It’s means “here” in French

It’s also regional. Most people around here click their tongues at cats. In Quebec I’ve heard people whisper “ici” at cats.

Yeah but that one time it comes over and you get to pet the cat gives you all the dopamine you need for an entire day

I love this take because it’s the modern ML version of shaming someone for not brewing their own beer

It’s basically just running down the specs. No benchmarks yet.

I think it’s about time. Aside from a few standout AAA titles indie devs have been embarrassing the larger studios for some time. AAA games should be better, they should launch at a higher bar.

MS definitely didn’t get in trouble for this in the past and this time it’s going to work out

There’s been a couple of, I dunno, “benevolent hegemonies”? in tech over the years. The weird thing is that as much as I hate the idea of monopoly, the smart play is usually to embrace them, because if they’re benevolent enough a lot of good comes before the fall. There’s always a fall though.

Yeah exactly. As long as GitHub continues to behave like the Steam of source code no one is going to mind continuing to pay them millions of dollars or that they have a relative monopoly.
