In my case, I use a PCI card with an m.2 slot for my OS drive. I lose a PCI slot, but I already had a few to spare.
I use a 1tb ssd for the os/apps with my raid5 strictly for storage. Kinda nice if the os needs to be reinstalled or I want to migrate the raid cluster.
As mentioned by others, he “retired” a few months ago, but he’s not the only one at fault. Many of the other executives contributed to the terrible decision making that landed the company in its current situation and they need to be cut loose as well.
Maybe you should think a little more about the shareholders and little less about yourself. /s
Good point, that is a valid way to do it sometimes, but it’s extremely situational and trying to do that for everything would be absolute nonsense.
I can understand telling you not to use break
and continue
if the point is to teach you to think about different ways to solve problems, but saying it’s because “it makes the code harder to read” is bullshit. Readable code flow is important, but if using those makes your code too hard to read, your problem is most likely that you’ve just written shitty code.
To get really into the technical weeds, what break
and continue
boil down to in the compiled machine code is a non-conditional branch instruction. This is just going to move the execution pointer to a different location in memory. Other keywords, such as if
, elif
, and else
, will compile down to conditional branch instructions. Basically the same thing, but they have the added cost of having to evaluate some data to see if the branch should happen at all. You can achieve the same things with both, but the high level code might need to look different.
For instance, if you’re in a loop, continue
will let you skip the rest of the code in the loop to get to the next iteration. Not a huge deal to instead make the entire code block conditional to skip it. However, the break
keyword will let you exit the loop at any point, which is more complicated to deal with. You would have to conditionalize your code block and force the looping condition to something that would stop it on the next iteration. If you ask me, that has the potential to be much more complicated than necessary.
Also, good luck using switch
without any break
s, but I’m guessing that’s not quite what your teacher had in mind.
In short, just go with it for now. Be creative and find a way to make it work to your teacher’s liking, but always try to be aware of different ways you can accomplish a task. Also, I don’t know what language you’re using, but if you’re in C/C++ or C# and you feel like getting really cheeky, it doesn’t sound like she disallowed the use of goto
. It’s kinda like break
with fewer safeguards, so it’s super easy to write broken code with it.
That’s it exactly. In addition to over-hiring during COVID, the massive spending spree from a ton of over-inflated, short-sighted acquisitions ever since the IPO absolutely demolished the company’s budget. Cutting Weta Digital was only the tip of this latest iceberg.
Damn near everything in Nier Gestalt/Replicant. That game wrecks me every time I play it.
Listen, I built enough lego bridges back in the day to know I ain’t trusting that.
Excuse you, but Riccitiello retired. Sure, it was at the last minute with absolutely no transition plan ahead of time, but it was totally voluntary and not at all forced by the board!
(/s if it wasn’t obvious)
Somebody get that poor pig out of there before the car explodes
Same. My turnaround time on that has gotten so quick, that I just don’t meet people now. Can’t talk too much to someone if you never meet them. And for people I already know, I just assume they’re not interested in anything I have to say.
Personally, I found Arch to be difficult to get installed. I’m ok with command line stuff once everything is all setup, but having to use it for the installation process is something I found to be too easy to screw up and too time consuming overall. Also, I haven’t seen any drop of vanilla Arch with a GUI installer. For the Arch experience, I generally go with EndeavourOS since it’s easy to install, gives you lots of options for the window manager, and is easy to use once you get it up and running.
If you’d prefer the Debian environment, I think anything from Debian or any of its derivatives (Ubuntu et al) would be a decent choice. My favorite is Linux Mint. I’ve seen a lot of people describe it like “entry-level” Linux, but it’s very capable and user friendly. It’s where I tend to spend most of my time when running Linux and I would say usually requires the least setup since it typically just works out of the box.
There’s also OpenSUSE Tumbleweed if you feel like going a somewhat different direction. I get more “traditional Linux” vibes from OpenSUSE, but packaged up in a user friendly manner. I play around with it from time to time in a VM, mostly when I want to test out some new server package locally. But, that said, it’s still capable of handling anything else I throw at it, so it’s fun to use all the same.
No, I don’t work with recruitment agencies anymore. Only ever had bad experiences with them earlier in my career, so these days, I apply for positions directly.
In the last 3 months, I’ve managed to get 2 interviews and the last one ghosted me. It’s still pretty bad for some of us.
Unity employees are shareholders, but greatly in the minority compared to the executives. The C-suite is routinely granted thousands of shares while the lowly employees are given a few hundred RSUs every year, which vest over a period of 4 years. It’s kinda bullshit how little equity employees by comparison, but definitely by design.
That is great turnaround time, but I hope they aren’t crunching like crazy to get these patches out the door. I’m fine waiting an extra week or two if it means the devs aren’t being worked to the bone.
