  • I have inherited and also created and passed on many of those Excel files in my professional life. They get a bad rep but they’re also as bad as everyone says.

  • I’m probably biased because I only work for big corpos and it would never be this simple there. IT is usually safe from this kind of dumb stuff, but then again that insulation might have been part of the reason why business people were considering no/low-code.

  • I assumed (in good faith) that there was some (other) original and useful video from LTT about some USB technicalities you guys were referring to :)

    I’ll have to stand by my original take that this video is just a rehash of research done by other people.

  • I’ve worked in business process automation for a bit. In most cases I’ve seen no/low-code is introduced when IT can no longer service technical debt and won’t deliver any new features within reasonable timeframes (usually a result of decades of underfunding). No „real” developer will be ever fixing no/low-code solutions either because why would they? Are they going to fix something in an alien tech stack? Are they going to implement this functionality properly? No, because they never had resources to do that.

  • I meant this Nintendo video, not USB one.

  • In my eyes the quality went up a lot after that wake up call made them overhaul their production process, but it's a shame it took one.

    To me it looks like more of the same, which has always been okay on the surface. Billet Labs fuckup was about more than keeping their sample, it was about negligent approach that amounted to measurable harm to their business. I doubt LTT can fix this long term because their core business is selling ad space for gadget makers and they are still in the race to the bottom, just with better economies of scale.

  • Today’s game consoles are historically overpriced

    Jump

  • Recent price hikes yeah but hardware pricing not seeing any discounts has been a thing for a bit longer and is occurring worldwide.

  • LTT like most of the tech channels these days are just sponsored content intended to sell you stuff with occasional clickbait or ragebait spruced in between. Which is a shame because back in the day it was like Top Gear of nerdy tech. Their quality has been in decline for years which for me culminated with what they did to Billet Labs. This video didn’t bring anything new to the table but is designed to bring views because Nintendo hate is trending. Yes, capitalism is bad and we all exist in a capitalistic society, news at 11.

  • I probably wouldn’t make that kind of judgment about moderator based on post/comment history. I would definitely not make that kind of judgment about the entire instance. That mod should have listed it in the rules if unsubstantiated speculation is forbidden but there are no rules listed so I lean toward CLM. Liberals are easily triggered these days.

    Jump

  • It sounds like you take more of an issue with existence of aim assist rather how it is balanced in particular games. Crossplay is beneficial because it increases the player pool, game longevity and (to the best of my knowledge) is usually optional, no? One would assume that aim assist is tuned to provide a fair challenge to users with different input devices and that in an actual competitive setting that wouldn’t be of any relevance anyway.

  • Yes, let’s call other gamers monkeys based on platform of choice. Kneejerk reaction would be to call PC gamers the most toxic bunch but I know it’s just a loud basement dwelling minority thankfully.
