  • Yes, that’s true. It’s also good enough to make an abstract concept more approachable while getting a kick out of it too. Honestly this is more of a “well akcshually” thing that someone who already knows how this works would point out (nobody has so far) than something that misleads students who don’t get it. It works.


  • I mean yeah, it does have that problem, but even if it’s not entirely accurate it’s good enough to illustrate an otherwise abstract concept that’s not exactly easy to understand for someone who’s just getting started with programming and may not really be interested in it, rather looking to be an artist or game designer. Also humor really helps when it comes to learning. It does way more good than bad in my experience so far.

    I agree with the sentiment, but really more than a boycott where you’re purposefully not buying something to hurt it, it’s more like people opting out of something that’s just bad. It does take a while of being put through the mud for most people to realize and more importantly take action, but eventually it happens. If you’re following video game stuff, look at what happened with Baldur’s Gate in contrast with Overwatch 2. We need some more time (unfortunately) and one daring competitor to offer the catalyst product.






  • The article presents almost no techical reason for Brave being bad, with the affiliate links thing being the worst offender. Don’t like the crypto stuff? Turn it off. “CEO bad” doesn’t mean much, there’re very few leaders with clean hands, if any, and the product itself works well. It’s not like Firefox doesn’t have its fair share of issues both as a product and as a company/ “foundation”
