@coolboymew I will surely be there for some of it, then.

@coolboymew If timezone differences and work allow, I will be there.

@ChrisWere Yes, you should. No, it isn't.

@kura Yeah, to me the batteries are more like a plus. Not really a must, or even a should, to be honest. It's the impeccable taste in games that did it for me.

@eSheep

@claudiosegovia A mí con que me digan la verdad y no quieran hacerme luz de gas me basta.

@eSheep
@kura That's how I discovered pretty good games, like _Ghost Trick_.

@veer66 Best of luck!

@wolf480pl It is, of course, but EC algorithms use much smaller keys for an equivalent level of security.

@wolf480pl I haven't studied RSA as deeply (so I'm willing to be proved wrong), but it always seemed to me that the security it offered was based mostly on the size of the key, which made me distrustful of the underlying algorithm. “Computing power is catching up to us! Quick! Use bigger primes!”

@wolf480pl I studied elliptic curves recently and I found the math behind them beautiful. Also, at least part of it (namely, modular arithmetic) is not that hard to explain or grasp.

@vaartis May I interest you in the Yakuza series (or its spin-offs)? They are goofy/fun and usually not very long.

@vaartis For some reason, you don't seem very happy about it.

@vaartis What ending did you get? CW it if you want.

@camelliakyoto Why don't you call them 百年坂, 二百年坂 and 三百年坂, then?

@vaartis I don't know about P3, but P5 has several endings too. (You even have to play NG+ to get the whole thing.) It's sort of the norm for these games. Shin Megami Tensei 3 is similar in that regard. Personally, I see it as a good thing. Unlike so many other games, player's choices do matter here.

@vaartis No spoilers, but you will probably be disappointed in at least a couple of ways.

@veer66 I find those principles helpful in trying to think about and understand my own code (i.e., knowing when it is good and when it is not in terms of structural clarity and correctness). I see myself repeating myself less and using “every part of the buffalo,” as the saying goes.

@veer66 In all seriousness, I'm not even allowed to at my day job; but I try to on my own developments.

@vaartis SMT (at least 3, the only one I''ve tried) is not that hard, either. I don't recommend it, though.
