This always bugged me as well. Any time Moody is around in the following books it always felt weird, because the writing acts like Harry knows Moody really well, despite hardly having interacted with the real Moody at all.

Not gonna lie, on my first read-through of OotP I was so ticked off when she didn’t die in the forest.

lol just go write C instead

It’s a joke omg

This comment is completely irrational. The fahrenheit temperature is in a screenshot of a text message that was sent in the US. The only temperature in the message you replied to that isn’t in the screenshot is in Celsius. How is that “American exceptionalism”?

My biggest gripe with it is that there’s no easy way to test stuff without pushing it.

The const improvements are fantastic. Keep up the good work!

lmao what book is this?

Looks like the kidnapper also stole the null terminator for this string!

Doesn’t stop your manager from requiring support for the other 4%.

You make it sound like this doesn’t happen frequently.

Any context on him “trashing his reputation”?

Of course not. That title belongs to Fruit Ninja.

That definitely wasn’t the case for this small-town library.

About ten years back, I had moved away from home and was living in a small town with no Internet in my apartment. The only internet connection I had was the local library.

I remember being so surprised at the amount of viruses on those dumb computers. I wondered what the heck people were doing to them to get them in that state, and then one time I saw some dude looking up porn and just downloading whatever programs the pages he came to told him to.

Anyway, I’m glad I have Internet in my apartment now.

Most new books I find are books I check out from my local library. While the library did pay for a copy, so it’s not quite the same, as a reader I didn’t pay anything for it. The barrier to trying the new book is very small, and if I don’t like it I haven’t lost anything.

Readers finding your book online for free are having the same experience. Maybe not everyone who reads it will want to buy copies, but some will. Just like how some who find your book in a library would want to buy their own copy.

The tools will be fairly specific to the game you’re hacking. For example, a lot of tools exist for GBA Pokemon games, but something like porymap won’t work for another game.

It’s like saying someone stole your bike and you don’t want to be immoral by stealing it back.

So, the argument was that there was absolutely no way whatsoever that one could figure out they needed to depend on mio for a good event loop interface. It was totally an insurmountable task!

You still see this same mindset now with people making things like blessed.rs. It’s the same idea, just not wrapped into a library. I find it hilarious when it gets shared in discussions and some people go “oh wow so helpful!”, as if we all couldn’t have found serde and rand on crates.io without it.
