If I look at something that I don’t understand but that a large group of people clearly values very highly, trained experts in the field included, my first instinct is not to form a dismissive opinion based on personal preference. I’ll typically try to find whatever is hidden from me upon first glance. You clearly adopted a different strategy.
How did you arrive at the conclusion that your judgement of art is ultimately meaning-, or even insightful?
It is, probably. But I did a check before I posted and it did display content from Lemmy. Just pointing out alternatives here.
I think Fedilab should do both:
Happy to hear that! Give them some extra pets today!
With type annotations, this problem is mostly alleviated in practice, while still keeping the productivity gains of duck typing.
Please note that this is not a global problem, and that keeping a cat indoors is also not a solution - just don’t get a cat then.
So, female leads in video games are fine when used and perceived as a novelty? Special and cool like they used to be? You can tolerate them if the game is good? Jesus man, I don’t know what to tell you…
For years, Intel’s compiler, math library MKL and their profiler, VTune, really only worked well with their own CPUs. There was in fact code that decreased performance if it detected a non-Intel CPU in place:

That later became part of a larger lawsuit, but since Intel is not discriminating against AMD directly, but rather against all other non-Intel CPUs, the result of the lawsuit was underwhelming. In fact, it’s still a problem today:

Given that the MKL is a widely used library, people also indirectly suffer from this if they buy an AMD CPU and utilize software that links against that library.
As someone working in low-level optimization, that was/is a shitty situation. I still bought an AMD CPU after the latest fiasco a couple of weeks ago.
If you’re open about your own sexuality, this is just a funny story. They share a fun fact about a common experience, the idea being that a majority of the audience is familiar with masturbation and can therefore relate to the frustration of not achieving the experience they initially envisioned.
Coming up with the pun of acoustic pussy is just a witty remark they deemed clever enough to add it to the story.
