WTF is a 'lolcow'?

OT: Getting attention is highly overrated.

Also, deploying on such day at EOD, a dreaded though... for a good reason.

Let's see how it goes.

For me, I've always found the people's tendency to ask the retarded question "You haven't heard of $something ?" perplexing. Indeed, people pick whatever they like && delve into it, while the other things are left probably mostly untouched. Also, just because a person does like something, doesn't mean they need to know _every_ damn thing about it.

@jestdotty > 'I misinterpreted that as "kafka"'.

An easy mistake to make, given how the two words are just one letter apart.

@Lensflare > 'one of the best villains in all FF'.

Indeed.

'Temples'? 'Devotees'? "Oh, you're selling religion! I bought some Islam yesterday." https://youtu.be/0rIAmHIpEkk?t=14 .

@whimsical Highly dysfunctional one.

Nein.

> 'they should've just poisoned the water supply and called it a mistake.'.

Hmm... IIRC Kefka in 'Final Fantasy VI' did just that... Can't remember the details, though, as I played the game some 20 years ago. But, I'm sure he never called that a mistake. The guy was / is a real psycho.

Fun fact: got praised recently by one of the devs for providing some very detailed info in one of my reports.

...begs the question... why the _fuck_ is my performance being evaluated by the testers? It's always been a riddle to me. Currently I have a lead tester who, on more than one occasion, has demonstrated to me that he knows less than I do. Why is that guy allowed to evaluate && 'correct' my work?

As far as my target audience goes, they have no problems w/ me... Fucking retarded office politics, I tell you.

The only 'Orban' I know is the 'Orban Loudness Meter', which is an outstanding, indispensable piece of software.

Does pretty much what you may expect from the name. Whatever you're playing on PC, you can measure its loudness to see whether it's too loud.

Ha... 'Literally' reminds me of that 'The Big Bang Theory' moment w/ Sheldon. https://youtube.com/watch/... .

@jestdotty @whimsical Yeah, in most cases it's actually _their_ problem. It happens way too often when people read something I wrote &&:

- fail to read w/ understanding,

- fail to read the whole damn thing,

- or just start interpreting shit, instead of just taking the damned thing at face value.

@Lensflare That's also true. I see no point in communication, when there is nothing to communicate.

Haha... you gotta love the logic of plot in porn. "How do we punish schoolgirls for smoking? YES! Let's fuck them!".

A bug in the 'Matrix', you say?

> 'they say if you love something you'll never work a day in your life.'.

Sad lie people tend to say. Sure, you can love something, but it is pretty much never when we love all of that thing. There are always some negatives.

That said, yeah, greedy fucks tend to just take advantage, simple as that. Many in gamedev are there because they want to create games, but you know... overtime, sometimes unpaid. Sometimes forced. The pay is so-so, very often. But hey, "You are doing what you love, so it's OK"... which at some point stops being fun.

Yeah! Make love, !War... Craft. https://youtu.be/0SZpzdJlGz0?t=55 .

/* Awesome episode. */

@jestdotty > 'from the business perspective, you would actually _want_ for the customers to be able to accidentally order 120 pizzas.'.

...wow... takes me back to the early days of IAPs, w/ kids incurring insane bills.

'Silicon Valley' already did it. https://youtu.be/LYu-d6y5HRo?t=116 .

...good for you?

@afaIk > 'Bitwise & is better.'.

Wouldn't know... but why do you think it is?

> 'Manager didn't even bother announcing his notice to the entire team himself.'.

!sure I'd consider that a problem. I think it's something on a need-to-know basis.

> 'Still debating if I should tell the director I'd be interested in his position.'.

If you are interested, then definitely tell about it, yes.

Know a lot, because I read a lot && have seen a lot of shit in development. So, good knowledge && great skills in my field.

...should satisfy your premise.

@Lensflare Well... yes, !in the strictest sense. But file size-wise, definitely. ~~60% reduction, unless my math is failing me.

> 'today a drunk hobo yelled down a major crowded street at me saying she loved my shirt'.

...must be a fun place in which you live.

Well, sounds harmless enough.

> 'they say the greatest trick the devil ever pulled is convince the world he isn't real'.

That's ridiculous. We're all aware of the Devil, && the Canadian Devil. https://youtube.com/watch/... .
