Imagine getting a multi byte character at the right position to get it split so that one byte gets in and the other doesn't.

A second vote for Core Keeper here. I think it's a safer option than Terraria, which could also be a good option but isn't for everyone.

Well, to begin with you would have to start nearly killing people. If it doesn't happen in a controller environment, the collected data doesn't mean much.

Huh, this sort of issue is what made me leave KDE in the first place. Haven't had such problems on gnome.

More like a tax on weight over roads

I'm not saying it's good, I'm saying I expected it to be even worse.

I agree it's pretty stupid to pay a tax just for owning something. Let's change it so they pay it every time they use it. Much more fair.

Reading the paper, AI did a lot better than I would expect. It showed experienced devs working on a familiar code base got 19% slower. It's telling that they thought they had been more productive, but the result was not that bad tbh.

I wish we had similar research for experienced devs on unfamiliar code bases, or for inexperienced devs, but those would probably be much harder to measure.

Wife has been binging Law and Order SVU recently and I noticed there's a lot of episodes where they have abused children turn into abusive adults, with the explanation that it's a natural response of the brain trying to get in a position where it will never be vulnerable again.

No idea if that theory has any merit, but if true I wonder if that can also happen in a larger scale, to an entire society instead of just to an individual.

Back in school, one of my first sex ed classes, teacher says: "boys have a factory of sperm in their bodies".

Me, trying to be funny: "oh so that's why sometimes there's smoke coming out of my mouth?"

Thankfully it landed well with the classmates, but the teacher was really worried I took it literally.

Not like there's much else worth watching on Netflix these days.
