> That's not a good definition

What isn't, the text you are replying to, or the linked definition in that text?

The linked definition includes your point that "European reviewers will consider it poor design if ... players don't get to play to the end" for example, so your listing it doesn't work as a criticism of the definition.

The BGG definition seems quite comprehensive, and definitely not just "games you interact with your opponent".

From BGG:

Eurogames (or alternatively, Designer Board Games or German-Style Board Games) are a classification of board games that are very popular on Board Game Geek (BGG). Though not all eurogames are European and not all of them are board games, they share a set of similar characteristics. A game need not fit ALL the criteria to be considered a Eurogame.

Most Eurogames share the following elements:

- Player conflict is indirect and usually involves competition over resources or points. Combat is extremely rare.

- Players are never eliminated from the game (All players are still playing when the game ends.)

- There is very little randomness or luck. Randomness that is there is mitigated by having the player decide what to do after a random event happens rather than before. Dice are rare, but not unheard of, in a Euro.

- The Designer of the game is listed on the game's box cover. Though this is not particular to Euros, the Eurogame movement seems to have started this trend. This is why some gamers and designers call this genre of games Designer Games.

- Much attention is paid to the artwork and components. Plastic and metal are rare, more often pieces are made of wood.

- Eurogames have a definite theme, however, the theme most often has very little to do with the gameplay. The focus instead is on the mechanics; for example, a game about space may play the same as a game about ancient Rome.

- Eurogames are concerned with getting the most strategy from the least or minimal mechanics.

- Eurogames typically have multiple viable paths to scoring points or securing the win condition.

- Eurogames generally correspond to the BGG subdomain "Strategy".

Examples of Eurogames: CATAN, Puerto Rico, Carcassonne, Tigris & Euphrates, Caylus, Power Grid, Ra, El Grande, Five Tribes

// As owner of the listed example games, I find the linked definition significantly superior.

It's not fusion we need, it's cheap non polluting energy.

Fusion _might_ become that cheap non polluting source, but right now we don't know. What we do know is: renewables are cheap right now.

Now applied to hydrogen, we can even say that hydrogen production can perfectly adapt to the intermittency of renewables. But I'm of the opinion that we need to decarbonate our grids further before we start looking into using renewables for h2 production.

The way Chrome works especially in the past many years is 100% correctly described by the comment you were replying to: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33989349

You "counterpoint" isn't even a counterpoint, but just reinforces the original comment.

It literally says in the actual document about Page Lifecycle API: "It is not a W3C Standard nor is it on the W3C Standards Track." https://wicg.github.io/page-lifecycle/spec.html

Literally not a standard shipped in Chrome, literally is something Chrome came up with and implemented on its own, literally only shipped in Chrome without any consensus or input from other browser implementers...

And yet "no, this isn't true, this isn't how Chrome works at all".

Is this true for 100% of things that Chrome is shipping? No. But it's so asymptotically close that the difference doesn't matter. They ship 40 to 70 new web APIs in each version. That is, 40 to 70 new Web APIs every month. Over 500 new APIs a year. How many do you imagine they even pretend to be a standard? https://web-confluence.appspot.com/#!/confluence

DNS Spoofing – Cache Poisoning Attack
DNS Spoofing - Cache Poisoning Attack
Trust / Culture

US startup. We tried hiring remote in India and eastern Europe. The biggest hurdle was the culturally implied expectations.

I mean India outsourcing doing a bad job is a cliche by now. But that was precisely our experience. The available remote freelancers in India didn't seem to share US values of what constitutes acceptable quality. Even with reminders to deliver US quality, their work was often on a level where a US employee would have been ashamed to call it "finished". But they happily "solved" those tickets.

Also, there were so many intermediate translators and managers that at the end, a rural US grad student was similar in price to an Indian freelancer in one of the IT hotspots there.

But mainly, that difference in culture leads to a lack of trust. I wouldn't let Indian freelancers interface directly with US customers because I know that their definition of a solution doesn't overlap much.
I wonder how this will affect OpenStreetMap. In a related article in Dutch newspaper NRC¹, TomTom (one of the partners in this consortium) mentions that OpenStreetMap is too inflexible, and Google Maps troublesome because of Google's tight control. For Meta and Amazon not having to depend on Google is desirable of course. This effort looks like an attempt to do what OpenStreetMap does, but without its community.

As an OpenStreetMap contributor I'm worried about the future of OpenStreetMap. The OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF) doesn't seem to stimulate or direct innovation. In fact, most innovations are done in apps like OsmAnd and OrganicMaps, and by individuals or small groups experimenting with one-off projects and demos or localised initiatives. There is little to no overarching development, and the main website (openstreetmap.org) while providing a good and mostly up-to-date map, is showing its age — including numerous bugs in the main style that won't be fixed because the handful of volunteer maintainers of that style can effectively block broadly adopted features if they don't like them, and the OSMF has no real recourse on handling that situation.

I really hope the hard work put in by the OpenStreetMap mappers won't be for naught. Local mappers are a boon to maps like these, and in places where local mappers are on the ball OpenStreetMap is as accurate as you can reasonably get.

Depending on the task to be solved, a Bash script (using AWK, Coreutils etc.) executes much slower than the correspinding Perl or Python script, and having to run slow scripts often interactively can have a strong negative impact on developer productivity, especially on flow state (of mind).
Or, as another option, gamers should have the right to refund the game if it becomes not as described. Developers then have a choice -- either continue to run servers or be ready for incoming refunds.

No, that's one of the reasons.
High security or generally poor conditions are one thing, and maybe expected in prison. But if the description provided is accurate that's torture, which is illegal even in the US. The "get out of jail free" card is that the authorities then twist the definition in a manner where the same thing is only torture when any other country is doing it.

The Stasi would be extra proud of the US.

London real estate is expensive because it's highly desirable, most people buying it up are not using funds derived from criminal sources.

It can be true that a pragmatic relationship with "dirty money" has played a role in making London as desirable as it's today, but that would be a success story rather than a negative side effect as you suggest.
To quote the blogpost:

Good thing or not, coups in Turkey were a feature of their democratic system. One of the problems they had to contend with was a continuing push to religious governments - a sort of "majority dictatorship", because probably well over half the population leans religious, but voting politicians by this criteria will end democracy pretty quick. So Ataturk left the military as guardian dogs, with a more or less official mandate to bring down any overly Islamic governments and restore democracy. And it worked, for quite a long time.

I'm not saying coups were nice, or civilized. I can easily take your word that they were brutal. I'm just saying they were part of the system, and when they stopped working the system failed.
That seems unlikely, that’s about the rate people give silly answers to pollsters.

The study by YouGov in conjunction with The Economist has found that 30-44-year-olds are most likely to believe this widely debunked conspiracy, with 7% of people from this age group saying that it is "definitely true" and 20% of them saying it is "probably true.

If they can make nutritious meat they can also make nutritious pills or jelly, and the smaller form factors will have many more advantages (durability, no cooking etc)

In that respect I'd expect artificial meat to be mostly a ceremonial and/or tasting experience. Which is fine, but is a much narrower target than trying yo cover everything meat does today.

I think it might contribute more than you think, looking at how many points the rising articles have. Especially if your one vote is an early vote.
For stories, I usually read them first unless it’s clearly something I already know the story behind and want to boost.

In comments, I (try) to use it for things I feel add to the conversation and should be seen even when I don’t agree. I can admit they sometimes get the other vote though when they get my goat.
Intellectuals will go to different sources, among them including international sources as the US books industry is especially US-centric. In the US, one source for intellectuals is the New York Review of Books (not to be confused with the NYT Sunday Book Review supplement). Curious to hear where others go.
Hacker news has horrible accessibility though. Voting on touch devices, readability of downvoted comments, screen reader behaviour, …

Of course all of these would be solvable in a "retro" design as well.

If the comment/link is not actionable, and/or results in wasting time or my life worsening, or encourages social problems, especially a breakdown in communication (such as baseless emotional appeals or polarizing comments), I downvote.
For me, it clicked immediately. It is a simple way to partial updates of the UI, without having to worry about a ton of tooling. It also pushes most of the logic to the backend, which is nice. It also constrains some of the UX decisions, leaving less room for useless craziness.

In the end both occurred: Britain proper having received neither peace nor destruction; Germany was annihilated, partitioned into the BRD and DDR; and the great world empire was destroyed, the UK reduced to playing Airstrip One to one of the former colonies.

Not sure how this is better than a simulator from 2003.

Or even earlier for that matter.

When this can do what LTSpice can do and show a nice 3D simulation with all the voltages in realtime at each node if one wants to see said simulation instead of traces, then yeah it'll be an improvement.
I go straight to comments normally and if those are insightful and interesting i upvote the story. Hardly ever read the article; unintended usually but the article said enough.
TF2 hasn't matched to 3rd party servers or allowed directly connecting to Valve servers in 6 years, since the introduction of a matchmaking service. They did, however, let a bot flood on official servers get so bad for so a few years that community servers took off and became popular again. It's only been this year that they finally started to effectively fight back against the bots, making casual usable again.

Didnt know that one. However, looking at Wikipedia tells me :CueCat was given away for free. The story I was remembering above is about an assistive technology, read, EXPENSIVE and OVERPRICED technology for the disabled. It hurt quite a few people when they figured out their investment is now a door stopper.
Communities often formed "leagues" you could compete in. You could join teams for team games and teams were ranked, had matches, competed. For more single oriented things you were your own matchmaker: choose the servers with more skilled players. Different skillsets naturally tended to gravitate to specific servers because they knew they could compete with other skilled players.
I do give him credit for those things, but the guy is one of the most powerful people in the world and uses that power to bully. He keeps using his position of power to punch down at people who usually don’t deserve it. It’s petty and pathetic.

For example, twitter’s former head of trust and safety had to leave his home recently because Musk told his fawning followers that he was a pedophile. It’s not even the first time Musk has called someone a pedophile unfounded.
Probably because they disdain the use of AI being used to copy their IP and distribute it at "machine" scale? Not an artist myself but can imagine I'd be pissed off that a bot is replicating my art with random changes.

HOWEVER, if a person were to ask for permission to use my pictures to feed into an AI to generate a number of images, and that person _selected_ a few and decided to sell them, I wouldn't have a problem with that. Something to do with the permission provided to the artist and an editing/filtering criteria being used by a human makes me feel ok with such use.
Both, it depends.

>I'd probably ignore the child porn allegations - that's a common way to smear folks.

Excuse me, but what the fuck kind of logic is that? Do you have a citation?

Maybe back in the days of WinMX, Kazaa, and anonymous FTP servers folks would abuse the spirit of the strict liability nature of CSAM paired with the fact it's difficult to truly erase terrible things you accidentally encounter... but nowadays it's REALLY easy to stick to sources of porn that are legal.

But to be clear... that's not at all what happened here. He didn't spider file sharing sites and get more than he bargained for or something mislabeled.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joshua_Schulte#Sex_crimes_alle...

>the government found that Schulte had "neatly organized" this material "according to his preferences, and stored it for a period of years."[31] In the government's view, there was "no set of circumstances that can confidently assure the Court that he's not going to continue to try to download child pornography, encourage others to download it and share it and just generally engage in very dangerous sexual activity."... When the government searched Schulte's phone, they found a photograph taken inside the bathroom of his old home.[35] The picture showed an unconscious woman whose underwear had been removed and whose genitals were being touched. She was not publicly named, but was identified as Schulte's roommate at the time. She informed investigators that she passed out one night with no memory of what happened, and that the photograph was not consensual.[2] She was unable to identify the person who took the picture and molested her, prosecutors in Loudoun County said an analysis of Schulte's hands confirmed they were his hands in the picture.

When you recite talking points like that, you're telling on yourself because I assure you most hackers are not running around downloading CSAM and uploading

(And we call it "child sex abuse material", not child porn, to emphasize the folks are victims of abuse... children cannot consent, full stop, and you tell on yourself when you want to ride the lightning of when that consent should start in your porn habits.)

If I see a story that has been made dead or flagged that I think should not be I vouch for it and then upvote it.

If I post something then I am on new page, then I quickly look over page for things I think are high quality in something I am familiar with, then I upvote. Even though, realistically this makes my current submission less likely to get to front because i am upvoting its competitors.

Yeah, apparently actual large scale manufacturers, GE, Honeywell, Safran, etc. have no interest in producing supersonic engines.
