an example of popular media: art of characters from a song of ice and fire, vs. game of thrones

i've only ever watched the tv series. if i were to read the books, it would be impossible for me to not imagine the characters as they were portrayed in the tv series
yes, this exactly

the priming effect is real

was thinking earlier of the workflow of working on one patch release at a time in a single patch branch, and you had to remember to manually integrate changes into the main branch

part of that was this originally predated perforce streams

this reply didn't get seen, but it sums up every release ive been around.

cascading failures, knock-on effects and all that

"fix your servers" is a rude and meaningless request

anyone doing playstation 2 homebrew? hoping to have a working one with hdd and ethernet soon, so im curious what that workflow's like and if there are any things i should pick up to make iteration more efficient. last time i did anything ps2 was running the game via prodg on a tool at work in 2004/5

i put a large white onion, green onions, a shallot, garlic and a little hing in the food i made last night, but it failed to evoke the passions

must be because i didn't have leeks, chives, and scallions proper ...

im not an artist, writer, designer, modeler, animator, composer, musician or anything, in fact ive never tried, but i do have unsolicited and unwanted advice on how they can make their crafts more efficient and productive that will make their metrics sparkle

im a software engineer after all
