I guess I don't agree because the words already have that connotation for me.

FYI: Christian nationalism is a type of religious nationalism that is affiliated with Christianity, in which the end goal is to achieve an absolute Christian theocracy within a society.

For those wondering, this is a reference to Karl Malden's (actor) work as spokesman for American Express traveller's cheques. In the ads people kept losing their wallets and of course if they had Amex cheques they were fine...

The joke is that Karl was helping them "lose" their wallets

Because if he gets it he will be given the inside scoop. But part of the deal with security clearance is that you are now in a circle of trust, and now you can't talk about whatever it is you now know about with people outside that circle.

That includes complaining about what's not happening because that might reveal info as well. That's the last thing he wants, since that's his entire modus operandi.

When I commented that hadn't been announced.

She's been testifying in a murder trial and the news articles about her disappearance are being deleted...

Reading comments it sounds like there is more to this. GamingHeads sounds pretty shady, not completing orders, bad support, etc. Also this open letter is pretty unprofessional.

I'm not a big Sony fan but this seems like it isn't necessarily an example where Sony is the asshole!

This is really neat. I haven't been able to figure out how to read the NAND and NOR gate examples though.

Is there a good comp sci community on Lemmy?

That's a huge ask. As a former game dev, reading things like that would break me if I was one of the affected ones.

Remember the devs are people. You're asking them to redo a lot of work with very little upside.
