I feel the need to point out that a float isn’t an integer with a decimal stuck on. A floating point number is called that because the precision on both sides of the decimal point changes depending on the size of the number.

It’s actually stored as an exponent and a value to apply the exponent to. This allows you to express incredibly tiny numbers and incredibly large numbers, but the gaps between representable numbers is inconsistent.

You know how 10 / 3 * 3 is often not 10 because the decimal representation loses the repeating .33? In float, you run into the same issue but in much less predictable places.

Check out the demo if you have a chance. The game is a lot of fun and it has some pretty funny demo-exclusive writing.

His ultranationalist coalition partners have threatened to bring down his government if he ends the war without destroying Hamas.

His government is coming down then. You can’t destroy an insurgency through non-social means.

Probably. She was not found guilty of lying about her reason for selling the stock in question, though she was found guilty of obstruction and other lies, along with conspiracy.

She was never charged with insider trading, so if she hadn’t lied, she would likely have been fine.

Interestingly, they also charged her with securities fraud. They argued that, as the face of a publicly traded company, covering up a crime was market manipulation even if it had nothing to do with that company. The judge dismissed that charge.

No. She went to jail for lying to the feds.

Her financial manager was suspected of insider trading. The FBI questioned her about it and she lied to them in an attempt to protect him.

A single registry edit to a key that doesn’t exist because they wanted to obscure that it was possible.

This is what I’ve found too. Tutorials help to learn tools and some basic techniques, but actual learning requires doing. That’s easy if you have something you want to do, but incredibly difficult if you don’t.

Factorio is the best manufacturing/logistics sim by a huge margin. Some of that is technical things, but the biggest contributor is game balance and the complexity curve. They spent years iterating to find a sweet spot.

They specifically used it to make major players blatantly cheat during a tournament so that it would be taken seriously and fixed quickly.

They are facing a genuine supply issue. A different company made a sudden move because they wanted to maximize profits.

Tyson, one of the main chicken processors, killed their no-antibiotics program at the end of 2023. They moved from claiming meat came from chickens that had had no antibiotics used (NAE) to claiming no human-relevant antibiotics had been used (NAIHM).

The rest of the market can’t meet the demand for NAE, at least not in the short term.

There are a couple of decent reasons. One is that your servers may be a network of services that can’t operate independently. Another is that they may rely on things you don’t have a license to distribute.

Hamas kidnapped three people. Israel raided. Hamas shot rockets. Israel bombed.

Indiscriminate killing as usual.

It wasn’t. 5 said the text means the opposite of what it says. Four said enforcing it is up to the federal courts, not state courts. Two wildly different opinions with the only thing in common being overturning the state ruling.

If the items are standardized, all you need in the inventory is an item ID of some sort and a count. You then have an item DB that has name, icon, weight, etc for each item.

If you have random items, you need to store more properties, but you should keep the inventory structure as slim as you can.

Friendly reminder that the investigation was into a real estate deal, not a blow job. That was a bonus when they got nothing in the real investigation.

Why would someone feel the need to leak classified info on the Warframe forums? It’s far-future scifi.

I think you are confusing it with War Thunder.

My understanding is that amortization is the confusing part of the situation OP is asking about. When you have an asset, the cost of it is deducted from income over the useful life. By declaring that it will never be released, the useful life is reduced to zero, allowing them to take the whole tax deduction at once.

They still would have been better off never spending the money. Since they already have, if they have so little cash that they can’t afford their tax bill, it might make sense to throw away future income to stay afloat now.

It gets thrown around a lot as a buzzword, but it really just means “intended to get post-release updates that go beyond bug fixes.” Nearly every game released these days, good or not, classifies as GaaS. It’s functionally meaningless.

It was the subtitles font in Avatar. It had to be read quickly on changing backgrounds.

Petroglyph had Grey Goo and the 8-Bit family, but those are decently old now. They’ve been pretty much the only game in town for quite a while, sadly.
