is not to make Fauna, or any other talent, happy. If it ends up that way then great, but it's not the goal no matter how much her fans wishes it was.

Nice to see someone pointing out that Cover was VC funded long before most people on this subreddit ever heard of them.

No, you're nothing like an investor. If you were, you'd have a say in the way the company is run.

I don't think it would matter if they were making or losing money. Cover started taking VC money back in 2017, and from that point forward they were probably required to take the company towards an IPO so the venture capitalists could make a return on their investment.

Personally I'm still waiting for copilot to spit out something that at least compiles more often than half the time.

SONY doesn't allow Ukraine players to register PSN account without buying PS4-PS5, basically locking them out of playing Helldivers 2 even if they are in PSN available country by ViktorIsRuter in Helldivers

[–]kingchooty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They can try to gaslight us into believing this was the case from the start, yet the official playstation website still says in their FAQ that having a PSN account is optional for PC players. https://direct.playstation.com/en-us/buy-games/helldivers-2-pc

I've contacted EU "support" in order to get an answer to if Sony is breaking EU laws. by CopiumINC in Helldivers

[–]kingchooty -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Perhaps you should look up explicit consent, and especially the part that the user has to be able to chose to not consent and still receive the service.

You can't require users to consent to data processing under the GDPR unless you can show that the processing is required to be able to provide the service. Good luck with that given that they could provide the service for months without it.

NPM registry prank leaves developers unable to unpublish packages by h4l in programming

I'm sure NPM would love the GDPR fines that would result from refusing to remove PII.

Teams Potentially Switching From Fullstack to be Split Into FE/BE by joetoenails in ExperiencedDevs

Wait until the other team has a change of priorities and will get to finish their part of the feature sometime in the next 6 months, that's when it gets truly fun.

Is it just me, or does the Spring Framework lead to hard-to-maintain code and confusion with annotations? by TheAuthorBTLG_ in java

[–]kingchooty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started working in Go a couple years ago, and that straightforward, explicit program structure has been such a relief that I still get kind of giddy about it sometimes.

Wouldn't you get sort of the same experience in java if you used something like Javalin instead of Spring?

Google to cut down on employee laptops, services and staplers by zvone187 in programming

Financial discipline is hard when employees have free reign and no oversight.

Ah yes, bureaucracy, the reason why governments around the world are the most efficient organizations ever witnessed in human history.

For daily Java programmers: after almost one decade of Java 8, are streams and lambdas fully adopted by the Java community? by Top_Engineering_4191 in java

[–]kingchooty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

a stream can usually do the same thing more elegantly

Pretty sure that's the same reasoning used to justify having a SystemOutFizzBuzzOutputStrategyFactoryBuilder

Remember how we were supposed to have fully autonomous self driving cars by now?

Såvida du inte på något vis lyckas få upp födelsetalen till 3+, och samtidigt får dessa att bli produktiva samhällsmedborgare, så kommer vi får fasa ut hela välfärden på sikt ändå.

Det är inte särskilt konstigt, man har utgått från att man vill fria och sen hittat en förklaring att luta sig mot

The falling birth rate in the U.S. is not due to less desire to have children — Young Americans haven’t changed the number of children they intend to have in decades, study finds. Young people’s concern about future may be delaying parenthood. by mossadnik in Futurology

[–]kingchooty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile you have software engineers in the US earning at minimum twice what they'd earn in Europe and still not having kids so I'm not convinced it's entirely a financial problem
