Some of the games I remember playing were:

- Chessmaster 2000

- nz.exe which took me decades to find to be "Saboteur 2",

- digger, a game similar to digdug, as you can see in the video

- moon patrol

- kicks.exe -- I still can't find what the actual title was. It was a game where balls bounce around an area and your job is to slice sections of the area closing off the balls, once you capture the balls in a small enough area, you move to the next level.
Like their own controversial ideals that the open source movement should be "not racist" and "not misogynistic"? Or do you disagree, and think the open source movement should be as racist and misogynistic as Eric S Raymond truly is?

The videos show the worst spots--in most cases you can get around them, assuming you have time and aren't worried about getting wet.

It's definitely scary and dangerous if you or your car happens to be stuck in the water. If you're in an apartment that doesn't have drainage issues, you can probably stay inside without noticing much. If you own a house with a basement in some neighborhoods, there's a good chance you have (potentially sewage-contaminated) water flowing into it.

Is this similar to what GoPro cameras do to remove the selfie-stick? They use video content from adjacent frames to remove the pole and fill in with pixels. I get that the approach here can use imagery that's frames completely differently.

Fair enough! We'll agree to disagree, maybe our paths will cross again in the future when we know more about both companies.
This. If you have a high-functioning team with good async culture/habits, in my experience "blockers" are not a big deal. I work closely with 5 other people and we are in 6 different time zones and I can honestly say that we are more productive than teams I have worked with in a traditional office setting. Sure, I cannot just walk over to a teammate's desk and ask a question, but I also don't have anyone walking over to my desk to interrupt me with a question.

We are all intentional about _over communicating_ what we are working on and where we will need support from from each other. Everything else pretty much just flows naturally from that. There are (rare) times were I cannot progress on something that day because I need feedback from someone who will not be online for 10 more hours, but it is just a built-in assumption that this will happen and I always have other work queued up that I can do if I get stuck....
Unfortunately our democracies have a blind eye when it comes to internalizing external costs and executing on policies that might take 20, 30 years to get implemented. It is a process with many setbacks every other election cycle. This is one place where a king or queen actually makes sense - their interest is to leave a heritage for their firstborn. But even monarchs need to fear the wrath of the people when they do it, and besides, they might be too stupid.
Sure, unions are another solution, but let's be clear:

A union only works if you were part of the union before you were fired unjustly.
Without that, "too bad" is indeed often the best you can do.

I was once in the hospital with acute pancreatitis. It was unplanned, and would have killed me had I not made it to the ER. The company I was working for at the time "let me go" because I'd gone two days without showing up to work. Given that during those two days I was unconscious and nearly dead, that would have been impossible to do.

When I spoke to a lawyer, they were very clear that the company had broken the law (FMLA protects people in situations like mine), but that fighting it would cost me a lot of money, and that there was no guarantee I'd win. I fought them anyways. I spent months fighting them, and spent thousands of dollars. The company ended up receiving a fine for less that what I paid in lawyer fees, and that's it. No payout for me, no resolution. The state felt the case was at least strong enough to justify the fine, but not strong enough to justify anything else.

So, yeah, sometimes "too bad" is about all we get.

That's what happens to all currencies once people lose faith in them. Being invested in US Dollars means you trust the federal reserve and the U.S. president and that's got to require an absurd level of naivety based on the recent and historical events.
i find the OP rather amusing--one of the earlier incidents during my time at Cloudflare (circa 2015) was dealing with prolific domain fronting, where IIRC some third-party proxy tool had set something up to the effect of "send SNI query for unblocked site on CF network, send HTTP Host for blocked site" automatically. this was ultimately blocked less because it was strictly undesirable and more because it resulted in some sort of cache poisoning problem. the unintended use started serving those proxy hack results to regular, non-domain fronting requests for whatever reason, which is obviously bad--you want the CDN to serve normal requests correctly, so you squash abnormal requests that work on their own, but cause cascading problems for other not abnormal requests.

many years down the road this is now an actual (with the problem cases handled) feature!
Ask HN: What entities out there provide open-source grants/funding?

Philosophically, yes. But some photo-editing techniques rely on data that is not backfillable and must be recorded at capture time. And even in cases where there is no functional impediment to applying it against historical photos, sometimes there is product gatekeeping to contend with.

I think the difference is that we have more than one example of masses of people fleeing to democracies, even if they have to do so illegally, while there are no examples of masses of people fleeing to communist countries.

It's pretty obvious what the non-armchair citizens of various governing styles prefer, and what they don't.
Thanks! The short answer is: no.

The longer answer is: I'm not actually sure how to solve this problem. The second site, simblob.blogspot.com, is an actual blog. It's time ordered. It has posts. But the main site, redblobgames.com, is structured as a "living document" site, not as a blog. Things are not posted in order.

I could try an automated feed that looks for any changes on pages. But I make small changes all the time. For example on [1] I changed "So far we’ve made step have the same" to "So far we’ve made steps have the same". I've been fixing a lot of broken links and typos this week, so there are lots of pages that have changed, but not in meaningful ways. I don't want those showing up on the RSS feed.

The second problem with an automated feed is that I have pages that aren't meant for publication. I collect notes for myself before I write an article, sometimes for years. For example [2] is something I may never get around to publishing. I don't want new pages to show up on the RSS feed, because most of them aren't ready yet, and some may never be.

So an alternative is for me to manually add entries to an RSS feed when they're "meaningful". I'm trying to do this by posting to the simblob.blogspot.com blog. An example is [3] where I describe the changes I'm making to the mapgen4 page. These wouldn't have been picked up by an automated feed because the HTML didn't change, but the interactive part did, so I wrote about it. Another example is [4] which is about changes to the hexagon page. I'll also go into a lot more details about why I made those changes [5].

But manually writing blog posts means there will be changes that won't show up in the RSS. Ideally I'd have some kind of automated way to flag meaningful changes to the site, but until then I am trying to write meaningful changes on the blog.

Its not all areas of Brooklyn that are flooded of course. Some of those areas flooded usually experience some kind of flooding when it rains heavily.
There was a heavy monsoon like downpour on 4 th of July for about an hour and there was flooding in the Prospect Park area and Windsor terrace area(flooded now again); Enough that given I was in my previously lowered car I wouldn't have been able to drive through it.

Another flooded area Borough Park is flat and I believe gets a lot of run off from the more elevation Sunset park neighborhood nextdoor.
A lot of work, maybe more than any creative work, requires long breaks for the best output to be created. When you're well rested, the work often comes easily and you're hungry from it. When you're tired, it's a slog to get going and you'll procrastinate your time away. The next day is even worse.

I've managed work in software, marketing, robotics and construction. In every field I have had to send people home to rest who were doing more harm than good with their tired decision-making. Doing the work that was set for the day and going home to rest is a great productivity and morale boost, in my opinion.

Individual work capacity varies, but in my experience most people overestimate theirs by a lot.
> That might be true if that wasn't a well known phrase that carries decades of examples behind it.

It is true and there are decades of examples. It’s just meaningless because it matches every social safety net so you can use it to argue against anything you want.

> Social safety nets are not spending millions of billions of dollars on disasters, especially disasters we've been predicting since the dawn of industry.

They are. Look at the military, which is another example of everyone paying in but small groups receiving outsized benefits on many different fronts.

> Social safety nets help people get on their feet, not prevent entire towns from being wiped out.

This is what FEMA is for.

> It's disingenuous to imply America's social safety net (which it doesn't have) has anything to do with this.

You can’t even form a coherent sentence here. You can’t on one hand defend the safety net from a comparison and simultaneously claim it doesn’t exist. If it didn’t exist, you wouldn’t reply.

> When individuals create liability this large, they are jailed.

No they aren’t. People in positions of power in the government do this all of the time and receive absolutely no punishment. One regulation change can decimate people’s homes, jobs, paths to citizenship, etc.

> When corporations do it, we pretend we never could have expected this outcome.

No we don’t. It’s the reason many of the corporate insurance programs exist (superfund, fdic, etc).
I noticed the exact same thing. In the midst of the protests, it felt like reddit turned on the "AI comment bots" and then just let them run. I rarely saw insightful comments or comments that aren't just repeated/reposted comments from the last time the link was posted. Reddit says "we did it" in response to the protest, but it really feels empty these last couple of months.

This was almost as noticeable as during the 2016 election when the general sentiment of the site went from Pro-Sanders to Pro-Clinton, literally over night. The tinfoil hatters blame the Correct The Record group becoming active at that time.

Along with the more recent changes of adding paid upvotes along with contributor rewards and then removing the ability to opt-out of ad-personalization, reddit management seems to have a one track mind. Profitability at the expense of anything, including the userbase.

> more directly compares just the pure power

That's closer to what most people racing in a straight line want to measure as opposed to who can hook faster: hence drag racing using a two stage starting position

No metric will every reflect racing from a dig on a public street between the random surfaces, heat soak (it takes one or two pulls for most cars to start pulling timing stock), tires, etc... and I don't think any publication is really interested in satisfying that comparison.

Interesting article but avoids mentioning (for a dozen pages) that capital gains are not taxed until sold, conflating that with income, and not mentioning that it is problematic to do it any other way.

This fact is well known among anyone paying attention. Perhaps not busy folks without any assets unfortunately.

We do pay property tax on real estate in most places however, which is one strategy. Perhaps time for one on capital assets as well. While unpopular, the alternative—that the 1% hoover up everything and pay no taxes is worse IMHO.
It's awful how many scams there are, and how many people fall victim to them, but on a somewhat lighter note, my grandma (age 84) loves to play games with them when they call.

They'll say "it's me, your grandson, I've been arrested in [foreign country] and I need money!"

and she'll go "Which grandson are you? I can never keep all you dang kids straight." Or she'll pretend to get mad and tell them they owe her money!

She doesn't typically answer the phone for unknown numbers not in her area code, but that doesn't filter out all of them. She's sharp enough that I'm not overly worried yet, though.

If you find yourself owned by, and not only from a 0-day, then yes, you wipe everything clean and re-build with mitigations in place from the start as to not get reinfected in the process.

That's pretty much the only option if you safeguard valuable data for your customers. Yes, it's expensive to get breached, so take precautions to make it a rare event and contain it as much as possible when it happens.

I don't think the article is unreasonable. This is cloud infrastructure sold to companies with defense industry contracts where breaches are taken seriously.

All life is based on carbon. The carbon that life needs can be traced to the CO2 in the atmosphere. It's a chain but it's definitely connected. It's a slow process and that's where the problem lies. We don't have the time needed for the process to be the only solution to climate change.
> People rent their networks from one, maybe two area options.

That's not the LAN.

> The consumer networks want to completely control router hardware these days and these days charge extra rental fees for owned hardware instead of rented hardware. (It's fascinating that they can legally get away with that.)

You can put your own router behind theirs. It's ridiculous for them to make you do that but nothing actually stops you.

> You may also be underestimating just how much time people spend on devices "out in public".

For which anyone can use a VPN.

> Applications have never been forced to use OS/network-configured DNS. DNS is an absurdly simple protocol that doesn't even have encryption by default. OS firewalls might block sockets to DNS ports by default, but there are ways to tunnel over other ports plus tools like UPnP given enough user trust.

Your local network can intercept ordinary DNS queries to any server and redirect them to your own. To work around this, a piece of malware would have to contact some custom server on a different port to do a name lookup -- but where does it look up that server's IP address? Hard-coding the IP address allows the malware's lookup server to be blocked.

But if centralized DoH servers become too popular to block because blocking them breaks too many legitimate applications, now the malware can use them and the user can't block them.

> I don't always know what to think about Cloudflare's massive PR engine of how much they claim to value privacy, but so far I've never seen them inject an ad where one doesn't belong nor have I seen ad revenue make a splash in their quarterly reports. They don't seem to be an ad company.

The question is, what are they doing with the data they collect?

> There's no free lunch and there's no right answer, just a lot of "least wrong" answers.

There is already a "least wrong" answer: Use a VPN you trust and use your VPN's DNS or run your own. VPNs have plenty of competition, and you can set up your own on any hosting provider, which also have plenty of competition.

This is basically the same thing as having Cloudflare do it over TLS, except that it's not centralized and remains in the control of the user, so is better.
Sometimes having a new and fresh perspective helps a lot more than you think.

My 12 year old hates math, but he's surprisingly good at Human Resource Machine and SpaceChem. It makes me wonder whether high school maths is fundamentally different from programming maths.

Yes, this has been my experience with AUs in Logic Pro, at least. You simply get a message saying a plugin failed and that you can try reloading it if you'd like.

Yes, exactly this. It's a form of a Keynesian beauty contest. That essentially means to make your comment based not on what you think, but on what you think will be popular with others.

I don't understand why or how you see my question as one made in bad faith.

Like, if you own a butcher shop and have a sign up front that says "fresh meat here!", is that immoral? If yes, why? Again, I'm genuienly curious.
