1. Approach a business.
2. Request the service or product they provide for free.
3. Suggest that instead of paying, you’ll advertise the fact that you “bought” from them.
4. Argue that your brand is so awesome that associating with it is valuable enough to substitute for the payment.

Isn’t this basically what influencers do?

Can’t I just use one Raspberry Pi but run Java on it?

Neovim has something better - there is a plugin that installs the servers for you - https://github.com/mason-org/mason.nvim - and then you can just use the servers that plugin has installed (which should be more trustworthy because you just need to trust the plugin and not some random executable)

There is also https://github.com/mason-org/mason-lspconfig.nvim which bridges the two and automatically enables servers that were installed via Mason.

The LSP support itself is builtin in Neovim (not in Vim though, AFAIK), but each language server needs to be configured and activated. There is a plugin with all(ish) configurations - https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig - and activation is done with a vim.lsp.enable("server-name") command, which you just put in your config and the Neovim will start the LSP when you open a relevant file.

This is not about mistakes in the Git-managed code. This is about mistakes in the Git commands themselves. Anything that involves merging/rebasing/conflict resolution can potentially be botched. These mistakes are usually fixable, but:

1. Fixing it requires some Git proficiency behind the level of the common Git user.
2. If you don’t catch it in time, and only find the mistake when it’s deep in your layers of Git history - well, good luck.

You can probably get away with it if you write it in a confusing enough fashion; but you need to make it really confusing - to the point even CPU architecture experts could miss it unless they pay very close attention; and remember that the claims - which are the only part of the patent that has any legal meaning - may be limited by law to a single sentence each, but there is no limit on how cumbersome each sentence is; additionally, semicolons are not sentence terminators; this means that this entire comment I just wrote is technically a only one sentence.

So it turns out artificial intelligence can beat natural stupidity after all?

I asked why they had this terrible process and they said it was because people were caught cheating with AI.

How does conducting many interviews help against candidates cheating with AI?

Roomscale VR when?

Nah… it’s okay. She won’t be out of touch. Nintendo is going to release these games for the Switch 2 for $80.

It started waaay before Trump was even born.

I’ll name my language with zero letters. Inroducing - .

Plot twist - what Collective Shout wanted all along was to get these specific games for free (and more importantly - without official transactions to prove they’ve bought them)

I also didn’t mind the two extra buttons, and was a little sad when they went away, because they were largely replaced by the joystick buttons, which I think are hard to use properly.

Weren’t the black and white buttons replaced by triggers? The joystick buttons already existed in the first XBox.

The original PS1 controller didn’t have joysticks, and when it did, the position sucked for larger hands. I have always preferred the XBox layout.

Right. I meant the second PS1 controller, not the original one. The design changed over the years, but the general specs stayed as the baseline of controllers.

The XBox layout with its six face buttons did not stick, and the XBox 360 conformed with Sony’s design of four face buttons and two triggers. Which makes more sense for shooters (since you have more buttons while keeping your thumb on the right thumbstick)

The entire industry has agreed on a de-facto standard for controllers, which is pretty much the PS1 controller:

• Two clickable thumbsticks
• Four face buttons
• D-pad
• Four triggers
• Two menu buttons
• The only thing the PS1 didn’t have (but games can’t use it, so maybe it doesn’t count?) - a button for showing the platform’s menu

You can add things on top of that (trackpads, gyros, making some of these digital buttons analog), but if you don’t have that - your controller won’t work for games that expect these inputs to be available.

If I had to put a date on when this became the established standard, I’d say 2005 or 2006 - the years when the XBox 360 and the PS3 were released, since both consoles had these capabilities (Nintendo kept doing its own thing, and only supported this standard starting with the Wii U). So when the Steam controller was released in 2015 - this standard was already established, controllers for PC made sure to support it - and even PC games stuck to it.

This is why I think the Steam Controller failed - you had to map it. You couldn’t use it like you would a standard controller even if the game was made for standard controllers.

You can’t get a good view of the bombing of Tel Aviv all the way from Iran.
