I hear you, but I will say that there’s a lot of indy games out that are great but mimic the graphics (and requirements) of old. Crow Country is a good one top of mind.

Point being it’s more about what people want to make, IMO.

Welcome to the residence of evil, son.

I’m gonna start fighting everyone in the comments right now.

But also yes, the internet brings the worst out in people.

I can’t be authoritative, but I suspect it’s like an enterprise business culture thing. The world is bigger than we think and enterprise folks see software and it’s usage differently than smaller or even younger folks.

I guess a company that makes garbage software has to have garbage policies too.

Quick, use PSI Rockin!

Lol like facilitate versus effectuate

Dynamic types aren’t static types my man. I think you got some learning to do.

Lol you’ll get no argument from me. It’s not my favorite language.

Theoretically, Javascript is an untyped language, so there aren’t supposed to really be static types. Giving type errors in this situation would be against design.

I know this is for fun, but as general advice to the homies, if a language or system is doing something you didn’t expect, make sure to look at the documentation

This will save a lot of time and headaches

Humor is also part of how we cope with reality as humans, I think.

Even when we’re in the trenches, there’s gonna be some jokes being cracked.

That being said, it’s totally fine to feel this way too, shit is serious and it feels awful

If you don’t do anything with the IP you should be forced to give it up

“raise the bar” is big Amazon language. Maybe a bunch of ex Amazon folks in Hasbro now.

Imagine making sure customers don’t buy your shit.

ICE is just the SS by another name now

Sounds like this is closer to Apple’s Rosetta to make up for their ARM transition.

Alexer, how do I be president?

I mean, people are gonna bite my head off for this, but most non technical folks are turned off by someone calling them stupid… That’s what “RTFM” sounds like. I think there needs to be a culture change to drive adoption, but stuff like the Steam Deck is helping a lot.

This is absurd, they have no business doing this.
