The only score that's saved in your high-score list is the size of your Swiss Bank account. A citizen's car is always located in the nearest parking garage. When you need your first college educated citizen (College Professors must be college-educated), the easiest way to get one is to command your Pirates to "rescue" a bunch of college-educated folk from international waters.

Then again, maybe the size of Swiss Bank accounts is really all that matters for most island-nation leaders and the best measurement of success :-) I do think that the game's sense of humor is among the best attributes... seeing what parts of the game the designers decided to be "realistic" vs "cartoony" is almost the fun of it all.

According to this paper examining Southern Californian English, https://pages.ucsd.edu/~aritchart/RitchartArvaniti_SpeechPro..., uptalk is about twice as common in women (42%) as in men (20%). Though at 20% it seems common enough in men that reasonable people could debate how gender-specific it is.

How in the world could vaccine rollout have been any faster? This is the fastest a vaccination program has ever been run, for anything, ever. We're at 60% population vaccination after SIX MONTHS, which is absolutely insane -- polio was slower, and they were allowed jet injectors! Vaccination is going as fast as possible, and policy was implemented to minimize all mixing of people, not just Vax/unvax.

> I don't think it's racist to say that using AAVE might distract from a presentation given to a wider audience.

If you actually say “using African-American Vernacular English” and not (say) “using incorrect grammar”, it’s arguably not racist to describe the expectation that way, though expectation itself is arguably racist depending on the specific circumstances of the presentation and other factors.

Similarly, to the extent that rising terminal pitch is a feminine-gender-coded norm for declarative sentences, decribing the problem as rising terminal pitch is itself not sexist, describing it in terms of masculine-coded norms of expression is arguably sexist, and independt of how the deviation from expectation is expressed, an expectation of conforming to masculine-coded expression norms itself may be sexist.

HN is nominally an IT related site and "systems" usually means errr "systems" ie hardware or the things that run on the hardware. That could be games but that's just a special case.

Basically we are now at the point where a mathematician in a similar situation would dig out: empty set: {}, one: {{}}, two: {{},{}} ... ... yay - numbers, "now assume a spherical cow" and before you know it things get really weird.

IT isn't quite so clever but we do have some basic definitions and "systems" means: "systems" (####TODO: Fix recursive definition.) Systems can be designed and a Systems Designer might get involved in that activity. The more money that is paid to a vendor the bigger, better and more important the system - if Oracle is involved you will know this to be absolutely true. Games might be the focus of a system that is considered part of "systems."

A Games System Designer sounds like way too much fun to be involved in systems and so probably cannot exist.

Anyway, add Game to the title and we're all good. "Bestiary" is a nice touch but not quite good enough!

Growing up my mom took me to Bible Study Groups. They started out as people filtered in with small talk, then the designated leader would say "alright everybody ready to start?" and somebody would inevitably pull out an acoustic guitar to begin a few simple songs of praise and worship that most attendees sang along with, as newcomers smiled and learned the songs (or sometimes became visibly uncomfortable, depending on their personalities). After this, someone (usually the person who was hosting, but sometimes deferring to someone else more prepared/knowledgeable) would read a passage from their previously agreed upon version of the Bible. It would then go into a discussion of either the religion's official meaning of the passage, the etymology/history of certain terms or ideas, new ideas, or set up a situation where they go in a circle and everyone puts in their two cents. Then there would be a group prayer, or another circular round of "what would you like the group to pray for?" followed by a social period (usually with food), and finally ending at either a specific time or just whenever everybody left.

I would like to find something like that, minus the religion. Topic of the day and cover songs or original compositions, sharing of each other's lives and struggles, food.

"If parts are not being added back into the design at least 10% of the time, not enough parts are being deleted."

I am struggling to understand this one.

Is he saying that you should remove parts on a routine basis, like a "remove parts/processes" meeting every month and then re-adding them back in once you find they're needed.

Or is he saying when you get a list of requirements, remove parts/processes related to those requirements and then re-add them once you find they're needed?

Or is it something else entirely?

> With an R0 value of 6, you're statistically likely to infect 6 other people. Why is that acceptable to you?

Because I have been "statistically likely" to infect N other people every time I had a cold, a flu, or any number of other viruses, most of which are fatal to at least some segment of the population.

Moreover, those N other people can get vaccinated if they're worried about this particular risk. It's a great vaccine. It essentially prevents death from SARS-CoV2. If they don't, that's their choice.

Being alive is risky. You can try to eliminate all of that risk, but you will be dead long before anyone puts you in the grave.

Excellent comment.

Regulation of broadcast was justified on the basis that the airwaves were a scarce and shared public resource. In looking at a coherent, pragmatic, and equitable basis for regulating online content and surveillance, the notion of a common public good and interest might be a good anchor.

In discussion, the notion that public awareness, attention, mindshare, and understanding are themselves a common good ... gets to some interesting (and yes, scary) places.

Interests in privacy, concerns over widespread or highly targeted manipulation, and similar concerns could possibly form the basis of coherent limits on tracking, surveillance, and "information sharing" on individuals and groups. Open, transparent, and ethically guided research ("who decides" being university and professional ethics review boards, as is presently largely the case in human-subjects research) could be excepted, but would require those components.

> For many people, being rationed to 1500kcal per day would be much less invasive than a foreign substance being forcibly injected into your body. Annoying and restrictive, yes, but definitely not invasive.

I'm sorry, but the government telling you how much food you're allowed to eat, 3 times a day, essentially for your entire life is so obviously more restrictive than a vaccine mandate. Have you ever actually counted calories, or eaten 1500 a day for months or more on end? I've done both, and it's incredibly disruptive. In studies, people are not very successful at complying with calorie restrictions. How does the government enforce this?

I could understand an argument that both are too invasive (though I'd disagree), but not that controlling what people eat is less invasive. The vaccine is safe, has been studied, costs you nothing financially and very little in time. It does not cause you to upend your entire lifestyle for something you do every single day for as long as you're alive.

If you’re happy with literally any longer term impacts here’s one documented though very rare one: “Most patients were treated with a single course of intravenous immunoglobulin, and improvement was noted within 8 weeks in most cases. GBS-associated COVID-19 appears to be an uncommon condition with similar clinical and EDx patterns to GBS before the pandemic.” https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32678460/

I bring it up not because it’s a significant risk, but as a demonstration that immune responses themselves are one of the risk factors associated with viral infections. Critically though there are a lot of rare conditions that individually may not be a factor but collectively are.

Hospital-acquired infections for example aren’t directly caused by covid, but start talking about 100’s of thousands of people being hospitalized and it’s a common risk.

As to that study, people under 17 aren’t even close to representative of the larger population when it comes to viral infections. It’s an important consideration but people 35-44 while generally considered low risk are literally at 100 times the risk of death as 4-14 year olds. Youthful immune systems are simply vastly better.
I prefer what Solzhenitsyn said:

"What about the main thing in life, all its riddles? If you want, I’ll spell it out for you right now. Do not pursue what is illusionary - property and position: all that is gained at the expense of your nerves decade after decade, and is confiscated in one fell night. Live with a steady superiority over life - don’t be afraid of misfortune, and do not yearn for happiness; it is, after all, all the same: the bitter doesn’t last forever, and the sweet never fills the cup to overflowing. It is enough if you don’t freeze in the cold and if thirst and hunger don’t claw at your insides. If your back isn’t broken, if your feet can walk, if both arms can bend, if both eyes can see, if both ears hear, then whom should you envy? And why? Our envy of others devours us most of all. Rub your eyes and purify your heart - and prize above all else in the world those who love you and who wish you well. Do not hurt them or scold them, and never part from any of them in anger; after all, you simply do not know: it may be your last act before your arrest, and that will be how you are imprinted on their memory."
If that were true then the FDA would have actually approved them rather than issuing an emergency use authorization.

They haven’t.

How do you known it isn’t less safe? There are no studies comparing the safety of the methods. Only arguments to that effect.

I don't think one has to takes sides on the manager vs Apple conflict to ask a much more important question:

"Why is this newsworthy to The Verge and Hacker News?"

At any given moment, several thousand people around the world are likely going through identical complaints with their employers, and have been for multiple decades. What makes this more relevant than any random similar example from a boring business outside Silicon Valley, where a manager might have a similar number of employees and say a similar thing to one of them? Is there a reasonable belief that this is being encouraged by Tim Cook himself? No? Then why is it "Apple does $Thing"?

Corporate HR and the legal system will work this out and get it right for a reasonable % of cases without involving the whole world in each one.

Predictability to me seems more a consequence of than a contributor to simplicity. Though there are very simple systems (e.g., three-body problem, double-pendulum) which exhibit highly unpredictable behaviours.
You are failing to account for identity politics.

I think it's far more likely that the expressed reasons you cite are, for many (I'd bet 15-20% of the population), just rationalizations for the underlying reason which is that being anti-covid-vaccine is now a part of some folks political, cultural, and/or religious identity.

And it is damn tough to break through something like that. That's doubly true when political and religious leaders are actively pushing people to not get vaccinated.
That's all ages, including those who cannot get vaccinated at this time. Of adults, the number is as I stated.

> The land is so expensive that it doesn't make financial sense to waste it on low margin affordable housing.

It doesn't make sense, period. The market is making the ration decision. The city could always buy the expensive real estate and turn it into slums—sorry, "affordable housing"—but this is clearly not a reasonable allocation of limited resources. You want to ensure that everyone has a home, fine, I agree that this is a worthy goal. But those homes don't need to be located in the most expensive areas on the planet. You'd be doing those in need of such housing a favor by relocating them to less expensive areas on the outskirts of the city and concentrating on improving transportation to and from downtown.
This is well thought of in that sphere:

The dilemma here is that authoritativeness is considered a masculine trait in our shared cultural ontology, even (at least traditionally) in feminist philosophy.

Arguably this may be more true today than in prior generations, given the trend among more developed nations for gender roles to sometimes bifurcate even more strongly than before along some dimensions, an unexpected consequence of women being more free to shape feminine gender identity. (It's often a group dynamic, not necessarily something individuals are doing deliberately.)
I don’t get “nihilism” from any of that. It is just a healthy attitude about life and death, an attitude that is apparently not even close to universal in our culture.
