So according to the Ringer article Wu is still using Uber after Susan Fowler and other women working at Uber have come out about the extremely sexist corporate culture. Interesting when most of he progressive tech friends have vowed to delete the app and switch to Lyft or whatever already.

Weird she hasn't been called out on this yet...
 
This is so tone deaf.

It's a position that could actually play well with voters if she could find even one resident of the 8th district who is suffering from insurance companies fucking with vital medical treatment they need (which, as far as I can tell is everyone in the US who ever needs something expensive doing) who is willing to go on camera and say they believe Wu has a plan to fix the problem. Instead she's going to make an ad about her psuedo-celebrity friend in LA, cementing the impression that Wu doesn't know jack about the district she wants to represent and she's more inclined to represent the interests of special snowflakes in California than Joe and Jenny Lunchpail in MA.

Also, we all know by "producer" she means she's going to cobble another bunch of crap together in Final Cut Pro.

The key is that no one gives the slightest shit about anything written about Wu.
 
Even in Canada you have to worry about your insurance not covering your medical costs fully. It's has more to do with how expensive your treatment is not the insurance company. So if you want to blame someone, blame the medical field. We've seen pharmaceutical companies increase the cost of drugs by over 5000%, how many drugs out there could be cheaper than they actually are?

Patriarchy! GAMERGATE! REEEEEE!

damn you, white men.png


No, you dumb bint. It's because he was physically harmed. All that happened to you is that hundreds of people laughed at you on the internet. If taking the piss out of people were illegal, everyone here would be in jail.
 
Bit off topic, but I realized today how much Wu resembles Jerry Lee Lewis; Jerry Lee was snarling in public before John was a twinkle in his angry, conservative father's eye.

Two things jump out at me. First, the 'engineer' and all-around wunderhacker Wu seems to be proud of the fact that he's playing a game on a console ("Console all the way"). Not that there's anything wrong with playing a game on a console, but it seems a weird thing to be excited about. Maybe Wu is anti-PC Master Race?}:P

Second, someone mentions the criticism about the animations and Wu responds with technobabble. I honestly have no idea if that word-salad means anything (Wu's totes a game developer, and I'm not- just like he's a moon tactician and I'm not) but it's a little funny to see it there after he just talked about how 'we' (democrats) shouldn't talk in incomprehensible gibberish. Wu could have probably said whatever he was trying to say without the industry buzzwords- but then he would sound common. Alternatively, he could be using a professional twitter account for his campaign so as to separate it out from his constant personal nonsense. You know... like what a serious candidate would do.

Also, if an aspect of a game is shit, people do not need to understand why it is shit nor do they necessarily need to have 'empathy by not criticizing it'. The people who created the game are on the hook for that, particularly when plenty of other games have gotten it right.

Edit: I thought it was weird that Wu was getting so indignant about animation criticism (he has since tweeted a few more times about the subject). I assumed it was because Wu is sensitive about being criticized, having designed a video game that was panned by users. Turns out there's another rub- the current criticism about ME's animation landed on a WOMAN and suddenly it's all harassment and gamergate.

Massachusetts politician Brianna 'I love my job' Wu is psyched for ME: Andromeda on Tuesday.

I guess you'll need a break after the town hall on Monday.

Right?

According to what I found through two minutes on Google, Universal Topology is used to take simple XML models and create full infrastructure builds. However, on this same page, I am not seeing it being recommended for modeling animated characters.

But as you said in your spoiler, doesn't fucking matter WHY the animation is shit, it's shit.
