The claim is not that they play about 33% of every game but that they completely finish about 33% of all games they play.

I understand. But even people who get to the credits of Celeste might not be aware that they're maybe 20% of the way through the game.

The thing about the anti-piracy is true, at least in the original version (I don't know about re-releases).

The way it worked was you had to offer at least a few pizzas that were reasonably close to recipes from the booklet in order to get any customers. Once you had that, you could get creative with custom recipes but if you only did custom recipes, you were bound to fail.


To be fair, I suspect real life is a bit like that too - there will be a big enough % of potential customers who want one of "the classics" for where you are (margherita etc in Italy, pepperoni etc in the UK, whatever) that basically every place that serves pizza will have the same first few options even if they get creative with the rest of the menu.


For us, the DX of uv for dependency management is much better than just using pip and requirements.txt.

To be clear though, we only use uv in the builder stage of our docker builds, there is no uv in the final image.


Kind of off topic but I don't understand the reading time. It says "7.8h 48m". What does that even mean?


The total time is 7.8 hours, so 7 hours 48 minutes. A wrong format string with decimal hours instead of full hours?

With this kind of attention to detail I would not purchase anything.


Unobtanium was a thing in fiction long before Avatar.


I respect your ability to react to such a post in this way. All I could think was "What the fuck?!"


I'm not shocked by that kind of rhetoric anymore; I hear it a lot from supporters of a certain country, unfortunately.


If you want to combine a mixin with a base class you have no control over, just put the base class last in the inheritance chain. Then it does not matter if it calls its super __init__.


And if there are two such base classes?


This is actually covered by the --locked option that uv sync provides.

If you do `uv sync --locked` it will not succeed if the lock file does not exist or is out of date.

Edit: I slightly misread your comment. I strongly agree that having no lock file or a lockfile that does not match your specified dependencies is a case where a human should intervene. That's why I suggest you should always use the --locked option in your build.


Was there any particular reason you stopped making music?

I'm listening to one of your mixes right now and I'm wondering if you were influenced by Klangkarussell at all (or maybe the other way around?) or if that was just the general 2014 vibe.


I’d say it was mostly the general 2014 vibe. But yes, I listened to Klangkarussell and many other German producers. I was probably most influenced by Alle Farben, who was known for his mixtapes before he started producing his own tracks (which I wasn’t really a fan of). But I also showcased a darker side in some of my mixtapes (like "Der schwerste Gang einer Ente" where I used artists like Burial).

I saw myself more as a consumer than a producer. I mainly created mixtapes because I was constantly discovering and consuming new music. When I had the chance to play at a club or an open-air event (I tried it once), I quickly realized I wasn’t too comfortable performing in front of an audience :)

Around that time, I had just started learning to code and built my first little automations to help me discover even more music on SoundCloud. So I noticed this was another (more lucrative with the similar level of passion) career path where I didn't had to be in front of an audience.


Does he have a coherent position on anything?


His main policy seems to be to show the world that he's a big man with big genitalia. And in fairness, he is quite successful at that because much of the world thinks him a gigantic dick.

I'm not really joking, because that really does seem to be the underlying philosophy in what he does: it's whatever he thinks makes him the "big man tough guy". Trying to analyse things beyond that just doesn't make much sense.


Not particularly "show the world" because he's been very demonstrably weak internationally. He's a showman who makes very bold sounds, but his actions show that he will give in to China on Taiwan, like he gave into them on Hong Kong, like he gave in to Russia on Ukraine, like he gave into North Korea on nukes...

Now on Taiwan, he's already stated previously that he will _tax_ China if they invade Taiwan. This contradicts long standing US policy of not stating exactly what action the US will take in the event of invasion, and has had the result of pushing up projections of exactly WHEN China will invade Taiwan to be within the next two years, during Trump's presidency.

The only thing that will possibly make this change is as a condition of financial supporter Elon Musk, who needs those NVIDIA cards that come out of Taiwan so he can pursue his religious mission of winning the AI race. And that's only if TSMC manufacturing capabilities can't be dragged out of Taiwan and set up elsewhere in a sufficient timeframe to reduce the impact if China were to invade Taiwan.


> he's been very demonstrably weak internationally

What you or I view as "big man tough guy" doesn't necessarily align with what Trump views as "big man tough guy". In Trump's view, "solving" the problem of Taiwan one way or the other, when so many other presidents have "failed" to do so, makes him the big man. Whether he completely screws over American interests in the process – never mind the people of Taiwan – doesn't really enter in the calculation.

> Another angry man child’s take on his politics.

That's also a decent summary of his politics.


More power and more flattery, that's it.
