  • I hear you. It’s amazing how much some company’s code / projects is allowed to suck.

    Not even “my” tiny-little-side-module inside the project source recompiles within 20 seconds… because of absurdly complex and large dependencies to the actual project code.

  • Well, obviously someone did the math and figured out it’s better to have these titles than not. So I’d say you’re wrong.

    If the title makes more people click in the first place and the amount of people who stay to read at least until they know they’re not interested, is bigger than the number of visitors if they had a normal title… the stupid title wins.

  • Unfortunately that’s not just gaming related news, but all news (and non-news).

    It’s by design. It leaves you wondering (and ideally click on the article).

    What I actually would like to know if journalists, or whoever writes the articles, are picking these headlines consciously or if they’re following guidelines. I can imagine both scenarios.

  • My current project is building a (almost) 1gb Java rich client which takes around 2minites to load… while it’s merely a gui with some small client to client capabilities. The technical debt is insane, and it’s only getting worse because neither can they afford to rebuild it from scratch.
