Good luck getting one in this first drop.
Maybe these meadows could serve bees and beers? :)
High level tournaments include civilization drafting before a best of N series of games. Occasionally, one player/team ends up with a civilization match up which gives them a clear advantage (because they successfully predicted their opponent's civilization pick - it the opponent had picked something else the advantage might swing the other way). Occasionally games are described as "civ win" when the advantage is large and wielded well.
The doc talks about map generations in the AOE2 space section, but given the rational for prioritizing diversity, I expect this the variety in map generation should lead to a higher variety score.
I really enjoying watching the AOE2 tournament scene: https://liquipedia.net/ageofempires/Portal:Tournaments
Imo the perfect date and time picker should respect ISO8601.
As the author of one of the changes which could have unknowingly causing a 1% regression, I really appreciate this work measuring and monitoring compile times. Thanks to nikic for noticing the regression and finding a solution to avoid it.
If nixos used a different language (e.g. gluon), do you think you would have become more comfortable quicker?
I've wanted to see a Merkle tree based AST for faster incremental compilation (and incremental static analysis).
I wonder if the source manager interface makes this easier to use than editing source files?
AST can still be the source of truth. To edit need to generate source text from AST, edit as text, parse to AST, save.
In other words, I think most of the benefits of this can live behind the scenes for other languages.
An ISA other than x86 starts to get traction in x86's current market.
Electric cars become the norm. ICE cars depreciate in value rapidly.
Growing food in isolated environments, clean from pollution and pesticides, will become a big business.
Renewables provide 80% of world energy.
Towards the end of the decade, younger generation comes into political power with very different perspective on the environment, but their new efforts are halfway too late.
> It becomes harder for users with genuinely new insights to participate because they can’t tell if their insight is new or not and may decide just not to post it.
> Working groups need a toolkit
I wonder if that toolkit might look something like: https://www.kialo.com/
Structuring and organizing discussions like this might make them more scalable.
One difference is Kialo only seems to support binary arguments. There may be more than two design options.
I would hope/expect each other player reaches the same conclusion: sleepsort is the most obvious plan, and 1 second is the most likely interval.
$project_folder = "/whatever";
$input_folder = $project_folder . "/input";
$output_folder = $project_folder . "/output";Were these requirements only added/measured after working on the system for a year or two? Or were they there from the start?
I like to minimize use pronouns like "it" or "that" in a technical discussion.
Communication becomes so much clearer by expanding "it" into something more descriptive and explicit.
Also minimize number of words, and complexity of words.
