A big one I’ve been seeing a lot lately is advertising annual subscriptions as monthly rates. It isn’t $12/month subscription if I have to pay $120 in a lump sum up front. The actual monthly rate is often basically double what they’re advertising.

Taken a look at the job market lately? Unless you’re like the top 1% (which most people aren’t), it’s extremely bleak.

To build? Sure.

To run? Absolutely not.

Feels like a distinction without a difference. What is any intelligence but a sum of its knowledge?

Um, how exactly does that even tangentially relate to my point?

Yeah, as a guitarist this is hideously non-standard. Definition of change for the sake of change.

There's no such thing as "Tab format". Tabs are just ascii text.

Not really. The lilypond format is extremely...complicated and obscure (and that's my polite take on it). Even simple stuff is quite complex. Very very far from Markdown's virtually WYSIWYG.

It's not hypothetical. Xbox's margin last year was 3%.

What monopoly did they gift? IdTech hasn't been licensed to external companies in over 15 years, and several major versions ago.

The last non-Id release on IdTech was Brink in 2011.

Why not?

If you input $1000 into process A which returns $20, and inputing $1000 into process B returns $30, you'd be insane to invest in process A and not process B, right?

They are unprofitable though. Profit margins of the entire Xbox division are less than just sticking the money in the bond market.

We would be a hell of a lot better off with career politicians than the current batch of grifters and ex-Fox News chuckleheads.

No, he really isn’t.

Trump one had a sane (terrible, but sane) cabinet that largely controlled his wilder impulses.

This time he went for loyalty above all else.

My conclusion was the exact opposite. Maybe each individual response was slower, but it took so many fewer round trips to get what I wanted wanted. I had a project fable was progressing steadily and correctly on. Opus on the same project keeps handing me garbage it insists is working and meets the stated requirements, but isn’t and doesn’t.

Even the worst MBP is light years better than the plasticky crap on the Windows side.

The ore copywriter world did not have any means of mass duplication.

It's easy to imagine that as a world where no one funds any thing resembling research or content because it will get instantly ripped off.
