This doesn't go into enormous detail, but I wouldn't say he "doesn't detail what was inappropriate".
Perhaps the point should be that we lost sense for a particular aesthetic during the transition to 3d graphics techniques.

I think this mirrors the transition from painting to photography over a century ago. As photography grew to dominate everyday images, painters had to go in a different direction to distinguish themselves. It's no coincidence that art became more and more abstract as photography grew.
Trying to standardize is already what Mozilla and Apple (by openly stating their proposal was based on Mozilla) attempting to do.

I have fond memories of playing Exile II as a 10 or 11 year old. My dad worked at Boeing at the time, and there was some sort of store where the company sold surplus supplies where he bought used Macs for me and my brothers. These were not fast computers so it was thanks to Exile II "looking like crap" that we were able to play it at all!

I recently learned that one of the elderly receptionists where I work used to do marathons in high heels.

It's amazing what people can do when they really want to do something.
It's a little odd that the link doesn't mention that average working hours has in fact gone down over time in the United States, from 1989 hours over a year in 1950 to 1,757 hours in 2017[0]. That's a decrease of roughly 12%. Not as much as if all of productivity increases had gone into increasing leisure, but I'm not sure you'd expect that to have happened.

This trend seems fairly robust across countries and extending even further back in time. The average work week in the USA was 62 hours in 1870, and was 40.25 hours in 2000, a decline of 29% [1].

My suspicion is that this actually understates the increase in leisure time, as many household chores are presumably easier due to modern tech.

Some imports work. The ones that failed are those with release notes (which were also the more important ones). And they fail silently (succeeded but no releases imported), which is annoying. I could dig up the issue numbers.

>>Are many companies offering 4 day weeks? I’d guess yes.

Uh, probably not. Unless you mean part-time work. Or 10 hour days.
That’s an absurd statement and reeks of the most vile arrogance.

I’m so confused, do you honestly and in good faith make a statement like that? Do you not understand the disastrous social and political implications of approaching the problem like that? Do you not understand that fairness is central to this problem because a coordinated global effort is necessary and there is no fascist world police and hopefully never will be so we are dependent on convincing everyone and fairness is obviously central to this?

Humans care about per capita emissions because that’s one of the only ways to make this fair and we need to make this fair or else we will convince no one.

You are solving a social/political problem. Arrogant statements like yours won’t.
I am in the same boat.

I don't even know why I have to be called a climate change denier or skeptic. The onus is on people who believe the climate is changing to prove it. As to say, it is not my job to disprove something that hasn't been proved.

Now obviously there is "proof" in circulation. But what is it proving? Have any prediction targets been met at all? How much will the sea tides rise and when? How much would have they risen given natural cycles? Even if man mad emissions weren't affecting the temperature would a climate scientist be able to predict the temperature 5 years from now?

Nasa has a few articles about how Earth is much greener than 40 years ago due to global warming -> https://climate.nasa.gov/climate_resources/3/graphic-warmer-...

Are we simply waiting for this new vegetation to mature and reduce carbon emissions? Is anyone factoring in potential plant growth? Could they even measure that? Maybe the earth knows how to naturally cycle?

As I've aged, all I have seen is men make futile predictions about everything under the sun. The more and more variables and extrapolations added to a problem generally leads to an exponentially bad answer. I'm sure anyone who works in a job that does heavy spread sheet work can twist any bunch of numbers to fit a departments desired figure.

Furthermore, the mass fervour of the world for climate change should induce skepticism. Where is everyone getting their sources from?

Arguments such as:

"Think about the children"
"Save the planet"

Are typically go to answers of people who can't make a real point.

Now it is not anyone's fault that they should act hysterical, the authority that is trickling down all this information should be a bit more out spoken. The media also needs to drop the term "experts" and "scientists".

I'd just like to know, in 10 years from now, if carbon emissions were at 19th century level, what would be the temperature be? and at our current rate of carbon emission what will the temperature be? With what degree of accuracy will the figure hold up to? Other then reducing man made emissions, what other planetary behaviour will also reduce carbon emissions? Can they be predicted and have you included them in the report?

Not even going to bother with the political aspect of this all, which actually may well be the majority of this movement. If I truely believed climate change were a real problem for the world, as the above posted said, I would be going after all the billion person populations first and foremost.
Yes.

Ever done manual labor? Or something that requires both intense manual labor and intellectual problem solving, like carpentry or many of the building trades?

Or think about all the various fields that require intense intellectual output, with nothing like the rewards and security of software engineering.

We've got it good. Though, really, the ideal would be for all workers to be treated more like we are, and less like replaceable, abusable cogs in a machine.

>How many senses humans have depends on how you define it

That is true, but considering only the well known 5 senses simplified the correspondence and seemed practicable. My thoughts were focused on reducing the number of sensors and physical capabilities of a known embodiment of real intelligence to say something about what might be a prerequisite for acquiring similar intelligence in a different body. However, I acknowledge that doing so might cause me to overlook something subtle, but necessary. You made a good point, thank you.

In case anyone on HN reads this as saying that nicotine is safe to use, the end of that article is fairly clear:

And then you work on an interface like Confluence's page editor where for no good reason, Ctrl+S is mapped to exiting the edior. It saves your edits in the background while you type, so you don't lose anything. But you get interrupted in a big way.

As with climate change, systemic problems can't be solved with individual action.
Exercise helps a bit with weight, but the overwhelming factor in weight loss/gain is the amount of calories ingested.
I don't think that's true. While physics for clothing have gotten a lot better, it's a lot of visual flash that seem easier to work like scarves, coat tails, pieces that hang down, etc. I can't recall seeing the kind of bounce that those old school pixel art pants have. Those Aladdin/MC Hammer pants have a weight and shape that I imagine is still really difficult to replicate well. But maybe I just haven't seen such an example yet.
It's not clear how what you're saying relates to nested hypervisors, but I don't think anyone does serverless on nested hypervisors. AWS Lambda uses MicroVMs which to my knowledge are not nested.

Watts are Joules / second. If you're doing operations that take 1/20 as much power each but you're doing them 20x faster, it takes the same amount of power in Watts. For a better comparison you'd need to measure Watts * seconds for a given task.

The problem with climate change isn't climate change. It's because it has become co-opted by politics. It's now impossible to discuss climate change without becoming political.

The politics don't even agree relative to the side. Climate change has left the spectrum of left-right wing.
>I don't think you can equate

GP is not equating, and explicitly says so in the first real sentence of their post:

There is a big gap between "crap" and AAA for sure. But think about this (in today's time):

* Half Life 2 looks like crap

* Fallout 3 looks like crap

* Actually any game from more than a few years back, looks like crap

But any of those are hopelessly out of reach for any Indie developer even with today's tools.

There is real AAA from earlier days, that still looks good these days, like:

* Battlefield 3

* Crysis 2

* Call Of Duty Modern Warfare

* etc.

But these games have among the highest budget in history of game development and a respectable revenue stream...

What the author is trying to say is that most people think most games looks like crap (I think so too). There is no point in making AA games (let's assume he didn't mean actual AAA games) as an Indie developer, because people will still think your game looks like crap. And those people who don't (I for instance really like SNES games still), will also be satisfied with the art he can create.

Let's look at Anno 1602 vs. Anno 1800. This is more in the domain of the author. I really like both games and I have to say, Anno 1800 has AMAZING graphics. But the game gets boring after playing it one time to the Investor level... Anno 1602 has graphics that you can probably manage as an Indie developer these days (since you don't need to optimize it at all and have much better tooling). This game never gets old ;). I have more fun playing that one than Anno 1800. Which is another reason why AAA graphics is unneeded. You need shiny graphics if your game sucks. And creating games that suck is what todays AAA industry is all about.
Would be neat if there was a 404-blocker extension to take over the 404 "bling space."

For example, in Firefox the extension could replace 404 bling content with randomly chosen little nostalgic animations and concept art based on the history of the web. It could just ship with a small collection of such stuff without much of a footprint so there's no network hit.

This reads as "we will make tracking harder for everyone else but us" to me, which is even worse.

That looks good, I have a similar style card from a different company. Having it in my money clip for a year has it looking like a baby shredder tried to eat it.
Even many software development jobs don't have that option. It's a bubble within a bubble that gives the employee the power.
The survivors of the firestorms caused by the Allied firebombing campaign undoubtedly did the same and there were an order of magnitude more of them, since firebombing was used to level most of Japan's cities in the final phase of the war.

Take care not to fall for over-dramatization by people with an agenda. While the atomic bomb is a fearsome weapon, in that specific regard, its effects were not special.

EDIT: A 2015 Japan Times article expresses it well:

"...On March 10, 1945, U.S. B-29 bombers flew over Tokyo in the dead of night, dumping massive payloads of cluster bombs equipped with a then-recent invention: napalm. A fifth of Tokyo was left a vast smoldering expanse of charred bodies and rubble.

Today, a modest floral monument in a downtown park honors the spirits of the 105,400 confirmed dead, many interred in common graves.

It was the deadliest conventional air raid ever, worse than Nagasaki and on a par with Hiroshima. But the attack, and similar ones that followed in more than 60 other Japanese cities, have received little attention, eclipsed by the atomic bombings and Japan’s postwar rush to rebuild..."

https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2015/03/10/national/deadly...

(And if you find yourself recoiling at the brutality visited upon the Japanese, bear in mind the combined death toll from the Japanese occupations across Asia are nearly triple of even that of the German Holocaust. While nobody's hands were clean in WW2, some hands were much, much dirtier than others.)
when my friends and i figured out how to send someone a link that would turn on their away message (and profile i believe, cant remember) with whatever we wanted to it to say chaos ensued.
I agree with your aside comment. That quote in the original article really jumped out to me. There are a ton of great indie games that have solid cohesive art direction but wouldn't be considered even close to AAA quality in terms of production effort. Some beloved heavy hitters would include the Steamworld series, Celeste, Undertale, Super Meat Boy. These are games made on a shoestring development team that don't look like garbage.

I think it would be one thing for the author to dig in his heels and make janky looking games because he truly likes them that way, but it sounds from his tone that he'd rather blame external factors for what on some level he knows is his own mediocrity.
A "user agent" should only act in the interest of it's user. If it does not, it shouldn't be used.

>I don't believe AGI is ever going to happen

Do you mean to say that you don't believe artificial general intelligence will happen for a specific reason, or that you hope that it will never happen for a specific reason? I am curious either way. Thanks for your thoughts.
Were I to have a step-daughter, I would apologize for nothing. I've gone without a car in cities that were designed for nothing but. I recycled when the waste company charged for the privilege. Etc., etc., you get the point. I continue to reduce my carbon footprint as best I know how to this day, and will continue to do so in the future. Have I chosen the most effective means? Nope, not always; probably not even most of the time. Sometimes I miss the forest for the trees, and sometimes I just make bad choices based on bad information. But I keep at it.

Live a life that requires no apology, starting today. Too little, too late? I don't know, not much I can do about that. But what I can do is live a life less impactful on the environment, which is what I ought to be doing climate change or not. Perhaps climate change is your personal wake up call to dial back on the life of consumerism. Maybe it's a call to examine some other aspect of your life, I dunno. Regardless, it is an opportunity for examination, and answering the question of your place in the your environment and your impact on it. The rest of it will take care of itself, one way or another.
That's happening too. Lots of popular 2d games aren't really pixelart. Cuphead, Hollow Knight, or Ori and the Blind Forest, Child of Light etc aren't going for a particularly pixelart look and really advancing the aesthetic instead. So there is plenty of non pixelart stuff too if you want. However, fidelity is expensive, and sometimes, a small creator has better things to invest in.
I sidestep this problem by getting to work before all of those people are even awake.
CFAA could (and likely would) apply for remote vulnerabilities i.e. exploiting SQLi on someone else's servers; but in the case of local privilege escalation like this particular case all the exploiting/testing happens on systems owned and controlled by the researcher, so it doesn't violate CFAA and doesn't need any permission from Valve - the breach happened with authorization from the system owner.

You need permission to pentest someone else's systems, you don't need permission to pentest software on your own systems even if that software is written by someone else. In an enterprise setting it's possible that you have signed a contract where you agree not to do such testing or not to publicize its results; but violating that would be a civil matter regarding the terms of that contract, not a felony in respect to CFAA.
