I remember this meme video where a guy insults a cop while addressing him with ‘du’, but as the cop turns towards him, he quickly corrects it with ‘sie’, making the insult 100 times better.
I think they're asking, not just turning around.
"Du Schwein"
Officer: "was haben sie gesagt?" Or a short form like "bitte?"
" Sie Schwein"
The joke being that they're asking politeness form while retaining the insult. IMO the asking adds impact over just turning around, because the officer is offering a chance to pull back.
Maybe you need to try 200 times instead of only 40 times. /s
The worst is old games where only those very experienced still play. Newer games should have matchmaking or randomness, but I guess even then, the subset of people playing online is already skewed towards invested people.
I'm used to implementing C# LINQ (method syntax) queries, which I like a lot (for simple queries) as a functional style linear data transformation process.
It's a bit different than classic procedural scripts, but most things and scripts operate on data either way, where it's no worse and can be better in terms of scoping.
When the simple, direct implementation does not succeed, I tend to do it step by step. Query into a variable, then I can print out the variable, verify my assumptions, and then start from the variable, continuing with the next set of transformations. Using stored json files instead of just variables can also be helpful.
It could certainly change some more, given that it's not a 1.0 stabilized API. Still, I find it comparatively stable. Specifically, the core stuff.
I've used Nushell at work to work with a mass of BSON files for managing "IoT" devices. After implementing a Rust plugin for BSON, Nushell was very useful, and everything else would have been much more of a hassle.
I got interested and hooked on the description, but hadn't used it productively or made the switch. Trying to use it felt quite irritating. After a few instances like that (maybe three to five), I had something I wanted to do and committed to finding the appropriate commands and syntax. After one or two such cases, I felt more comfortable, and progression was much easier through needing and finding additional individual commands, etc.
Because it's so different, there's definitely a barrier, which I think is mainly the set of commands you have to know and, at times, data transformation flow (records vs tables vs lists, and the appropriate mental model to use the correct operations on them).
I didn't use special resources or a full guide or introduction that was not the official docs.Mainly official Nushell docs, command help/docs, web search, and at times LLMs.
Nushell - I love that it exists, and I find it a joy to use over other shells - stable and rich enough as a productive driver, and being actively developed towards a stable 1.0
C# - three more days until the next release, which adds only a few useful-to-me extensions, but the existing base, stability, and usefulness are part of its charm
It shifted with age and with their separation. As a kid, yes, a lot of contact. Later on, no, not much communication. In between mainly during meals, I guess. As far as I remember anyway.
When I moved away there was little contact. When I moved back we had more contact.
My mother, which I was very close/open with died. My father drifted into "alternative thinking", during covid I increased distance because I was unable to assess risk through them, and it never really recovered. Today, the very different world view and reasoning base are hindrances to being closer.
I have a dislike for cutscenes. Often during gameplay, suddenly you lost control, often behavior is inconsistent, and you have to wait to be able to continue to play.
The half-life series shows how it can be done without. Story without losing control. Characters do their scripted behavior within the context of the world.
To continue, turn off your VPN/Proxy. This will allow YouTube to locate the best content".
"We refuse to serve you anything other than the best 'located content'."
A fat lie. Combining refusal with the completely unrelated supposed service improvement of location-based content. To disingenuously sound like they're doing you a service.
