I've just finished playing Metro Exodus, which is another example.

The "good ending" depends on your behavior in the three open areas of the game.

You can still kill "monsters" (mutated humans, animals, cannibals, bandits) without impact, but you should minimize killing other humans, such as slaves, or even hostile but "misguided" NPCs (people that just want you to stay out of their settlement, that you are required to traverse, and who will shoot you on sight).

This is something you can actually achieve pretty easily, just by using stealth.

But reading older posts on this game, many people found this difficult, as the game made easy and satisfying to kill from the shadows.

It's interesting that metro and Stalker both feature this sort of decision tree. I wonder what it is about that culture that leads to this gameplay element.

But that it's not really the case in the example above.

It's not the software engineer duty to know about how a given product is legal in what regulatory environment. That is something that must be hashed out upstream, well before tasking somebody to write a program.

Granted, an expert engineer with strong domain knowledge could be aware of those kind of pitfalls, and offer insights during the product development phase. But again, that should be done before committing to a schedule or making implementation decisions.

Ukraine government also issued a statement saying that the US forces used 800 Patriot interceptors against Iran in three days at the start of the current war.

While Ukraine used just 600 interceptors in 4 years of war.

He wanted seven perpendicular lines ?

Haha. I was like "Glad you've got this 4D chess going on in your head but the user can only see in 3D, buddy."

I still got it. Has been in storage for a long time.

My child did build it some years ago, now it's in his room.

If they plan to put this things in a low orbit their useful life before reentry is low anyway.

A quick search gave me a lifespan of around 5 years for a starlink satellite.

If you put in orbit a steady stream of new satellites every year maintenance is not an issue, you just stop using worn out or broken ones.

Terrestrial data centers save money and recoup costs by salvaging and recycling components, so what you're saying here is that space-based datacenters are even less competitive than we previously estimated.

Well about that ...

This is well know case of a "person of interest" kidnapped by the CIA in Milano, Italy. While the CIA was assisted by the Italian Intelligence, it was a completely illegal operation, without any due process or judiciary oversight.

For what is worth, I read the book this year, after reading about it in the blog Bits about Money by patio11.

The part where it gave you access to a thread you were not a part of seems scary to me..

In this case your absence from the thread was probably an oversight, but in general there could be a very good reason for it

The only way I can reasonably interpret it is that it was a discussion on a Teams channel they had access to but weren't involved in.

this; it was a public channel I had access to, but never look at (I'm on... too many to keep up with, fairly large company).

A friend that was going to deliver a child told us about a dad-to-be that was going around the maternity ward making videos ...

That's a good recipe for getting a black eye. The mother-to-be tends to be pretty much confined to her immediate affairs, but the partner…

(I'm sure everyone is different, but I've been there as the father-to-be, and I would have made a good effort of turning that live-stream into a live-colonoscopy.)

Considering the level of undress and temporary IDGAF of the moms in labor, filming anywhere near them is a good way to get injured.
