There's a few comments on here with earlier "3D platformer" games and while there were earlier "3D" games, they're not "3D platformers":

- Knight Lore (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23667891): that's isometric rather than 3D poligon. This is the problem with 3D though, it can be conflated to mean several different things:

. 1. 3D polygons: like Quake and later, and generally what we now think of as 3D rendering

. 2. Stereoscopy: like 3D cinema and the 8-bit 3D addons for the Master System / Sega Mark III (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9hrcd25-kU) and Famicom (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Famicom_3D_System) -- as it happens I own both of those 3D systems and they're actually pretty good for 80s tech

. 3. 3D isometric: like Sonic 3D Blast (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Oon2HKYqYI) and Knight Lore.

- Sentinel (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23667789): At least this game is 3D polygons however it's not a platformer. There were plenty of 3D poligon based games before Alpha Waves. I remember playing a game called Articfox on my Amstrad CPC 464 (https://www.gamesdatabase.org/game/amstrad-cpc/arcticfox) back in the late 80s and being shocked that 8-bit system with 64k of RAM had the capability to draw polygons. Even before that there were 3D maze games; going back to the CPC, Sultans Maze (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3x4b4k1pPRE) was released in 1983, often came bundled with the micro computer and that's not even remotely first of it's kind. None of the aforementioned are platformers however.

- I, robot (https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=rsaarelm): While that's got platform elements, it's really more of a shooter. Games similar would be Space Harrier and Starfox. Where this game stands out is the puzzle platformer elements but they're more a mechanic of specific levels than the defining quality of the game.

So it's fair to say Alpha Waves is the first "3D platformer" but where '3D' means 'polygon' and 'platformer' is the game genre; but other '3D' games existed before.
Sorry for the confusion. Forgot to mention they only appear after a while. After you've played 5 games (if I remember correctly) they'll start to appear.

By choosing white supremacists, you've indicated the exact lack of understanding of what the term bigot means. It's not just a combination of the various *isms and phobias. It's the inability to accept new viewpoints - which is equally prevalent on both sides of the political spectrum. The left is just as unwilling to engage in dialogue or entertain the idea that not all of their views are inherently 'good' as the right.

I can't relate at all to white supremacists, but I can tell you that they're more willing to actually discuss and argue their point of view than the 'shout until you get you way' ultra left wing.

> Not sure how you could misread that, unless you wanted to

Not everyone interprets the same inputs the same way. Especially not in your case when you claim to pick a 'more common' definition but carefully walk around the actual dictionary definition of both Oxford and Webster. Using that as an excuse for a thinly veiled accusation is a pretty good example of bigotry. I disagree with you, therefore you throw a thinly veiled accusation that I'm 'one of those' instead of actually engaging in debate on any level where you're prepared to lose. Why argue on merits when you can accuse the other person of deliberately misreading because of agenda.

Stripe and PayPal for Unsupported Countries
If you are a freelancer or the owner of an online business who is not based in one of the countries supported by PayPal & Stripe, then you must have experienced how challenging it may be to receive payments in exchange for products and services. This forces people to rely on alternate channels for payments which may result in heavy fees, compromised client experience, and added responsibility on the receiver’s end. (hint: what recently happened to Payoneer)

Stripe is only available in about 31 countries. But the internet has no boundaries. Therefore no one should be deprived of the needs required to launch online business or work remotely.

Business Launch Hub, an internet company, has addressed this pain point by offering entrepreneurs, freelancers, and small business owners with a service that enables them to have access to a Stripe & PayPal account for a small flat price from anywhere in the world! The company aims to handle the end to end process from company formation to bank account creation within the UK. They aim to empower individuals and entrepreneurs by allowing them to prosper in the online business space through easy and affordable access to the tools needed.

“We’re a company bred out of empathy for aspiring entrepreneurs. We know how cumbersome it is to manage international payments from a unsupported country. We converted our pain point into a simplified process that gives anyone access to a Stripe & PayPal account from anywhere. By working with authorized and official platforms, we guarantee you a seamless access to your approved business accounts while handling the end to end sign up process at an affordable price.”

The founders of Business Launch Hub encourage aspiring entrepreneurs, freelancers, and business owners to reach out to them if they are interested in knowing more. They believe in fostering a community which empowers others to launch their businesses. You may check out their website as https://businesslaunchhub.com.

As a former NJ resident for 10 years, people wonder why I have such a large disdain for them. You see, it's not just 1 particular thing that infuriated me, but over time, it was systematically clear that NJ does not have your back. Medical bill protections, business insurance laws, filing complaints, unemployment... etc. Each instance is deserving of its own post, but I will save that for later.

When compared to NYC, people often cite NJ as being "a good deal" financially. However, I beg to differ. You get what you pay for, and NJ isn't an exception. NJ is good to play it safe, but when the world becomes a complex system of 100s of points of failure in your life, you can be certain that it will not work in your favor.

From a cultural perspective, NJ really epitomizes "let's find the best deal." If their residents have self selected themselves by that line of reasoning, what do you think will happen to each respective system, which was built by them? Shortcuts here, not paying attention there...etc. You get the idea.

Point is, NJ is called the dump of NY for a reason. It's not because of one particular reason, but after a while, you'll start to notice how they are inept as a government.
Without distracting from you central point (which I very much agree with), please read the science around hydroxychloroquine, not the news. It works best taken with Zinc, and early when symptoms first present.
It's not about 50% globally. It's like 50% of .SE, which is itself less than 25% as large as .INFO. He's guessing, and he's wrong. That's the point of my comment. I don't care what you do with the observation; he brought it up, and he's way off.

(I don't think it's weird that he's way off; I'm not criticizing Mockapetris, just correcting the stat. But your vehemence demands a direct response from me, and I'll provide it.)
Thanks a lot :-). Hit me up at contact@online-solitaire.com if you have any suggestions or feedback for the site.

The article started off convincingly "On January 17th...", but i gave up after "....the world’s most trusted public health agency, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,...".

If the sentence had've been "...the world’s most trusted public health agency, [in The United States (well, maybe)]", I would have perhaps considered reading more.
This same thing happened here in the UK (with similar results). Scientists scared of being ostracised if they spoke against the government. So they just went along with all the dumb decisions. We also have an group of scientists ‘Sage’ who are meant to be our best minds, who gave similarly useless and inconsistent advice because it was politicised.
The data we have on hydroxychloroquine is now convincingly negative-there's just a ton of misinformation and it's become a political issue. But when some institutions fail you get widespread mistrust of both institutions and experts, which maybe is part of the compounding problem.

Kinds in Haskell seem to be evolving in the direction of controlling the representation of datatypes in memory. * (also called Type) is the kind of types whose values are "lifted": they can be lazy computations which might cause an infinite loop, throw an exception, and so on.

There are also kinds for types whose values are "unlifted", meaning they really correspond to actual values in memory, not lazy thunks.

Right now the language for expressing unlifted datatypes is quite limited. Hopefully it will be expanded so that we can write "strict Haskell" more easily.

No, the conclusions are not valid. This person doesn't know the most important experimental results in the field, doesn't understand why modified gravity is both theoretically and experimentally unsound, doesn't understand that dark matter research is already not a mono culture, doesn't understand that detailed investigations of gravity potentially diverging from the inverse square law already exist and that new studies are planned.

This is the equivalent of someone reading some nasty things about C and claiming we need to investigate python for kernel development.

No. This has been disproven by the only good studies we have. Even with zinc and early, it has not been shown to have any effect.

> they make it even harder for Europe to ever catch up

You've stated this as a fact, but it's not self-evident. There are obviously cases where some degree of "protectionism" makes sense. For example, you probably wouldn't want to let yourself get into a situation where another country supplies 100% of your food, if you could help it. As an extreme case, if you can produce all your food locally and it only makes your food 1% more expensive (than the tariff-less case), that's very likely a great trade-off.

Some degree of protectionism can make sense in certain circumstances. I'm not claiming it necessarily makes sense in this case (could very well be a terrible idea), but I think you'd need some evidence or reasoning behind the claim that it's definitely a bad thing for Europe.
Thank you, INTPenis.

You can also do it with PGP smartcards like the open-source NitroKey [0].

For a more analogous equivalent though, there's the tpm2-pkcs11 project [1] that uses anything conforming to the TCG TPM2 spec [2], which includes a surprisingly wide variety of hardware, including many motherboards. My XPS 13 for example has one.

What I'd really like to see though is something that uses the TPM for host verification rather than client verification. I'd love to be able to ensure that the only way for a machine to give me the host key I expect is for that machine to be hardware I own running verified software (e.g. verified by Secure Boot with a custom key).

Covid-19 Global cases surge past 10M
IDK the US that well, but if you don't have coercitive power over politicians what can you do. I'm aware that CDC has been criticized for other stuff as well, but in the end they seem to not have that much power.

In my country (Spain) it has been a shitshow. Everyone who warned about the upcoming situation was ridiculed and/or insulted in a coordinated effort between government and media. Now the same people is being called captain after the fact. It's pretty sad to see, and I've been subject to this myself despite not being a public figure.

Everything has turned into a political shitshow. When you have medical professionals in TV insisting that the government is right, and that this is just a flu, when you have your lead epidemiologist in TV with absurd claims, when you have your OSHA-spanish-equivalent in National Police fired for buying masks (and the list goes on and on), then how can anyone trust the institutions.

I mean, my regional government which is corrupt, and sometimes hilariously inept has done a better job. What the *@^- man.

We shouldn't end up paying for software by the number of features it has. We should end up doing it for the amount of value we get from it.

Roam is a niche market and so is always going to be more expensive than more commonly used software, because there are fewer people to pay for the common expenses - same reason I have to pay more for books here in Denmark than I have to pay for English books - the cost of creating them gets stretched over fewer people.

Just realized that my first answer might not be the most helpful :-P. If you're still interested in becoming better at design, it's all about learning-by-doing. Much like development.

I spend a lot of time on https://dribbble.com/ when I initially started designing and that's often where I go to find inspiration these days as well.

Besides that, I'd suggest to doing as many design-related projects as possible. They don't have to be big. They just need to force you to go through the process of going from thought to an actual design. A lot of people practice design by re-designing already existing apps.

The tool of the trade nowadays, when it comes to websites and apps at least, is https://www.sketch.com/, which I can highly recommend.

Hope that helped a bit more.
Totally. I'm in a similar position (wanting to buy a house, but concerned at the insane prices), so I totally get you. Maybe coronavirus will accomplish it. Something something market, irrational, solvent.

So, the Unilever thing is a stock move, that really only occurred because the shareholders in the City didn't like it (being removed from the FTSE would have been very bad for their share price).

My understanding is that Nissan (and all the car-makers) rely on frictionless trade in goods, which probably isn't going to happen. I believe that they will probably invest in the UK for the domestic market, but we'll see.

Again, nothing has practically changed in terms of trade, and will not until January 1st of next year. We'll see I suppose.
Yep. "As far as we know..." is usually required as a qualification.
I can think of 3 main use cases for them:

- databases

- file systems

- hash maps

The first 2 are not something you code everyday, so if you go for that, installing a dep doing it is not a problem.

The last is usually included in all languages.

Why would you need them available in all languages for?
The hydroxychloroquine study I'm referring to has less to do with the data and more to do with how the FDA behaves regarding the drug, where they gave the drug an emergency use authorization based off of what seemed like pretty blatant interference from the executive branch. If the drug had ended up working, maybe their reputation would have taken less of a hit, but that wouldn't have changed how inappropriate that authorization was, and how it demonstrated that you could get a drug approved if you had enough political power from the president behind you. That's not a message that's making me optimistic when we look at vaccine development right now - that core trust that the agency operates on science/public health instead of politics has been shaken.

As an aside, you've put the cart before the horse here. When you have multiple competing theories, you don't study them separately. You design experiments which will (hopefully) measure different results depending on which theory is true. This is exactly what is happening in cosmology. The experiments have ruled out MOND and their like. New results will rule out more dark matter candidates. Surprising results will lead to new theories.
