You can try to improve some details of the UI.

For example, when I want to change the character I tries clicking on the name (on the left) instead of pressing "tab". To attack, I tried clicking in the member of the opposing team instead of using the other mouse button.

Also, dead characters must not have 0 movement and 0 attract steps.

I think you can change the statistics of the characters, some character have more/less HP and some more/less attack. It's made more interesting to choose which character to attack.

It would be nice to be able to see the statistics of the opposing team, and be able to identify each one. In particular to see which one is wounded.
That hipster language / mature language dichotomy is a bit ridiculous and does not serve the purpose of this article.
Yeah I think it's more like a market of collectibles such as Magic cards. If they auctioned off the best ones it would kill the surprise element to acquiring them.
I have a somewhat similar funny story. I was ill a lot as a child, and spent a lot of time at home as a consequence. My mom would go to work, my sister to school and I would be in an empty house with not much to do but play with toys or read which you can only do so much of before getting bored. So I would play the records, especially the piano ones because I loved the sound of the piano. And then I'd try to imitate the music on the piano, which was hard enough to keep me busy for a while. And so, over the course of a week or so I taught myself to play Fur Elise (the easy part...). Then, one evening with my mom at home I played her the piece to ask what she thought of it and she burst out laughing wondering what music sheets I had used because it was all wrong: transposed downwards. It turned out the record player was a bit slow...

I'm really happy I picked computers over music because I think that it was more in line with my skills and it is super hard to make a living in music if you are not absolutely top grade, and even then it is hard. But I've always enjoyed music very much.

Super impressive what your blind friend did there, especially to be able to name them like that, I could pick out the chord after a number of tries but to be able to decompose a chord like that without being able to try whether you have it right or not is quite a skill. I'd love to be able to do that but I am not sure how you would train that particular ability.

The number of blind piano tuners is probably much larger than what you'd expect from statistics, I know of two myself, one in Toronto at Lowrey's and another in Amsterdam who used to work for Cristofiori. That's one profession where lack of sight is not an obstacle, and where a better developed sense of hearing is an asset.
Those ideas were at the core of the fascist ideology and that should be enough to allow using the word.
I agree with hyperbolic as was part of my intention. Sparking ww1 is also hyperbolic, I think.

I don’t think it’s ridiculous as this feature by Goog, I think, will lead to many people having worse lives and dying. Providing equipment to totalitarian regimes is pretty bad in my book. China has used surveillance to execute political prisoners [0] in the past, so I think having better digital tools with better surveillance, logically, will lead to more executions and more oppression.

While I do think more people died in ovens during the holocaust, I think the moral calculus is similar between an oven maker in 1936 and a dragonfly coder in 2019.

Really bad idea. That would encourage people to consume wealth over 5 to 10 million during their lifetimes, i.e. destroy real wealth, instead of investing it in productive enterprises, i.e. building real wealth.

You want a situation where wealthy people build a lot more wealth than they consume. The last thing you want is for them to consume their wealth, making themselves better off but the society overall much, much poorer.

Pensions require old people, SS inflation adjusted formula has not increased the population got older. You can pretend the Social Security trust fund was not created, but that’s ignoring giant cash flows.

Heathcare has increased dramatically, then again 80 years ago their was simply fewer things to spend heathcare dollars on. You can’t buy cancer drugs that don’t exist. On top of that the US system is designed to enrich heathcare providers, not nessisarily provide good heathcare. The VA runs a heathcare system becase using the public one costs to much.

That stacked bar chart is further designed to hide the recent reduction in one category ‘welfare’ as other categories increased. Which means it does not support your point.

Testosterone, causing male-female behavioral divergence in general. Excerpting from an email...

"The amount of eye-contact shown by infants at 12 months of age is inversely correlated with prenatal testosterone (Lutchmaya, Baron-Cohen & Raggett, submitted), and prenatal testosterone is higher in males than females." That study seems to be here: [1]. "The amount of eye contact varied quadratically with foetal testosterone level when data from both sexes was examined together, and when the data for the boys was examined alone."

(Why not for when the girls were examined alone? "This may be because there were only 30 girls in the sample, making the resulting model under-powered. A sample size of approximately 60 would be required to give the model a power of 0.8, assuming a similar effect size...")

There's another one about testosterone in girls [2]: "Here, we report that fetal testosterone measured from amniotic fluid relates positively to male-typical scores on a standardized questionnaire measure of sex-typical play in both boys and girls."

That study also references others that directly show cause-and-effect on other mammals: "For instance, in rodents and nonhuman primates, treating developing females with testosterone or other androgens increases male-typical play, whereas reducing androgens in developing males reduces it."

To me, the question isn't whether testosterone affects behavior, it's how much.

I tried to use LXC (and it worked), but for some reason the same setup resulted in 50% (yes, 50%) IOWAIT with LXC in comparison to 4-5% in the 3 KVMs. I didnt really care to look too far into the reason.
The server I run it on only has 2 7200rpm SATA drives in Raid 1, so its obviously not the best thing youd want for massive load or an actual production setup.

I like C#, and I love strong, static typing. If C# had structural typing (like TypeScript does) or just a more expressive type system in general, I'd call it hands-down the best stack to work with for web apps right now.

However, it's ridiculous to call JavaScript and Python hipster languages. JavaScript is probably the most widely-known and widely-used language, and the only reason is that it's the only thing browsers understand for now. For most of its lifespan, no one was choosing it because it was "cool" or niche-y. You could say Node started as a hipster project, but even that has a strong business justification: using a single language on the front and back end.

It's also hard to call Dart a hipster language these days because you need to use it if you want to write Flutter apps. That's very practical and has nothing to do with how cool someone looks.

The bronze age civilisations of the middle east (Akkad, Hati, Egypt) didn't follow this pattern. Egypt, for example, was a Nile + delta empire for most of the three kingdoms/periods. It's only towards the end of the new Kingdom that they expanded into nearby Canaan, and fought frontier wars against hittites along the Phoenician coast (eg, the famous battle of kadesh).

Rome definitely did have an expansion imperative. Land grants and the slave trade were to legions what exits are to tech startups.

Most ancient (and into modernity) armies did self fund by looting though. Even looting fallen enemies for weapons was a substantial motivator. Even in the Roman period, owning a helmet, shield and such equated to moving up a social class.

Our old piano tuner explained to me how in practice when tuning you must stretch the high notes higher and the low notes lower so as to make the piano sound right. He didn't explain why. It was obvious if you played octaves and listened to the notes, and he was an excellent piano tuner and the piano did sound good.

This specific article starts with them doing a non-ECS design, and then running into problems, looking for the right solution, and having ECS solve them. I agree with your point that an ECS is not a one-size-fits-all solution (because nothing ever is), but this article is evidence that it can help even in some simple cases.
That's interesting. In my experience, one of the major advantages of a monorepo is precisely CI. In fact, only after we tried a Monorepo we finally experienced true CI.

An example to illustrate this: You have a library X that depends on Library Y and application A that depends on X. Then when you make a change in Lib Y you want to make sure that the change doesn't break X or A. If A, X and Y live all in separate repositories with separate CI pipelines, then this is hard/cumbersome to solve. In a Mono-repo, if you use a build system like Bazel, it's very easy.

I believe when you say that your Jenkins setup is a mess, we experience a similar situation with GitLab CI. But I think it's important to realize that CI stands for "Continuous Integration". And running pipelines for every individual repository is not really testing integration, it's just testing an individual component. The solution is to use Bazel or similar. Then you will have proper CI.
"Civilization has been a long struggle to prevent powerful people from passing on their wealth and power to their children. "

The opposite. Civilization invented laws so people could pass their wealth and power to their children, to the point that the absolute head of the state was determined by birth and not by skills.

In precivilized tribal cultures there was inheritance of weapons, tools, tents etc. to childrens and of course it played a role beeing born the chieftains son, but no ruler was born that way. They had to directly earn the respect of the tribe, by proving they are good leaders, before they were accepted. Direct democracy, long before the greek "invented" the concept.

I was shocked to see how cheap data was there too. You hear a lot of hectoring about being considerate of users in developing countries and being frugal with their data when designing apps and websites but at least in India it's not an issue at all.
Speculative execution in general is a sizable performance boost that brings in the risk of all sorts of attacks like this. You could of course try to implement it all in a safe way - and of course not every form of speculative execution in existing processors is unsafe - but in practice lots of vendors messed it up and Intel seems to have just produced the least-safe speculative execution implementation. I'd argue that speculative execution's risks were not particularly scary when it became a common technique (a very long time ago!) because things like shared hosting on anonymous machines with hypervisors or multiprocess browser sandboxes storing important data were nearly impossible to predict.

AFAIK Intel, ARM and AMD all have shipped chips that are vulnerable to a handful of speculative execution attacks. Microcode can work around these issues by doing things like changing the micro-ops that instructions decode to or disabling processor subsystems - though what they can or can't disable is something I suspect only the vendor knows, it's common for vendors to include many of what are referred to as 'chicken bits' that are essentially panic switches to disable a feature or subsystem if it turns out to be broken.

Wrong. Keeping wealth long term is difficult.

1. Advisors and accountants do not own the wealth - you set the goals. If you want to spend it or mismanage it, they are not going to stop you.

2. The wealthier you are, the more difficult it is to maintain the real value of your wealth, in general.

3. If you have 3 children, they have 3 children and so on, and you split your wealth equally among your children, even a billion turns into only 5 million within 5 generations - and that is if they manage to maintain its real value over time.

And if they do manage it cleverly and get to keep the real value of the wealth? Great! Society is better off, because that means they allocated capital productively within our society, making the economy more efficient.
An Introduction to SmartNICs
I don't see your argument. Texas improved it's economy by digging out the fossil fuels. It's not like they automatically get oil out of a natural spring and just have to fill up their tankers with it.

Building oil pumps doesn't matter if there is no oil to be pumped. Therefore having the economic viability to build oil pumps is a geographic advantage.

Building a canal doesn't matter if it doesn't let you reach the center of the continent. Therefore the economic viability to build a canal is a geographic advantage.

Building an irrigation system doesn't matter if you cannot control the irrigation.
Therefore the economic viability to build a precise irrigation system is a geographic advantage.

Those investments would be completely worthless without the geographic advantage that is needed to optimally use them. Nails don't hammer themselves but without nails there is nothing to hammer. Yet you seem to be focusing on only one of those and implying that someone else's hammer is not a real hammer, they just found the nails already in place in the furniture.

How to Predict Facebook’s Future
While the physical and temporal scope of a particular empire, and the civilization it ruled over, have sometimes been co-extensive, that does not mean that the definitions are arbitrary or interchangeable. My understanding is that 'civilization' refers to a social organization in which populations, economic and political activity are concentrated in cities, and is independent of which political entity is running the show. In ancient times, civilization did come and go in various regions (e.g. the Indus valley and the Amazon basin), while in the last thousand years, empires have come and gone while the civilizations they fought over have endured.

To be clear, the world did not switch uniformly from one mode to the other. In the Nile and Yangtze valleys, for example, civilization has persisted through several millennia of political change. Cyrus' empire did end with Alexander's invasion, but the underlying civilization of the region remained.
How to teach kids to program with Raspberry Pi
Usually home internet is via other providers, who also have cheap plans. For instance, ACT Giga is 1Gbps, 2.5 TB for about 100 USD per month. Post this limit, speeds usually drop to 1Mbps.
I agree. I'm constantly switching between Netflix, HBO and Viaplay (streaming service in the Nordics) when one of those has a show I want to watch next and the other ones don't have that exact show. I've also started to fall back to renting and (gasp) torrenting movies again because I usually first come up with a movie I want to watch and only then start browsing the services for that movie, not the other way around.
Actually, the telephone companies are often in the same boat as you, not knowing anything more than the immediate inbound carrier. Not all signalling protocols could even relay the information that you are talking about.
If you do the latter, your family will not be wealthy within a few generations, just by dividing the wealth among your children.
In addition to what RHN said, you've got to count absence of some of those features as another combination so you've got whatever power limits there are and also no power.

You've also got cable lengths which I don't believe are limited by the spec but technologically limited. For example you can by 10 foot cables on Amazon but I believe it's currently impossible to buy any 10 foot cable there that has all the features supported that the spec allows for.

Effectively this adds just as much complexity as something formally defined as a feature because end users have to deal with the additional variables just the same.

I'm really trying to avoid doing enough research and combinatorics that would allow for an exact number but look, we're already at thousands which is ridiculous and you know how quickly the numbers grow with only a handful of additional headaches added in.

We're also not counting edge cases like Apples Adapters that are supposed to allow an iOS device to charge while using USB accessories. That's another niche batch of secrets introduced with the 2018 iPad Pros. It only charges using certain combinations not simple requirements like having enough power.
Yeah until the spec changes/expands and you now need another device to tell you whether that stick is up-to-date on the spec :D
