Supply chain makes the most sense. It’s not like pagers are used super commonly and I doubt they have good margins. Would be pretty easy to sneak something in.

They’ll be advertising in China with all those extra men.

So you’re saying they had a… cook off?

I think the concept of night adjusted eyes are already pretty lost in any city these days. We’ve moved away from sodium lamps so night vision isn’t really activated as all. In this situation, you’d want the driver to see as much as possible and from as far away as possible so they can react to pedestrians. And having used vehicles with both OEM LED and normal halogens, the brighter LED definitely makes it easier to see.

Do they have laundry machines?

Can probably work with a cyclist with a light. But in any case it’s not as big of a deal as a pedestrian or cyclist. Anyways brighter lights might be safer since the driver can more easily see pedestrians and cyclists.

The adaptive headlights that fix this are not legal in the US, but in other countries they can be used and will selectively dim parts of their light beams that point at other cars.

That’s a pretty bad example since most functional frameworks include an any or some function that returns early.

I mean aren’t those just issues that any business venture has to deal with? I don’t think the game type matters per se. It’s more a problem of poor business decision making. I don’t think there’s anything fundamentally wrong with chasing trends and they certainly had the right budget. $100m+ is hardly chump change but taking 8 years really put them quite behind.

It’s not like any game is completely original anyways. They all take inspiration from games that come before, some more than others.

I mean it tends to show up in the FE due to JS being fundamentally callback based. You’re basically responding to events and the like. Unfortunately the language was not designed for reactivity so they’re all added on via frameworks.

Yeah, while transit exists in SF… it’s not great.
