  • Why Animal Well's home-brewed engine was key to its success

    Jump

  • Don't get me wrong, I loved Animal Well, thought it was a stellar and unique metroidvania, but I don't recall any things that couldn't have been accomplished with Godot or Unity.

  • Secret Level's producer can't fathom why Concord ended up failing: 'There was no nicer, more invested group of developers than the team on Concord'

  • Well, they didn't do everything right. There was no marketing for this game and no indication that it had even a single differentiating selling point compared to its already-entrenched competition.

  • Trump expected to select Sen. Marco Rubio for secretary of state: Sources

  • What an absolute farce.

  • This is practically jaywalking compared to the other people in this meme.

  • Ukrainian recruiters descend on Kyiv’s nightlife in search of men not registered for conscription

    Jump

  • Yes, I do. If they're not or can't volunteer to be part of the military there are other ways they can contribute to national defense. See: WW2

  • Sorry but if your country is literally being invaded by hostile forces and your own country's government didn't commit some heinous act to invite said invasion (genocide, or retribution for their own invasion), you are a hopeless coward trying to dodge that draft. We're not talking about fucking Vietnam.

  • Kinda reductive, no? All it takes for a man to be trans is wearing heels?

  • Hello my name is Sacctonsayinlrlyn

  • Likely intentional. I'm guessing they have a name in mind for either gender but don't want to reveal it.

  • You don't see them in the wild because they're terminally online babies who can only exist in an internet bubble, and likely don't represent anything but a tiny fraction of vocal, obtuse jerkoffs compared to the population of vegans.

  • Do you think that the "Boeing debacle" will change what is taught in MBA programs ?

    Jump

  • I'm a recent MBA grad and I can attest that stuff like this was an important part of the curriculum re: sustainable growth. Cutting corners, focusing on short term profits is always a dead end. When leaders get lazy and don't drive a culture that is aligned with the company's mission, values, and obligations, decay is inevitable. The Boeing board of directors is as complicit in all of this as their executives are.

    I don't necessarily believe you have to have deep expertise in a given field to govern a business in said field. Often it's even an advantage to come in with a fresh set of eyes. But you need to at least RESPECT that field and its experts and be forthright about taking responsibility when you take action intended to eliminate waste. If the only metric you are using is revenue, or operating profit, or whatever, you are creating an organization that is incentivized to maximize those at the expense of other, core-business-critical factors. If you're making something inconsequential, by all means take those risks and race to the bottom. But when people's lives are at stake, you need to have reverence for what your business actually does.

  • Harris hires Obama campaign veterans to join 2024 effort, replacing Biden loyalists

    Jump

  • That 'divisiveness' got us an actually electable candidate so fuck off with this revisionist bullshit. Biden was a dead end that was not worth going all-in for, especially faced with the threat of a second Trump term.

  • Netflix's 'Don't Look Up' got $46 million from Massachusetts taxpayers.

    Jump

  • I doubt it brought in 46m worth of revenue to the state though.

  • New York’s Fat Beach Day gives plus-size people a space to be themselves

    Jump

  • You're always going to be judged. If you base your own happiness on the collective opinion of society about you, you will never be happy. You can't control how other people feel, so you need to focus your mental energy on controlling your own feelings.

  • New York’s Fat Beach Day gives plus-size people a space to be themselves

  • Does Hashimoto's disease actually cause obesity? Feels like a lot of people blame thyroid diseases for issues that are actually mostly under their control.

    In the grand scheme of things, weight is a physics problem. I seriously doubt that outside of extreme cases that someone would be obese solely from hyperthyroidism.

  • Recently picked up Wyrmspan and it's pretty much a unilateral upgrade over Wingspan. Hope they do it digitally at some point
