Yeah he didn’t give a shit if they switched to for-profit, he was just mad he wasn’t getting some of that profit

But props to the Columbia U staff for walking out. In other universities this was just par for the course, and the faculty stayed put as students were arrested

Step 1: PR comment
Step 2: Actual thing the company does

It's the standard corporate playbook

I help teams make games

So in other words he’s a useless parasite that hasn’t written a line of code in his life and likely champions in app purchases and cutting features. He’s a bob from office space

Lol yeah, now when you search google for stuff like that the experience is:

You find a website with a link to an owner’s enthusiast discord for your car’s model.

But then once you join you have access to one channel called #rules

Then you figure out you have to react to that one message in that channel with a tire burning out emoji and you get access to another channel called #introductions where you have to describe yourself and your car.

Then if a mod thinks it’s genuine, they’ll let you in to the other channels.

You finally get in and search for your issue. Your issue is really specific, but you don’t know the technical terms to search for, so your keyword of “brake squeaking” pulls up all a massive unorganized list of results purely sorted by post date of anything including those keywords, no way to sort by relevancy or popularity, so you scroll, and you scroll.

You find one message that is close, but you need more info. But before you can post in the #help channel you have to make 3 posts in #general (to fight spam of course).

Finally, after succeeding in the requirements, you copy a link to the message you found in search and post in #help.

A mod tells you to use the search, that question has been answered. You explain that you already did but you’re not sure exactly what to search for. You are now banned

Discord’s walled garden and conversational approach is awful for gestalt knowledge storage and access.

The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't.

In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was.

The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.

Ubi execs are soulless. The devs and artists (who are the ones to do something like this) aren’t

Don’t worry he quoted the Bible

the principal had referred to Bible scripture on several occasions and informed her he was 'well within his right' to enact the discipline he chose

Ah yes, I forgot that Jesus came down to earth and said “don’t enjoy yourself women, your only purpose is just to have children under our neofascist theocratic regime”
