It's the same reason why the guy yelling "I WILL F*** YOUR MOTHER" at Disney World will get kicked out. Riot depends partly on the gameplay experience, including social interaction, for player retention. They are a business and have every right and every reason to push for a more friendly atmosphere that will make for a more enjoyable (and profitable) gameplay experience for their users. I don't want to have to /ignore people in the first place, and am really glad Riot is doing this as a means to reduce this kind of behavior around myself, my wife, and anyone else who plays this game (including many children).

You don't want to destroy companies, disrupt millions who use their services or are employed there, all because of a single fine. The reasonable course of action is to fine a reasonably large amount that will deter them from future occurrences, as the law intended.

I use a 750 Ti on a setup with 3 monitors (main being 1440p) and runs my games just fine on high settings, including WoW, LoL, Skyrim, Civ 5, and a few others. It's more the sufficient for most gaming on a budget, even at higher resolutions.

This is incredibly true. C++ has such a diversity of ways to program that its complexity is limited to what you decide to use from it. With just smart pointers, auto, and the STL you can get away with writing major projects that never use a new or delete, where typing is greatly simplified (no more crazy iterators, just for (auto entry : array)), and where containers efficiently hold and handle whatever you need them too. My favorite new feature of C++ is the rule of zero, where destructors, copy constructors, etc are often no longer needed. C++11 and 14 are amazing.

He had a very good point. There are a million and one amazing languages out there for all sorts of applications but there is a real cost in time and support for using and supporting a niche language.

You shouldn't use such a scammy sounding method for your product, even if you think it'll help you in a minor way. This has a very bad PR feel to it and will probably scare away a lot of customers and take away some of your legitimacy.

I'm assuming the storage is redundant, which means they could divide up each encrypted file among several computers. This means that even if you knew the decryption key, you'd have no way to decrypt it.

What are you talking about? 2+2 agreements are widespread, take a look at my school's transfer guides for example. I personally followed the engineering route and was able to get 2 engineering degrees in 3 years after transferring from my community college. https://www.monroeccc.edu/acad... Where are you getting your information?

Obviously, he never said anything to imply otherwise. Considering that $3,800/year is almost nothing compared to what we pay others, this is an extremely efficient and effective way to provide quality undergraduate education for free for millions of good students. I support it 100% as someone who went to community college and was able to transfer to University of Michigan and graduate for engineering.

Sounds fine to me. At least they will have a clear indication of which channels are worth putting more funding into.

Spying is done secretively; this is no secret and Microsoft makes no attempts to hide this.

It makes sense though. You expand as much as you can until you can no longer grow, then split up and repeat the process. This maximizes growth.

Stereotypes being bad works both ways. A positive stereotype is still bad; don't generalize women as being very bad or very good at technology.

This mode makes a huge difference for how easy it is to use GIMP. I have a theory that a lot of criticism stems from not knowing about this mode.

Deduction means that he still has to pay roughly 70% of the costs.
