Ah thanks I had heard of and then forgotten about jepsen. I had considered what you described but I thought there might be a more targeted approach where you can specify your invariants (like "x can only be in one of two states" or "pushing alway increases the length of a list and popping always reduces it if it's non-empty") and get the tool to try to break them.

I wonder if there could be a tool that instruments in the same way that afl does to try to detect races or inconsistent states.
Google should stop building a massive surveillance apparatus for the entire world, but this would hurt their ad business, plus any other monetizeable ways they can shape public opinion. And those changes would certainly enrage their shareholders.

“Skyrocketing violence statistics involving young men, including a spate of shootings, may also be traceable to mental illnesses exacerbated by the enforced isolation of COVID-19.”

Now gun violence is being blamed on Covid.

The key to any article is to offer a lot of innuendo and say “May also…”
The API custom define is perfectly fine. (Well it sucks but that's not his fault, that's a c++ language deficiency). But making custom defines for fundamental types and for language keywords because you'd rather type internal than static is just messy.

I really don't think there's enough difference during your studies for it to be justified. Of course it's nice to have a meeting personally with your professor every week, of course it's nice to have brand new classrooms and free snacks when you get to listen to nobel prize winners giving a lecture about their work. But you can also sit down, anywhere in the world, and just study hard to succeed in your exam. It's not that they have different math at harvard and if you go to a challenging university you get challenging lectures.

This "elite university" brand, is imho, totally overrated. Of course you build great social connections, but if you hire a software engineer you don't hire his connections. But I feel like employers try to derive their prestige from the prestige of the universities. This is different for positions with a social dimension, like entrepreneurs, where your social connections matter.

This, of course, does not say anything about whether the prestige of Harvard itself is justified. I actually think so, because in experience people always overrate the education part of a university. It's a small amount of the total operation, way more money goes into research. Harvard does a lot of world class research, it's very good at it, consistently. Also MIT, Stanford, Oxford etc. This needs recognition and care, it's something special. But just deriving your own prestige because you did your undergrad there is stupid I think.
Agreed. It seems like examples should be easy to find and highlight if it’s really as common as this article suggests.

I’ve seen people spontaneously put $100 toward creators they really appreciate, but those are rare. $100 per month on a recurring basis or a constant influx of one-off $100 donations is a much higher bar. You would need a relatively massive audience to convert enough people interested in spending $1K/year on something.
Start doing that in your spare time. You will likely find that write your own game is way more dreadful than your day job :^)

Exactly the same for me. I've developed a similar style game in Delphi with multiple weapons, rocket jumps and everything. I've never been more excited to learn about trigonometric functions to get the arm movement right to follow the mouse cursor.
I had no idea about the source code being public either!
I think a major limitation is that a WebAssembly module can’t run dynamically generated code, which is a huge part of typical Common Lisp implementations.

At Amazon return to office is now up to middlemanagement some entire orgs are officially ok with full remote indefinitely. Outside these orgs some individuals can work from different locations on the same team. It's not quite clear what the average steady state will look like, but with a lot of internal hiring at Amazon, I would imagine things would gradually tend towards being fairly flexible
Yes it is. Try and think a couple steps ahead.

The system we live under only works because people believe in it and more or less voluntarily play by the rules.

Feel free to undermine state legitimacy but know that this will result in more entities (and it will be the more powerful ones first, BigCo, city governments, etc) thumbing their nose at the state and engaging in short sighted behavior.

If CA isn't gonna honor it's promises then anyone who deals with CA has less incentive to enter into agreements with the state or honor existing ones. In that future if CA grants someone permission to take X of Y resource they might just take 5X on the basis that CA won't honor their end so why should they.

Any lasting solution needs to be constructed on a solid legal foundation.

OpenArena, Tremulous.

However I stopped playing openarena because the only well-cared server was still full of people that would cheat in various ways, and that would make me extremely angry and would ruin the whole game experience. Also kinda addictive of a game, it is.
Isn't it a lot closer to Twitter?
I work for a company that's very much like Patreon for podcasters (Supercast). The people who will pay $1K a year to support a creator absolutely exist, but they are a small subset of the people who will pay $100 / year, which is itself a very small subset of the people who will listen to your podcast.

Some rough numbers:

- A podcast with an engaged fan base can usually get about 5% of their listeners to support them monthly / yearly

- Of the paid supporters, 1-2% are going to be the big spenders who spend in $1K a year territory.

So sure, you can be self-sufficient on 100 $1K a year fans, but to get there, you need 5,000 $100 / year fans (which needs 100,000 listeners), and not doing anything for them is leaving money on the table.
There is a simple way around that argument; instead of getting some random (according to whatever distribution) characteristics, be bound to have higher probability of obtaining those characteristics you would be the least bound to be fair to (as individuals). So, if one considers that slavery or torture is perfectly OK, then that person will become a slave or tortured.
So... all the other things in my life other than my home that are high-cost... are not high-cost, because of your bizarre comment? That doesn't follow.

And my house is high-cost compared to the median. Just not compared to the top x% of the country.
Minor caveat on SEE.
If the Forth implementation uses "threaded" code the resulting source code can be quite close to the original text.

If the Forth compiler generates native code the one-to-one relationship with the source is lost and SEE will typically show the compiled code as Assembly Language.

At my company we would love to use buf but can't: because of the BSR. We already pay shitloads for our VCS - we don't want to pay for another product that does the same thing. After using go and getting a taste of what life is like without third party package publishers (like npm, pypi, etc) it's hard to want to go back.

> I guess private fields means 'we're not maintaining this as an API', but in practice these days means 'haha my library just wraps platform functionality but you'll have to fork it if you want to do a thing that should be easy'

And now you know why python has decided to not have privacy at all but depend on convention instead. More languages should have some form of "I know this is private but I know what I'm doing" override IMO. It's irreplaceable in some circumstances.
I always ask interviewer to see if they use SAFe or not. If they use SAFe, they just don't get it and it means that wrong people are making important decisions in the org.
So the point here is that you don't need as many fans if your fans are sufficiently rich?

I mean, it's true: one can make more money by [selling to / servicing / having as a patron] the rich, but it's not a new observation.
Not all of these are wholly free games. For instance World of Padman's resources (models, textures, ...) are proprietary. I think at least some versions of Nexuiz and Warsow had same issue (not sure what is current status).
Hey, as everyone knows here, I’ll be the first one to rag on United States and California, but Israel has 1/4 of the population of California, has pretty much one religion and national unity, and they get 4 billion in aid from the United States at least. So I don’t think Israel is a fair comparison.

Plus, California has the mega rich who own a lot of the California coast. Which one of them is going to want a Desal plant next to their property?

So when you talk about the “United States” I’m assuming you mean the people who actually control the country; the wealthy.
I think it depends on how you decide to structure your offerings? For example, someone who emphasizes 1-1 instruction can shift some people to much higher payment tiers, at the cost of turning away a larger number of people who aren't interested in that sort of thing.
I loved playing CDDA in ASCII mode, but Dwarf Fortress is absolutely impenetrable to me, so I never had the chance to dive in properly. I'm waiting for the graphical version to be released, the screenshots I've seen of the new UI are incredible, I can't wait to buy it when it's out.

The problem is the highly subsidized cost of water for agricultural users. If farmers using irrigation water had to pay a bit more, they wouldn't waste as much. And they are wasting a lot of water relative to the small amount residential users are wasting
Interestingly this is something heavily discussed in many game communities. People feel a tension between looking things up while possibly ruining their experience and experimenting, learning themselves but spending much more time.

I think this has to do with a prevalence of frankly stupefying reward structure of many games. I call it spreadsheet progression. Instead of opening up new gameplay options, you often get a huge list of entirely arbitrary choices that only differ in the most superficial ways.
I'm happy to pay for my (private) searches, but $10 for my kind of consumption/volume is simply too expensive;

Agreed. I realized if I go back and play an old PS1 game, I can’t allow myself to do any internet search about it or it fundamentally changes how I play the game.

On the other side, this change in player behavior has reflected back in the game industry. I often see a “softening” in permanent build-based character gameplay, such as choosing your skills and stats in Diablo 2 has gone away in modern Diablo games - because why add this feature when you know your player base will all just google the best build?
Presumably they wanted to rush it out the door before an enemy attack on the hangar.

Baffling how easy it is for this brand of criminal to run free ruining and even ending lives every step they make. Somehow once you accrue enough money, this becomes mostly acceptable behaviour.

Only true for certain genres, which has pretty much always been true. There does seem to be an obsession around "content"/$ with a lot of today's gamers though, that leads to a bunch of relatively vapid 100hr+ open-world games that frankly all kinda feel like the same game, but again even that is same-as-it-ever-was if you recall when everything was a DOOM clone.

I'm quite pleased that today's game market has allowed for a wide variety of small, often fairly short, games with lots of experimentation.
To add a little bit to this, to be fair to N64 and PS1, we didn’t have a standard texture offset correction using transformation matrices until right around the time they launched. This was considerably noticeable in 007 Goldeneye on N64.

Nintendo had mostly gotten away with not needing it up until then because of the flat shading of their 3D cartoon look for most games. Goldeneye and later Turok suffered from this especially in the level design mapping.

Overall though, you nailed it.

Also, one of the best point and click puzzle games of all time, Myst, was kinda a UX disaster. Kids would spend hours just staring at some 3D rendered scene without knowing what was going on. People figured it out. Puzzles with difficulty have been a part of gaming ever since.
I published an app via docker that can be used for db migrations with all dbs supported by knex.js

Important to know. I think it's obvious what the reason was - stoking fear in the populace.
15 years ago my friends and I were playing daily. Our clan, the ICC, were regulars and for a while the strongest on one of the main EU servers (PSL: Premier Sauerbraten League). So many memories of that game, and the LAN parties.

It's incredible that there's some people still playing. I boot it up once a year, it's always like returning to a piece of my youth frozen in time :-)
Sure, there's a lot more which they should or should arguably do. But I wanted to focus on the clearest examples, and people will jump on the excuses of fiduciary duty and shareholder lawsuits if you give them the chance.

I did a term search on "streamer", in the now unavailable PDF document (or in the process of being modified/corrected/improved), and as far as I recall, the generic term "streamer" was related to gaming only in their table.
I think I read the same comment differently, and now I'm not sure what the original intent was.

I read it as:

25 years ago I had lots of time to invest in games.

But, the other, more likely, interpretation is that you need to invest large amounts of time I to games these days.

Like you, I disagree with the latter. I find the former interpretation resonates strongly though.

Well, the science of political economy is not really science so hard to tell. :-)

It seems, though, that capitalism does allow for faster wealth generation. Given proper corrections and balances, of course.

Posteo [1] also allows cash. But I'd say there that makes more sense than with Mullvad, because as a VPN provider they'll very likely know your IP address during operation, while for posteo you could at least access through tor (which doesn't make sense for Mullvad)

I'd say I have about 3 friends at MOST, altough, more like 1 that I consider to truly be a friend. And I agree, friend is completely misused.

On steam, friend means someone you want to be able to contact.
On discord its someone you trust (more than regular people) or one you allow to contact you at all (if dms are otherwise turned off) and so on.

For some reason, this raised my curiosity how fast different languages write individual characters to a pipe:

PHP comes in at about 900KiB/s:

php -r 'while (1) echo 1;' | pv > /dev/null

Python is about 50% faster at about 1.5MiB/s:

python3 -c 'while (1): print (1, end="")' | pv > /dev/null

Javascript is slowest at around 200KiB/s:

node -e 'while (1) process.stdout.write("1");' | pv > /dev/null

What's also interesting is that node crashes after about a minute:

FATAL ERROR: Ineffective mark-compacts
near heap limit Allocation failed -
JavaScript heap out of memory

All results from within a Debian 10 docker container with the default repo versions of PHP, Python and Node.

Update:

Checking with strace shows that Python caches the output:

strace python3 -c 'while (1): print (1, end="")' | pv > /dev/null

Outputs a series of:

write(1, "11111111111111111111111111111111"..., 8193) = 8193

PHP and JS do not.

So the Python equivalent would be:

python3 -c 'while (1): print (1, end="", flush=True)' | pv > /dev/null

Which makes it compareable to the speed of JS.

Interesting, that PHP is over 4x faster than the Python and JS.

> MMOs are kinda dying because of this mentality, especially WoW everyone expected to have the best build doing the best possible dps or else.

I can't speak for WoW, but I hope this is true for ESO. Despite watching many videos explaining the light-attack/power weaving technique, practicing for many hours, watching build videos, optimizing my build, farming/buying (mostly) BIS gear, and maxing it out, I can still only pull about half the DPS demanded by the hardest trials. Despite paying just as much as everyone else, there's a whole bunch of content I'm effectively gated from playing. So I don't, anymore. And I'm bitter about it.
