Unless I'm mistaken, your first complaint was fixed a couple years ago. Though to be honest I haven't played the game since that was fixed, and I never really learned the new combat system.

There's been some back and forth on Seth's piece - you can google if you are interested. Personally, I find Seth's arguments much more compelling.
Not always. I have a friend who runs a pretty popular Android blog, routinely mentions that at times, it's as easy as asking for a review product and it's yours.
Well , coffee-script exists because it brings some choice to front-end scripting.

If javascript was good there would be no need for all these langages that compiles down to javascript.

Anyway, i did not not the "then" trick with classes , like

new class then constructor:-> @param="something

Ha! Looks like we had a similar childhood. Especially solving problems by I.E.Irodov. Thanks OP!
Can anyone tell me the motivation behind TOML? Why isn't JSON enough?
I played in a similar manner, and had 0 fun after a point.

Which is when the entire "losing is fun" part of the motto clicked for me.

After yet more introspection I personally drew a parallel between me playing safe and how I approached many other things in life. And in this game, the result of playing things that way were directly clear - utter boredom.

All I had left were mega challenges. So either I play to build something vast, such as a new Morul, or I forego all those cheesy advantages and just let my fortress run and fail, and see what stories come out of it.

edit: of course my experience may have little value to helping you find any fun with the game, I strongly recommend playing without cage traps and danger rooms.

This drastically increases the challenge and the resultant successes and failures are usually enriched for it.

The idea is that at some point they (being the first line) succumb to infection and can be come the site of a persistent infection that in turns causes more sore throats and re-infections.

At least that was my experience. I was advised to take them out in my mid 20's. It does seem that there is correlation, now that they are out I get less colds and sore throats.

You could also move to the reddit forums for DF, they tend to be more newbie frequented, but you could always just lurk in the vintaged Bay12forums.

The app shouldn't know about the DPI being used by the OS.

It should be completely transparent to the app — this is not the app's responsibility.

The intention is to be easier for humans to read and write. Strict JSON requires a clutter of double-quotes, curly braces, parentheses and commas which have no place in a human-editable format.
Wouldn't the spoiler still show up in Google searches? An alternative would be to obfuscate (i.e. randomly arrange the letters) the spoiler text and then make the script de-obfuscate it on-hover. Just a thought.
Correct, but as you perfectly know, VCs are not about building companies that turn profits; they are about exiting with more than they initially invested, regardless if someone will pay "more" because they company is really worth it, or because its just popular in SV in this exact moment.

If you dig into YouTube long and deep enough, you will see it being "too crooked to fail" kind of purchase (most Goog board was against it; one of the owners is a family of a big VC name in Valley, etc).

Damn, I meant to submit that. I hope people take the time to click to the home page, I wish I could change the link retroactively. Maybe the mods will do it if this gets any traction.
Dear lord the patch notes for the upcoming adventure mode upgrade are staggering.

He's adding in climbing, trees and walkable/climbable branches, reaction moments - so you could be running and shooting - conversation systems that let you begin insurrections (not scripted but proceduraly handled)...Non-lethal combat!

His patch notes read like wish lists for entire genres of games.

Whatever people may say about the interface, they are missing out.
I imagine the issue is brush lag. because it's not a built-in digitizer it down't work as quickly as the surface, there have been a number of tests corroborating this, Gabe actually alludes to this in his review when he says "There was no brush lag at all and the pressure sensitivity worked perfectly." there is essentially no brush sensitivity with an ipad (though I doubt you really need it in math notes) and from my limited use (of friends ipad+pen setups) you kinda have to force the pen against the screen to ensure it always writes...

in a head to head competition the surface would win in note-taking though the ipad might win for the price....
Nice. Can we figure all this out all these things before we get too far with this? https://github.com/mojombo/toml/issues/42
> she would be 'allowed' to breast feed her child.

It seems that was also the thought in the 70s to mid 80s in in US. My mother in law for example (as a retired nurse even!) thinks breastfeed is "disgusting" and how "it can kill babies because they can get smothered". I was just floored when I heard that from her telling it to my wife. Now we didn't listen of course to such crazy talk. But I wonder where it came from. One suspicion is lobbying and re-education campaigns of formula manufacturers. What better way to make a pretty penny than convince women to stop feeding their children like they have since the dawn of time and instill in them the belief that it is "disgusting" and "animalistic". It would take an enormous drive and a sustained campaign to do that. But I don't really have any other explanation for it.
How is SSD Changing Software Architecture?
Is anybody else finding this sudden hypchondria and mass hysteria over gluten terribly tiresome? Or like all food fads, like bran, should I just sit tight for another couple years for it to pass and things go back to relative normal?

Here's how you know if you really have Celiac disease. If you eat a little bit of food that contains gluten, you curl up in a ball and want to die as your small intestine slowly necrotises itself. And you eventually find yourself in the ER with a surgeon removing a meter or two of your bowel.

Does gluten make you sleepy? Not celiac
Adhd symptoms? Not celiac
bloated? Not celiac

stuffy nose? Menstral cramps? Muscle weakness? Headaches? Blurry Vision? Arthritis like symptoms? Not celiac.

Really, unless you feel like you just got shot with a gun, it's not Celiac. I'm not saying laying off of gluten may or may not help you with those things, but it's not celiac.

Please stop insulting people who actually suffer from celiac by claiming your bloated loose stools are a sign that you too have joined the swelling ranks of one of the rarest genetic diseases in the world.

As i’ve noticed in repository readme, Chrome coffeescript addons cannot
manipulate DOM or play nicely (or even reasonably) with window properties. They’re just shortcuts for coffeescript.org, which just compiles coffee down to JS. This seems useless to me, because I want coffeescript as first-class browser citizen.

So the keyboard covers/cases and the typing, those people are just pretending right?
all these "make for beginners" tutorials i've seen point out (correctly) how make is, at its most basic, just a dsl for specifying a dag.

it seems to me that it would be pretty useful to have a tool that let you build up said dag graphically, perhaps dragging and dropping files from an explorer pane, and then generated a makefile under the hood.

add in simple "infinite undo" git support that checkpointed every time you built with new inputs, and you'd have a dead simple way for non-programmers (who nonetheless have to do some programming to work with their data) to get the benefits of programming best practices. does such a tool exist?
Yeah, the issue is space and weight, apple showed that by removing customizability they can significantly reduce the size and weight as well as provide better battery life and nicer looking designs, and when it comes to tablets most people opt for lighter and smaller over replaceable parts.
Thank you for making this distinction. I've had to sit no less than four close friends and family members down and have a long talk with them about this distinction as they all thought they had caught a sudden case of Celiac. Some in their 50s.

sigh
This was just an idea.. I couldn't find anyone else trying to solve this issue. But .. give it a go. Seems to me that would only work for text though.
Nothing is mentioned about robots. It certainly makes sense to use them closer to customers and where wages are higher. It is also easier to run a factory with robots 24 hours a day 7 days a week at times leading up to product launches.

Yup, the game author's first effort Arm0k God of blood (or something on those lines) had a GUI and graphics.

After being disappointed with how that worked out, he decided instead to work on a world generator and fantasy story creator.

Since entire sections of game aren't in yet, and can only be expected hopefully by 2020, the idea of making an unified interface along with having graphics was dropped.

This has led to several happy and unhappy coincidences. Firstly the constant griping about how its hard to understand, both from a UI and a graphics perspective.

Secondly its created a great/stellar/benchmark setting gaming community, because its difficulty has acted as an inherent gating/filtering mechanism.
it's not because of the low employee "churn", it's because Foxconn has put a freeze on hiring.

People see "hiring freeze" and instantly associate that with slowing down production or growth.
Wow, this is huge. No longer do we, the people, have to let the in crowd decide what we get to see. This is real validation for this new form of financing, when will a kickstarter film get best film?
Bigger problem is that I can't rest my hand on the screen while writing like I would on an actual notebook. There are some apps that try to filter it out but (in my anecdotal experience) they still miss enough to make it not worth the effort.

Writing towards the bottom might alleviate that but it's still like a hack around the fact that natural handwriting on capacitive screens is difficult.
Americans tend to go through sudden waves of sick food fads, where perfectly healthy people, eating perfectly healthy food are suddenly struck by a kind of mass hysteria that some basic food staple we've been consuming just fine for tens of thousands of years is suddenly the source of all of our health problems.
You should note that there's a huge gap in the definition in the English language between "trolling" and "defending".

Also, stop putting your words into other people's mouth. Who here is advocating Python indentation as a cure-all? Point is, you can talk about Ruby all you want, but when you diss on Python indentation, you'd better back up your opinions with facts instead of substituting your opinion as facts.

The only valid reason to diss on Python indentation is if you find yourself constantly writing really long functions in multiple nested blocks. You'll have trouble seeing which block you are closing the further down you go.

Now we are done defending, I still haven't seen a valid argument against Python whitespace, or people who have the guts to say they just don't like it.
That couldn't be more stupid. There's a very simple reason why startups target rich consumers - it's because they have money, and without it, resource constrained startups die.

Important problems are for NGOs, national governements, hundred billion dollar universities and international organizations to solve. The very reason problems so important still exist is for the fundamental reason that they require huge amounts of resources over many years at little to no return on investment to the business.

Going after "important problems" as a startup is a very fast way of becoming bankrupt.
So what? you are doing it wrong.

there are lot's of people that use PHP for data crunching and bash for GUI and C without caring for managing memory properly.

should we retire all languages that can be abused?

also, your idea of how $ and $$ is wrong. but it could be that you messing up with = and := before that point :) so i guess your point stands. but again, all languages can be abused.

blame the bad coder, not the tool.
Your comment is offensive.

Many people who are not Celiacs experience deleterious effects as a result of gluten consumption none the less. It's called gluten intolerance.

Awareness of how gluten can be the underlying cause of many subtle and low-grade health problems has only begun to spread in the past few years.

Labeling the sudden realization that gluten is something that A LOT of people shouldn't be eating as "hypochondria and mass hysteria" is ingnorant.
No designer would really like to design for or see their designs printed on low quality paper, and I think the same goes for the web.
Actually many "video cdns" rely on redirects at the HTTP level and don't work at the DNS layer at all. That's quite different to a normal CDN (where your comments do apply).

Eg, The Jetstream CDN: http://www.jet-stream.com/
If you think gluten intolerance is a fad then you're grossly mistaken.

Then again saying

"Here's how you know if you really have Celiac disease. If you eat a little bit of food that contains gluten, you curl up in a ball and want to die as your small intestine slowly necrotises itself. And you eventually find yourself in the ER with a surgeon removing a meter or two of your bowel."

pretty much discredits anything you have to say on the subject.
PLEASE NOTE that not all people with celiac disease experience -- at least initially -- gastrointestinal pain. Lack of pain is not a conclusive negative indicator.

I don't want to throw people into a panic, and I don't know the percentages, but I do recall reading that some cases of celiac disease can be relatively or completely pain free.

No, that doesn't mean "everyone" has the disease. Just that, when considering whether to make a diagnosis, pain is not a conclusive factor. (IANAD, and this is to the best I recall from some fairly casual and brief reading.)
DF is a fantastic game, and one worth taking some time to explore if you have a weekend to burn when friends and family are out of town, or you're just feeling like being a shut in. It is an excellent example of a "forever project" and one that has gained some quite a fanbase, but as you get deeper in, you will be frustrated by some things.

The game is designed by 2 brothers, and coded completely by one of them. This has led to a game with immense scope, and tons of features, but with most of them lacking polish. Its also led to performance problems, as adding new features is vastly more important than optimizing existing ones. The game is single threaded, outside of some of the gui, and processors aren't really getting any faster. Eventually you'll get frustrated and kill your fortress due to FPS slowdown. This could happen from your fort growing to a large number of dwarfs, or you playing too much with things that flow (lava, water), etc.

There have been quite a few offers by fans of the game to help with the code, but Toady One is adamant about keeping the source closed and being the only developer.

So play, enjoy, and be impressed with what one guy and a lot of Mountain Dew can accomplish, but be aware that you're playing in what is essentially someones (amazing) lifetime art project.

PS: Dwarf Therapist and DfHack make the game much more playable and get around a lot of the interface quirks. If you're going to get started playing I'd recommend them.
Not sure about Debussy, but this clip you posted reminds me of Für Alina by Arvo Pärt, 1976.

No, it requires me to purchase a completely separate cable TV subscription.

I don't have, can't get, and don't want a US cable TV subscription. Even if I lived in the US, I wouldn't want to have to pay $100 a month for cable TV just for the privilege of paying an additional fee to stream HBO. (Feel free to now call me "selfish" or "entitled" or whatever the rest of the trolls in this thread have settled on to describe the actions of rational people.)

Fantastic work, looks really sweet too. Would be great to see without the jQuery dependency if possible.
Worth mentioning that the "single phase" concept seems to be the same as djb redo http://cr.yp.to/redo/atomic.html which djb described (but never released) some 10 years ago.

apenwarr implemented the redo spec in python "to the letter", and also a shell script called "do" which is very short, and can be shipped with a project so one does not have to worry about having it installed.

That said, a quick look at fbuild shows that it is interesting, and despite a similar concept, very different from redo.
two things:

1) I love how in various TV pieces they make distorted reality - in this case by picking one woman out of random and asking her as to what she thinks about Apple - like that's supposed to indicate what the general public thinks.

2) Even if the public saw their computers as toys, this is a good reminder that the public could be mistaken.

3) Deal with everyone on your terms, it pays in the long run.
Related: I have a Samsung Smart TV, which has a number of video apps including (Australian) ABC iView

The performance I was getting was terrible - much much worse than any other device on my home network.

Turned out it was because I was using the Google DNS servers for the TV, and that was screwing it up.

The ABC iView app uses Akamai, which doesn't use the new DNS extensions to pass through the location of the client computer.

Changed DNS server and everything was good again.

Very entertaining looking at all the libs that have popped up to support TOML.

Has anyone looked at the Go version? For all the Go examples I've looked at (mostly networking) they are mostly short and easy to follow. I was shocked at how much code the author wrote.

Well, you have to take out resources from any other GDP you compare to.

Oh, and if you really want to be fair, you have to take a "world war 2 wasn't-destroyed" bias out of US and Swiss (and a few other) GDPs.

You can always find excuses, sorry, explanations, about why something is wrong. Just note that the US is resource rich as well - but it lets private hands take all the profits from e.g. oil, and just ignores e.g. rare earth elements.
Innocent is the first Kickstarter-funded documentary short (i.e., roughly 30 minutes in length or less) to win an Oscar. Very few documentaries, especially documentaries short, are funded by normal Hollywood sources. Most documentaries are funded by some combination of grants, the film equivalent of angels, or self-funding.

So yes, a milestone for Kickstarter, but by no means is this a milestone for independent documentaries or the beginning of a sea change in how films are financed.

I love watching how incentives drive so many things I see around me.

Looks like the operators have just realised that Android is commoditizing their services and turning them into just dumb substitutable commodity data providers.
I'm merely finding the exploding numbers of supposed celiacs really rather insulting.

People should what makes them feel best. If low gluten does, more power to them. But doesn't anybody else find it so bizarre that people who were entirely asymptomatic for decades suddenly break out with a case of gluten intolerance. The anecdotal cases even in my own personal circles are absurd.

People who complain endlessly about immediate discomfort after eating gluten magically forget to notice these same symptoms when they eat foods they aren't aware has gluten or eat gluten free food and complain anyway
because they heard that xyz has gluten in it When it doesn't.

Never underestimate the power of the mind in creating hypochondriac symptoms in people who have entirely asymptomatic medical histories.

Better yet folks who's mystery symptoms and strict diets change over the years at times that happen to coincide perfectly with changing pseudomedical food fads.

It creates so much noise that people who actually do have problems have trouble getting appropriate treatment.

In 5 years nobody will give 2 cents about gluten. the marketplace will simply have moved onto the next pseudomedical emergency involving millenia old food stuffs that don't seem to bother anybody outside of the country the xfree food is being sold in.
To me this sits on the edge of discrimination. Take the example of literature / books being banned from N. Korea, or the internet being filtered in Saudia Arabia; we criticizes these actions, how is this any different?
