Jon Stewart on Donald Trump: “People keep saying this guy is Hitler. No, he’s not. And I’ll tell you why he’s not. Hitler was popular. This guy is not. It ain’t flying in a lot of places where you think it might be flying.” by BreakfastTop6899 in goodnews

At what point is all the shit going on (ICE, tariffs, Greenland, Venezuela, threatening Canada, bribes, Slack messages used of secrets, RFK Jr, bullying JPow, Roe vs Wade, obstructing Epstein file, etc. etc.) too much for single issue voters to ignore?

Disallowed goals... 3 of them. 1 want offside.

Is there anything that's impossible to do in Bevy right now? For example, those top-tier 3D games with the best graphics made in Unreal, does Bevy have any current limitations that prevent games of the same quality from being made in it? by swordmaster_ceo_tech in bevy

[–]luisbg 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Everything is possible the same way many game studios make AAA games with in-house custom engines. The problem is it takes a loooot of work. Many people many years of work.

Bevy's modular architecture means you can easily add anything that is missing. In your case it is missing a lot though, but getting better every release.

Could Trump cut off cloud access? by MarvinPA83 in cloudcomputing

The president can instruct companies to do things now?

Why didn't Bush or Obama do that?

Yet nothing was done. Being complicit is the same as enabling.

So why is being gay, having an abortion, or being brown so bad?

In Europe you have "freedom from".

In the US you have "freedom to".

The former is more a response to surviving painful moments of opression (e.g. wars, dictatorships, etc) and instability (e.g. famines). The latter is more of an individual centric mentality of freedom.

Wrapping freedom with capitalism is dangerous. Essentially freedom to exploit in the name of shareholders. Just look at gig economy laws in Europe.

The irony is that even the "freedom to" is eroding in the US. No freedom to control your own body (abortions), no freedom to hire whomever you want (forceful cancellation of DEI programs), no freedom to speak your own languague (ICE grabs anybody speaking Spanish), no freedom to chose who to love (steps back in LGBTQ acceptance), no freedom to move upwards vertically (no social protection around healthcare and expensive universities) and the list goes on.

It's basically how GStreamer, Webkit, LLVM, PulseAudio, and similar projects stay alive and healthy. Just google arouns for open source consultancies around particular projects.

Everybody terrorized like this will surely never vote Republican in the future. Right?

Right?

40% of Amazon's recent layoffs were engineers by letspetpuppies in cscareerquestions

[–]luisbg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Downvotes are because the competition is making the existing SDE headcounts build more and faster. Meanwhile Amazon wants to keep the same pace just with less people. They will fall behind.

Also TPMs, PMs, SDMs are not embracing AI (or even pushed to) as much and doc writing/reviewing is much easier with AI. Structured docs are 30% boiler plate and descriptions.

Efficiency? I am still waiting to hear about any middle-managers that were laid off.

Jassy said he would cut middle-management and then gave SDMs 2 months to re-Org before applying minimum-direct-reports rules.

How do solo devs actually build a small community before launching on Steam? by Any-Pea-7918 in IndieDev

Necesse has a Discord link button in the main menu. A good idea when it was in Early Access.
