This is another good example of a "small" game -> in Overcooked there's no lore, no adventure, no story to connect to.
There's no universe either.

My IT department manager at a previous job was Mormon. He was a big Star Wars geek and could code with the best of us (but never had time to do so in his position, too many meetings). I didn't know for several months he was Mormon. His only tells were some self-censoring (like saying "cheese and rice" or "cheese and crackers" instead of certain common blasphemic exclamations) and he had six kids. Really cool guy. He eventually moved back to Utah to work for a tech startup there (the tech scene is actually pretty big in Utah).
BOTW has the controls issue too, absolutely— its scheme is a bit of an oddball compared to other modern over-the-shoulder action adventure games, and that's made it hard for me to jump back in after a period of playing more conventional games like AC, Spider-Man, God of War, etc.

The story though? Lol, BOTW has none. You just show up and chase whatever catches your fancy while the princess hangs out at the castle doing all the work keeping the monster at bay.
Smart contracts are Turing complete. They could do literally anything and even if you are an expert, you probably wouldn’t catch it.
The PDFs here have a lot more information: https://sam.gov/opp/af490b568d2a438498afa1e80bce63e5/view

A few takeaways; they intend for such an engine to eventually support long duration human spaceflight (going to Mars.) The propellant for the NTR engine to be liquid hydrogen. One of the problems DARPA anticipates with using such an engine for such a mission is needing to store liquid hydrogen longer than the present state of the art.

The PDF doesn't seem to mention it, but I think the Advanced Cryogenic Evolved Stage (ACES) is probably relevant to this project. Does anybody know what kind of duration they expect to get from ACES? I'm not sure but I think it's weeks, not months.
i was going to say spaceteam. not at all the game they were looking for but absolutely a game everyone should play.
1) Hard to say why, but they do. It maybe comes down to "politics over policy".

2) This also happens, but it's a bit harder because you need a wider variety of people to agree, and federal-level politics get a lot more visibility in the news.

Consider that referenda are generally uncommon and that you have to vote for a whole politician, not individual policies.
Unreasonable of you to expect search to be good in a Google product.
last Advent of Code I took to putting asserts for every invariant in my code. most of my time was spent debugging, not the first write or running code. adding so many asserts provided a number of benefits:

* asserts are a compact form of documenting invariants both expected and produced, making code easier to reason about
* each assert serves as a tiny unit test with exactly the necessary cases
* most importantly, asserts catch logic bugs when code doesn't produce the intended results

P.S. that has me thinking, there should be a tool to transform asserts into testing. The tool would have another keyword "expect" in addition to "assert", for preconditions. With both preconditions and postconditions, individual functions can be automatically verified with a prover or a fuzzer! The tool could also check that preconditions are met at each call site, without having to write and rewrite unit tests for each call site!
So much faith in the government of Montenegro, eh? Not optional anymore means I don't like it.

Also, what is the incentive as a previously paying customer to return? I see none. It does not seem to be loyal customers but current ones. So someone who subscribed last month or a few days ago (for however long) gets more benefit than me a multi year former user. OK, so where is the incentive to make me a returning customer?

I understand your critics against touchscreens and they are justified. Your car doesn’t have a good touchscreen interface from what you say and also from my experience when I drove the corollas from the car pool. However it’s not because many cars are bad that the technology is bad.

A touchscreen from an 20 years old Archos MP3 player is extremely bad while an iPad Pro M1 is very good.

I suppose that depends on what you mean by popularity.

* CodeCombat is gamified programming lessons and seems to be reasonably popular with kids.

* Human Resource Machine teaches assembly language programming and was popular -- it even got a sequel, Seven Billion Humans.

* Robot Turtles was a kickstarted code-teaching board game that became popular enough to become a ThinkFun staple (you can tell because of how cheap it is).

I live on disability and bought the van I live in with cash so do not tell me you need credit to buy a car.

What I am saying is that people should be spend less, save their money, and never going into any kind of debt, and ignore their credit score.

I helped a friend move out. They loved to buy stuff and never use it. Anyone who came over to help left with some decently priced trinkets. I left with an instant pot, sous vide wand, console table, a bag of small electronics, expensive markers and pens, and other stuff I surely forgot. I couldn't believe my good fortune and felt I had to compensate them. But they refused. We had performed an extremely valuable service just removing the items, the value of which was immaterial.
You are right. So cars should slow down until separated roads are built that don't interfere with pedestrians (natural humans) and bikes.

TL:DR, A multiplayer FPS that relies on traps and deception more than "action."

I've been around long enough to have played both Doom and Duke Nukem over a phone/modem. I remember with Duke Nukem especially, the ability to place laser tripmines plus chat made for a really thrilling experience, it was as much as about trying to decieve the other person into going the wrong way as it was having good aim.

I feel like Among Us, et al, of course has this trickery part, but I don't think I've seen the two combined. Kind of reminds me of Spy v. Spy from the olden days of Mad?

Yes, GDPR is very clear until it's not. Tell me for example how would you respect the right to be forgotten for web server access logs? The information "IP x.y.z requested /index.html at dd/mm/yyyy" is PII under GDPR. Meaning you have to a) declare that you are collecting it, b) be able to produce all data for the person using IP x.y.z upon request, and c) be able to delete all log rows relating to x.y.z when they ask you to. Unless you have built your system from ground up with this requirement in mind, chances are you are in breach of GDPR.

> But not I also cross a red light on foot from time to time and I do not think it should be made legal. Regulations that leave a freedom what to prosecute are not bad by design.

This is not comparable as private citizens are able to petition and sue under GDPR. Hence, there is no similar discretion of what actually gets prosecuted as for jaywalking. It would be comparable if I, as a driver of a vehicle, was able to take any jaywalker to court. Which would be indeed complete madness.

In the days of NCP, before TCP/IP (aka ipv4), the original ARPANET TIP manual "Users Guide to the Terminal Imp" (originally written in 1971 by William Crowther, one of the authors of Adventure) documents on page 5-4 the procedure for connecting an input and output socket of one TIP to an input and output socket of another TIP, through an unsuspecting host, so you could chat back and forth directly between two TIP dial-ups, without actually logging into the host.

https://archive.org/details/bitsavers_bbntipADA0eTerminalIMP...

It went something like @HOST #, @SEND TO SOCKET #, @RECEIVE FROM SOCKET #, @PROTOCOL BOTH, making sure the sockets were different parity so as not to violate the Anita Bryant clause with homosocketuality:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12422813

You could also add the octal device port number of any other TIP user on your same TIP after the @ and before the command, to execute those commands on their session. (See page 5-7, "Setting Another Terminal's Parameters".) BBN wrote such great documentation and would mail copies of it for free to anyone who asked (that's how I got mine), you couldn't even call it security by obscurity!

Lately, I've been looking for a fantasy RPG to play with my brother that fits the following criteria:

— third-person (like Kotor, The Witcher, etc.)

— open-world (like Skyrim, The Witcher, etc.)

— using unit targeting (not shooter) mechanics for spells (like Pillars of Eternity, Divinity: OS II, etc.)

— online co-op

I think the combination of Skyrim, The Witcher, and Pillars of Eternity would be perfect. Most games I've found hit 3 of the above criteria, but not all. I've always loved the idea of Skyrim's open world and lore, but prefer the 'dice roll' hit mechanic (as opposed to 'were you aiming at them when you acted?').
The Model 3 and the Model Y has one two. I would expect the Model X to have one as well. I’m not sure about the old roadster but the lotus interior was not high tech.

Disaster ensued because he did the steps out of order.

Some notes from someone who's attempted GTD for 15 years. My trouble with it is that it really hasn't worked when your lists become large.

> When you first start to use GTD you should take an hour to write down all things you want to—or have to—do.

An hour is not even close to being enough. A whole weekend may get you to 50%.

> If it’s something that you want to remind yourself about later (“I really didn’t understand this article, I should have a look at it again in two weeks”) it should go into your calendar or your tickler file

The problem is that my tickler files become bloated with these, and it becomes a daily burden to open that day's file and try to decide. If I deferred something till later "because I couldn't decide what to do with it", there's a 90% chance I'll defer it again. These are items I want to work on actively, and not put in the Someday/Maybe list.

> This is where the some day/maybe list comes it. ... This list should be reviewed weekly along with the rest of the system as described in the weekly review section below.

Perhaps many people don't have as much aspiration (or imagination), but my Someday/Maybe list is huge - hundreds of potential TODOs/projects. Reviewing that every week is a huge burden, so it's not done. I treat Someday/Maybe almost as a garbage dump - I don't look at it, but my brain takes comfort that I've captured it somewhere.

It's got to the point that I now have an "intermediate" list in between my active and someday/maybe. This list contains items I must do, but I've placed them there because I lack the bandwidth. Whenever I finish a project, I move items from this list to the "Active" list. I need this intermediate list because I know once something goes to Someday/Maybe, it's practically lost in all the noise.

One of the problems with GTD is it doesn't address how to focus or prioritize, nor what to ask yourself during the review. I've found making a Do Not Do list to be far more effective (as in, at the beginning of the year, I list projects that I commit to not doing until I'm done with the ones I do want to do). Listing goals for the year and asking myself weekly/monthly what work I did not tied to those goals is helpful during the review.
I want a language learning VR game where the goal is to interact with AI's such that you understand their instructions and they yours. Very much as if you were a child having to learn while playing with adults.

This is great! I hope some of this work goes towards building a good free android sdk for debian. Last time I checked, the debian sdk was stuck on a really old android version, and the android rebuilds project relied on prebuilt compilers from google (hello ken thompson attack).

Speaking of, how do they deal with java dependencies? Last I checked gradle there was simply no way to tell it to build things from source, instead pulling hundreds of prebuilt java binaries, with native libraries and all.
...huh. Well, I am going to try this.
Writers put significant amounts of work into these articles. They post them onto a website that requires funds to host and maintain and run. And you're calling it garbage because they ask for come compensation for this work that many people enjoy or find interesting? People don't consume food for free, why should they consume entertainment for free? If you don't want to pay, fine, but that doesn't mean the food is garbage, or this website either

Between 2019 and 2020, I've created a few free one-time ProtonMail accounts, which I used for creating throw-away Apple IDs.

In fact, I just created one to verify. It's still possible. See for yourself:

pass: testdonotuseforseriousstuff

All I had to do was to solve a captcha with bicycles in order to prove I was human. And the dialog for recovery e-mail / phone had a "Maybe later" button.

I live in Switzerland, maybe the impossibility of anonymous account creation is a legal issue in some countries ?
A game based on "The Richest Man in Babylon". Depending on difficulty, you might be just poor, or maybe indebted, or maybe a slave. And you need to follow good financial principles to get yourself into a rich man. All the while you are lured by various things you can spend your savings on, leaving you penniless.
I think CodeCombat is pretty widely recommended specifically for teaching coding to kids. Not sure if it counts -- it's more coding lessons that are gamified in overall structure, and also the lessons themselves have gaming aesthetics (e.g. "Write code to move your hero to kill these orcs and open treasure chests").

There's a ton of resources for this area now though, I'm not sure I can point to any one thing as a standard.
Second Life was once this grand experiment. I recall you ended up with weird things happening virtual real estate tycoon Anshe Chung being chased by a horde of scripted dildos chasing her avatar around. All the money in the virtual world still can’t save you from trolling.

I fully understand what they record is.

Let me ask this, why in your school with 365 classrooms would you expect 2 new IQ records to be set with 145 new students. With a normal distribution, you'd expect all of those new students to be within one standard deviation of 100.

> The chance that the new student is the one with the highest IQ is 1/145

Why do you think this is the case?

I'm one of those people and in my opinion it would be hard to make a solution that fits all. The reason why it works for us is because we control the design system and we know the needs of our app and users. It works because it's somewhat bespoke to our use-cases.

It simply is not possible to represent the realm of all possible native UIs within a common json schema. We can do it because don't need the realm of all possible UIs. We need a 20 different elements recombined and reused across all our screens.

Which is also a strength because now we can leverage our limitations into delivering a consistent experience across our app.
It's even more insane and hilarious with 4 people trying to coordinate things. I personally found the best way is to assign everyone a station based on their preference/skills e.g. one friend loves playing with shields, so they are always in charge. Then find out who can steer the best and give them that as permanent role... granted it can be slightly less fun than the chaos, but I find utter chaos eventually gets old after you've died 100 times on the same level because everyone's running around trying to control everything.

I would like to play an inverse of a typical Zelda game. You start off as a strong wizard/warrior but every time you use your powers you get weaker. Your items break and can't be repaired. The difficulty ramps up as you can no longer rely on overpowering enemies with gear or spells.
