> only one commercial-quality game (Crimson Steam Pirates) has been released in it. DFA will count once it's out, I guess, but that's a ways away.

Add Wolf Toss, and the WIP Shadowrun Returns. Both DFA [Doublefine Adventure] and Shadowrun should be done by the end of the year.

Regarding the bugs, I'm sure tat they'd be happy to discuss them, but it's night time in Seattle now. You can drop a line at their forums (http://getmoai.com/forums) or the Github bug tracker (https://github.com/moai/moai-dev/issues).

For the documentation, it is constantly improving. The API docs still have weak points, but the high level overview and the (now partly annotated) examples go a long way. You may want to check these pages:

Agree, Lua has its pearls, but I think, today it is used in larger scale projects than it was initially intended. Language-wise, I prefer UnrealScript or similar, with a "classic" OO and preferably with a static typing.

That's probably true when dealing with decent people. I think the reason lawyers don't recommend that is because lawyers are professional assholes of a sort. I don't mean that as a slur on lawyers; I just mean that they're experts on what an asshole could do, and they use this knowledge to protect you from assholes. (Or alternatively, if you are an asshole, they help you achieve your aims.) Clearly an asshole would take a sincere apology and turn it around to crucify you. So lawyers recommend asshole-proof non-apologies instead.

This is, incidentally, also the rationale behind never talking to the police: unlike aggrieved customers, police more or less are professional assholes. It's not their fault per se, and it's not a slur on police officers, but even more than lawyers, police are more or less constrained by the adversarial nature of the criminal justice system to be total assholes almost all the time. Actually, this asshole theory seems to explain a lot about the legal system, for instance why divorcing couples seem to be total assholes to each other as soon as they both lawyer up.

Your point is that most people aren't assholes, and can be reasoned with. Fair enough! But there are assholes, and eventually you get bit by them, which is how big companies develop lawyerly antibodies to them. As for politicians, they're all lawyers already, and it's practically their job to be assholes to each other, and if they slip up there are plenty of assholes in the press to make up for it so appealing to the people's better nature is automatically more difficult.

When education costs so much that one needs to take out a loan that then takes decades to repay, it must necessarily be job-training. It's practically impossible to justify otherwise.

IMO it's impossible to expect the education system to be more holistic and less training-oriented unless the costs drop to the point where it's realistic to pursue it knowing there is not necessarily a monetary reward at the end.
That's why I always distinguish two types of times: A point in time, and the name of a time.

A point in time should be stored as a timestamp (unixtime) and converted to local at the point of presentation.

A name of a time should be stored as a datetime column with no timezone and should not be adjusted by timezone.

The hard part is when you combine them: You have a name of a time (an appointment) and you want to correlate that with a point in time to match with someone else's calendar. The only way to do that is store the datetime plus the name of the timezone area (not the offset, the name).
I was thinking the same thing. I once worked at a Silicon Valley company where the CEO spun his firing by the board as a resignation due to a serious personal illness (complete with public tears and hugging the founders during an all-hands meeting). It was quite a performance, but not everybody was buying it.

I have to say in my opinion I don't think this is good advice for a developer unless you don't care about being fired, which honestly you shouldn't since being a developer is awesome right now.

Any employee should treat their ability to quit as a loaded weapon. Don't pull it out unless you are going to use it.
My opinion is that it is kind of a scam. If they can pull it off, I would love to be proven wrong. But so far all they have is a no-name development team that does not even have a website, and it looks like they just used a prefab engine like Unity to produce their demo video.

I've developed with voxels for over 10 years...Marching cubes is nothing new (in fact, I "invented" it on my own without knowing that the algorithm existed) - and how they model the world is the least of their concerns. Making an open world game of any sort is very challenging, and no one has done it that successfully to date (even Minecraft is still more of just a sandbox than a game, although I respect it nonetheless). Not that I would recommend against developing this type of game, it just probably not the first type of thing you want to tackle without sufficient experience (I should know, I've scrapped over 8 engines working on open world games).

Again, I have nothing against the YogCast people, but if they fail miserably it makes raising money for other Kickstarter projects more difficult.
One idea that I found quite haunting from Permutation City is that idea that you could set up a higher level controller for your running Copy mind that would periodically chose a new obsessive interest and then provide you with a rich environment to support your obsession.

As someone who is prone to rather obsessive interests (as I suspect many are on HN) I'm increasingly conscious of that fact that I can't directly control what I find interesting.
"If NaCl were widely adopted 5 years ago, the web would be much less accessible to mobile devices."

I don't agree with this. From what I've read NaCl isn't even getting auto-run by default. It is not trying to replace JS just sit alongside it as an application language. It lets developers target CPU architectures instead of Operating Systems which makes a lot of sense to me.

Also it's C/C++, any popular app would be easily ported to mobile devices.

Look how far JS has come in 5 years, imagine how for NaCl could have come.

On your PNaCl point, it may not be optimal but I love the idea. "Compile to javascript" is an awful concept, "compile to IR" is better for a number of reasons that I won't go into right now.
True, but irrelevant.

On a tangent, while this is a problem for this particular website, the issue is solveable. (See YQL.)

how would you improve it, honest question?
We had another prof (statistics / stochastics) who had no official course material and recommended ten books worth 1'500 bucks. We quickly realized that you could either write down 12 pages per hour until your arms were sore. Or that you could forgo taking notes and try to understand his lecture. But not both. After a couple of weeks we tried to split duties. After a month we started to photograph the blackboards. Then we wrote a small OCR program for fun and ended up with some form of script for the course.

Anyways, our efforts were pointless because the professor decided that he'd include advanced topics in the exam. Topics which were not included in his course and outside what his defined boundaries for the exam. I think most if not everyone of the class failed to get a passing grade. His laconic remarks were about how at such an "elite" college, you need to learn stuff beyond what is required of you.

I don't know, the first two years at college just left a sour taste in my mouth.
It is not just me saying this. Can you guarantee that the notice of something being blocked will always be shown and the option to override it given? Is there a law giving you that right? Is it valid in all countries where your trafic may be routed through and potentially blocked? No, I thought not.

I may see an interesting reference with a link to a page which will just not work. Firstly, people will not know if it is because the page in fact ceased to exist or the server is down or it has been blocked and by whom exactly and where? If it keeps happening, most people will just not have the patient perserverance and/or the know-how to keep unblocking such sites. You have to admit that at the very least it is bound to drastically reduce their hit rates. It may well be done to your website, perhaps because of some trivial filter 'mistake'. Are you going to get redress? Will you get your customers ever back?

Mission accomplished, browsing experience essentially destroyed and www turned into another dumbed down TV.
What amazes me is that Microsoft only stores the start and end of DST for each zone. They don't store the historical timezone changes. And DST changes - frequently.

Unix has had this for years. Microsoft have had close to a decade and a half to get this fixed - but have never done so. Even though Exchange and calendaring software is entirely screwed most times DST changes, they still haven't done anything about it.

I'm curious whether anyone has written DST software for Windows that is based on tzinfo?
I didn't call it a thin client client for a reason (because it's not a thin client).

These things are often referred to as zero clients, although even the details of that name are a little muddy.

The devices I'm referring to are the exact same thing, and these devices are the entire idea of Windows Multipoint Server, and can also be used with linux, although un-supported.

You are misunderstanding.

I'll start from what you said about arrays:

> because int a[10];, is of course a pointer

This is a common misconception about C.

int a[10]

defines an array, not a pointer. typeof(a) is int[10], and not (int ptr). The thing is, whenever you take the value of an array in C, it is degraded to a pointer to the array's first element, and this confuses people to no end that arrays are pointers.

For example, if we declare:

int a[10];
int *b;

Then sizeof(a) and sizeof(b) are very different. typeof(&a) is pointer-to-int[10], whereas typeof(&b) is pointer-to-pointer-to-int.

void f(int (*x)[10]) { ...
}

If you call:

f(&a); // will type-check
f(&b); // will not

So the syntax for declaring arrays is fine, and when you declare an array, no pointer is being declared at all.

This is C syntax for type declarations:

<base type> <type declaration here>

The "<type declaration here>" part uses virtually the same syntax as use syntax.

For example, if x is a pointer to a function that returns a pointer to an array of floats, you could reach a float via this syntax:

(*(*x)())[1]

You could declare x using this syntax:

float (*(*x)())[10];

The main differences are:

* Array size instead of index

* There's no requirement to dereference a function pointer to call it, but there is a requirement to use the dereference syntax to declare it.

* Array values can be used as pointers to their first elements (due to the automatic degradation), but must be declared as arrays.

Market forces should be applied - each set of traffic lights should take bids from the waiting vehicles. Whoever bids the highest gets to go through.
Same here, the keys are in awkward places.
From the article:
"Databases rarely handle timezones, daylight savings time and rule changes correctly, so avoid the database specific functionality all together."

The article isn't "picking on" PHP, it's highlighting that timezone rules are constantly changing (which is not a language-specific problem) and details how to handle them (e.g. using an extension that's updated more frequently).

I guess the reason why companies with a high application volume (like Google) tend to be biased towards "top" school and using your GPA as a selection criteria, is that it is so much easier to "cut the pile in half" and still have a decent number of good candidates, only the average talent might be higher. It reduces the overhead in the HR department.

That means a lot of smart people never get the opportunity to try out for the interview. In my opinion, you have to market yourself better and differently if you want to increase the odds of getting to the interview, where you get a chance to prove yourself beyond what is on paper.
This is a side point, but to me, it was amazing how well the video captured the usability frustration of our time.

Every time during watching the video that we're jarred out of the 'future', with an unexpected Rejected, first are offered an option but can only choose one with others greyed out, etc, it feels so much like the awful experience we all have using just about anything today.

I mean, even down to the error BEEP jarring you out of the faux-pleasant music. Maybe the video creator didn't have this in mind at all, but just wanted to make it seem 'realistic' - but they got the usability nightmare we live in spot-on!
Yes, however, if the pdf is huge, it actually creashes the browser (or at least, hangs for me). I never have such a problem with google's viewer, no matter how big the pdf is.

Plus, it saves you from haveing to download the entire pdf first before viewing.

Better languages don't special-case the constructor instead (no `new` operator), the constructor is just a class method. Bam, "factory method" constructors out of the box and problem solved.
The scrollbars aren't the most obvious cue you can have ;-)

The scrollbars are only one of many cues. I've observed lots of usability tests where there are scrollbars and people don't scroll because there is a natural break in the content. When the reader is unaware of the nature of the content they finish when they believe the content ends.

If you look at the 37signals page in contrast http://cl.ly/2W0w2M0w0m3z0d1D1G3r the entire bottom part of the screen is obvious "broken" by the bottom screen edge. Both the page ending in the middle of the text and the grey boxes that surround each option that are not completed are cues that there is more content. To even a very casual reader it's obvious that there stuff below that you can scroll to see - with or without scrollbars.
Great book, but I don't think the treatment of virtual hells was very convincing. First of all, the characters in hell would have gone insane with agony, but they just kind of wince it off and keep chatting. It reminded me of Niven and Pournelle's awful 1976 adaptation of Dante's Inferno, in which, for example, the macho protagonist grits his teeth and swims across a boiling lake.

Anyway, secondly I don't understand where all the devil-with-pitchfork stuff comes from in Banks's hells. Why not just have everyone floating in blackness and experiencing the maximum possible amount of pain at all times? To prevent them from becoming catatonic you just keep resetting their brain state to the moment of their death, so they're always feeling the first shock of agony. And it scales fantastically; just copy that small simulation a billion times and run them concurrently.

Of course, there will be some philosophical problems (are two identical concurrent brain simulations really two distinct subjective consciousnesses? If so, what are the implications of error-correcting server memory that store everything twice? And does resetting someone's memory so that the same simulation plays out repeatedly actually cause the person to experience things multiple times, or is it immaterial how many times you replay it?) but that will be of no comfort to you when you wake up in the pain box hell.
(If you were confused why the "Most X" column is not the same as "Least X" but in reverse order, it's because the list is not exhaustive.)
Can you explain how a "merge conflict" arises? Surely something can only become law once it's voted in, and a specific revision of a document is what's voted on?
This is probably an artifact of your keyboard. Most keyboards have sets of keys that can't be read in combination. For example, on the classic Model M, QWAS all pressed at once won't work properly (but asdf does.)

Unfortunately, as long as Greek companies don't pay taxes, Greeks can work as hard as they can the situation will continue to deteriorate.
Well BBC ran a show last night. And it did show the some reasons why Greece is such trouble today.

It turns out people spent like crazy, far beyond their means. Things like electricians driving Porsche's and High End Mercedes cars. All of it imported from Germany. When a nation full of people with government included involves in such spending it is but other wise natural that they price for it later on.

The anchor did explain that it wasn't just weak institutions and bad government policies. It was reckless lifestyle spending on part of Greeks. It seems many Greeks now want to sell of their costly cars, which are now believed to sell for less than half the price they bought it. So what happens? If they are unable to pay the loans and Bank take the cars. Banks still get only ~50% of what they lent. Its step by step collapse of a whole system.

In many ways, the institutions, like Banks are responsible too, for lending out money like that- unchecked. But the whole system is to be blamed. People, Government and everybody else involved.

On the other hand they also showed, Germany and how they manage their economy.

Now lets look at it, Greeks might work harder than Germans. That is no indication of why Greece is such crisis today. Apart from working and earning you also need to manage your money well. Why spend more than what you can earn?

Also scenes in Greece were heart warming, difficult to believe its 21st century Europe. Its almost like a third world country. People begging on streets, sleeping on footpaths, Eating from what is distributed. Couples relying on free clinics for minimal healthcare. As I said, only the Infrastructure looked grand. Otherwise it looked like a third world country.
No screenshots? some more info would be nice.

People get so attached to the idea of free will. What free will? You do what you want, but you have no control over what you want.
Because what we need is another Active X?

The fact that this time it is from Google doesn't make it better.

We slowly rid ourselves from stuff like Flash and Java on web pages and now we want to make the same mistakes again?

I know, it isn't bad in first place (Flash, Java, Active X weren't either), but I'm pretty sure we'll see better approaches.
