S tier…? This place?

S tier for environs but C for inhabitants. A or B tier at best

Veterans affairs, healthcare services for veterans in the USA (one of few social healthcare systems in the US, notoriously underfunded and underperforming their services)

Turbine should connect to loudspeaker to make this a closer system lol

TFW the “good” pile is the same as the cull pile

Bruh I don’t think that’s ok,hopefully just ignorance and not malice. even if you change out the first letter you’re still kinda implying other people can be n-words.

You can write anything in anything. The downsides have to be outweighed by the positives and OP is suggesting there isn't enough positive.

That's too bad, I feel like mastering C is the key to having a super solid foundation for all things how computers work. (Not blaming you, most courses just blast through C without exploring the what and whys). There is something to be said for just getting people productive and for that Python is excellent and immediately engaging. Python is probably my best and favorite language, but I think from a wholistic understanding point of view its hard to beat a solid C foundation to build out from.

My opinion, hopefully I don’t get downvoted into oblivion lol: Rust is great for lots of things and its to be commended for forward thinking on so many neglected areas of software development from the last 20 years. I use it almost every day for hobby stuff and have used it from time to time professionally (among Java, python, typescript, c++).

That being said amongst many of its users it has an almost cult like belief in its supremacy and imho attracts some bad people (not all). Because of how much it protects you, many bad developers find it and fall it love with it because it forces them to code correctly and then they can’t imagine that anybody else doesn’t need the guard rails they do. They also see that some of the smartest and best developments in software engineering happen in this space and want to attach themselves to it, and then use it as a bludgeon against others. Lots of very important software was written in languages that are not rust and they work just fine, were able to meet deadlines / be profitable Etc etc. but there is this attitude from many that if you aren't picking Rust these days what are you even doing???

Rust is great but it’s sometimes messy and not the right tool for the job. The whole “slower to develop but faster to correct” (which I’d say needs some real data to prove out, but for the sake of argument let’s say is true) is a trade off, not something that automatically makes it better. Sometimes due to circumstances way beyond your own control as a developer, you won’t know what the right answer is until halfway into development and there are languages that accommodate that scenario much better (imo). This is one of many of rust’s short comings. For a website, it’s just an unusual tool that even if equally useful from a language standpoint doesn’t have as much tooling and community support around it as other web languages. But I’d say it’s not equal even from a baseline level (again, my opinion. I’ve used rust plenty but I’ve never used it for web dev so I’m talking out my butt). Philosophically, does it make sense to over engineer a super powerful Ferrari of a website when a Toyota Camry will do? Especially when the Camry is tried and true and will likely let you be more agile.

You can do anything in any language, but should you?

I haven’t played it yet but would like to so no spoilers please, but from what little I’ve seen it just looks like reskinned and slightly upgraded D:OS2.

DOS2 is one of my favorite games of all time and i am somewhat suspicious that people think Baldur’s gate is some novel masterpiece when really it’s that Divinity is super under rated and relatively unknown by comparison. Can anyone who has played both games weigh in on this?

And if it is the case that gameplay is very similar, is it just the setting / writing that is much better in BG that makes it stand apart or was it just coincidence / hype that made this game succeed harder?

I don't really know what to make of this article.

1. Bosses != executives / people in charge of making return to work decisions. Is there remorse from the people who were actually responsible for the return to work decision-making? or is it middle management who didn't really want to come back either expressing their lack of satisfaction how "corporate" executed?
2. If it really is an ineffective policy It's never too late to admit your mistake and pivot. If you aren't doing that, then what is this besides lip service?

I don't know if this is really the case but it comes across a little as "ah shucks sorry we didn't do so great with all that... oh well too late now, bygones and whatnot, get back to work." You aren't absolved lol every day the policy continues its an endorsement that its what you continue to want
