Sweet, Cameron Browne is the tech lead. He's designed a whole bunch of abstract games (his boardgamegeek page[1] credits 71 games to him).

I looked at the language and db reference and it looks pretty robust for abstract games, as someone who's made a pathetic attempt at coming up with a generalized system to facilitate putting my game designs out there myself in my spare time.

Might see if I can port a couple of my designs over to Ludii at some point.

I don't have to read beyond the first paragraph to know that this'll be a rant about 'white supremacy' and how 'evil people I don't like shouldn't be allowed on the internet'.

Feh.

It's a real shame that Hacker News is polluted with these kinds of articles. You simply can't escape the insanity anymore.
Does anyone feel it is a little strange to have a government entity mandating interoperability details on every level of the tech stack? See POSIX for an example. I don't think it's strange at all.
LOLNO.
>Is that somehow configurable from Linux distribution's setup, or it will require user to manually set a BIOS password? (and it requires the user to set a different bios password. if the user sets the same password for fde and for bios, then back to square 1)

Not yet? And when I said "modern computers" i should probably clarify I'm thinking about more enterprise grade computers. Such as Thinkpads.

Thinkpads also recently got the feature to set the password from Linux userspace. But I forget where I read that, and where the patch is located :)

>That sounds interesting. Though it still sounds totally impossible for the vast majority of users.

It is. But this is why threat modelling is important. If a realistic threat scenario is someone replacing your motherboard, then tpm2_totp should be something you setup.

Listing all possible attack scenarios and assuming any generic distribution protect fully against them is a pipe dream. There needs to be some compromise between usability and security.
Nowadays, in this internet based economy, feels that DST don't actually saves no energy at all.

Ask HN: I'm 15. I would like to make websites for money. How do I get clients?
I know how to make them, and I've made a lot for personal use and a gaming group I'm a part of. Everyone else my age is starting to get jobs - why not use the web dev knowledge I've already accumulated?

My issue is on the business side. Why would anyone choose me - or even know it's an option - instead of someone professional? I can't just make a portfolio site and call it a day.

I'd appreciate some advice. I'm in the UK.
I don’t think aquaculture refers to fishing, but rather to growing plants without soil.
Not necessarily. If this is for a desktop computer you can just leave the USB plugged in and the computer running, as normal. The threat model isn’t too different between that and a normal home/office computer - in both cases you have to trust the physical security of your home/office.

For a laptop, you’re already lugging it around anyway, just remove the USB drive whenever you shut it down.
we aren't here discussing about whether the used pattern is correct or not, it's clearly not. But that's not the scope of the question.

The problem with this logic, is that Apple isn't really a "business" in this case. Epic and Apple aren't really "business partners". Apple is an unregulated privately-owned quasi-government entity with none of the responsibilities or checks on authority that a real government has.

You can sue the Post Office, lose your case, and know they can't retaliate by stealing all your mail forever. You can sue the Department of Labour, lose a case, and still have the right to hire employees in the future. You can sue the Fire Department, lose a case, and still reasonably trust they won't burn down your house. You can sue your local Power Company, lose your case, and still trust that they can't unilaterally ban you from ever buying Electricity again.

But you can't ever sue Apple, over anything, ever, no matter how evil Apple is, no matter how heinous Apple's activity may be. Because no matter how valid or correct your complain is, no matter what happens, they'll just black-bag your entire digital existence in retaliation.

Apple is acting like a Government, Apple is ruling like a Government, but Apple has none of the oversight or accountability we'd demand from any reasonable Government.

Folks are thinking of Apple like it's just a video game console, when the more apt comparison is Comcast or AT&T. Apple shouldn't be allowed to control what does or does not live in the App Store, for the same reason that Comcast shouldn't even be allowed to decide what websites or services you do/don't use.

Extremely self-deluding.

Because once you accept you are susceptible to a bias, and you know that a person fits that bias, -what do you do-? You can ask "if this person was (not this bias) what would I do", but -can you be sure-? Do you have an exactly equivalent data point to compare against? Of course not; everyone is a bit unique. Can you be certain, if you pass on the person, it was due solely to the heuristics you've built up around resume and etc, and not you reinterpreting them through your bias? Can you be certain, if you hire a person, it was solely due to the heuristics you've built up around resume and etc, and not you overcompensating to try and account for your bias?

It's going to influence you. It -may- not change the outcome, but if you aren't concerned about that, no matter what steps you take, then you're deluding yourself.
There’s nothing I want to install on an iPhone or iPad that’s not on the App Store.
That's the opposite of compliance. Not only they didn't get to change their own product to match some standard, they went straight against the spirit of the law (add more electronics and yet-another source of waste).

I am surprised you haven't been downvoted. People don't want to hear that they are sick and that they are in part responsible.

Really, it's astonishing how sick Americans are on average and how it isn't getting better. Now we are telling people that it is cool to be obese, that medical treatment is preferable over nutrition and life choices, that being around other people is dangerous, that binge watching is preferable to real life, and that it doesn't matter anyway because diabetes will be cured by science "just around the corner TM".

But humans can become accustomed to anything. Being overnurished and lacking nutrition is now the norm and people either don't realize it or don't care.
Obesity is not a problem caused by a calorie imbalance but of hormonal imbalance

That was when it went off the rails and never recovered imho, others are mentioning Borlands business practices which were not the best at the time. Technically it lost direction as well, it never developed a response to Java, .Net and the web, and still doesn't, though you can actually develop web applications with Delphi to, with 3rd party components and they work very well.

I'm really glad that my employer is flexible about the time I start working. That way, whenever the clocks are set to/from DST, I just start work an hour earlier or later and my sleep remains unaffected.
Thank you for not judging. In April this year one Sunday evening I realised that I've just spent about 40 hours over that weekend tinkering with my mutt and notmuch configuration instead of practicing smoking that beef roast as I wanted for some time

Monday morning I did several things:

- ordered mac mini M1 to replace my ThinkPad with Arch

- ordered iPhone to replace my rooted Motorola 5g Plus

- filed a ticket at work to switch myself from company issued precision 5540 with Arch to company issued 16 inch MacBook

- promised myself to never go that way again

I still am experiencing cravings sometimes. I saw someone made a Wayland port of dwm and immediately wanted to try it. Took a bit effort to distract myself from that and read a book instead.

No one is saying loss of life doesn't matter, but if we're wanting to figure out "which disease is deadliest," the result should help you in your answer to the question "if you had to get one of these 2 diseases, which would you rather?" Factoring in population and age is absolutely important to knowing how deadly a disease is.

There's other factors too that may bump in favor of the 1918 flu being less deadly, like the improvements with modern medicine. But JUST comparing 2 numbers is not a valuable metric on its own.
The pay isn't really all that low when you factor in all the OT tech companies typically require. Also, the retirement packages are typically much better outside of the world of tech companies.

With journalism we've seen the profession decline in expertise and standards over the past decades. Mostly because too many publications hire anyone who is willing to generate articles that generate clicks.
That was my first thought, it seems weird to throw a mandate on proprietary licensed hardware.

It could lead to very weird outcomes if usbif decides to throw its weight around for political (or geopolitical) reasons.
Yes, you should use a higher quality USB drive for this, or possibly an SLC NAND one with high write endurance. And make a backup copy or two and store them in faraday bags in a safe.
The difference between the two mindsets you describe is not that events have changed our expectations: it's that the former was a kid's fantasy and the latter is an adult's reality. Any informed, serious adult at the time could and did have similar (albeit vaguer) concerns along the same lines.

Decades before the modern form of Big Tech, there was plenty of serious conversation about the dystopian potential of our technological present and future. Every trope you can imagine was well-represented in these conversations: centralization, panopticons, loss of user/customer control; hell even addiction to online communities was well-trod ground in at least fiction.

These hazards are just inherent to these technologies. I won't go as far as claiming there was no way to avoid them as a society, but as a baseline everyone expected to be grappling with these issues.
Here's the relevant injunction:

> Apple Inc. and its officers, agents, servants, employees, and any person in active concert or participation with them (“Apple”), are hereby permanently restrained and enjoined from prohibiting developers from (i) including in their apps and their metadata buttons, external links, or other calls to action that direct customers to purchasing mechanisms, in addition to In-App Purchasing and (ii) communicating with customers through points of contact obtained voluntarily from customers through account registration within the app.

> Tim Sweeney is high as a kite.

I think not... keep shilling for Apple harder.

> Here’s where I think Sweeney garnered the legal “go fuck yourself”. Sweeney is arguing that Apple, which won the lawsuit, should interpret the court’s anti-steering injunction in a way that pleases Epic, which lost the lawsuit. That’s not how things work.

Is he really trying to argue that the "winner" and "losers" are absolute in this case?! Wild.
From the Github profile, OP is French, in which "entreprise" is "enterprise".
Most likely they are playing along out of a desperation for views.
I hear what you're saying. In this specific case, we had a default success message string that would normally be displayed if a custom message wasn't provided, so it would've been fine.

In general, however, we like to avoid any uncaught/unchecked exceptions whenever possible. This is for two reasons: first, when we get an NPE, the user gets a generic "Oops, something went wrong" type error message, which is useless for them when they call support and don't have an actual error code; second we have a pretty extensive in-house error logging framework that we prefer to report errors on, since it makes debugging the issue easier and gives us aggregate data on what parts of the code have been reporting more issues lately (and probably need a rewrite, like in this case).

Thanks for reading!
> vote with your wallet and don't complain how "most devices" don't give you feature you're not ready to pay for.

I believe that the ability of a device owner to exercise the same level of control over it as the company that manufactured it is a matter of consumer rights, not features.

> What is proprietary about Apples chargers?
> The only proprietary part is the lightning connector.

> I charge my MBP from a Lenovo power brick

Way to avoid the issue at hand, can you charge your iPhone using your Android charger/cable?

Laptop chargers aren't the problem, phone chargers are. As you saw, USB-C solved the problems for laptops, it's about time we solve it for phones too.
You keep on defining things in terms of cultural artefacts that are simply not consistent even in one area, let alone worldwide. A 9–5 work day, a meal called “lunch” that concluded by 1pm—well, I seldom eat lunch before 2pm (and 5pm is not uncommon), and I know people who don’t have any meal that would match the description or schedule of “lunch”.

9–5, 9–6, 8–4, 7–3, 11—7, these are all common in different places, and outliers with far less overlap—perhaps even none—are common. And that’s just for office sorts of work; count other types of work and especially asynchronous remote work and the disparities get far more extreme. I know full-timers that will be working from 6am until before 3pm, and others that will be working from 6pm until 3am. And latitudes and seasons affect things drastically too.

Look, time zones give you some hints, but they’re really pretty weak hints.
> People don't have 10 year old cables and chargers around.

Yes they do, why wouldn't they? I have mini/micro USB chargers and cables that are older, same for USB A/B cables, same for network cables.

Only cables that get tossed are Apple lightning cables because they are crap quality and fray within 2-3 years, and other non-standard crap (pre-2010 proprietary phone/camera chargers like 30-pin and the like)
Only fancy thing you want is dual compressor, so one compressor for the fridge one for the freezer. (Otherwise they do sometime things like heating one compartment with the lightbulb....)

Oooooook... So we start off with misinformation and insults. The problem here is you think I don't know what I'm talking about, and that's not a good assumption. And you're being overly pedantic in order to find flaws in what should be an ordinary conversation.

1. Yes, the gas will expand indefinitely eventually. That doesn't change anything about the way nozzle's are designed.

2. Obviously everything has cost constraints. That doesn't change the fact that within financial and material limits, you want to extract all the energy possible. A larger bell does not equal mor energy in all cases. In fact, once you have your exhaust in a non-expanding perpendicular flow, there's nothing left to extract. Alfo, fuel is run through tubing around the bell to cool it down, it's not generally wasted to be coolant, you use pumps to run it through tubes in the bell to cool the bell, heat up the fuel, and that adds pressure to the fuel as it then cycles back up and exists into the reaction chamber.

3. Yes, you 100% can design your injector to not make the material not impact the bell. I said sides to indicate where I'm talking about, no need to mock a simple word choice, I never said they were ther for ornamentation, so you're just being rude.

4. Just because exhaust has a presure doesn't mean every particle impacts the bell, or you'd have a ring of exhaust flow with nothing in the center. You can inject your material so that it flows down the center. Note, I'm talking about the ceramic material injected into the flow as described in the article, NOT THE FUEL. I think you think I'm talking about fuel this entire time, which is not correct.

6. Yes, you just explained how a rocket works in the same way I did after trying to tell me how stupid I am.

7. I was talking abut the ceramic material injected into the flow, not the engines. Nothing I described applies to ion engines. Please mke sure you understand the comment before you rup into someone.
Yes exactly! Now suppose timezones aren't a thing, and "5pm" is fixed. How do you coordinate? Is 1pm right around lunchtime, or is it in the middle of the night for them? You'll end up converting between "their 5pm" and "my 5pm", which is just timezones again but worse.
> but by that time it’s likely the iPhone will be portless.

Seems exceedingly unlikely unless the law changes by then.

> Why let the platforms eat our lunch? Maybe we should just be giving them a snack, or a little treat, but even that would just be for "services rendered", not as a condition for our meal.

I actually do think the platforms do a whole lot for developers; far more than they get credit for, in my opinion. For that reason, I think the best option is for them to unbundle their app store developer offerings into pieces that developers can pick & choose from. (eg. as a developer, would you be willing to share 4% extra for a smoother payment experience for users?)

I have previously mentioned this in another HN comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28369205

Sadly, the described scheme doesn't protect from hardware backdoors. Let's say someone confiscates your laptop, installs a backdoor that sends all keypresses using GSM, and returns it to you. Now the attacker has all your passwords.
> Maybe I'm jaded by my American government,

It might not surprise you, but there is a wing of politics where their goal is to make government as dysfunctional as possible to drag everyone towards a certain political ideal they have.
Apple didn't lower the price after removing the charger.
But they discuss this possibility in the article? Including arguments from both sides. Why is it on wired to make a call here? Do you want them to editorialize?
One nice and welcome example of consumer-friendly legislation, btw: The EU prohibited mobile operators from charging voice and data roaming fees within the EU. So, now on holiday in Spain, say, you can just keep using your mobile contract including free minutes and data. (A typical deal is <10$ a month for unlimited calls, unlimited SMS, and, say, 3 GB data; or 15$ for >10 GB data.)

When traveling outside the EU, it's still best to buy a local SIM to avoid the ludicrous roaming charges, but there's no need to do that within the EU anymore.
