What’s happening is that support from VC money is drying up. Tech companies have for a long time survived on the promise that they will eventually be much more profitable in the future. It doesn’t matter if it’s not profitable today. They will be in the future.

Now we’re in a period where there’s more pressure on tech companies to be profitable today. That’s why they’re going for such anti consumer behaviors. They want to make more with less.

I’m not sure if there’s a bubble bursting. It could just be a plateau.

Drawing hands is hard

He’s already beyond that

Isn’t problem solving mostly put things together of what you’ve learned before?

I have a great uncle. The best uncle. He’s telling I’m the best Pokémon player by the way. He works at Nintendo. It’s a wonderful company I tell you. And do you know what he say? It’s all true!

Imagine doing whatever I want with my free time.

It’s an entertaining video. I watched it to have something in the background while doing chores.

It’s headline grammar. It’s deliberate

I agree that people shouldn’t have to die over this, but Putin is dedicated to the invasion on Ukraine. He won’t stop just because someone kindly ask him to stop over the phone. He’ll continue until there’s no Ukraine anymore, and then he might also go for Moldova and other former Soviet countries.

Ukraine has to defend themselves for as long as Putin is willing to continue the war.

Go tell Putin and his friends to stop the invasion and hand back all the Ukrainian territory they’ve stolen. It’s easy!

I agree, and I count that as “key information that’s difficult to understand from the code”.

IMO, comments should be used to provide value to the code. If they’re used too much, then readers of the code will more likely stop reading them altogether. They already got what they need from the code itself and the comments usually don’t add much value.

If they’re sparse, then that’s a good indication they’re important and shouldn’t be missed.

I think comments are good as a last resort when it’s difficult to communicate the intention of the code with other means.

If I find code that’s hard to understand, I’ll first try to find better variable or function names. Often this is enough.

If it’s still too difficult to understand, I try to restructure the code to better communicate the flow of the code.

If that doesn’t help (or is too difficult), then I might add a comment explaining key information that’s difficult to understand from the code.

It was featured in a PlayStation showcase last year. The most notable part of the trailer was a burger. I’m not kidding.
