Cake day: March 4th, 2024
  • My experience might not match others but honestly I would recommend avoiding this trap. It’s just compromise and disappointment all the way up. Then you’ll be blamed for anything that goes wrong despite only 15% of your plan being accepted by executives. If the company culture is different and fosters leadership instead of stifling it then maybe it could work. At the end of the day you’re probably still going to be making someone else’s dreams come true until you start your own company.

  • Looks like you are correct. I don’t think I could find most if not any of the leaders from the leader pass. Including Sejong. That’s incredibly disappointing. Looking through the contents of the dlc from a proton install I’m not seeing anything that would prevent someone from just using it on Linux other than editing the paths. I’ll experiment some. Maybe I’m naive and there’s a reason why no one else has done it.

    Edit: proton has come so far that maybe Linux peeps just opt to use that for civ6. Especially since the Linux build might be a tad buggy? At least for me it’s definitely had issues.

    Edit2: Ha. It works. That’s wild that they would just lazily not repack it…

    • just copy the windows dlc packs over,

    • copy DLC/_/Platforms/Windows -> DLC/_/Platforms/Linux

    • Then inside the platform Linux dir

    find . -type f -name '*.modinfo' -print0 |
        xargs -0 sed -i 's#Platforms/Windows#Platforms/Linux#g'
    

    Some don’t seem to show up in game still so I’ll experiment more this weekend if I get time and throw together a bash script that downloads all the windows depots and patches them.

    Edit3: for the ones not working it might be due to case sensitive file system. They use audio when looking for Audio

  • Where’s the tin foil hat emoji when you need one?

    But actually I might have been confusing what I’m seeing on job boards with what all the recruiters are telling me or it’s a stale vibe from several months ago. Took another look at LinkedIn, indeed, dice and it seems relatively balanced if not listing more jobs with my stack like you said.

    Doesn’t change the fact that I’m not getting any interactions from these postings though. I finally got one response on indeed last week but after answering their questions and they said I was a strong candidate they directed me to a one way AI video interview site… 3 years ago I had recruiters banging down my door trying to get me into interviews left and right. Trying not to rant but long story short it’s not looking good for tech.

  • At that point I would argue composition/traits are the way to go.

    “This extends Draggable”. That’s great but now we can’t extend “Button” to override the click handler.

    Traits: You wanna have Health, and do Damage, but don’t want to implement InventoryItem? No problem. You wanna be an Enemy and InventoryItem? Go for it. What’s this function take? Anything that implements InventoryItem + Consumable

  • As a wise person once told the Internet, don’t worry about picking the best one. But if you really had to pick one just start with the rust book. https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ I would suggest to just dive in with a specific need you want to solve and instead of using your language of choice just use rust and look up stuff as you go. Hands on learning is usually the best learning. The only thing you need to “learn” is how to follow the ownership/borrowing paradigm that rust brings to the table.
