Why does the movie industry present awards to individual contributors (e.g. Best Director) but the video game industry trends more towards awarding projects or companies? (e.g. Game of the Year)

I’ve never seen something like “Best Composer” or “Best Game Designer” going to an individual contributor in a video game award show.

Where is the “Best Supporting QA Engineer” award?

Is there a dialogue about these differences? Is one approach considered better than the other?

Taking a train thru the UK countryside. Nothing like European railways to remind me how much the US is doing transportation all wrong

On a long flight with very slow and unstable connection. Suddenly a totally different browsing and developing experience - you got to see how sites load in slow motion ⏳

I found that, SSR/SSG with streaming (e.g. GitHub) is quite interesting. Even the page haven't completely loaded, you will see the content part by part. Tho you got wait until the information you want appear. The downside is that GitHub is almost not usable to me, as on every navigation the full page loads again.

Simple SPAs take some time to fully loaded, but it's acceptable. For heavy SPAs, I didn't bother trying :P

The best experience is definitely PWA-enabled SPA (e.g. icones.js.org and Elk) - as you'd expected, they open immediately and fully functional!

This draw me thinking the trends of on-demand JS loading, or RSC, etc. Indeed they have some very good strengths, and everything has trade-offs. Just want to say that normally users won't notice the technical difference when having good connections, but we'd be appreciated when finding a website is built with PWA on such extreme conditions. 🫣

This is a credible proposal for DRM for websites in general. It would enable unbeatable adblock-blocking. It would prevent user customization for not just convenience but also accessibility.

I do not say this lightly: Enabling the forfeiture of control over the browsing experience is a fundamentally evil idea that must be rejected now, as it has been in the past, and we must remain vigilant against its reemergence in the future.

A little while ago I wrote a guide for using Git submodules effectively with JetBrains Rider. It’s especially useful if you write your own libraries that you reuse across projects. It predates my Mastodon shift by a couple months, so I probably never posted it here: https://www.stevestreeting.com/2022/09/20/git-submodules-tips-for-jetbrains-ides/

It probably applies to other JetBrains IDEs as well!
