Sorry, my original comment is a bit accusatory. I did not mean to say you (specifically) are the problem. I intended to say that more level-headed Christians are not what you see portrayed in media because it’s the absolute psychos that are in positions of power, so that’s what you (general) see in the media.

Persecution complex

I would never claim to be persecuted, but you specifically seem to paint with a broad brush.

Where are the outraged Christians trying to take their religion back?

There is nothing to “take back.” True followers of Christ see through these extremists in government as easily as they see through a some snake-worshipping Christian cult. Christians have always known there will be many that will pervert the truth, so they are not surprised. The problem is people like you just assume they are sitting around endorsing this behavior the media makes it seem all Chritians endorse this behavior, but the challenge is the same as always: true Christians do not have the wealth and power to control political/religious messaging around the world. It kind of goes against some key points in their theology.

I guess your battery isn’t overheating?

This is such a high level description that it is a meaningless comparison. The fact that Fallout doesn’t take itself nearly as seriously as Westworld is already a huge difference. Sometimes the implementation is what is valuable, not the idea.

You’re ironically perpetuating a myth that cast iron needs special care. You can clean cast iron with soap just like anything else. You just have to make sure it isn’t wet for extended periods of time

FYI, leetcode is not a “learn to code” website it is a “practice problems that will be asked at tech interviews” site. A lot of these problems are inspired by (or maybe are even literally from) interviews at “top companies” like Google, Facebook, etc. They are almost completely algorithmic or data structure problems, i.e. “unrelated to your actual work” (well, most of your actual work for most people).

Wouldn’t you argue that putting hard restrictions would have the benefit of shrinkjng your recruitment team? To be clear, I’m coming from an extremely anecdotal point of view, but to me it seems like tech is full of imposters jumping from job to job, playing up their experience. Recruiters cannot spot these people, because they know all the jargon despite having none of the skills. This is why these technical interviews exist, but now those are even being gamed by people by studying leetcode. I’d be really curious what a high quality tech recruiter does vs the average.

We do require a BS in computer science

The only scenarios where I’d think I wouldn’t require one are

1. I want cheaper labor
2. I am really desperate to fill a position
3. The skills I need in a candidate are incredibly niche, thus I want to widen the applicant pool.

#1 and #2 are indicative of other problems in your company. I get that you can be a good dev without a degree, but from an employer perspective, it seems like an easy way to save time and money on hiring. I am convinced that a lot of money is wasted on recruiters who throw everyone under the sun into the hiring process just so they can justify their existence.

The tech layoffs are not related to industry replacing those jobs with AI. Tech overhired and now they are adjusting. Simple as that.

This would be cool if this ended up being “Alien Isolation but with dinosaurs,” but I am not quite sure that’s the direction they are taking based on the trailer alone.

open-world action game

It’s amazing that devs are still crapping out games in this genre.

Build your own locally hosted cloud!

This is the hard part to sell people. I feel like for self-hosting to become popular, there would need to be a “plug ‘n’ play” device that essentially has everything you need to set up a small server on your home network. If you could set up a home server as easily as you can set up a Google Home device, that would be amazing.

Does it execute both, or does it execute the branch that is more likely to be valid? Branch prediction seems like it’d be way more performant than executing both branches until the result of the branch condition is available. If you think about it, what you’re proposing will cause the CPU to always execute instructions that are not meant to be executed when confronted with a branch whereas branch prediction will only execute these “useless” instructions in the unlikely scenario where the prediction is incorrect.

According to a friend of mine that is an employee, he shows up every now and then to throw a fit and go on firing-sprees.
