Confirmed

The shareholders probably care, but to the layman, expecting 6.61 billion and only earning 6.49 billion doesn’t amount to much. They’re not going anywhere.

I don’t know why you’re being downvoted here. I thought a lot of the audience here was relatively informed on what it’s like to work in IT/programming. Where we do what we can to make sure all our updates go well, but things slip through the cracks.

This was a massive fuckup, but it’s likely not that different than pushing a bug to prod, it just so happens that their prod has such a huge audience. I would hope they have very strict rules about what gets in, but I can also respect that no matter how many processes you put in place to make sure bad things don’t happen, problems can still make it through.

Crowdstrike should be held to a higher standard of course, because of how impactful these mistakes can be for their software. And it’s pretty crazy that something this bad slipped through. But I wouldn’t jump to criminal negligence here without more information.

p.s. I’m not saying CEOs / corps should not be held accountable. They should be. And CEOs do have the power to drive the company into criminal acts and they should be held accountable with jail time for that. I’m just saying I don’t think that’s the case here.

I agree, this usage of it was bad.

Probably this.

This is what I was thinking. For a first iteration to get out the door immediately it could just be windows with a “game browser” that launches full screen when you turn it on 😂

I like flutter’s design where you do your markup and styling as code, and then it gets rendered via opengl. So you get that native performance without having to deal with the whole browser stack.

I don’t like how almost all software these days is just web apps masquerading as native apps, but they’re just so damn easy to write compared to anything else.

It probably won’t get rid of js’s dominance, but it’ll give people options. I already see some front end python and rust frameworks thanks to wasm. But for some reason I really don’t like the idea of writing html / css in my rust. But I don’t like the idea of html / css in my rust.

Is it that bad?

For real, I might get it to try it out. I’m learning about it from this post.

This is what I thought at first too. But after thinking about it more, it kind of falls into cybercrime. I can imagine hearing something like this on darknet diaries.

Dang good catch on the second user, I wouldn’t have noticed since I usually don’t look at people’s profiles.

It’s kind of funny that reddit will become this chamber of advertisers making posts and fake users “engaging” while the real people all migrate to lemmy.

Does the bill also include at least a 1.25x minimum wage increase to enforce this as well?

Here I’ll add some context

It is pretty easy not to think about this game, it does not live rent free in my brain. I bought the promise of a space ship over a decade ago when there really was no game. The “game” then was here is your spaceship in a garage, stare at it and marvel. That was the whole game.

Over time i’ve seen bits and pieces of it in my feed, I remember when they added being able to fly the spaceship, idk when that was, but again that was the whole game. You could see pretty space but still no substance.

That was really my last experience with it because I think somewhere around this point is probably where I started working full time and stopped really following game news.

Flash forward to today I see this post to see the game is still a work in progress, I shared my opinion.

So if there is a decent game by now with a plot that would be great, I would give it a shot. But if it’s still just a fancy tech demo where you can run around for a bit but there’s really nothing to “do” then I’ll wait another decade.

I “bought” this game when I was in high school. I’ve graduated high school, college, and I’ve been in the workforce for 7 years. Still no game.

So yes, they should figure out this game is going to be, set a launch date, and work towards that schedule. This forever-in-development thing they have going on is ridiculous.

Edit: Alright, it’s not fair to say “still no game.” There is a game you can download and play, but the question I have is does it have all the bells and whistles you expect from a complete game, or is it a technical demo with some game features? See my other comment in this comment chain for why my opinion is what it is.

Yea I guess I was thinking something like this

1. I earned $100,000 revenue
2. You give me $20,000 donation
3. I make a $20,000 donation
4. I report on taxes I earned $100,000 and donated $20,000, so my taxable income is $80,000 because I wrote off a donation you gave me.

I would have to include the donation either in my earnings or report it some other way.

Dang, not sure I’ve cooked green bacon, but I’ve cooked grayish bacon and it comes out ok. It kind of makes me feel better to know they donate expiring meat. It’d be better if they donated it a little earlier, like no one’s buying the gray bacon, but it’s still edible.

I understand the write off part. The part I don’t understand is if you give me $100, and then I donate the $100 (so cost of donation becomes $80), do I have to report that your $100 donation to me as income? Or did I just use your money to decrease my tax burden?

I am also jaded enough to believe most “charitable organizations” are not very charitable.

I’d rather donate to something I know like my local volunteer fire department or community association rather than some org that has too much overhead. And I’m not interested in researching if every org asking for donations is reputable.
