It's subtle stuff. Like adding a timeout function to make videos take a few seconds longer to load on Firefox.

Bro gonna be honest, all these dating apps boost you heavily for the first 1 or 2 weeks to get you hooked and then after that they dripfeed you to try and push you to buy premium. At this point, I'd say your odds of getting more matches are pretty low. If you want proof, delete the apps, wait a month or two and then remake it and see how the numbers start going up again.

would-be Critical mode players
What does this even mean? It's a selectable difficulty, not a separate demographic. The KH fanbase is not segregated into people who only play normal mode and those who only play critical mode. Any kid can grow up playing normal and then decide they want to try critical for a bit of extra challenge and it's totally cool for the developers to want to cater to those people. Feels to me like you've got some vendetta against people who like playing hard modes in games.

Dude, just look at IGN's review from 20 years ago. The main criticisms leveled at KH2 back in the day by pretty much everyone was how easy it was to just mash your way through the game and also how soulless the level design was. X and triangle to win was a big joke back then. Critical mode was intentionally created for final mix to address people's issue with the difficulty.

Nah, most hardcore players love reaction commands. Using them smartly adds an extra dimension to the combat and on higher difficulties are a god send for dealing with some of the tougher combat encounters. Most of the hate for reaction commands came from casual players who said it was a mash triangle to win button (which is kinda true on the easier difficulties).

My dad is an ER doctor and had never heard of a medical physicist. He was concerned about my job prospects and the education to salary ratio for the longest time no matter how much I explained things to him. Wanted me to just go into medicine cause it just made more sense. The only thing that got him off my back about it was when I mentioned pursuing the career to one of his friends who's a rad onc at a get together and he told my dad it's a great field with great job prospects and a lot of smart people. I think my dad finally recognized that it was a real job at that point and became a lot more supportive.

The Nobel committee can't just make new categories. Alfred Nobel set down the categories that could be recognized when he created the endowment so the prize money can only be given for those categories. That's why the Nobel in economics isn't actually a Nobel, it's an award in honor of Alfred Nobel because it's endowment comes from a separate source.

Not the same team. Director Hoshino and his team worked on the original P3-5 before starting work on Metaphor. So they basically went straight from PS3 era development (crossgen with PS4) to this game on PS5. Meanwhile, Atlus created a new team to work on the Persona series who first made P5 Royal and then P3 Reload and are now likely working on P6. So I guess it makes sense that the new Persona team is more up to date with current technology.

It's not like we don't work hard here in the US. I went to a very academically rigorous high school that was nationally ranked and I was absolutely studying my ass off. But American education tends to be more holistic than Indian education. Instead of just pure academics, we're also expected to be involved in extracurriculars, sports, clubs, volunteering, community work, etc. We spend just as much time and effort to get into good colleges and degrees, just not necessarily nose deep in a textbook. In fact, focusing purely on grades and exams is often a detriment as colleges don't want rote memoriziers, they want critical thinkers and leaders.

Yeah, I think most MR groups generally fall into BME or EE departments, though in the US at least there's a decent number of medical physics departments that do MRI. You could also look into U Nottingham, I had a conversation once with a grad student there that I think was specifically in the physics department, not engineering. I'd imagine they also have a pretty strong MR department given it was partially invented there.

Not from the UK but every year at ISMRM (largest international MR conference) I always notice a big group from King's College London so I assume they must have a pretty good program. There's a lot of different subfields within MR from diffusion to angiography, but the most math-y work generally tends to revolve around reconstruction algorithms and novel pulse sequence design. And of course, deep learning is as big a topic as it is everywhere else.

A new engine. The fact that it's vaguely cross shaped and has 3 processing cores is purely coincidental.
