This is a German song about 36 degrees

I see this pattern again and again. For example in the manufacturing industry there’s a network standard OPC UA. It sucks. It tries to extend to absolutely everything (wtf database interfaces?). Like you say, the “integrators” just write a middle layer and move on with their days.

LoL classic is indeed a bad example, but that’s because Riot didn’t deliver and also importantly used a version that was not at the height of LoL’s success. You can use Runescape as a better example for the return to classic working.

Other mismanaged classic games are the Warcraft 3 remake. So classic does not guarantee success, it has to be done properly.

  In a software-rendered game, the CPU draws every pixel. There’s no 3D card involved: the game works out each frame in its own code and writes it straight to video memory

Same thing for \ and / in path separators: Microsoft never made a consistent push for it, and it depends on the application.

    SERVER=(DESCRIPTION (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=MyHost)(PORT=MyPort))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=MyOracleSID)));uid=myUsername;pwd=myPassword;

I suppose it looks like buttocks?

Since they had to rewrite the build file for their program I also assume that something is missing. Didn’t see any mention of verifying that.

I also really didn’t like their denigrating tone. It totally turns me off trying build2, because it seems they don’t understand the point of separating build stages like environment setup (getting dependencies), configure, native build, cross build, packaging. I am a very happy ninja user instead of a batteries-included solution because it does its one job well and can be used very flexibly. I personally detest cmake, so I use nix + own configure script + ninja.

The blog is also wrong about ninja being unable to call configure, but I intentionally don’t want that (I want the build stages to communicate in one direction for sanity).

You don’t have insight into German lifestyle, you have insight into that one woman’s family’s lifestyle (and only less than a year, you’re not a family member at that point).

Backed by statistics, champs that receive new skins are also always guaranteed to be strong or even overpowered for a while (rebalanced before any tournament patch).
