One thing that was a huge breakthrough for me was remote work. It really relieved various issues for me related to dysphoria and personal comfort.

The ability to work remotely also allowed me to move to a state that has a much better record with LGBTQ+ protections without affecting my employment.

There’s a meta community for this.

I would like to have the subreddit set to read-only so I could see old threads, but if the mods decide that a full blackout is better, hey it’s their subreddit. (Until spez kicks them off and installs a puppet mod team at least)

Working from the network share - I’ve worked on a project like this before, it was awful for developer experience. It took seconds to run a git status, it was so slow. Occasionally git would lock itself out of being able to update files, since the network read/write times were so slow. Large merges were impossible.

The reason it was set up like this was that the CEO had the network share we were working off of set up to serve to a subdomain (so like, Bob’s work would be at bob.example.com), and it would update live as most hot-reloads will do. He wanted to be able to spy on developers and see what they were doing at any given time.

I have a lot of programming horror stories from that job. The title of this thread brought up a lot of repressed memories.

I still use the atomos which I got early on a recommendation.

(That being said, I don’t have the Kuva Nukor. Mom said we have Kuva Nukor at home)

This is kind of a bullshit answer, but “as many as it takes”.

I think I have 4-5 forma on some weapons¹, but I haven’t done more than 2-3 on a frame. Some frames don’t need any at all to fit the build I want.

¹ Excluding tenet/kuva weapons, those I always put in 5 since it’s required to get the XP out of them. I often find myself debating what to do with that last forma needed, since at that point the build is rather tight.

I think the need for more forma for frames probably comes with umbral builds, since umbra forma is scarce and the mods still use a ton of drain even with matching umbra polarities.

For weapons it’s just “put in V polarity until it fits”, haha.

whenever I have trouble with finding a color scheme, I just go to the Storm palette and pick colors from there. That’s the best investment I’ve made in warframe cosmetics honestly

The most difficult part so far has been finding communities and joining them.

1. It’s difficult to search for communities that aren’t on your home instance.
2. If you go to a big instance and search for communities there, you can’t directly join them, but have to go back to your home instance and paste something into a specific field, then click “next” since the community is never the first result, then click on the community to load it up in your home instance and THEN join it.
3. Communities are fractured across instances - I found at least five different serves with a “cat” / “cats” communities, and there’s no way to aggregate these, and it’s difficult to search out the rest of the cat content without just going to the other instance servers one-by-one and doing it manually

Sounds like fable 2. I remember at the end of the game getting three options for “make a wish”, and immediately picking the dog. I don’t even remember what the other options were. It doesn’t matter.

I wonder what the breakdown was on how many people chose which option in the end.

Believe it or not, it was a flash game. You can’t play it online anymore, though you can find it for download somewhere I’m sure.

It was called “Obliterate Everything 2” - it was just a small game about space battles, with fairly simple mechanics. But the amount of depth it got from that was so absurd. The difficulty curve was a bit wacky, and I remember talking at length to my friends about the various game design principles I’d learned from observing and judging it.
