What responsibilities do publishers do to benefit the developers these days, with Steam available for self-publishing? Looking for an honest explanation, as I read some wiki pages and don’t really understand the value of publishers (same for book publishers).
Factory patterns are horrible, because they mix config into program code, maximizing uncertainty when debugging
I’ve always hated factory patterns because I find them unintuitive, but I couldn’t articulate why I find them that way or even organize the reasons why in my head. I just recognized them as a frequent source of annoying debug sessions. I envy your ability to concisely convey something like this.
regex101.com has a convenient searchable cheat sheet for all the somewhat odd but powerful functions like negative lookbehind/lookahead with a brief explanation of each, a regex pattern input with checkable boxes that helps you get down single replacements vs global replacements, a large input that lets you dump text to test against the pattern, an explanation on the right of what each symbol is trying to match, and the left side lets you switch between the different flavors to see some of the variants between languages/standards. I still have a lot to learn before I’ll consider it mastered, but I have enough common stuff memorized now that it works great for me!
Oddly having several variants rather than a standard despite “regular” being in the name: everyone I work with eschews regex but after finally taking the time to learn more than just the basics of it a few years ago I find it so incredibly useful almost daily.
And they’re delivering a terrible product.

I got as far as seeing they chose Java and opening the constants file, and immediately executed a strategic withdrawal. I love that people went to this level of detail
Yes, and also is fine if you’re using a cell hotspot.
You can also use network namespaces on Linux which Wireguard has a nice explanation and walkthrough on, recommending this as part of setting up wg connections. https://www.wireguard.com/netns/
They discontinued the desktop client about a month ago, which is what made me stop using it.

Laying people off instead of offering to move them to the now-more-important projects has to be one of the dumbest management moves that tech companies repeatedly do. These are people already trained on all the policies and procedures and tooling and “culture” specific to your company.
It’s going to be more expensive to hire and train new people when the dumdums in upper management finally figure out the mistakes they made that got them to a point where they decided they need to cut jobs and projects, and the ramp-up time before you actually start seeing progress on those priorities is going to be seriously lengthened. Of course they won’t acknowledge it was their fault in the first place, and again the heads roll on the wrong end of the corporate ladder.
Ah, so you’re an abdomen guy, eh? I’m partial to a nice thorax.
A man would really have to closely associate his individual identity and sense of security with brand marketing and politics to feel emasculated by a brand changing its logo. Or 10 brands or 100 brands or all brands. That would be a really pitiful excuse for a manly man. It’s like self-emasculation.
I did it on Arch and no problems!
Arch, BTW.
Also, I’m told it’s going to really fail at some point, but so far, pacman -Syu has worked like a charm.

Followed instructions but verification failed, seems like nothing happened except dick got stuck in toaster again. Using Arch, btw.
