You just made me remember The Coma Machine.

One day I’ll figure out the meaning of the song. Real banger, but still don’t have a full picture. One day.

I’m not sure that it can be clearly delineated as a time loop or a causality loop, it’s honestly a mix of both - though you’d probably call it a causality loop, as each “instance of a person” only experiences the loop once.

What about stories about time travel that ultimately form a closed loop? There’s one that has people moving forwards and backwards through time, yet forms a closed loop at the end: >!Dark!<

And this is why I don’t ask the mathematicians in my life to sum up infinite lists of integers anymore. Smh

Wait… If you add all the numbers together, don’t you get 0? Since for every number you’re also adding the negative.

Man, God of War Ragnarok was a fun game. Too bad they didn’t want me to pay for it.

When I wrote that I was imagining something more significant like a code refactor,

Again, a code refactor is not a change in public API and thus does not constitute a semver major bump.

I’d like to have written a more constructive reply, but with most of your comment consisting of explanations with arguments couched in I’m not interested enough to parse out what is what, sorry. Don’t know why you explain UserChrome.css to me.

All the feedback and attempts at studies I’ve seen point in the opposite direction, don’t know what to tell you.

I think you have a misconception about what Semver is. No, changing private interfaces does NOT increase major version - why do you think that Semver specifies that you must declare a public API? This would also mean any bugfixes would result in major bumps, but they don’t, because not every interface change is treated equally.

You also skipped the actual question. What are all of Firefoxes interfaces? Is user flow itself an interface?

That works for libraries, but applications? What is the interface you’re looking at for backwards compatibility? Towards websites, towards workflows, towards CLI arguments, towards ABI, or something else?

There’s also the disadvantage of being perceived as moving slower than the competition. If Chrome is at v162 and you’re at v3, people perceive the version numbers to reflect the quality and development. Shouldn’t be the case, but it is.

Man, Ego got old…

You mean John Evangelion?

It’s a new statement in a new paragraph

What is a new statement in a new paragraph? You didn’t reference anything specific in your paragraph, so I have no idea what you’re talking about.

Accept that you misunderstood and move on.

Accept what? Move on from what? You’re making no sense.

No, he didn’t say “those”. He made a statement about commercial Linux games in general.

When a normal person talks about a topic, they don’t have to continuously clarify that they still talk about the same topic, it’s assumed.

He mentioned that he has a bunch of Linux native games. The commercial ones run worse compared to running under Proton. This isn’t complicated. Accept that you misunderstood and move on.

No idea how you get to that from my statement that’s advocating to make unmaintained games free. 🤷

Oh, now we interpret according to the intent of the author?

I think you misunderstood parts of The Good Place: >!It’s not people in The Bad Place pushing to improve the system, they try their hardest to prevent any improvements (except for Glenn, he’s the only demon that tries). Michael only became better because he learned ethics from a human perspective.!<

And that’s what The Good Place is fundamentally about: you can’t expect people to be good, if they don’t get the opportunity to become good people.

The guy said he bought games, and those don’t work as well natively. You can list games all you want, if he didn’t buy them it won’t change his experience.

So what? They should stop taking money for unmaintained games then.

Yeah, fuck those Linux users! Only sell those games to Windows users! That will help Linux market share :)
