It's morally wrong to do so. At the end of the day, like every single other war in the human history sadly , the right side is the winning one, be It bombing power plants, hospitals or houses.
Seems I'm getting downvoted. Just to be clear, I condemn war and armed conflicts, If i could make so, no guns would ever be fired.
My point is, it's pointless to argue about the "should be" or "could be", I'm just stating the actual, current state of matters.
There's ALWAYS a winner, in fact, If a war started, someone is already winning, be It one of the involved parties, be It a guns supplier or a manufacturing plant making tanks.
It's naive to think that, people with power to decide what to do in a war, will prioritize a "good and moral war", over getting what they want from It.
Maybe you and I can't see any advantage over an attack and label It stupid, but it is what it is, and maybe the actual intent is not clear to us.
I beg to differ:
Adnan Khashoggi, a famous arms dealer, considered one the richest mans of the 1980s, active on the Iran-Contra affair.
Viktor Bout, famous russian arms dealer active on the FARC.
Sir Basil Zaharoff, greek arms dealer active on the Balkan Wars
And these are just a few most notorious ones.
As I said, when a war starts, someone is already winning, it's a sad but true reality.
it's a cultural thing, countries that had volatile economie and grocerie pricing at some point made people buy all their necessities in bulk, since prices would literally change multiple time in the day, crazy isn't it
I've seen food expire before the date stated, so you should also take into account where you live and the regulatory entities that manage your food and stuff.
The game has been in development for some years now, you can even find some early ads for It. And the lack of action by Nintendo, in all this time, tells me there's no bases for any legal action.
I've seen comparisons for all the pals and the "look alike" pokemons, and honestly, some are inspired by pokemons and some are similar just because they are based on the same animal, I haven't seen any blatant copies.
Have you ever watched The Mist? it would be a nightmare to get captured alive by those horrifying spiders
For anyone that doesn't know, the spiders size varies from a tarantula to a dog, and they reproduce by inserting hundreds of eggs inside you, they then eat you alive inside out when hatching
Mist everywhere, monsters big as buildings roaming around, as well as small dangerous ones;
Car is dead;
No immediate supplies;
You've seen what those things can do and how they can make you suffer before you die;
No foreseeable hope that any human forces can help you.
Got a gun that can end It all with no suffering.
The bitter aftertaste, when the dispair takes place is, chefs kiss. Not every story needs a happy ending.
yes, because the average user doesn't even know there are different browsers, and that they can change the default one, which is great to "vendor lock" your own browser, in this case Safari from iOS
I don't think that's the right perspective to have on this, a good action isn't bad just because It wasn't the best action possible.
And the solution you brought upon, would still leave the first problem afloat, "great, we reduced plastic consumption, but who's going to remove the plastic that is already in there?", It's a paradox you see? If he chooses option A, people will burn him at the stake because he didn't choose option B.
I was skeptical at first when I first got aware of him, then I did some research and there's a ton of philanthropy there, lots of people got some help they needed.
EVEN if it's done with ulterior motives, the non changing fact is that people indeed were helped.
Whichever motives he has behind his persona, he has helped more people than most could or would've helped in their entire lifetimes.
Everyone can agree on VLC being the best video player, right? Game developers can agree on it too, since it is a great utility for playing multimedia in games, and/or have a video player included.

Stop earning an amount of money that, may or may not be utterly necessary to keep his lifestyle (which you may not know).
Spend months or years learning a new technology, meanwhile unemployed or with a job that may or may not sustain his previous expenses (expenses which you may not know).
Re-make every single project that he owns to a new platform while adapting every single thing to a new environment, meanwhile solving a waterfall of bugs and refactoring problems, ultimately consuming hundreds of hours (bugs which you may not know).
After living miserably for a while, hunt for companies that somehow are using an open source tool that, most of the time, won't tick all the boxes a company needs from a tool (companies and boxes which you don't know).
Miraculously find such company and, miraculously rise to a position high enough that you can make a decision which changes the whole core of the development team, impacts licensing for other tools, new hires, compatibilities, and god knows what more down the line (changes which you may not know).
You're suggesting that he goes down years of an even more uncertain path... just because you feel like It? To me It sounds like an Evil person's plan. How can you be so assertive saying something which you may not know about? Jesus
I agree with the developer tools take, they are sometimes unresponsive and difficult to read or analyse, especially snapshots.
Now, I have to disagree about the web standards, all major current browsers are W3C compliant, and developing under those guidelines is an interchangeable operation between browsers.
But of course, this a market, and browsers will one-up one another for a higher market share.
Google for example has been pushing forward almost a new set of guidelines for Chrome, which has a gigantic market share; and those, while widely used, are not the norm, they should be namespaces, we as developers are bound to have to deal with these edge cases unfortunately.
I understand where the frustration is coming from, Mozilla isn't a saint, but with the current state of browsers, you can't possibly say that Firefox is a bad choice, overall It does everything a modern browser is supposed to do.
I'd even say it's a better option now than It has ever been.
If you get Bitwarden pro (really cheap), you can save an OTP link together with the site credentials, it’s really good for keeping everything in one place
