The board game Cashflow is closer to reality than Monopoly, especially the 202 version, which provides for paper assets options, as well as loss of investment properties to acts of nature. A good way to learn basic investment evaluation using play money.

Dating apps cater to men ~9-10 and women ~4-10. Many women would rather have sex once every two weeks with a polygamous man they consider a "9" than sex every night with a monogamous man they consider a "5". This has always been true but dating apps have enabled it at scale in society-transforming ways.

This isn't just speculation, it's from data that OKCupid blogged and then un-blogged when they were acquired by Match.

Blockchain (as in a Merkle tree with some way to decide on a particular path to a leaf as the canonical "correct" chain) is useful in plenty of things, eg git.

Blockchain as in the above with a decentralized decision function (proof-of-work, maybe proof-of-stake) is less likely to be useful outside cryptocurrency.

Typically when people talk about "blockchain" they mean the latter.
I get your (and parent/grandparent's) points but this line of thinking leads to unnecessarily cynical and pessimistic thinking rather than recognition that success/failure are inherently probabilistic.

Yes, plenty is out of our control and luck is often ignored. Yes, some people get really lucky and some people get really unlucky and it sucks. However, this doesn't mean that "skill, faith, guts, & determination" have nothing to do with their success. These behaviors/traits increase your chances at success and positive outcomes, period.
The fancier term for this is "The Quarterback" problem.

It happens at every Pandemic game, but there are ways around it. Even something as simple as a total-game-timer helps. Another rule that helps is enforcing the "consent" part of the rules (for 2-player interactions, including the one where you're allowed to move other players), and ensuring autonomy is respected in the game, even if its a sub-optimal move.

+1 to secret information/hidden objectives. I guess Pandemic:Legacy uses that?
If I wanted to change all links from gray to blue/underlined, the best practice there would probably be to use a different utility class (text-blue-500 and underline) and update my templates/partials/whatever.

I think for your specific example, I would use the `@apply` directive to apply certain utilities to all links.

I've used Tailwind on large, complex apps with around 50 screens (so far), and using extracted components or partials hasn't been a problem at all with keeping things in sync.

```
a {
@apply text-gray-700;
}

// now becomes
a {
@apply text-blue-500 underline;
}
```

The documentation goes over this pretty well, I think.

I use Safari so that someone captures user issues that result from developing for Chrome. Other people on the team use mostly Firefox/Chrome so we have coverage of all the major browsers we target.
We need a review site linked to hard identity + purchase verification + ability to see all other reviews by that reviewer (how many things do they review, in what categories, and are they potentially biased? Also, for complex products, do they have any authoritative credentials that might make them subject matter experts?) + ability for other reviewers to review reviewers, sort of like a peer rating system...
This is strange as economists agree pretty much across the board that one way of making an economy grow is to increase population. It stands to reason that one way to shrink an economy is to decrease population.

Note that I am making no comment how that growth or shrinkage affects the quality of life in that economy but when looking at total growth population change is correlated.
>Park Place you have to land on it first.

Not necessarily. The games rules include an auction that is frequently removed in house rules. What's supposed to happen is if the player who lands on the space (Player A) doesn't buy it from the bank, the property is auctioned to all players.

Maybe no one owns Boardwalk yet, and Player A doesn't want to try and get the Park Place/Boardwalk monopoly. Or maybe Boardwalk is owned by Player B but Player B doesn't have any cash, so Player A thinks they can block the monopoly while paying less to the bank. Or maybe Player B does have the cash but Player A knows that B is desperate for the monopoly, so they want to drive the price up and force them to pay more.

There's more to than just rolling dice and landing on spaces.
Magit, together with maybe Org-mode, is one of the Emacs packages that make it very hard for people to migrate off Emacs, to other tools, ever.

Yeah, all issues in the backlog should be sorted by priority. But a separate priority flag is still useful to indicate critical bugs. A high priority issue means you should drop everything and deploy a hotfix ASAP. This is not communicated by just moving the issue to the top of the backlog. But no need for multiple levels.
I created a parsing scheme to address a variety of static analysis concern. https://sparser.io/

You don't have to use the parser libraries I provide. The important thing about a tool like that is the data structure is provides.

Here are some key benefits:

1. The output is table that can be used as a tree. Each parsed token knows what its parent is and where the containing parent ends which allows for walking the tree in an algorithmic fashion.

2. Since the output is a table of arrays it is the fastest non-bytecode parsing scheme to access.

3. The output structure is language agnostic, so provided a proper parser it can represent any language, any combination of languages, and any combination of languages in a nested fashion.
Yes. The primary issue with string theory I have is that it seemed for a long time to suck in large numbers of very talented theoretical physicists because it was a fashionable field - I saw many contemporaries of mine who went into theoretical physics go down this route.

It's not just experimental physicists and the big budget costs that comes with particle accelerators. Theoretical physicists of course cost a lot less than the LHC but they are quite a scarce resource nonetheless - especially very talented ones - and I wonder what could have been achieved had many of them been working in different areas of physics or even in different fields altogether.
As a counter-point, there's also the tale of the FPS, where the person who has spent 10,000 hours mastering the game will invariably hear that he's a cheating, hacking n00b when he beats the same guy 20 times in a row due to "luck" despite not using any cheats, because the other guy is an idiot with no strategy who can't even aim.
You seem to have a very flippant attitude on this.

Backdoors in Android and iOS costs lives. There are many governments who today kidnap, torture and kill citizens and even non-citizens based on compromised phones e.g. Jamal Khashoggi.

And to have companies like Correlium enabling and profiting from this is utterly reprehensible. They aren't altruistic or making the world safer or being selective in who they sell their technology. They are simply the modern day equivalent of a shady arms dealer.

So short aside - zero copying (locally; it will always be a copy in distributed Erlang) is possible as is with large binaries. But those can (and have) created memory issues themselves (by keeping a large binary around when you're only referencing a small part).

For other types, it's not possible without either adopting Rust's memory model (but that's a huge set of tradeoffs to take on; completely change the language), or giving up the GC benefits of everything being process(stack) allocated, which would entail a whole new set of tradeoffs (and probably not be much faster).

I, personally, don't see that direction as a plus, as such.

Not sure about your third/fourth point; that's Erlang's behavior, no? One actor being busy won't starve others, for CPU or IO. It's pre-emptive; the VM counts reductions and moves on (and not really sure why, given that, you'd want user controlled pre-emption; I never had an issue with one actor starving others, unless calling out to some C code or something, and even that is mitigated with dirty schedulers). Detecting infinite loops could be optimistic, like Dialyzer's typing, I think, but could never be 100% because, yeah, halting problem.

And as above, totally agree on typing, though I personally like Dialyzer's optimistic approach (I just wish type specs were enforced).

But, per the original, I am totally on board with more languages supporting actors...I just was curious what 'a better Erlang' would look like. Some of your bullets seem "a better language (for my use case)", and not really aligned with Erlang's goals.

This makes me wonder what is happening during an extreme tooth ache. During those times when I have had a bad tooth it is like my mind is in slow motion and the ability to think is gone.

> For technical reasons, we cannot divide a game pack (for instance, a season pass, a pack containing the base game and its DLCs, or a pack containing a whole series of games). As a result, you would get a refund for the full pack and, as a consequence, the full pack will be removed from your account.
If you apply for a refund for a DLC, and it was not purchased as a pack (bundled with the base game), we can issue a refund for the DLC itself.
If you refund the base game, but also purchased DLCs separately, we would also refund the DLCs linked to that base game.

(from the FAQ page for the new policy, https://support.gog.com/hc/en-us/articles/360006129837?produ... )

I'm intrigued by the internals here. GOG does indeed sell some things both bundled and individually, like the "Hollow Knight + Soundtracks" bundle compared to "Hollow Knight (no soundtracks)" / "Hollow Knight Official Soundtrack" / "Hollow Knight Gods & Nightmares DLC Soundtrack".

It is not obvious to me why an account that purchased the bundle should be treated differently from an account that purchased the three individual offerings. (Well, in this case, the bundle is cheaper, but that's not always true.)

Amazon has this problem too. If you buy an mp3 from them, they'll discount the cost of the digital album that mp3 was technically offered from. If that album exists as multiple SKUs, only one SKU will see the discount. Be careful! And Kindle MatchBook will likewise only match if the editions of the ebook currently offered and the physical book you purchased coincide. Was a new edition released with a new foreword? You need to buy another paper copy if you want to be re-eligible for MatchBook. Even if there's only one ebook offering, for the current edition -- even if the old version of the ebook is automatically updated to the new version -- your old purchase stops qualifying you for MatchBook when the new edition comes out.

Doesn't that make what is or is not science somewhat up to chance?

Suppose you develop a theory in order to explain the known results of experiments K1, K2, and K3. You have tuned any tunable parameters to make sure you theory is right for K1, K2, and K3.

Then you calculate what results you would expect from your theory in other situations, S1 and S2. S1 and S2 were not taken into consideration when you developed the theory.

It seems strange to me for whether or not your theory is "science" to depend on whether or not someone happens to have already looked at S1 and S2.

Suppose on Earth the correct results for S1 and S2 were already known when you developed your theory. Then we discover there is intelligent life on Mars and their scientists have developed the same theory at about the same time, but no one had ever looked into S1 and S2 there until after the theory called attention to them.

So the theory is not science on Earth but it is science on Mars? Does it cease to be science on Mars when we inform them that we knew the correct results for S1 and S2 before anyone on Earth or Mars developed the theory?

If someone had come up with General Relativity in 1680, a few years before Newton's Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica was published in 1687, would Newtonian gravity have not been science? (I'm assuming that at the time the small differences between Newtonian gravity and GR would be below what they could detect experimentally).
In chess I can often win with dubious gambits against players of relatively equal skill, but this would not be true in higher levels of play. In this case going 'off-meta' has distinct advantages between opponents of equal but mediocre skill.

> On a side note, if some bored person out there wants to make a huge splash in the CSS community, figuring out a way to target a specific DOM element, create the equivalent of an AST and specify a "dictionary", which would be a utility-css framework (tailwind, tachyons, basecss, etc) and finally reimplement the targeted DOM element in the chosen framework would be amazing.

This is quite doable for us at Protoship (we've built both a design-to-Tailwind CSS+HTML converter as well as a webpage-to-Sketch Chrome extension). It is a very appealing idea - to be able to recast any webpage into a Utility CSS framework, but I'm curious to hear about situations where it would've been useful in commercial work.
It's not necessarily bad. There are pros and cons to all css approaches. Atomic classes definitely have their fans. It's more a question of which pros and cons matter to you.
I would argue that a law that is so seldemly referenced that all copies are lost ceased to be valid.

Yes, you may have more than one card in your system, but in all likelihood you aren't repeating the HTML for that card more than once, rather you have it in a template of some kind which is called. So while you may have more than one card on your site, you probably don't have the template for it defined more than once. (at least ideally you don't)

For those cases where you do want to extract that code, Tailwind makes that easy to do.

Tailwind is a weird thing and like I said I really thought it was insane at first. But after rewriting a site in it in a few days I have to say it is better than the standard semantic CSS by a mile.

(Hi dijit!)
I've recently enjoyed a lecture series on string theory [0] and it seems to me that string theory is primarily a series of observations and thought experiments. The original context of string theory was in the understanding that, if we are exploring quantum mechanical ideas about waves and particles, then mathematical ideas about strings and waves can be used to simplify some of the computations.

String theory does not need to be connected to the heart of group theory [1], although it might be. It doesn't need to be connected to 26 dimensions [2] or 10 dimensions [3][4], but we know that [1][2][3][4] are deeply connected already, and so if it relates to any of them, it must relate to all of them.

We should be careful about the degree to which we get "lost in math", I suppose, but only in that we need to avoid wrong-way reductions [5]. We should be careful to not let string theory lead us to generalizations that are beyond experiment. As the article says, we have falsified some of the low-energy predictions of some string theories [6], and we should continue designing experiments that can challenge theoretical predictions.
