    Detroit: Become Human

    This is free this month (July) on PSN+.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    The language itself or the concepts? I know it took me a while before object oriented concepts became instinctive.

    The Sandman

    If Netflix wants a GoT, you know what they should do? A live action adaptation of the Dragonlance Chronicles. Huge fan base plus tons of material to draw off of for years to come.

    The Sandman

    Well, hope they do a better job than American Gods.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    We have a Russian fellow as one of our devs, been with the company for probably 15 years. Same title as the day he started. I think he just wants to code and be left alone.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Yeah, I think game development isn't all it's cracked up to be. In fact, sounds like a really punishing career -- tight deadlines and potentially super long hours. You better freakin' love coding if you want to go down that road.

    For my college courses we worked backwards from high level to low. Java -> C++ -> assembly. I felt like that was a good path they took us on rather than doing it in reverse.

    If he hasn't done any programming before I would suggest NOT to do C++. That shit is awful and will likely discourage someone new to programming from pursuing coding as a profession or hobby. However, although not free, Udemy has great courses and can be typically purchased for ~$10 when on...

    Windows 10

    I've seen a few YouTube developer commentators admit to dumping their Mac and moving back to a PC. The only way I would even consider a Mac is if I could build my own. That's not really an option so screw 'em.

    The Astronomy Thread

    Meteor Crater in Arizona?

    Javascript, CSS, HTML

    I heard Tuco is all about Svelte.js.

    This is back! First episode was pretty good. But...

    Swamp Thing

    None so far.

    One-Punch Man

    Started watching this after seeing this thread. Really loving it. The scene where he stops short of punching Genos, and the accompanying gale force winds was fucking great. If anyone likes ridiculously over-powered heroes, then you'll enjoy this.

    Batwoman

    I prefer short, petite women but there's something about her that I find wholly unappealing.

    Perpetual Grace LTD

    I didn't get a chance to watch the pilot until last night. I really enjoyed it. This is how a pilot should be: pulls you in immediately and has you begging for more by the end.

    Chernobyl

    Why were they dressed like chefs? 5 episodes with zero explanation on that one.

    Good Omens

    Woah woah...this is out? Why does the OP say first aired 12/2019?

    What I typically do, when merging from other branches, is just create a temporary topic branch for a merge dry run. If everything is cool, then just do the merge...otherwise figure out the conflicts so you'll know what to do on the real merge (or just merge in the dry run if you get everything...

    Swamp Thing

    I really like this. I'm going to keep watching in hopes whatever the trouble they're having is resolved.

    What kind of "Windows" app are you building? UWP? I've never worked with those, but I'm guessing these signing keys have something to do with the Windows Store. Classic Windows WPF and web applications don't require such things.

    Hey, they can just CGI him in!

    Fear the Walking Dead

    Mo Collins? Can't remember her doing anything with horses, though.

    Hey! It's Allison from Teen Wolf.

    Warframe

    Any thoughts on Garuda? Frames I've tried thus far are Excalibur, Rhino Prime, and Mesa Prime. I've had the most fun with Garuda and really like her survivability and utility.

    Playstation 5

    Ditto here. I even have a PS3 backlog that I doubt I'll ever go back to. I'll probably skip this generation.

    Warframe

    A friend introduced me to Warframe a few weeks back. Very impressed. Even more impressed considering the game is free. Why would anyone play Destiny, Anthem, et al. over this?

    What We Do in the Shadows

    Finale was great. Hope this is back for a 2nd season. Any word on how the ratings were?

    What We Do in the Shadows

    Bat codpiece. Laszlo is hilarious.

    Chernobyl

    By the way, what painting is shown in this scene?

    Renewed/Cancelled Shows

    FOX has cancelled The Passage. I enjoyed this up until the finale with the massive time jump.

    Desktop Computers

    Still deliberating over which video card to go with. Any opinions on the Sapphire Nitro+ RX 590? $215 seems like a very good price, and Sapphire is apparently a top-tier card maker. And is silent from the reviews I've read.

    Doom Patrol

    Well, Disney has WAY more cash than DC, plus a wide variety of potentially streamable content. DC's stuff is pretty narrow.

    Doom Patrol

    With the departure of Marvel from Netflix, DC should simply license their material to them. Why bother with the trouble of all the infrastructure needed to support their own streaming service? Sounds pretty dumb to me.

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    This was probably brought up back in the Infinity War thread -- but what exactly did Thanos accomplish by halving the population? Earth, for example, would have been reduced to 1970s population level. Which means in under ~50 years we (and most likely the universe as a whole) would be back to...

    Desktop Computers

    Alright, a used 1070 EVGA NVIDIA GTX 1070 8GB | SC ACX 3.0 | 1920 CUDA Cores | 4K & VR READY! 5173-KR | eBay is going for $250 on eBay. But a few bucks more gets a brand new 1660 Ti which seems comparable in performance to a 1070. And the 1660 Ti was my first choice anyway. In fact, looking...

    Desktop Computers

    A friend is insisting I buy a used Radeon RX 580. And, sure, there are plenty of 8GB models on eBay hovering around $130. But, man, I am skeptical of buying a used video card. Also, the majority of them are MSI and XFX which, from the handful of reviews I've read, are claiming they can be...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    That's what I don't understand. Were the writers trying to make it seem like Jon is a poor general? Or did they think the strategy they wrote was actually sound?

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Haha...I bet he was losing his mind while watching the episode.

    Chilling Adventures of Sabrina

    It's similar to Riverdale, isn't it? Feels like it takes place in a 50s era setting yet is modern.
