    The sort of bots this kills: cute puppies every femtosecond, Benedictine quote of the day, notify me when citizen kane 2 releases The sorts of bots this does not kill (they use Puppeteer, Playwright, Selenium, etc, not the API): bitcoin spam, fake camgirl sites, phishing DMs

    This isn't a meme, it's real and I want this. The games industry these days is toxic. Many of the students I see have similar stories about "I learned how to code so I could grow up to make games, but I don't want to work in that industry now" and that's heartbreaking.

    This is the best thread that has ever been made and it isn't even close.
    Thread from the Steam forums for Octopath Traveler 2 saying "49.99 for 3-6 GB game ? Let me get this right resident evil 4 remake cost 49.99 pounds with around 35 - 60 GB aprox download (when it's released ) & octopath traveler 2 the same price for something like 3-6 GB of data ... wtf ?"

    With the pandemic going on, I'm sure it's hard out there for stage actors right now in NYC. Glad at least some of them can find work.

    I gave an exam with a question asking students to tell me what was wrong with some code. I need to go lie down.

    They're not sorry for the fact that the theme of the game is fighting against BLM. They are sorry that their iconography was close enough that people caught on. They promise to change the iconography, not the theme. The devil is in the details here.
