I'm way overthinking this, but I'm going with finite. It could be an unfathomably large number, but gender is a human construct and there are a finite number of humans. Let's say each human that ever lives has a unique gender identity - there could be billions or trillions, but it would still be finite.

When does something become mainstream? The Steam Deck has sold millions of units.

It's a patent case. It has nothing to do with the creative design of the games.

But yes. Every pokemon is copyrighted. Every pal is copyrighted. (In the US) All creative work is automatically copyrighted to the creator.

You can't copyright "a standing lizard with a small flame on its tail" but you can copyright Charmander. If you copy enough elements that a lay person can't distinguish the original and the copy then it opens it up for a copyright claim.

None of that is relevant in this case.

A patent is to protect a specific invention from being copied. In this case, there is an innovative game mechanic that Nintendo patented has that Palworld copied. The speculation is with throwing an item that captures a character that fights other characters in a 3d space.

The patent is dumb. Personally I don't think it is innovative or special enough to be patented. Patenting software or game mechanic are dumb anyway.

What are you going to do with the other 900mb?

Good human.

Just don't tell your Legal department.

Someone didn't read the article. She addresses exactly this.

I can already hear the trolls making jokes about women being concerned about breaking a nail. If it’s so inconvenient, why not just have short nails? Well, I’m not out here wearing long nails for fun. Being a reviewer often means acting as a part-time hand model for whatever gadget I’m testing. The Internet Nail Police has repeatedly shown up in my comments over the years if my polish is chipped or, god forbid, there’s a smudge of dirt under my natural nail.

Getting started is always the hardest part. Once you've done some good work you can start relying more on word of mouth and charge more.

I would recommend doing some small jobs on Fiverr or Upwork. Contracting isn't for everyone, nor is running a small business. Fiverr and Upwork will be pretty disconnected from your local contacts so if you mess up or decide it's not for you then it's easier to leave.

Ultimately it's networking, instead of rolling your eyes when an acquaintance has an app idea you can offer to help.

Right. There is no solution to the halting problem, that's been proven. But you just showed you can very easily create a way of practically solving it. Just waiting for 10 seconds does it. That will catch every infinite loop while also having some false positives. And that will be fine in most applications.

My point is that even if a solution to the halting problem is impossible, there is often a very possible solution that will get you close enough for a real world scenario. And there are definitely more sophisticated methods of catching non-halting programs with fewer false positives.

The plural of moose is meese.

::: spoiler spoiler /s for non-native English speakers :::

A full solution to the halting problem can't exist. But you can definitely write a program that will "reliably" detect them to a certain percentage.

And many applications do exactly that. Firefox asked me today if I wanted to stop a tab because it was processing for too long.

Now we are getting into the quantum physics question of if the universe is discrete or continuous. Which seems to be unsolved.

So I guess that's my answer. If the universe is discrete then there are finite genders, and if it's continuous then there could be infinite genders.

Wow, I didn't expect an expert to chime in.

He did at one point. I think he's said that he likes being in full control of the project, so he took back over the porting process.

It's really impressive that a single developer does as much as he does.

Hey guys, look at this light mode user! My wall is dark mode. 😎

In a serious note, a developer should be aware of how licenses work. Just copy pasting from Stack Overflow likely breaks the defaults license. You could open up yourself or your company to serious legal trouble. And it really isn't ethical. I wouldn't want code I shared in a certain context be stolen by a large corporation and make them money

I'm no mathematician, but I don't think that's how it works. A quick Google says there are 100 billion neurons. So you would have 100000000000! possible combinations, unfathomably large, but finite. Granted, a human brain is more complex than the configuration of neurons, but I don't know how it becomes infinite.

I'm also way past the point of overthinking this.

Yeah, I got to that point in my thinking and then just gave up and posted my first thought.

I thought something similar, but the human brain is finite, so I don't think a single person could have an uncountably infinite gender; unfathomably large, maybe, but it would still be finite.

But guys, if we use agile then we don't need requirements! We just make something and then the customers tell us if we are on the right track, we just get to iTeRaTe

The Word of Wisdom, which outlines the health guidelines of not drinking alcohol and using tobacco, as well as eating less meat, eating more grains; was originally just as the name suggests, words of wisdom.

Joseph Smith drank wine, used tobacco, and drank coffee up to his death.

It wasn't until the early 20th century when it started to be treated as a commandment. This is around the time when they started codifying a lot of doctrine, stopped practicing polygamy, and started to function more like a mainstream religion and less like a cult.

+1 for Halls of Torment

It's a really solid entry in the rogue-lite vampire-survivors-like genre that Diablo enjoyers could pick up really easily

Once I learned about http files I never went back. It's so easy to share and use, I primarily use JetBrains but there are extensions for VSCode that do the same thing that I have used as well.

You can't have a solution if you ignore half of the problem statement. It's completely unhelpful.

Problem: I want to be able to type better while having long nails.

Your solution: Don't have long nails.

You can do both with Windows Terminal!

Here's a TLDR of your text:

• ADHD brains are well-suited to tech jobs. They thrive on the variety and urgency of IT work.
• Success requires balance. You can't rely on high-stress situations to focus long-term.
• Your experience is your asset. Learn to translate your instincts into process improvements others can understand.
• You'll need new skills. Develop time management and task completion skills to progress.
• Other ADHD-friendly careers exist. Consider EMTs, kitchen staff, or machine operators where focus and pattern recognition are key.

I thought 10x Developer was an even older term. I think it has made a resurgence though.

Once again. Patents have nothing to do with art. And even if they had proof they worked on those mechanics before Nintendo patented them doesn't mean they have the right to use it. Yes, it's kinda a dumb system. But there is a lot of effort to get a patent, and once you have one you have a lot of protection because of it.

Disregard. :) see comment below

Nope, my bad. Im far from an expert but know enough to differential between copyright and parent. I didn't know that prior art had that meaning.

We have 1 TB microSDs. A pigeon could probably carry at least 100. If I did my math right(which i probably didn't), if it takes 24 hours of travel that's still a 8Gb/s connection.

Haha, yeah, free. I totally haven't spent hundreds of dollars on the game. It's over a decade with thousands of hours though. I haven't really played the last couple years though, but that's mostly because I have small children and a career

VPNs are super common for business reasons. A lot of business travelers are going to use a VPN to access files and services only available on their network.

Using a big VPN might be risky; a self-hosted VPN should be less risky. I'd avoid torrenting though, even legal torrents.

Can you ask your IT department their recommendations?

Yup exactly. How do you define successful anyway? It's say that Lemmy is already successful and it's likely to continue to grow.

It's unlikely Lemmy will ever be more successful than Reddit, but it doesn't need to be.

The original tweet is 6 months old, bro. The community is programmer humor, expect low effort tech memes here.

Damn. Good point.

20 years.

But it isn't the original system. It's the implementation done is Legends Arceus.
