Good pod on the topic

Isn't Dishonored somewhat of a spiritual successor?

I remember seeing a comic once about two devs, one complaining that this senior always puts lots of nitpicky comments on her code review, and the other replies that he always makes one obvious mistake, so the senior can point it out and feel like they've done their job

Do your thing internet, cos I cannot find it

Hey, the anime isn't going anywhere. You can still enjoy it whenever you like. Just accept this isn't for you, and be happy for the people it is for instead of gatekeeping.

Any particular goals with Ada? Had an academic curiosity for a few years but never used it in earnest.

Deliberately trying to burn the house down on the way out more likely

Bit disappointed in the 'other galaxy', and the lack of effort to make it feel different. Especially the local raiders being basically tuskans, using the same energy rifles as the main galaxy, more sisters of dathomir just with a different name and they still know of and care about the jedi.

Would really have liked it to feel more distinct from the star wars galaxy, like it had a truely separate history, and not just like another planet.

This episode had a lot of positives though, more insight into Balen's motives and the new storm trooper armour was great.

ARM is also expanding hugely into the autonomous vehicle space, given the amount of computing required in cars is increasing and low power is very desirable.

RISC-V is an interesting experiment into what an open source ISA looks like, and it is getting funding and interest, but I'd say we're at least 5-10 years from RISC-V meaningfully competing with ARM's market share, which it massively dominates currently. It just isn't a coherent product yet.

Good luck ever doing anything embedded if you always need a clunky IDE. Best thing I ever did was get comfortable in a solely vim/cmake/gcc environment. Even if the majority of work doesn't require it, it'll teach you a lot.

Ah so the prime minister had the pass code to his official government phone just written down somewhere... That's great sounds secure to me, carry on

Generally the performance difference will be minimal, but the benefit to others (and yourself in the future) in keeping the code's functionality clear and readable is much more important, especially in a professional setting.

A lot of programmers do have this 'code golf' mentality that less lines == efficient, but unless its a bottleneck and you've benchmarked it to be significantly faster, code readability should always trump performance.
