T1, I randomly was thinking of this just last night. I put so many hours into that game and loved the mods. Putting laser turrets behind shields/walls to protect them was so cool. I think it was the first fighting/building game I'd played (FPS at least, I loved AoE/StarCraft/etc) and I wish I could go back to those late nights playing with friends.
I wouldn’t recommend it but I start my frontend projects in the defunct enyojs boilerplate. It’s gone now but Enyo had Onyx. A fully featured component library. I’ve never seen a component library as tightly coupled to a JavaScript framework. Sadly, as mentioned, enyojs is no more. Saying that reactjs, the successor to enyo is an adequate replacement. Some of the team made a react fork called Enact Enyo+React that brings back some of the great onyx components. But I haven’t used it as there are many other component libraries available in the react ecosystem to choose from.

It’s also tempting to go jamstack to start a new frontend project. Some of these boilerplates are very bleeding edge however and you will be spending a lot of time learning the convention of each individual boilerplate. I’d be hesitant to start a new jamstack project.
I want to play a game that's like kerbal space program (in terms of technical detail), but where you instead run a national weather agency like the ECMWF or NWS/NOAA. It would be a simulation-like game where you invest in research and operational elements (installing sensors, running super computers) all while trying to improve the 'skill' of your forecasts in time to save your population from different natural disasters.

Each level could have different regions, terrains, and specific disasters you need to optimize your forecasting system for (e.g. hurricanes, fires, blizzards, etc.)
Sounds like you are an overachiever. The big implicit assumption of GTD is that, while it makes you more productive, there is still a limit on how much you can take on. Workload is not specifically addressed, but implicitly the overflow will go to the Someday folder.

I think the answer to this problem is not any productivity trick, but to aim for exponential growth of your business, career, etc. so that Delegate becomes the primary workhorse instead of Next Actions. Prioritize actions you perform and projects you start so that they are conducive to a long term self-sustaining increase in your productivity. And accept that you may have limited success/luck in unleashing the exponential and that some projects will forever stay out of your linear reach.

Have you played The Outer Wilds?
Did not know this:

“ use | (or anything else!) as your delimiter rather than /. sed takes the first character after the command as the delimiter, and / will show up in things that you want to replace pretty often! Writing gsed 's|/path/file.js|/path/file.ts|' is nicer than gsed 's/\/path\/file.js/\/path\/file.ts/'.”

Thank you!!!
A race track building/management simulator. Start with a small gravel loop, organize race events and bring in money. Bit by bit expand until you have an epic Nurburg Ring-sized complex.

Of course, there must be a tie-in with some racing game that lets you test drive your track if you wish.
I so wanted to like the Witcher, but the controls were absolutely nuts. Actually maybe not that bad (ahem, Outer Wilds). But for a casual gamer they were not intuitive and were extremely forgettable. Plus you couldn't easily go back to the little training dojo.

Good controls and quick review/tutorial seem to be overlooked opportunities for improvement that would dramatically lower the bar for casual gamers who want to play more games but quickly get frustrated by any kind of friction.

("Previously on" or self-evident state is increasingly dead even in TV/series so I guess it's not surprising it's disappearing from games too.)
Yeah fantasy EVE online
Godus, but without the freemium model/churn that defined the actual release, after asking for funding from pre-orders via Kickstarter. Or even just Populous ported to a modern platform that I could play it again on.

I've often wanted to play Populous again, in the decades since I had an Amiga, and was anxiously awaiting Godus. But on first play it pretty much embodied everything I hate about gaming these days.

Frostpunk may be close to what you’re looking for. It’s a very punishing survival sim where you build up and manage a small village in a world (I think) that’s a frozen tundra due to nuclear war. You can send out expeditions, recruit new people, but mostly build up your food, infirmary, etc. very punishing.
> In the case of the debit card example (or credit cards) banks could do what they used to and actually decline the charge. However they've clearly figured out it's much more profitable to allow the charge and just hit people with (often excessive) overdraft and over credit limit fees.

The Outer Wilds does have a pretty similar theme. Without spoiling anything, you are a newly-minted explorer trying to uncover the history of the advanced precursor race that previously inhabited your solar system. (Any more details would spoil the plot, unfortunately!)

It's lower scale (single solar system instead of galactic), and it's definitely based on lower-tech civilization trying to understand dead, higher-tech civilization rather than trying to uncover long-last past of your own species, though.
I've always wanted a sequel (or spiritual successor, or rip-off) of "Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King". It was just a WiiWare game, but I really remember enjoying the building and simulation aspect of controlling RPG characters.
What I take from this is that if you want to rent your house to someone and don't want to sell it and certainly don't want the renter to lie about it and say you promised to sell the house, you then have to specify in the renting contract that there will be no selling of the house to that renter. This greatly lowers the probability that you then changed your mind and somehow promised orally to sell it.
How I read this is now you need to put data servers in each country and follow the local rules related to data control. Says nothing about the insights you pull from the data. And the internet was built to withstand a nuclear war not some kind of utopia borderless data access.
I do work out regularly (bodybuilding) since high school, it’s becoming less manageable after I graduated college and started working… even though my job is fully remote. Afterr a long day of work, I’m exhausted already and have to drink more c4 (pre workout) before I hit gym (usually around 4 - 5pm), which usually causes me not being able to fall alspeep nicely at night, and this has been going on for two years and my immune system is nothing like before, I found myself becoming more prone to diseases, I got Covid while my gf didn’t get it despite the fact we live together and recently I got eczema on my back… all this just for saving up for down payment of a house…
You want to limit what current and future generations of people can do with their computers because of something a computer illiterate grandma may have done in the 90s?

No. Those people get newspapers and landlines.

There are many non-exclusive reasons: companionship, protection, unpaid labor, income, and role-expectations.

Detailing the last three, unpaid labor can look like child care, errand running, home repair, and house work(and while men generally spend less time than women doing this, it isn't zero[1]). Female breadwinner households include male gig work ex: 77% of ride share drivers are male[2]. That's a way of saying that the men in these relationships are not contributing - they can be - just not at a level to be considered a dual earner.

Lastly, let's not discount gender and role expectations. If you are male, have you asked the women in your life if they have been pressured to not be single by their family or peers? Did others have expectations of them? What were their responses?

In my social network, I can name plenty of women who are living with men who engage in drug abuse, alcohol abuse, and have mental disorders, sometimes more than one. I instinctively caricature this type, which makes it more difficult for me to identify these cases, but substance abuse, mental disorders, or physical disorders don't automatically render people homeless, insane, or invalid. They all can, however, make it much more difficult to hold down a steady job or result in under employment.

Nonetheless, some women accept these challenges, while others they regret the pressure they faced or decisions they made in entering these relationships. The effort required to enter and exit relationships is asymmetrical. There is some stickiness to the whole affair even within cohabitating unmarried couples. Deciding to live alone is a serious choice.

My VW Jetta has Apple Carplay and similar issues abound.

> it has a boot procedure when you turn the car on. While this happens, the controls have quite substantial latency.

I've got one better. Controls during bootup in my car are simply ignored, and the bootup duration for Carplay in particular is so bad that it makes the bluetooth delay seem acceptable.

> However the first thing that happens is it begins playing audio.

This is ironic because I wish mine would start playing. There's no setting for playback behavior either. The only setting, in fact, is the ability to reorder and add/remove third-party apps.

Oh, worse still, sometimes audio doesn't play even when you manually select something. The UI will register it as playing but the audio doesn't come through. When this happens, you have to disconnect and reconnect your phone, which is dangerous in motion. It's a joke. It makes me wonder what the deal is, and I have no idea who to report the bug to.

> All of this combines for a user experience dramatically worse than an aux cord. It's kind of spectacular in its terribleness. And this is an otherwise great car.

Yup. My beater in college that came with some random aftermarket radio was better. Carplay is pretty but beyond that it feels like an afterthought as an experience.

Your first plot is of global, not US airline traffic.

Global incomes have risen, most notably in China.

I may have misread a chart or mis-remembered statistics. The Statista chart does show that the post-2000 trend in air travel is well below the 1990s trendline. Actual miles travelled would have been above 1 trillion had the former continued.

The more notable chart of Gordon's does indeed show price per passenger mile, not total miles (p. 401, Rise and Fall).

It's also often useful to think of travel not as miles but as time. Given an average train speed of about 30 mph, and aircraft of about 450 mph, the time per person per travel mode is nearly identical: 1.3 vs. 1.6 billion hours.

People take trains. They don't take them as far as they do aircraft.

Auto travel works out to about 12 billion hours, again assuming 30 mph average speed. That's about 10 minutes per person per day.

It's fantastic. After you fill your password, the 2FA code is automatically copied to your clipboard. Logging into a two factor form for me is basically Cmd + Shift + L (fill login), enter, Cmd + V (paste 2fa code), enter.

I think it's pretty valuable - you automatically get the benefit of your pw manager recognizing the domain and only logging you in/copying the code if the domain matches what's in the password manager.

They don't offer direct search, but isn't this what "key moments" is in search results? Try eg how to change a lightbulb.

I believe SeekToAction works even if the uploader didn't put chapters in. This was a relatively recent update, to make it fully automatic. So it's presumably doing some audio/video analysis to figure it out. All you need to do is tell Google how to seek your video (so it also works with non youtube videos too).

I wonder if this would be possible if you could abstract away enough detail when necessary, and bring it back when zooming in. For example, when you zoom out from a city, the server stops calculating individual vehicles' paths, and instead models the city as a node with x cars flowing in via I-69, y cars flowing out via I-01, etc. Using this you could even abstract away entire planets.

Then when the player zooms in again, individual roads can still be adjusted, which simply changes the formula describing the city's traffic flow.

The standard American shower doesn't even have pressure control - a single knob goes from off, to cold, to hot, at constant (high pressure).

I'm in a Californian hotel right now, and I need to redirect 75% of the water to the bath faucet to have a shower at reasonable pressure. A lot of wasted water.

With proper pressure control in showers, and abandoning lawn watering (naturalscaping/xeriscaping looks better and is much more pollinator friendly anyway) we can cut a lot of household water use.
The parent said “animated flows” and mentioned a banking app, so I’m betting a multi-page form with lots of transitions between a lot of different state combinations.

Again, just guessing, but I would imagine that it’s managing that state and animating it in a sane way which requires LOTS of code, less so the animations themselves.
In 2020 the Netherlands bought more ebikes than pedal bikes for the first time. They also paid on average $2000 for their ebikes compared with $1000 for their pedal bikes. So in terms of dollars (or Euros) the market in the Netherlands is now 66% ebikes.

What people in the Netherlands found was that an ebike would allow them to do errands up to a distance of about 15km whereas with a pedal bike the distance was more like 5km before they would take their car.

My experience is similar. Ebikes in practice are more like a smaller car than they are like a bigger bike, when the roads or bike paths are suitable.

That might be possible on Android. But dedicated buttons would be better, to avoid having modes, and because sometimes there are use cases where you want to use both functions (e.g. scrolling through playlists while trying songs with different volume levels).

Electronic consumer devices like Minidisc players and PDAs used to often have a multitude of buttons to directly access all commonly used functions.
I want a shooter based MMO. Closest thing I ever got was destiny but the MMO aspect of that was weak. Think world of Warcraft but the main gameplay is fps.

>Very misleading analysis here. First of all, the obvious: Sweden should not be compared with an average European country, but with its peers.

This is an interesting question, and it really depends on what question you are trying to answer with with the comparison.

If you are trying to ask if Sweden could have done more, then I think your suggestion is correct.

If you are trying to ask if Sweden did enough then the comparison may be different. For example, if the goal was to not have a huge spike in excess deaths, it seems like their approach worked well.

Ok, an explicit conspiracy that the Jews are censoring the internet.

You've said you think other governments are doing the same? But you're somehow sure that in this case, it's the Jews.

Your post is a testament to a conspiratorial worldview that I don't follow. The simplest explanation for why two shills for a fascist government presently engaged in a genocide have been removed from a platform, somehow involves the Jews.

If your devs say they are faster with SwiftUI, your app is probably dumber than you are willing to accept.

Yea, I feel Savage 1 really wanted to be almost "Warcraft/AoE, but your friends are the units," which is why it includes some rather dull mechanics. I think Savage 2 got rid of some of the tedium, but it also introduced more specialization which made it even harder to get a game going, as you can't even really play the game with less than ~8 people in a server (and the game really only gets fun with many, many more players).
