Whenever people ask why anyone makes open source software for free, I’m going to use this as a metaphor.
Dang, a whole dollar? I would sell origami tanks for 25¢ each, didn’t realize people would pay more than that.

Most bad things in the series would never happen— especially to Harry— if people just talked, explained, or defended themselves like human beings.31·3 years agoPlus, Harry would naturally have a distrust of authority figures due to his upbringing. I’m sure he got used to hiding stuff from the Dursleys.
Anders429@lemmy.worldto Bay Area@lemmy.world•Huge arcade to replace Nordstrom at San Francisco mallEnglish6·3 years agoThat matches my experience at most modern arcades. As a kid I remember going to nickel arcades and being able to play quite a few games with just a dollar. Now I take my kids to one and they burn through 10 dollars in like 5 minutes without even playing any actual games.

Anders429@lemmy.worldto Rust@programming.dev•Semver violations are common, better tooling is the answer11·3 years agoWhat’s more, there was a recent discussion about why the derive feature is recommended in serde, and one of the points brought up was that the versions for both crates basically have to be equal. I couldn’t help but wonder, would this be a problem if the releases actually followed semver? Theoretically, it shouldn’t matter what versions you use, as long as they’re above a certain minor version and the major versions match. But since everything is a patch, we have to pin the two crates together somehow.
Anders429@lemmy.worldto Rust@programming.dev•Semver violations are common, better tooling is the answer21·3 years agoProbably a spicy take, but I think any API being used by a macro should be made public. A macro shouldn’t be the only way to do something; it should just be a way to remove the boilerplate required to do it.
I’m sure that copy of mother 3 is bootleg, right?
I had a similar experience. Never played the Hoenn games, but I have copies of both FireRed and LeafGreen.
The worst part is, she probably got very little for those Pokemon games that are now worth $100+ a piece.
Anders429@lemmy.worldto Rust@programming.dev•Semver violations are common, better tooling is the answer41·3 years agoThere are also plenty of purposeful semver violations. For example,
serdemakes basically no attempt to follow semver, and any pleas to do otherwise fall on deaf ears.
Low key actually worth a small fortune. This is a great selection.
