I played it extensively like a decade ago. Never ascended though, it's just too difficult.

My experience after discovering the game was one of being overwhelmed. Every single keyboard button has multiple functions, there's so much stuff happening and you're just stumbling around in a world whose rules you don't understand. (Like real life.)

After some time, I've dived into the spoilers file and gave it an extensive read. I realized that it would have taken years of playing figuring all this game mechanics out. And that even when spoiled, the game remains a lot of fun. (Again, like real life.)

What remains are fond memories and the realization that I'll probably never finish it in my lifetime. And I'm ok with that.

So yes, it's complex and complicated, but rewarding.
I can't see your comment about splitting history - this sounds like something I'd use, though.

How about moving it further up, but making the station completely unmanned, run by robots. They don't even have to be autonomuous, due to the low distance they can be remote-controlled -- fewer resources needed to keep in orbit, fewer resources needed because there aren't any humans. Plus the main inhabitants don't have issues with the vacuum of space, so many experiments could be parked 'outside', maybe on those lattice structures.
NetHack is complicated, but not complex. It has a lot of individual moving parts, but they generally act as you expect them to once you get the overall notion of the game.

There are also spoilers all over the place on the internet, namely on the Nethack wiki, that'll answer any question (literally, any question) about the game that you have.

Brogue runs in terminal / curses with `brogue --term`. It's not _as_ pretty (or garishly colorful), but it runs fine.

> the number of races/background/god combination in DCSS is simply incredible

Brogue reifies the concepts of "class", "god", "race" etc etc into the object system. Every character starts out exactly the same, and you choose your 'build' based somewhat off what you find in the dungeon. You don't learn spells, you pick up staves/wands/charms.

Additionally, it tries very, very hard to never let you grind your character. (As bhickey mentioned, ) the food clock is punishing, and the dungeon is less same-y. Yes, DCSS has branches that differentiate parts of the dungeon pretty successfully, but within a single branch (except for the set levels at the end), they're on the boring side.

When I first started playing DCSS, most of my roguelike experience was with Nethack, so I thought the interface was amazing (stashes! auto-explore! waypoints!), but now I kind of think they're crutches.
That article is rather misanthropic--all humans with average intellect are simply "teachable animals?" And does society and evolution really punish those with high intellect? Sidis was disgusted with sex and removed himself from the gene pool. That's his fault. And how are "smart women" affected by decreased procreation chances?

I have one password for the Corporation (email, VPN, various online databases, dashboards and wikis). I have another one just for requesting vacation time, because that system is run by the Corporation that owns the Corporation I work for.

Then there's the password for timecards (outsourced to another company), goal setting and training (outsource to another company), 401k, medical insurance and just because, another company (that isn't our medical insurance) for handling prescriptions.

Our Corporation has one password expiration timeframe (90 days but not really because they start nagging two weeks prior and won't shut up until you change the password) and the Corporation that owns The Corporation has another timeframe (60 days, but again, they start bitching about two weeks prior) and of course, all these sites have their own ideas about "secure passwords."

Weren't certificates supposed to deal with all this?

There is no indication of who broke the 400ft level: did the drone go over it or did the chopper go below it?

As for drone pilots keeping clear of aircraft, that is only possible when the aircraft are maintaining visual contact with all drone operators on the ground.

Ideally drone pilots would be able to receive smething similar to ADS-B signals and the ground control stations would all direct drones away from nearby aircraft. Sadly the resolution and accuracy of ADS-B in all four dimensions is insufficient to allow automatic avoidance of scenarios like the one posted.

>If you read this thread, it's humorous to read all of the people who think that there is data going back millions of years that links CO2 to climate change.

Except... that data does exist. Sediment cores do contain evidence of past levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide to a fairly high degree of accuracy, and we have sediment cores going back up to about million years ago, or so.

>Global warming caused by CO2 has never been proven

Sure, you can't do a double-blind randomized control experiment with the earth, but when two variables are clearly correlated with a time difference, over millions of years, controlling for confounding factors, it's pretty clear that one causes the other.

>For example, North America was covered in ice at one point, and the temperature increased dramatically over the last hundreds of thousands of years. What caused this, and could the same process be responsible for the warming we have seen in the last several decades?

According to Scientific American [1], the last ice age ended because of a rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide.

No, but I did escape once with a fake amulet of yendor. I think that's when I lost my spirit for returning.

One of my favorite things to do was enter a shop and then throw things out the door of the shop so the shopkeepr didn't think I was stealing. Also, can't remember how, but I used to be able to get my pet to steal things from the shop.

Oh, and if you could pick up the corpse of a cockatrice then anything you attacked and hit with it turned to stone. Nice. Maybe you needed to be wearing gloves to do that. Can't remember it was a long time ago.

I did also get addicted to another text based game called "Empire" for a while. I'm not sure if it still exists.

I think I played it on a Compaq 286.

Oh no... I can feel that long faded addiction tugging me back to the console......I'd better call my sponsor.
> I actually got into history through visual sources and maps

I've noticed that fantasy novels often include maps of the fictional geography of the world, and fantasy authors sometimes write introductions basically on the theme "I've always loved maps and thought they were special". Personally, I've never really looked at those omnipresent maps, because they never matter in the story.

On the other hand, maps are incredibly useful when reading history. Or they would be... but history books almost never include them!

How doing regular 1:1s made me develop deeper relationships
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10695029 is the comment, but it didn't contain much detail.

Splitting history is done fundamentally by setting HISTFILE - nothing too surprising about that.

But for my particular setup, I more broadly divide my shell use by context. I have a script called "session". `session $somename` looks for a screen (feel free to prefer tmux) session named $somename. If one exists, it attaches it. If not, it spawns it. Before doing so, it sets a shell variable SESSION to $somename. My bash_profile then customizes a lot of things based on the contents of that variable, including adding $SESSION to the prompt, and sourcing ~/.session/$SESSION/bash_profile. This lets me set context-specific aliases and such. Because SESSION is set above the terminal multiplexer, new windows spawned while in one context share the same context.

I've found most of this quite nice, but the history is the biggest win.

It's sad how Google, Apple et al. have mostly abandoned the use of open standards in favor of locking users to their own closed, craptastic, proprietary services. Lack of interoperability severely limits the usability of cloud based services. Sadly these vendors seem unable to produce decent tools that work well together, so users are left with their data scattered across crappy services (e.g. Google Apps/Drive/Docs/Calendar etc.).

Lack of interoperability, vendor lock-in, poor usability of many web based apps and crappy touch based UIs makes me feel like we are living in the dark ages of the information society. It's almost as if people have forgotten how powerful tools we had 20 years ago compared to the current web app bloatware and how efficient keyboard + mouse is compared to most touch based UIs.

The "future" in tablets is the same as in phones: It's a lighter, smaller computer.

Keyboards and screens are interchangeable

> Sure you can get a bluetooth keyboard but then why didn't you get a laptop in the first place?

Why not both? It is nice to have a lightweight option that can fit in a large coat pocket, yet be able to "scale up" to a full size laptop or a 42" (or larger) 4K display without having to move between computing devices. As hard as e.g. Google and others try to make transitioning between devices seamless, we're nowhere near the point where that is good enough, but we are very close to the point were a tablet or phone is good enough to act as a terminal of the form I described with the help of a keyboard and screen.

Is there a more arrogant profession (collectively) than medicine? From the article, a mere 60 years later:

ME is not a psychological problem.

And a wish:

Jose Montoya, professor of medicine at the
University of Stanford, said: “I have a wish
and a dream that medical and scientific
societies will apologise to their ME patients."

Any bets on if and when that apology will happen? Have doctors ever even apologized for bloodletting? E.g. they killed George Washington:

By the time the three physicians finished their
treatments and bloodletting of the President,
there had been a massive volume of blood loss—half
or more of his total blood content was removed
over the course of just a few hours.[1]

is sbt an early prototype of what the OP has in mind? I like sbt because it seems to me that by combining (at least parts) of each of compiling, building, and packaging, the entire workflow is streamlined. So for instance, sbt has an incremental re-compiler which applies a suite of heuristics to minimize the code required to be recompiled and is triggered automatically by any change to the source. In practice this is a huge time saver, but it wouldn't work without relying on sbt's obviously detailed knowledge of the dependency graph.
Another example: sbt can also handle package management and deployment, largely via plugins (eg, "native-packager", "sbt-ghpages", "assembly" (uber jar), "sbt-elasticbeanstalk"
Looks nice – but it is not 'private'.

Using only 6 characters as a 'private' URL is too small. How long does it take to have a bot that can make 1000 requests per second to download every single URL in your URL space?

((alphabet_size^number_url_characters)/(request_speed))/secs/mins/hrs = time_in_days

((26^6)/(1000))/60/60/24 = 3.6 days

Reading every single paste in 3.6 days is not private.

You want to reduce the probability of a single URL guess colliding with an existing 'private' URL so that it would take years for a bot to have a decent chance of finding a URL that is already in use.

Read up on the probability of hashing collisions and how fast bots can make requests. Make sure it takes a long time to make enough guesses to have a chance at collision.

If you don't want to do math, just use as many characters as an established company that already has 'private URL sharing'. ex Dropbox, I think they use ~40 case-sensitive-alphanumeric-characters or something.

We built our site, https://appapp.io (a search engine for the App Store) as a one page app. It serves no dynamic content in html from the server, so we were unsure to what extent google would spider/index it.

As far as we can tell, it makes no difference from if it was generated server side: https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Aappapp.io

So yes, Google definitely does index dynamic content. I would love to know if it ranks it equivalently.

Also, Bing does not: http://www.bing.com/search?q=site%3aappapp.io

> The review article...includes the statement "Moreover, even highly heritable traits can be strongly manipulated by the environment, so heritability has little if anything to do with controllability. For example, height is on the order of 90% heritable, yet North and South Koreans, who come from the same genetic background, presently differ in average height by a full 6 inches (Pak, 2004; Schwekendiek, 2008)."

I think that intellectual pissing contests are disgusting. In upper middle-class institutions such as Berkley people seem to revel in it. Everybody embraces the imaginary hierarchy so completely that watching them do it makes me gag. I think that this phenomenon has been intensified by the relative disappearance of the middle class. People no longer aspire to academic excellence because of their passion or enjoyment for the subject they study. Instead they believe that they need to be among the elite in order to have a happy and satisfying life.
