Twine's creator, Chris Klimas, acknowledged one of its key limitations in a blog post several years ago [1]:

> I also think that if you stick with Twine long enough, you’ll eventually bump up against its limitations. Maybe someday, you’ll want to have the player put an apple inside a knapsack and then place that in a refrigerator the player can push around. Games have been created from stranger mechanics.

> Twine doesn’t have a world model. It has variables and flags, but those are tough tools to work with if you are trying to build a simulated world that can be toyed with in any real way.

> So eventually, after futzing helplessly around with $appleInKnapsack, $knapsackInFridge and not $knapsackOnTopOfFridge, and $fridgeDoorClosed, you might think to look for something better to realize your dream of objects containing objects containing objects. You might try Inform or TADS (or maybe even ADRIFT or Hugo, if you are well-read). You hopefully have heard of them in your short interactive fiction career. Ideally, you regard them as neighbors three doors down; you haven’t had a chance, or a really a reason to visit, but you wave to each other on the way to work. They’ve always seemed like friendly, good-natured people. Talking with them is a natural next step.

Any VGA monitor is inherently multisync, which does not imply that it is capable of detecting that horizontal scan is too fast to be safe.

The mechanism by which damage occurs involve the fact that essentially everything inside the monitor is synchronized with horizontal scan, including HV power supply for the CRT (usually even the main SMPS is synchronized with horizontal scan to reduce switching noise). And efficiency of both horizontal scan circuitry and the HV power supply depends on the incoming frequency and it is perfectly possible that some frequency (usually, but not necessarily higher than indended) will cause over voltage somewhere.

I have destroyed one small monochrome VGA monitor (the kind used in late 90's on cash registers) by just blindly switching the output to some SVGA mode, it even involved quite loud bang from inside of it.
There have been plenty of design flaws in commercial jetliners and in most cases, reputation is recovered. But there hasn't been design flaw quite like this one.

I haven't heard anyone say that, but after thinking about it for a second I sure as hell would. A table saw is a lot easier to use than git.
"Table 1 shows that the same doses of caffeine don’t make the mice more active in their cage"

As a former rat owner, and a former locked-up felon, if a rat (or human) is in a cage, it tends to know and act like it's in one. Caffeine isn't going to make you suddenly more energetic in your cage unless you've got some other underlying issues, so that part of the study is instantly suspect.
They can be compatible. Memory tagging does use the TBI bits. Pointer authentication uses an arbitrary number of bits, and the kernel configures the width and whether the TBI bits are preserved. So you can use both, it just costs you 8 bits of signature.

Moreover, this can be configured independently for code and data pointers. iOS turns off TBI on code pointers to get 8 more bits of signature. That's not a problem for memory tagging because memory tagging isn't particularly useful for code pointers anyway.
That sounds pretty simple, thanks!
Git model is simple.

What is complex is the hundred features and commands it provides on top of that model.
the article says 0.14% (0.14102564102564102%), not 14%. that's quite the difference from the current HN title claiming 14%.

editing to add that since this comment, the "article" has been updated to say "14%", but the actual math still doesn't fit that assertion.
Seems like the customer base consists of tiny startups, since the average volume is only about $1300 per customer per year.

The statistics also show that the company has earned only $8700 in a year (assuming the 1% transaction fee quoted on the web site), which suggests that the company has no employees other than its founders and won't be able to hire anyone unless it starts growing very quickly.
I didn't know that there was a way to financially support iTerm2, an app I've used constantly for many years. iTerm2 is incredibly well executed and regularly updated. Turns out there are multiple ways to help, so I'm now a supporter.
I used Colemak (which is similar to Dvorak) and I would really recommend learning it if you don't already touch type. It does involve a little bit of pain at first and you'll feel really tempted to go back but in a week I was already fast enough to do useful work. I'm not a speed demon by any means, I type at the same speed I did before (60 wpm) except now I don't need to look at the keyboard which is very convenient in ways I didn't realize would be possible before. For example now it's much easier for me to take notes in a meeting or class because I can keep my eyes on the subject.

The worst part was having to relearn keyboard shortcuts, so I don't know if I'd recommend it to an emacs or vim user.

There's a github repor [1] of a similar name that implements steganography using a method described by a paper[2]. Is this website just finding images that have messages encoded using this package? The website is down, idk. Also I thought the point of steganography was plausible deniability. How are they able to detect secret messages?

I think you're not paranoid enough about HF. It doesn't wash off, and is small enough to pass through skin to form insoluble mineral precipitate with calcium in bone and blood, which can result in amputations from dead tissue. It's one of the few acids capable of eating through silicates in glass or rock.

Even at lower concentrations, you still need specialized gloves, apron, and ideally a face shield, in addition to standard PPE. Source: worked with HF for 3 years.

Dr. Peter Plichta figured out how to make silane fuel, basically replacing carbon with silicon.

> Before the 1970s, silanes were considered unsuitable for use as fuels, because they instantaneously self-combust at room temperature. Not satisfied to leave it at that however, Plichta went to work and succeeded in producing longer-chained silanes that appeared as clear, oily liquids and were stable at room temperature.

Web browser... for a local repo? Or do you mean you don't have a solution if your repo isn't on GitHub or you don't have an internet connection handy?

(You should also time yourself on your web interface by the way.)
That's easy with the TUI

Me too, I’ve been putting it off for too long.
Yeah, there was some improvement. But the issue for me is building a C++ app which requires Linux headers, Boost headers, and Wt, CLion seems to wants to take four cpu's for a hot trip. Even with a bunch of the code helpers turned off.

VSCode with CMake, clangd, and C++ code filter seems to work for the little I've used it so far.

Havn't quite taken the leap of faith in VIM, clangd to see if that is suitable.
As others have mentioned, the fallback license is for the point releases you have paid 12 months for, not the most recent release during your subscription (which is what your comment suggests).

It’s also worth noting that the requirement is 12 consecutive months. You can’t have any breaks so you need to be actively subscribed to take advantage of this.

It’s not the best solution (I am a fan of pay for a year (prepaid or monthly) and you get 12 months of updates where you keep all of them), but it’s a good compromise in the era of SaaS. And a compromise I’m willing to make for their IDEs.
>”Yet the extinction of Neanderthals, at least, took a long time – thousands of years. This was partly because early Homo sapiens lacked the advantages of later conquering civilisations”

Is it possible we “simply” outbred them? If one population breeds slowly compared to another one of them will be swallowed by the other and not necessarily primarily through violent means.
I understand the parent is wrong and that correcting them was needed, but I find all this hand-wringing about ethics in animal experiments kind of absurd, since it's so obviously fundamentally unethical in the first place (or at least I know of none that aren't unethical). I suspect it's mostly just a defense mechanism to shield the human mind from the trauma of continuously inflicting mass suffering and death, much like how the Nazis established gas chambers as a less traumatic way of perpetrating genocide compared to firing squad units going village to village and potentially developing symptoms of PTSD.

In both cases, zero or less value is attributed to the lives and minds that are being assaulted and extinguished on a loop (though the value is below zero in the Nazi case and sits roughly at zero in the animal experiment case). This isn't entirely fair, since I'm sure most researchers do attempt to prevent animal suffering from being the most utterly barbaric it can be due to ethical rather than selfish reasons, but I think anything that's moderately barbaric or below is still considered justifiable in their minds and I think attempts to "soften" it do mostly fall into the selfish defense mechanism category.

I understand the great benefit to scientific progress afforded by such experiments, but there was some long-term benefit from human experimentation during WWII, as well, and there probably could've been much more future benefit if those regimes had won.
> How this would apply to the Vim / Neovim situation, I'm not sure.

Because year after year, the new version of Perl was supposedly on the way. After they pretty much killed the language by having a new version that wasn't ready and nobody wanting to invest in the old version, they decided to salvage what they could of their userbase. I'm seeing an exact repeat (from the view of outsiders) with Vim.
I played along on the web based ui but for the life of me can't figure out how to check my solution? I see that there is an insert statement given on the github page but I get a 'Statement must be a SELECT' error when I try to execute it. What am I missing?
Similar desires (no back injury, thankfully!) and got into a "Les Mills"-brand "BodyFlow" class at my gym about eight months ago.

Really glad I did! MUCH improved balance, much less overall pain, stronger in lots of ways, etc. Nice little guided relaxation exercise at the end, too. Recommended.
I will prefix this by saynig that:

1) I'm typing this on a laptop now and don't feel the urge to throw up or whatever people say

2) I also have a wireless CherryMX keyboard that I keep in my backpack with me, I enjoy them that much.

There are a couple of reasons that I think other people enjoy mechanical keyboards. First, there's the aesthetic aspect. There are so many options for key caps and bodies and all kinds of other things that can make keyboards genuinely beautiful and a joy to see everyday. Second, many people find satisfaction in the sound and feel of mechanical keys (including myself).

For me it's ergonomics. I'm a pianist and organist as well as a programmer/software engineer/sysadmin/someone who spends a lot of time typing. AS such, I've gain RSI, most notibly tendonitis in my wrist and the finger tendons in my forearms. Before I got a mechanical keyboard, this bothered me a lot more at the keyboard than the piano or organ, because part of classical training is the ergonomics of (piano/organ) keyboard playing. Here's what a neutral posture should be:

> When sitting, your shoulders should be relaxed, your elbows at exactly 90 degrees, a straight plane from the crook of your elbows to the first nuckle (top of the hand flat and level). With your fingers curved down and relaxed, they should be at the bottom of a key press.

Two things to note: First, your wrists are hovering. There's no wrist rest.

Second (and super important) that a bottom of a key press is not the same as bottoming out the key. It's the point at which a key will make a note. A VERY important that you try not to bottom out the key or type "through" the keybed, as this is an impact on your joints and slows you down (as well as stopping motion and other things that important to piano playing but not for typing). This generally is not possible on rubber dome or scissor switches, as bottoming out is the signal. On mechanical keyboards (or at least the types that I use, like MX Blues and the Model M I have at home), however, the \click\ is the keypress, so I don't have to bottom out. Instead I just feel la bunch of springs and a light but definitely actionable feedback.

I will also point out that I have not spent a huge amount of money on mechs. My daily driver at work is a $30 Red Dragon K552[0], which is pretty cheap and has served me well for about 8 months now. I'll also point out that I've heard no noise complaints (and I made sure to ask around after a week) in my open office environment, mostly due to not bottoming out (and because one of my neighbors is a very heavy typer and is much louder, along with the Model M two cubicles over).

You can definitely go much deeper into ergonomics with split keyboards and tilts and all kinds of things, but this works for me.

TL;DR I applied my knowledge of piano playing to typing to alleviate my reoccurring tendonitis and a mechanical keyboard helps with that immensely.

But that really isn't a great selling point relative to extending my editor using, say, Emacs Lisp. The bit I've looked at Vimscript made me conclude it's best to use the editor as it's designed rather than put together rather ugly code.
Best I’ve found is “considering it,” but fingers crossed! Seems like the next obvious step after vector illustration, photo editing, and desktop publishing
This bears repeating:

> In addition, as I've grown, I've realised no company really fully cares for you. At the end of the day, you're just a resource, and if shit hits the fan, you may be one if the first to go. So they don't care about you, so why should I care about them. Give me the right compensation and I'll stay, mess that up, and I'm gone.

Congratulations on having learned this truth so quickly. It took me a whole lot longer to figure this out.

One thing to add: This is true whether you're a developer in the trenches or a senior VP or a C-level executive. Even founders of companies frequently get pushed out by the board if the company has grown beyond their ability to manage it. (This famously happened to Steve Jobs in 1985.)
I think what was ridiculously through this entire process was Boeing blaming someone else. That's pretty much been the issue right from when it surfaced. Initially it was the bad pilots, bad airlines, bad countries and lately it's been the bad software consultants.

However, it's been evident from the beginning this is a fundamental design flaw that Boeing was trying to, inappropriately, use software to make work. Something no software would be capable of doing because software could not make up for the lack of necessary information in the case of certain sensors failing.

Especially one that the FAA tried to pooh pooh as long as it could. It was amazing to watch the goodwill and trust accumulated over decades crumble to nothing in a few hours as the European countries one by one banned the airline from their airspace but did not ground them. It was the EASA telling the FAA to do the right thing. They didn't and then finally the EASA did ground the plane. I really can't remember any other time when the EASA and the FAA disagreed especially this big.

https://www.thejournal.ie/us-ireland-boeing-4538567-Mar2019/
Any MAX production changes could carry significant implications for the U.S. economy. Boeing’s inability to deliver the aircraft during the prolonged grounding has already weighed on the nation’s trade deficit.

The quoted statement is highly speculative, but it's a good indication of why supposedly reputable news outlets and others in positions of societal authority seem to be hand-waving away the seriousness of the entire issue.

Planes have fallen out of the sky, and civilians were killed. These planes should never fly again, regardless of whatever random macro-economy professor says.
I have seen a lot of Twine games, from the simple to the complex, and I have found that for every single one of them there is a point where I stop really reading the pages and just kind of start quickly skimming the pages and clicking whatever I think is most likely to get me through the story the fastest.

Soon after, I usually come to the point where I close the tab and never come back. For all but the shortest Twines, this is well before I've come to an ending.

I want to like them too. But they just resist me getting into them. I've pretty much given up.
From the better link from kevindong:

"A crime has taken place and the detective needs your help. The detective gave you the crime scene report, but you somehow lost it. You vaguely remember that the crime was a murder that occurred sometime on Jan.15, 2018 and that it took place in SQL City . Start by retrieving the corresponding crime scene report from the police department’s database."
The build looks reasonably straightforward. I suspect I wouldn't be able to use low-profile switches with this, but I'll fully admit I'm not well versed in keyboard assembly.

Thanks for this. I'm getting closer to what I'm looking for.
You should think they're funny, as it is often hinted in history and archaic poetic prose that the humorless tend to be the ones to let the serious problems slip by with mere apathy despite knowing full-well about the problem. If you think those pieces not funny, there is a good chance you are the type of person prosed and mocked in historical plays.

No actual offense meant, but this is literally (irony of that word) what you're displaying. If you don't mean to be displaying this, I sincerely apologize, but not knowing the humor and appreciating it likely means you aren't grasping the full seriousness of the situation. That's what the court jesters used to do - bring forth that awareness, when called for. They would jest EVERYONE, King included. They were almost as immortal as the King himself. Only a few were ever locked up and/or killed.

As to your second part, that shouldn’t happen. Animal welfare is highly regulated and monitored. Every university has strict rules about animal tests and every experiment has to be evaluated by a panel to make sure the animals aren’t mistreated AND that any limited suffering is justified by the value of the data.

If any PhD is making up ways to kill their animals, then they either didn’t pay attention or work for a crappy lab.
Like a lot of tragedies, it's really hard to tell how much the side effects of something like this are attributed to the mistake itself and how much can be explained through modern communication networks (social media) amplifying everything.

Is the Boeing mistake really that bad, or is it because this is the first such aviation design mistake to happen in our post-2010 everyone-is-online world? Remember that the tails on 737s used to just...fall off back in the '90s.

For the record, I don't think the 737 MAX should have ever been cleared to fly with the current version of MCAS. But I can't help but believe that there had to be some boneheaded designs in the past that cost hundreds of lives that we just don't think about today.

In any case, I hope Boeing has learned from this and revised its engineering processes to go back to its previous prestigious roots. I also hope against hope that we will finally see some executives go to prison for approving this.

I switched to vscode recently from emacs and was embarrassed about how much more productive I was, almost immediately.
Has software had its materials science moment? The pioneering DeHavilland Comet failed due to unexpected stress fractures. The aviation industry changed markedly because of it with years of testing preceding the introduction of any new material or process. Boeing took the lead, DeHavilland never recovered.

My cynical view is that little will change in this era.
I'm not sure I agree with the deepsteg project. From the website :

"Fighting crime online

Steganography is used by criminals to send messages to other criminals secretly. It is used by terrorists, pedophiles, and other criminals. Spreading awareness and providing tools to expose hidden data can help fight crime.
"
I can think of several reasons people might use steganography, most involve personal freedom and safety.
