> It's irrelevant to me if 99% of users are on a single ForgeFed instance as long as it's still federated so I don't need to be there if I don't want to but can still interact.

Only if you're running your own instance, otherwise you're at the mercy of whoever's instance you are on: if they decide to cut off some other instance for whatever reason, then, no, you won't see that other instance without running your own instance.

And if you do federate with rogue instances, your own instance will be rejected from the popular ones anyway.

It's a social problem, not a technological one, so you get all the downsides of centralisation with none of the upsides.

> On the game engine side, there's the comment that Rust has 50 game engines and 5 games.

Bingo.

The problem in the Rust ecosystem is that people are writing libraries instead of applications.

This is backwards. Until you have a couple of applications written, you have zero idea what to abstract.

I'll go further. The Rust GUI ecosystem is fundamentally doomed because they are absolutely insisting that any GUI thing must run on desktop, mobile, and web simultaneously. The abstractions required between those domains are fundamentally incompatible.

Desktop apps want "Give me all your cores. Now." Mobile is all about "Please, sir, can I have some battery?" Web is all about "Back in my day all we had was one damn thread so that's all you get and you'll like it."

I would personally cheer if we had one good Rust GUI framework for each of those cases.
In a first approach, yeah, that sounds pretty reasonable.

> Online bridge needs visible rewards for success. BBO is out of the 90s, but presuming we get something modern eventually, give me custom board skins! Let me have a penguin for an avatar. Give me a special hat for winning a certain tournament. Young folks engage with cosmetic rewards, and they don't have to be predatory!

Fortunately that's not always the case with young people, I mean, this avatar-mania thing. Bridge is not anime- or otaku-adjacent.

Back to the subject at hand, and taking into consideration that I've never ever played bridge (but some of the people from my uni used to play back in the day, including one dorm roommate), I feel like the OP wants to change the entire culture of the game being played around his/her/their parts of the world (I think it's the Valley) only on account of him/her/they being younger. That's not how it works, there are moments in life when you have to adapt to the existing culture, not the other way round.

> If you want to trust a given instance nobody strops you.

Maybe I am understanding it wrong: when your instance (inA) federates with inB, doesn't that make inB available to everyone who is federated with inA?
I'm very interested in seeing if using the commonly implemented forms of compiler support for async programming can also be well used for GUI programming. One wishawa[0] is also perusing this approach in Rust but I first came upon this idea from the crank-js[1] authors. It wasn't clear to me why that one never went anywhere. Was it failure with the approach or was React just a good solution in the space? I can say this though, there's something strikingly elegant about those initial samples of using JavaScript generators for components.

Or Rust is just an extremely difficult language to learn when all you really need are shaders and as you say, mutable state.

Rust will let you mutate state just like C++, but it's difficult to master in a timely way. So, when your time is better spent on the actual shaders and game logic, you have little patience to learn enough Rust to effectively use it.

Bevy absolutely allows circular data structures and I’d be surprised if any complex game ships without any - Entity references can easily be circular. Most ECS frameworks are their own memory manager which, sure, prevents running afoul of the borrow checker at compile time but not in spirit.

Dangling pointers, null references, and duplicate mutable references all creep into an ECS. They just have new names since it’s all hidden behind Entity rather than a reference or pointer.

This lady seems more successful than me, but I managed to build a respectable one man consulting business, and I have zero intention to grow that. My job already feels like 50% sales, I'm not looking to make that 100% and add the anxiety of having to pay people to the anxiety of having to earn enough for myself, or limit the freedoms I got out of this move.

Not having to work was my goal for a long time, but lately I realised that it's not a very achievable one, without some major luck at least. Working on my own terms is the next best thing, and quite enjoyable so far. If that's the goal, why scale the business?
So basically, the same problem any cross-platform framework has.
My objection is mostly based on how much things annoy me, not necessarily on health.

Health-wise backyard campfires and BBQ are probably no better (or worse) than burning tobacco or pot.

Many places already restrict backyard campfires and similar. See eg https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/dec/17/wood-bur...

To expand a bit on my original comment:

> I don't care what my neighbours do in the privacy of their own home, as long as it doesn't affect me.

So I might care about them doing a backyard campfire. If it's both legal and long-standing custom in that neighbourhood, I might just not move there in the first place. If it's illegal and I already live there when they start, I might object.

$50 million back in the early 2000s. That was how much Netflix was worth when Blockbuster was made an offer to buy it. They rejected it. Could've been a different world if Yahoo and Blockbuster weren't so afraid of change. Sad to see the end of the DVD era... kind of makes you wonder why we put so much faith in the digital cloud, for one day, maybe we will only be able to play DVDs. Then again... can't be afraid of change.

Fruits and veg are generally twice the price in the EU, stuff that is grown largely or only here is more like 4x the price in the EU. Coffee, avocados, etc.

"This would have a very negative effect on the price our producers receive, and this would discourage farmers from taking over farms," said Benoit Cassart, secretary-general of the Belgian Cattle Trade Federation.

"Premium, high-quality meat holds great value in Europe. That's not the case in China, for example. We are hopeful that the European market will open up to Brazilian meat with the finalization of the agreement," Marina told DW.

"That doesn't mean they are producing something bad. But if they must remove the Amazon rainforests to produce meat and send it to Europe, and this makes our green pasture redundant, it makes no sense at all," he told DW.
I don't think its all that special. its a matter of staying in one spot. Don't rent for a big corporation. have a good relationship with the owner, etc. Its partly luck, but its also partly putting yourself in a position to get that.

A great many of today's fans have never encountered the sex scenes. They're a tiny fraction of the original game, they're well-known as not being particularly erotic or well-written; they're really not important or relevant to the game's history or sales. A couple of sex scenes don't make a game "porn" any more than a couple of quips make a game "comedy". That you focus on them says more about you than it does about FSN.

One out of Clannad and Kanon has sex scenes in and the other doesn't. I can't even remember which is which, and it doesn't matter.

But let's be honest, regardless of all the work Haig did after the warbto support veterans, militarily he wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer. Sure, we argue from hindsight. Also true, the opposition wasn't much better. Also true, most WW1 commanders were better than what we make them today. And Haig was no Cadorna or Hötzendorf.

The big mistake Haig made, or the thing he didn't see, was IMHO how the war was fought and won on the Western Front. He wanted a breakthrough, instead he got a war of attrition. One the Entente was winning. Haig went from attempted breakthrough to winning, without realizing why his strategy worked. Because one can fight a war of attrition without sacrificing as much of your own men as the Entente did.

How the Entente reacted to the Kaiserschlacht so, well, that was the right reaction: let the Germans leave their fortified positions, outrun their logistics, and sacrifice some ground until the enemy runs out of steam. Then counter attack. That way, you don't even have to break through the enemies lines as they are already abandonned and unmanned. No idea how much influence Haig had on this so.

At least the authors you mentioned argue based on primary sources and facts. As oppossed to people using autobiographies and post-war memoires of WW2 generals.

Both RISC and CISC are usually used in the context of describing Turing complete instruction sets. I'm not sure, it's relevant here?

If you want to make a comparison in this flavour: Turing machines are a bit like CPUs in that they can execute arbitrary things in sequence. All the flavours of machine learning are more like GPUs: they do well with oodles of big, parallelisable matrix multiplications interspersed with some simple non-linear transformations.
The "-eos" suffix for making color adjectives from names of substances, was a standard method in Greek, e.g. "chruseos" (golden), from "chrusos" (gold).

"Cuanos", "cuaneos" and many other words that are derived from "cuanos" are very abundant in the Iliad and the Odyssey (and also in most later Greek texts), so there is plenty of evidence about their use.

They are used e.g. about the eyes of Amphitrite, about some details of the shield of Achilles, about some ornaments of the prow of the ships and about many other things.

See "A Lexicon of the Homeric Dialect", by Richard John Cunliffe, which points to the locations in the Iliad and in the Odyssey of such words.

Moreover, the word "cuwano", used for ultramarine blue, is also known from many Hittite texts that are much older than any Greek texts, making obvious from where the Greeks have taken the word.

The various kinds of blue pigments used for paintings, i.e. the various kinds of "cuanos", are described with many details by Theophrastus, whose work is important for understanding many of the earlier uses of some words, because in the older texts the meaning was difficult to grasp from the limited context.
"Insane"? I type professionally too. On my laptop, in a myriad different settings. Sometimes in a coffee shop, sometimes on a quiet bench in a hallway, sometimes at home on my sofa, my kitchen table, and sometimes at my desk.

If it doesn't work for you then it doesn't mean it won't for anybody else. It's surely not "insane".

Apropos of Microsoft discontinuing Visual Studio for the Mac.

My perspective is as someone who mainly used C# on the Mac with Unity. I was a professional C# developer at one point, but not on the Mac.

MonoDevelop, long ago, shipped with Unity on the Mac, and you'd use it for all your C# development. Xamarin Studio was the proprietary counterpart, and the selling point was that you could develop cross-platform mobile apps in C#. When Microsoft purchased Xamarin, Xamarin Studio was rebranded as Visual Studio, which is confusing.

So we are back to MonoDevelop if you want a free IDE for C# you can use on the Mac, with good C# support. VS Code has C# support through a plugin but it's not as good as MonoDevelop.

I guess the OP is referring to how communist countries are/were big in personality cult and general brainwashing. Marx and his ideology when they were happy with the soviets, Ceausescu later when the political winds changed.

Generally though, people have a tendency to seek flags to rally behind, be it personalities, ideologies or religions. There is nothing surprising on that, given that the success of our species relies on coordinating large numbers of people. The problem is that, sometimes, it is very difficult or impossible for the individual to choose the "right" flag, whatever the definition of right may be. In communist and totalitarian countries, the problem is solved for the individual by allowing only one flag. In countries with good democracy, e.g. USA[^1], it sometimes happens that the population divides evenly between the flags available to them (i.e. Republicans and Democrats).

[^1]: The US' democracy has many faults, but it's a shining thing compared with a lot of countries in the world.

I remember several PC games with "amiga music". Settlers (the original), SuperFrog, Pinball Fantasies, and so on. Most likely because they were amiga ports. They didn't necessarily use the MOD format all of them, but still. I remember ripping the music from SuperFrog and Settlers at least.
A lot of their products are very solid. We have, at home, Yandex Music which is way cheaper than Spotify (and is quite different) and Alice, which is their Alexa equivalent. If you speak Russian, its quite good :)
