So why even bother with source control?
So you can roll back when your unreviewed source causes your program to shit the bed.

Depends. Are you tunnel visioned and can he see a bigger picture? If you jump to conclusions about the fact your boss is deciding something it may be worth asking if you have all the information that has led to the decision.
I'm not saying you are wrong, I'm saying you should ensure you've covered all bases before assuming you're right. Over my career I've seen countless bosses make idiotic decisions, but I've also seen countless bosses' decision declared idiotic only for them to either make sense, or be forced and logical based on information that the people making the assessment lacked.
It's like those people who complain about "change for change's sake". There's no such thing. Change costs money, and the expense is justified for a reason. The reason may simply not be immediately obvious to you.

Not just sports junkies. A very significant group of people don't watch streaming to be entertained by streaming. They watch *specific show* to be entertained by *specific show*. For those people, chopping and changing is not a viable strategy since they want to watch specifically show X at specifically time NOW.

Somehow, I'm still surprised when I see how quickly the lackeys fall into line whenever Trump makes some random pronouncement.
Why should you be surprised by this? Appeasing the executive branches of the government under which you operate is simple generally accepted good business practice. You'd be dumb not to fall in line. Something as simple as stroking the ego of someone with a marketing term can move share prices when talking about any business that may allow a government policy to have a financial impact.
Just look at Anthropic.

You can see how badly the game runs on current console hardware even in the cherry-picked footage they showed to you in the trailer.
I'm just hoping you can turn off all the raytracing shit. They put a lot of raytraced footage in the trailer and you can see denoising is doing a lot of heavy lifting, especially in the in-side vehicle scenes where shadow lighting is completely unstable and hugely distracting.
I prefer to have baked in lighting, than global illumination with shadows which look like they are on meth.

LOL. I don't know where people get this fantasy idea from that AnyPS5 will run anything at all on Linux better than the PS5. At this point it can barely walk games on Linux, let alone run them. Only the most basic of games are truly performant and playable.
