I’m not totally sure if this is accurate but it sounds like you’re wanting to learn front end dev basics?

If so, MDN might be a reasonable place to start. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn_web_development

Business leadership is a club with a specific culture. To be in the club you have you drink the cool aid, so unfortunately most of them have the same mentality

Fair. I just think is prudent to draw a line between natural difficulty and cultural resistance to change.

Moreover, codebase in pure funcional languages is hard to understand and maintain, that’s why they are rarely used in production.

This is incorrect. They are rarely used because procedural languages have momentum. It’s way more likely you’ll get Joe Codemonkey to learn and be productive quickly with functional features added to a procedural language than to learn and be productive quickly with an entirely different paradigm. So that’s what happens.

Does it communicate via usb with the camera? If so it is probably because it uses webusb which is not implemented in Firefox https://caniuse.com/?search=webusb

Makes sense, though unlike zero mission i suspect it would essentially be a graphical update more than a remake. Gameplay-wise dread isn’t that different from super

The one that comes to mind is changing the security group for lambdas from an auto generated one (unspecified in terraform) to a specified one. It had some kind of chicken/egg situation so I ended up having to run two change sets - one to have both security groups set then another to remove the extra. Had to do the same thing in cdk and it just worked. There have been other similar things where everything is fine until you hit some edge case and then you’re just wasting time and money doing acrobatics to work around the quirks (that don’t exist in cdk).

I’m not in the devops group and they’re attached to TF for some reason so I don’t get a say in what we use, but I am the “everything is busted call in anyone that can help” guy so I end up dealing with the problems lol

In my experience with AWS, you run into issues using terraform that CDK just doesn’t have. I’d rather have a different reliable system for each cloud environment than one system that is suboptimal for each environment. Since the providers are different, you don’t really have anything in common besides using HCL as the language anyway.

I keep hearing about how modal editing is faster

I’ve always been skeptical that optimizing text input speed would make a significant difference to overall performance. IMO if you are unhappy with your setup then look around but if you’re not you don’t need to have FOMO about it.

If all the companies that sell a common good at the supermarket shrinkflate, then are you supposed to just not but tortillas? For most, the answer is too sigh and still make burritos or whatever

I’ve only ever given a cursory look at personal repos when they’re volunteered. I’m most likely to just look at a readme and maybe look at a small section just to see what the style looks like and if any characteristics stand out, then maybe use discussion of the project (with standard topics I ask everyone unless I happened to see something interesting) as a discussion starter.

In summary, at least from my perspective, I would recommend just doing whatever interests you and being ready to discuss, if you volunteer a project. I also generally think the impact of presenting a portfolio of personal projects tends to be overestimated.

I’d think it’s just as likely they reinvented a wheel for fun/learning if I’m looking at a personal project… I also don’t judge hobby projects for absence of unit tests.

I have used those topics as discussion points after looking at code someone volunteered as it can be very enlightening, but to hold hobby code to a professional standard is kind of nuts tbh.

See this is what I’m talking about. You’re saying you’ve heard stories. I bet some of them are legitimate criticism, but I’m also positive many of them are from people that couldn’t put on the bare minimum of effort when asking for help from strangers on the internet.

Find myself wondering if the quality of the remaining questions is higher. There definitely has airways been some of the gate keeping that people complain about, but a lot of it has also legitimately been people upset that they get redirected upon asking low quality or duplicate questions.

You can do PGO with GCC, though it takes extra steps of course

I completely agree that business ghouls doing business ghoul things make studios make worse games… doesn’t really affect my point though… studios are not making games based on a “bar” set by the consumers as described in the original post…

They are part of the studios… point was “the bar” is “fun/interesting”. The vast majority of people that purchase games don’t have a bar as defined by the comment I originally replied to.

Studios can make whatever they want. People aren’t putting in orders.

Targeted ads are obviously way more effective and therefore generate more money. But it’s not the only way.

I’m not so sure this has turned out to be all that true

Some rust proponents having this attitude is probably part of the problem.
