Hey, thanks for reporting. I could fix this by giving Mathic its own manifest.json file, but I'm a bit hesitant.

I'm hoping to build Worchle into a home for a variety of search-style games, so having the PWA open to the home page (which displays navigation links for all the puzzles currently on the site) has the benefit of helping those other puzzles (and the overall brand) get discovered.

It's a hard decision though as I do see the benefit of players being able to add specific games to their homescreen.

Another problem with separate manifests for games: since I'm using local storage for stats, multiple installs of different games on the site would also split up those stats. One install ensures all stats are kept together in a single homescreen bookmark.

Honestly though, I've been thinking about your comment for the past couple of days and I still don't know what the best decision is. It's a tough one.
how many you thought it is "Overwatch" multiplayer game? :-)
I find it interesting Bezos frames stress in this way.

I always have found stress to come from situations with high-variable, high-consequence outcomes. Examples include dangerous situations, performing arts, and one-way door decisions.

Reducing stress is then narrowing variability, reducing consequence severity, some combination of both, or taking temporary breaks from the situation.

What fascinates me then is that Bezos doesn’t think about stress in this way.

Yes, it is webkit on the engine.
That should be true for everything, if no one has written drivers for something it won't work. But once driver is added will it fail/updated for newer versions of Linux?
It's also worth noting that unique string != board state.

Proof: Both black and white could move the left rook pawn as their first move and right rook pawn as the second move.

Now reset the board and do right rook first and left rook second. Same board state, different game string.

In practice unique board states is a strict subset of number of moves but given how far off I was on my first assessment ... I wonder if we're talking about another < 2% hit.

All of this is dependent on an actual engine that can process the notation. There's apparently lots of options for pgn.

I'd also like to develop a heatmap based on statistical analysis. I'd imagine this would not only be way less than equally distributed but there'd be no way to slice the data to make it appear equally distributed
It's incredibly unjust that companies are punished for paying "protection money" (read: "pay us or we burn your property and employees to the ground.")
That’s how all huge tech companies become dinosaurs though. Upper management that is already stupidly wealthy (and therefore unmotivated) have the funding and patience to hire geniuses to build incredible machines and then constantly tie their shoelaces together while asking them to sprint. Examples include Microsoft and Oracle as you said, and before them IBM, AT$T, TIBCO, Marvell, Motorola, I could go on for a while…
This was my staunch opinion for a long time, but I've actually come around to the idea that many games are improved by having some degree of hidden information which is in-theory trackable by players, since it allows a certain sort of player to take their turn much more rapidly (i.e. it mitigates "analysis paralysis"). I don't think it's true for every game, obviously, (IMO it would be a poor house rule to make in 1830, for instance), but I've become a lot more willing to trust designers' decisions on what information should be public vs. hidden as my taste in board games has developed over time.

(For the record, I have no opinion on the value of hidden vs public information as a design decision in Catan.)

Agreed, punishing someone because they were extorted under threat to life and property makes no sense.

If someone threatens to kill your employees and burn everything you own to the ground - and you know they will - you're gonna pay them.

The government of Columbia should be held to account for allowing this evil to run rampant, not the victims of these cartels.

The feature size is pretty small for diffraction gratings. There are printer beds that will do the same to the bottom of your print as is done with this chocolate. None of the hobbyist models could get even close. The feature size is somewhere between 1 and 10 micrometers which is a couple of orders of magnitude finer detail than most 3d printers.

They are normally manufactured with other methods, but here’s a paper about printing them https://asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/IMECE/proceedings-abs...

So it’s possible, I’m sure they aren’t the only ones to try it.
>>> Across the road from my cabin was a huge clear-cut--hundreds of acres of massive spruce stumps interspersed with tiny Douglas firs--products of what they call "Reforestation," which I guess makes the spindly firs en masse a "Reforest," which makes an individual spindly fir a "Refir," which means you could say that Weyerhauser, who owns the joint, has Refir Madness, since they think that sawing down 200-foot-tall spruces and replacing them with puling 2-foot Refirs is no different from farming beans or corn or alfalfa. They even call the towering spires they wipe from the Earth's face forever a "crop"--as if they'd planted the virgin forest! But I'm just a fisherman and may be missing some deeper significance in their nomenclature and stranger treatment of primordial trees.

The Nvidia shield vs other 1st party SoC devices running Android (e.g. from S devices with Samsung SoCs or Pixels with Google SoCs) goes to show the short lifespan of Android phone updates really has nothing to do with the underlying hardware or OS.

Also the type of updates guaranteed for 10 years on ChromeOS are not the feature update type that require upgrading the actual OS, just security and bugfix patches.

I mean, is it so wild though? It's not like they're going to face any actual repercussions for this behavior.
idk, I see it the other way around actually. if you kill someone in another country, that's still bad, but it's not clear why the US government should be the entity that holds you accountable for it. seems more appropriate to turn you over to that country's government upon request.

whereas if you bribe public officials in other countries as normal business practice, that might give you an advantage over other companies that also operate in the US. if they have to also engage in bribery to compete with you, that seems like a much more direct harm to another US entity.
No, but you can

1. Write the new executable.

2. Rename the running executable.

3. Rename the new executable to the original name of the running executable.

4. Launch the new executable.

5. Exit the original executable.

6. Arrange for the new executable to delete the renamed original executable once the original has exited.

This is admittedly a bit fiddly, requires care if you need to preserve attributes and ACLs of the original file, and has obvious issues in scenarios where multiple instances of the original executable may be running concurrently, but it does work.

You also have to be careful to consider the ramifications of a system crash or snapshot backup in the middle of this process: ensuring the new executable is safely flushed to disk before it replaces the original is, under normal circumstances[1], easy (FlushFileBuffers); ensuring that one of the two executables always exists under the original name is hard (the Win32 ReplaceFiles API sounds like it should help here, but it doesn't).

The cleanest solution to the latter problem I've come up with is to use the HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\PendingFileRenameOperations registry key as a backstop to ensure the move (3) happens, if necessary, as soon as the crashed/restored system is booted, but this requires local admin rights (or wanton disregard for system security, i.e., changing the ACL on this registry key to allow ordinary users to write to it, and therefore any file on the system on every reboot).

[1] Here "normal circumstances" exclude cases where hardware lies[2] or users explicitly disable buffer flushing[3].

Searching for jobs in ML/NLP, I’ve seen many companies specify they want 5+ years experience in both natural language processing and 5+ years experience in neurolinguistic programming. Always gets a laugh. The poor job poster. Knows they need nlp, and there’s this thing called neural networks, but can’t quite understand what all these acronyms are…
That's insane and incredible all at the same time.
I have great respect for Terry Tao but let's not forget that while he won the Fields Medal at a relatively young age, he hasn't made any major contribution to math comparable to proving Fermat's Last Theorem (Andrew Wiles did), solving the Poincaré's Conjecture (Grigori Perelman did) or Yitang Zhang's proof progress towards solving the twin prime conjecture.

Perhaps for mathematicians like Terry Tao AI will be a tool they will rely on, but for mathematicians like the aforementioned, a pen, paper and the published research literature will continue to be their main tools!
Again, this is only possible because big ad (eg Facebook) MUST follow AppStore rules to have access to customers. This is why I love the Apple walled garden.

That shouldn't compile (or it should be an IDE error in interpreted languages). That doesn't seem to be the fault of operator overloading.
totally agree. it was revolutionary at the time for the number of enemies on the screen. even at the time the vibe was very much, “croteam knows what they’re doing”.

really neat to be reading about this so many years later.
I think what you say is true, yet some base research takes time. If you have a “ship it” attitude, you might push teams towards taking smaller bets that they know are within reach? I don’t know how the transformer breakthroughs at Google/DeepMind happened, and it’s likely they were “shipping” things internally, but it seems clear that the people on those teams were working in a very different environment than what the author is describing.

If you look at all the defining products of Apple, they also took years from the “germ of an idea” until they could be launched, and though they might have “shipped” internally, they gained a lot by not having pressure to ship things piecemeal to customers.
It is clear that most HNers aren't reading the article. This has nothing to do with the UFC's "banana republic" atrocities, and seems to be a rather unjust situation:

- Chiquita was forced to pay "protection money" to the AUC. Read: "pay us or we kill your employees and burn your plantations to the ground."

- Chiquita makes the payment and alerts the Department of Justice that they were forced to pay under duress.

- The AUC kills 8 people, as cartels tend to do.

- Chiquita is held accountable.

This does not seem reasonable: First you get extorted at threat to life/property, then you get punished for getting extorted. Furthermore, it's tenuous at best to say "8 people died because you paid the AUC." The AUC kills/maims/tortures children every day for fun. This is not an exaggeration, most people will never comprehend the sheer evil of these organizations.

Calling for the execution[1] of Chiquita execs as some HNers are doing is absurd. Should Chiquita just let their employees get tortured to death and watch their properties burn to the ground?

Perhaps the government of Columbia itself should be responsible for not exterminating its cartels, and instead allowing them to infiltrate the deepest ranks of its military and government.

Custom silicon is fantastic when things have stabilised and you know exactly want you want. But things are still evolving fast in real time and in that environment, whoever can move fastest to be ultra flexible and deploy the latest architecture as soon as possible is the winner. I think in a nutshell, that is the story of Nvidia's success here : they created a GPGPU platform with just the right level of abstraction to capture the market for AI research.

“The only lab leak scenario that fits is just someone going straight from the lab to the market”

So, let’s just assume there was an infected scientist from the Wuhan lab, but instead of him/her going to the Wuhan wet market, they went to another market 800 meters from the lab, and that was the source of the outbreak. These talking heads would then be telling me the same infinitesimal probability of it coming from the Covid lab.

The people with access to a known Covid source are literally 800 meters from the Wuhan wet market.

An asymptomatic scientist walked to the Wuhan market, spent some time at one stall, and then went home. I find no improbable scenarios there.
> We took too long to add management.

I'm not saying they're wrong. I am saying I've never once seen a situation where adding more managers would improve velocity. I can imagine that such a thing exists and I have nothing whatsoever against the notion of leveling up their leadership. I just haven't personally seen it.

> Some different roles and expertise are needed for the next part of our journey.

Yes, starting from the CEO. He was the one who built a company structure that wasn't equipped to meet its needs. It's clear their senior leadership isn't as good at their jobs as all those newly unemployed ICs were at theirs.

I would expect a landing page to show summaries. Largest organizations impacted in last 7 days, most active exploit, etc. Instead all I see are events - apparently including tweets as a source - with minimal context. Just do what you advertise. Show me the latest breaking info from the dark web. Who is impacted, how much, and what was the vector? Better to be sorted by magnitude of impact rather than strictly chronologically. Bonus points if you consider when the user was last logged in to your platform: for people that last viewed your content a month ago, here are the biggest events from the last month. Same for weekly, daily frequencies.

That said, love the initiative and focus on this space and there’s probably an opportunity to sell your data to hedge funds.

> there's a tonne of work that goes into making sure it works with ..say.. a random three year old laptop with all the binary blobs in place.

But that work gets done and "users" of Ubuntu or Debian or Arch get to use it from the sources they trust (aka Ubuntu, Debian or Arch). I'm not claiming to have a full understanding of how every package or kernel module Debian or Arch or Fedora ships works. But I'm trusting Debian or Arch or Fedora for my packages. If it comes to light that debian or fedora maintainers had no idea that they shipped a malware in a release, then I'll seriously question going with that distribution in the future. And without sounding facetious, that has happened multiple times in past especially with debian. But the times it happened it was clear to me that it was merely a mistake rather than extreme incompetence or malice.

With Android, you have Google, which despite the general HN rhetoric I personally trust to not ship straight up malware. But when we're talking about Android that's not what we're talking about. We're often talking about binary ROM blobs from random XDA or RW users. Funny thing is 20 years ago, I'd have shouted about what's the difference between a random anon on XDA or WZBB providing a ROM blob. But now I know better.
