I think it was a beta and not a demo but either way, it contained 95% of the game not obfuscated in any way. So I saw the ActionScript code quite a while ago!
The moon in-game also has a complex implementation. I don't think anyone realized this until the team porting the games to modern consoles pointed it out in an interview…
There is a hardware button on Subarus to disable EyeSight when you go through the car wash. Anecdotal, but the alarm before the auto braking in my Crosstrek (2020) saved me two times. And I was in the car with a friend…
I interviewed years ago with someone who let me know that they use a pseudonym as an employee and their chosen name even got posted as the author for articles they wrote for the company. They were very concerned about…
This is basically what iOS shortcuts is hoping to be. You can do some simple coding with widgets like that and then you can invoke your shortcut like `hey siri, <shortcut>`. Avoids reciting the steps you want and gives…
I made a few Atmosphere packages back in the day, some of them had a good # of users. Aggregate database queries using Meteor (at least as of 1.0) would create an immense amount of backend overhead if you queried…
True enough overall, but I'm surprised no one has let you know that NPM actually doesn't allow you to delete packages anymore (after the left-pad controversy). You have to email them and then you are judged by how many…
Thanks for posting this. An acquaintance of mine did this job 6 years ago and I wasn't sure if it still existed. Crowd-sourced humans are making Google appear more intelligent than they actually are. I always envisioned…
In the 2010s, there were a lot of posts about how C# could never even match F# even in 30 versions from that time. But then C# started adding compiler flags that allow a redo of past suboptimal decisions (nullable…
Wow Hackernews never ceases to amaze me, I enjoyed this. TIL I missed my 1 billionth second. You should also make a programmer mode, one that shows you powers of 2 (like 1024 days old)
I only ever use it for date math For whatever reason, I like keeping track of 1000 day anniversaries https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1000+days+after+today Shortly before any kind of 3rd anniversary or birthday I…
Yes it will have to do that. Some packages .npmignore the source files so those may not even be present. But doing that is actually easier than having to deal with all the different ways of versioning packages. For…
Semi-related: Microsoft is going to be (or has begun) checking for differences between published npm packages and their source control. I got a PR in my repository a few days ago leading back to a team trying to make it…
Wishing you hadn't worked so hard on your deathbed in your 80s is something people say after they have already saved enough money to live out their post-career life. When you're in your youth working, you have no idea…
Does your roadmap include directly detecting against pg_stat_statements? Most of these tools go against the stats tables in the database directly ('SQL Doctor' from Idera comes to mind, that product is very solid)
One super minor thing you may want to change that may help clarify things for both companies and employees (mostly companies) : > Jobs are tailored to your location and skills I live near a metro area and have been…
Hey just registered, really neat. You don't support 'popular times' results for local places. This may not even exist in your area so you may not be aware of it. I've always really wanted to make a terminal app to keep…
The article is confusing about the details. "Last Impact" never got a takedown notice and PC Gamer even wrote an article about it (as well as Nintendo clearly being aware of Kaze). As I said, there is a lack of…
They seem to really hate direct ports of their work. Curiously, there is a thriving Super Mario 64 rom hacking community that is rarely hit with notices. Afaik, no one really knows why. There are 100+ games and even a…
Netlify does this for free along with a path to hosting larger sites as well. I found them via HN and have seen them recommended here many times.
I just started using cron to keep my cloud functions warm at a cost of pennies per month. It feels like a strange ceremony to let more knowledgeable people game the system. Even figuring out the time that your functions…
Not sure why no one has mentioned ClojureScript to you, it has first class support and is supported first party by the Clojure team
Snapchat is the only social media that actually celebrates the impermanence and general boringness of everyday life. Instagram and Facebook may have stories but the site is heavily predicated on pride/narcissism arms…
Hey Rich, your hackernews clone doesn't perform all that well globally https://testmysite.io/5a4c2cdf819876444fa127b5/hn.svelte.tec... I really like Svelte! But I don't even serve my content from Express middleware…
I always respond to linkedin inmail because you're going to get deranked in employer searches if you don't. Paying to contact someone is a decent gatekeeper and means they were at least somewhat serious. I don't…
