Tabs are 8 characters, and thus indentations are also 8 characters. There are heretic movements that try to make indentations 4 (or even 2!) characters deep, and that is akin to trying to define the value of PI to be 3....
Also to advocate for a specific tab size while also advocating for hard tabs is nonsense. The one flimsy claim to usefulness tabs have is that different people can use different tab sizes and all at the low, low cost of everyone having five times more work to use tabs for indentations and spaces for alignment and thus having to use visual whitespace of some kind.
I would go so far as to say that languages that allow you to leave off the braces and have macros that look like functions that can generate multiple statements at the same time are just plain badly designed.
Maybe you should take your own advice, according to statista.com/…/sony-sales-worldwide-by-business-s… for the latest available year there (2022) the business segment “Game and network services” is only around 26 billion out of 88 billion total.

So it doesn’t run at a wastefully high FPS for a text editor? Is that supposed to be a selling point for Zed that it renders many, many more frames than a text editor needs?
That “vulnerability” seems more like a case of “people who use hostile networks have not considered which features that work as designed should be disabled in their use case”.
A lot of people have talked about the possibility of forking Mastodon to get the many improvements their communities need. Making such an effort successful is another discussion entirely.
I don’t really see the point in forking a project like Mastodon unless you are already deeply involved with its development. It doesn’t do enough that you couldn’t rewrite it better (as in in a way you understand better and with lessons from the original taken into account) in the time it would take you to fully understand all the details of the existing code base.
nvm a restart fixed it this happend due to accidentally holding down the down arrow for about 40 minutes. anyone know what on earth is happening here?...
Not sure about the down arrow in particular but I have seen objects (e.g. a corner of a book) accidentally lie on a key at the edge of a keyboard before.
VR will always stay a niche technology just because of the limited circumstances where people can use it (e.g. not on the move, not while watching kids,…).
In either case communication is the limiting factor and that scales with quadratic complexity with larger groups (everyone has to be on the same page with everyone else).
I was reading GitLab’s documentation (see link) on how to write to a repository from within the CI pipeline and noticed something: The described Docker executor is able to authenticate e.g. against the Git repository with only a private SSH key, being told absolutely nothing about the user’s name it is associated with....
The ones warning of backlash are often QA, and often don’t get listened to. Then when the backlash inevitably happens it’s all “we are sorry, we couldn’t have known, all the feedback was positive”.
I wouldn’t say that it is a problem with the games industry but managers, sales & marketing people everywhere when they make bad decisions. Those kinds of jobs just attract very egocentric and self-serving people who don’t know how to listen and try to shed blame whenever possible.
And more importantly, while the stupid change itself might have been caught it usually doesn’t translate into a lesson not to listen to the person with the stupid idea next time.
It really isn’t that hard if anything like a silhouette of mountains are in the background and you have a couple of rough hints that give you an idea where to start or how to narrow down possible locations, no AI needed.
It might be easier to train the AI to the specific things Geoguessr players have collected as signs that give away a location instead of letting the AI figure all those out again.
And you misunderstand my point, it always has been a way to compromise your privacy. Privacy matters most in the individual case, with people who know you. If you e.g. share a picture taken at your home (outside or looking out of the window in the background) with a friend online you always had to assume that they could figure out where you lived from that if there were any of those kinds of features in there.
Sure, companies might be able to do it on a larger scale but honestly, AI is just too inefficient for that right now, as in the energy-cost required to apply it to every picture you share just in case your location might be useful isn’t worth it yet.
Governments won’t scan all your pictures to figure out who you are, they are just going to ask (read: legally force) the website/hoster where you posted that picture for your IP address and/or payment info and then do the same with your ISP/payment provider to convert that into your RL info to figure out who you are.
And you might not be worried about your RL friends or coworkers but what about people you meet online? Everyone able to see your post on some social media site?
Nobody is going to scan all the pictures you post for some information that is going to be valid for a long time after it is discovered once. Governments and corporations have had the means to discover who you are once for a long time.
The annoying thing is that notifications really don’t seem to be designed around that concept that you choose which people or bits of information are important to you.
