That was a beautiful read, cheers!

We have a table with literally three columns. One is an id, another a filename and a third a path. Guess which one was picked as the primary key?
Never seen something so stupid in 28 years of computing. Including my studies.
Hahaha! We’ve an “architect” who insists he needs to be the owner on the gitlab. My colleague has been telling him to fuck off for the entire week. It reached the point that fool actually complained to our common boss… The guy is so used to working as a start-up and has no fucking clue about proper procedures. It’s terrifying that he could be in charge of anything, really.
Yeah, I don’t know how to say this nicely, but my experience so far is that HR people are not* exactly the sharpest knives in the kitchen…
Wasn’t Rockstar riding that train first, though? How many games has Ubisoft produced since GTAV released, I wonder…
Holy shit in so glad it’s not just me. All I have ever seen from Java seems to be NullPointerException. (Which makes sense, but still, it’s pretty funny)
That’s interesting! That would explain the “you can talk it over” for me. I was thinking the joke was a giant duck attacking a bread factory, but I like yours better.
“Tester, c’est douter”
Looks like it. It’s something you need to negotiate during your job interview otherwise you’re fucked. Every company I looked at during my last round of job search was going for that bullshit 3 days at work 2 at home thing. Infuriating. Meanwhile, having our team leader be in an office on the other side of France and remotely manage several dozen people in a different site is apparently totally fine and not the same at all.
I thought that was the joke, but then I noticed he’s not on the mat. And then the comment about the size of the mat!
I’m curious what sort of shortcomings you saw? I’m no expert of the genre, but foe me I thought it was just very samey in gameplay, while still bringing some interesting twist to the table with the masks. And as you said, that art direction is incredible. Still, it felt very much like Eden Ring in Italia. Not necessarily a bad thing, I suppose. I’m still tempted to get it.
I’m having a similar fatigue yeah. It really is amazing visually, the attention to details is fucking unreal and the environments are just so diverse… But it’s definitely the same old same old. Main thing that’s improved is the maneuvrability, where you can some really amazing feats of climbing, to the point I thought I was doing a really hard mission when I was in fact just going the wrong way (up a cliff). That’s another thing I’ve been having difficulty with : I do like that they listened and did the whole not showing you where the objective is, but some of their hints are fucking atrocious and I’ve spent way too much time searching the area never to find it. Unfortunate. Anyway, at some point I took a break and haven’t picked it up since. Just kinda forgot about it. Same with Origins. I just arrived in Atlantis, but haven’t felt any irrépressible urge to get back to it, despite my thorough enjoyment of the game.
And then to take it private because being public means Ubisoft is focusing on pleasing shareholders instead of making great games. The whole message is… unexpected, to say the least. Like a bunch of gamers got together to stop Ubisoft killing itself.
Again.
Seeking one final chance again.
Oh, meta-humor. Love it!
Given that bears try to stuff themselves as much as possible before winter, you’d think it was quite an attractive feature!
That’s what I’ve been calling it for years, funnily. Like, I don’t practice meditation in general, but just letting time pass, chilling out, not focusing on anything to get into a state of mind that lets time flow faster, to me, has always been meditation.
I’m kinda laughing reading about this whole “raw dogging” thing. What a ridiculously macho way of talking about it.
I suppose they could call it “sitting to attention”, maybe? Like a palace guard you know? If they wanted to sound more macho without actually sounding like a creep.
Doesn’t sound too weird to me. In my experience, devs always focus too much on positive / correct inputs, as they want things to work. Which is why you need testers that will catch all the weird crazy ways people can break things. Testers shouldn’t even see the code of it can’t handle nominal cases.
What a silly take.
Ignoring the issue, or not even being aware of it, does not mean that people don’t want to fix the problem.
