The past tense of the verb "to lead" is "led."

"Lead" is a heavy metal.

It's one of the most anticipated translations because it's a beautiful looking game that is just impenetrable if you don't speak Japanese. The best we had before was a translation script that you could read along with a walkthrough guide, but that's not the way most people like to play a game.

It's not surprising that if you start a project for a game like this and then go no-contact for a decade, people will start to look to see if they can pick up where you left off. There's this unwritten rule in the fan-translation community that you don't start working on a game that someone else has already started working on, but what is the time limit on that?

It seems like everyone in this situation could have done a better job of communicating in the first place, and then could have been more gracious to eachother after the fact.

Seven people in France have been arrested and charged for allegedly cyberbullying the artistic director of the Paris Olympics this summer, French authorities announced last Friday.

The Paris prosecutor’s office said the arrests were the “first wave” in a series of prosecutions they intend to carry out in the aftermath of a coordinated campaign threatening Thomas Jolly, the mastermind of the opening and closing ceremonies at the XXXIII Olympiad in July and August.

I should have tried a bit harder to search, the original quote by Sartre is:

"Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance."

“Every line of code is written without reason, maintained out of weakness, and deleted by chance” Jean-Paul Sartre’s Programming in ANSI C

Is this a joke ~~or an AI hallucination~~? I'm pretty sure Sartre never wrote about programming in ANSI C.

There is a book called "Programming in ANSI C" by E. Balagurusamy

I can only find other references to this quote from sites that are linking this article.

The article actually does date back to 2016 so it's not AI generated.

I played Forza Horizon 4 and the Drivatars are pretty convincing. They make exactly the kind of mistakes on the track that I make and they can be challenging but beatable in a way that's much more fun than any other racing game I had played before.
