If wanting to live with and care for my family is entitled, then I'm entitled. I do feel entitled to my life, liberty, and peaceful pursuit of my happiness.

Why do you feel the need to use violence to control where people live and work? You don't even know me, have no relationship with me, yet you want to control where me and my family live.

> And I want cross-platform, but don't want to get mad along the way and I want to focus on the gameplay and not platform specific code. (and did not want to use unity for various reasons)

Which platform specific code? With a compatibility layer and a cross-platform graphics API we're talking about a vanishingly small amount of code.
I've been avoiding Go as much as possible as a poor use of engineering time, but I'll reconsider if they fix generics and error handling and comprehensions. Java 8 isn't outstanding (the JVM is!) but it's about where I put the bar for a tolerable language.

This is a good write-up, and the most interesting point is about self-efficiency. It kills me to see software engineers not use multi-paste or multi-cursors. But I agree this is “human nature”. I have totally proven this to myself when I tried “lazy bastard” play through (the rule is once you basically get the first assembling machine you’re not allowed to craft in inventory). It wasn’t annoying, it was actually much more pleasurable and less stressful, because I set up automated process for everything. That’s what Factorio is about, and it is a very educational game (also a severe time suck).

Years ago, I managed one of the larger performance computer hardware forums on the web (its still around, albeit having changed owners a time or two since I left).

We knew pretty well that most of the audience was kids, and knew most of the marketing people from the major chipmakers. The brands were just starting to wake up to the idea of community engagement at the end of the tech magazine era / start of the Youtuber era, and as best I can tell there were no signs of any of today's astroturfing behavior - yet all of the tribalism was there.

Its certainly more influenced now, but even back in the day everyone wanted to justify their own purchases by insisting it was the best possible thing ever.
Or that women are less likely to need antibodies to clear this infection. Not everyone develops antibodies for every disease, the immune system is super complicated.
yeah, now we call it fedex, very clear what that means ;-)
I disagree. I think there are tons of people who won’t touch Go because they can’t fathom programming without generics. I think lots of people will use the language and interact with lots of existing code and realize how far one can go with respect to type safety without ever touching generics. Unfortunately, I’m also afraid that this sea of newcomers will bring all of their paradigms to the Go ecosystem which is made possible by generics, and frankly the consistency that makes Go so productive will be lost. I like generics, but I’m afraid of the cost.
If it's a legal loophole for paying less tax, that's fair game. Everyone does it. There's no one out there giving their extra cash to the U.S. treasury. Not that it's needed because they can just print unlimited amounts (within limits of what system can tolerate).

True. But much like you can use external libraries in your game, you can search and copy (or take inspiration from) designs posted online.
Hyperbole much? People do take calculated risks with the lives of others - again driving is a dangerous activity, you take the lives of everyone in your car and those around you in your hands while driving. Even chefs are responsible for not giving people food poisoning. Because of our hyperconnected world, we depend on people taking risks around us constantly.

Additionally, NYC had 500 deaths because its approaching its peak - soon most people will recover and be immune to this disease, then its gone forever. But the economic costs - the careers and education opportunities lost to regular people will impact their whole lives.

Satisfactory is interesting in its own way. It'd be easy to initially think that its the better/easier game to get into for someone who hasn't played a game like this before, but I'd argue the opposite. The three-dimensionality introduces logistical insanity that is startlingly difficult to wrangle, and the first person viewpoint makes planning the factory floor very difficult. The terrain is also a constant challenge, whereas the terrain in Factorio is generally pretty easy to work around.

But, the world design is totally incredible; it begs you to explore every nook and cranny, and its non-random, so you can link up with friends and share secrets you've found. There's far more super-fun goodies to unlock, like the hypertubes or bounce pads.

Its just different, and I think someone who enjoys one would enjoy both. I tend to tell people to start with Factorio, though; its simple, yet infinitely deep. After about 50 hours in there, you'll gain a new respect for some of the simplified mechanics and fun-factor of Satisfactory; 50 hours there, and you'll gain a deeper respect for the nefarious complexity of Factorio. They complement each other perfectly.
I mean for a "personal" amount of oil, I suppose a backhoe would do. But, to change the front month price, you have to actually store a significant fraction of world oil production (1-2%?). I don't think a backhoe is going to cut it. Then you have to somehow make sure it doesn't plume into the ground water, which is impossible absent very specific geological features or somehow lining the world's largest open pit mine with an impermeable barrier.

fairly sad. Factorio is fun, but it's a pale shadow of the experience of making even relatively simple machines work better or differently. Even getting a 2-stroke motor that has a dirty filter running again is immensely satisfying.
That's not a stupid question, it's an excellent and subtle point. In your example, one of those two is much less baity than the other, so that one is preferred.

What the rule means by "original title" can be any one of the candidate titles that an article itself provides. That can be the main heading on the page, but often that is misleading or baity, especially with media sites. The HTML doc title, as you point out, is often a good alternative [1]. Often a subtitle is better than the main title. Other good candidates can be the URL, a photo caption, or a phrase from the opening paragraph.

When the original title is misleading or linkbait, HN's rule says to change it. In such cases it's far better to replace it with representative language from the article itself [2] than to make up one's own language for it. On HN the principle is to let the content speak for itself, so we try wherever possible to avoid putting words in an article's mouth. When undoing the dirty work of a headline writer [3], put the author back in charge. Don't knock headline person off their perch in order to grab it yourself.

When the obvious options for a good title all fail, you can nearly always find one in the text itself. In fact, it's strikingly rare for media articles not to include, somewhere on the page, an accurate and neutral phrase that says what the article is actually about. I wonder if this is not coincidence, or good writing, so much as SEO. In other words, the very same forces that make headline writers churn out bait to entice users may be driving authors or editors to include accurate summaries to bait search engines. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to hunt for the latter to replace the former.

In cases where none of the options for a title produces a good one, including scouring the article body, it's ok to make up a title as a last resort—again, using representative words from the article itself as much as possible.

There are still Classic Visual BASIC programs out there that haven't been ported to VB.Net or C# yet because of how huge they are and how hard it is to code that they cannot afford to hire developers to do it for them. The same is true of many old languages like COBOL.

Gresham's Law is frequently misunderstood. It's not accurate to say that "bad" drives out "good" in a literal sense. It's more like "less desirable" driving "more desirable" out of circulation. The "more desirable" is highly valued, not competed out of existence. It's just not in circulation.

In the case of coinage, gold coins are not in circulation. But they are still more valuable than other types of coins. A monetary system usually consists of both "less desirable" money (e.g. paper money) and "more desirable" money (e.g. gold, Bitcoin). I explain the law in the context of Bitcoin and fiat in this article:

https://bitflate.org/post/2019/11/24/bitcoin-will-not-be-a-m...

If we have a system where "bad" drives "good" out of existence (not circulation), then the system will surely have problems.

Humans can kind of make some assumptions based on context, but it's really just a poorly defined, vague query.

What if you walked into a store and asked an associate for a shirt without stripes? What would you get?

Probably some further questions for clarification. What about checked shirts? Floral prints? Plaid? Do you want no pattern at all? T-shirt? Polo shirt? Dress shirt?

Granted, the AI results are particularly bad because they give you the one thing that you specifically didn't ask for, but that's also the only information you provided. Defining a query in terms of what you don't instead of what you do isn't going to go well.

What if you went to google and said "Show me all the webpages that aren't about elephants"? Sure, you'd get something, but would it be anything useful?
Perhaps, but would you really say "Hi, I'm wearing a shirt without stripes"?

It's a completely artificial construct. Simply the fact that this hacker-news entry is the #1 search result shows that real human people do not perform this search in significant quantity. But we can quantify that with data to backup the assumption [1][2]. When people want to buy a shirt without stripes, they do not describe the shirt by what it doesn't have.

In fact, it's trivial to cherry pick a random selection of words that on the face of it sounds like something a human might search for, but it turns out never occurs in practice. Add to that the fact that the term is being searched without quotes [3], which results in the negation not actually being attached to anything.

Do you go to a store to buy it along with your Pants Without Suspenders, Socks Without Animal Print, and other items defined purely by what they don't have?

America is strange. The idea of censorship seems to rile up more than the practicalities of it. Facebook is hugely censored, and has been for years. There's a distinct lack of gore, of child porn, or even just porn in general. There aren't torrent links to download the latest TV show or video game. And, dare I say it, it's better for it.

I would have said that for any statically typed language.

It simply leads to more robust software because compiler rejects large set of incorrect programs that would otherwise end up in production. Your test coverage has to be much larger just to verify that your program is sane on the most basic level.

Rusts compiler is even stricter than most.

" the agents let the boxes of equipment be released and loaded into the trucks."

Ok... the FBI said everything is on the up-and-up and the trucks are heading out.

"But I was soon shocked to learn that the Department of Homeland Security was still considering redirecting our PPE."

Oh no! Our hero has suddenly divined that the entire Department of Homeland Security is planning to swoop in and intercept the trucks (that the FBI just sent on their way.)

What is our hero going to do? Who can save the masks from the nefarious DHS who, I'm sure, were even then sending agents out in black helicopters to finish the seizure that's the hapless FBI agents bungled?

"Only some quick calls leading to intervention by our congressional representative prevented its seizure."

Thank god! Where would we be without our auick-thinking administrator? A single phone call and he has saved the day!
But, it wasn't without personal cost...

"I remained nervous and worried on the long drive back, feelings that did not abate until midnight, when I received the call that the PPE shipment was secured at our warehouse."

His angst and concern is moving. He deserves a raise. Where would we be without our hero?

In all aspects of life unanimity is an excellent tool for making decisions. Abstention (in lieu of outright dissent) helps a lot too. Learning to negotiate in a non-adversarial way is an undervalued skill.

Slight more contentious is that it seems not unreasonable to expect unanimity from the Supreme Court itself.
> efforts should be focused on creating some kind of a online reputation system

Yeah I guess it comes down to monetization strategy and how loyal/sympathetic the early adopters are.

It's funny because it's frequently mentioned how Google's tracking is what enables it to give such personalized search results, but often I question how effective that really is.

For instance I question if Google has some profile on me and shows results they _think_ I will want to see (e.g. news related), and thus leave out other results. If it works that way then I'm frequently seeing the same websites in my results and effectively being siloed and shielded from other results that I may find interesting.

Their new strategy of adding snippets for everything has truly gone insane. I search a query for "covid us deaths" today and had to scroll about 3 viewport lengths down to even see the first result.

What happened to just a plain list of blue links?

From a marketing perspective, I feel like DDG needs to change it's name or use a shortened alias. "Google" is an incredible word as it's easy to spell, remember, and it's short. Interestingly they own "duck.com"...

> everyone wanted to justify their own purchases by insisting it was the best possible thing ever.

This post-purchase rationalization is a frighteningly powerful cognitive bias. Users can get quite hostile even if you simply suggest that they should have bought a lower-end model from the same company, and will readily lie to themselves about their usage patterns to justify their purchase of a device that is only superior in a few irrelevant microbenchmarks. And that's before anything like brand loyalty gets thrown into the mix.

There's an implicit notion around (mostly) progressive circles that big companies are inherently bad. Some are, some are good, lots are in the middle, and the same goes for small companies.

With unemployment pushing 20%, this impacts all businesses, and there's no reason to assume the number of employees has that big of an impact on their ability to keep paying workers. This really isn't the time to pick and choose which companies are the "most deserving."

Fortunately many states are suspending unlawful detainer and eviction actions until the crisis is over and people can get back to work.
