I agree that it's misleading based on the title. On the site and in the text above it's more explicit about being a Zelda-like engine for action adventure games, and it looks like an awesome project. I clicked the link…
"...long writing was necessary only where quick contextualisation was impossible" Adler and Doren's "How to Read a Book" covers quick contextualization; there were techniques and ideas about this starting in the early…
Wikipedia is notorious in the video game history community for its lack of accuracy and vague primary sources.
>There's value in a shorter more targeted tutorial That's often true, but I was disappointed that this was little more than a rephrased version of what's on the Arch Wiki. I love the Arch documentation on the Wiki. It's…
This gave me a really good chuckle.
Have you used uTorrent recently? They've had an unshrinkable ad area in the main window for a while. Torrent sites are full of ads too; I'm willing to wager that there are plenty of advertisers willing to put ads up in…
How about a non-Apple App Store: something like homebrew with a friendly GUI that's easy to navigate? I started using Homebrew Cask recently, and it seems like a perfect workflow for the average user who just wants to…
That's sometimes true, but it's nice to hear someone with status admit they're not an infallible paragon. There's value in that, especially for those lower on the pole who stew in their own minds with assumptions about…
OK, but what's the value in that statement–what does "discussed" mean for him? Looking at the 2009 list, there are plenty of books still circulating in discourse. Asterious Polyp and the Dan Chaon, Margaret Atwood and…
I would assume that it's referencing cultural impact in a stricter (sub)cultural sense. The decentralized gulf of Anonymous vs. distinct hacking groups with points of view and identity is largely what the article is…
Right there in the article... Moz signed up with CloudFlare "but Mr. Skinner said the attacker has found new ways to attack their systems." Does anyone know what that might be? There are quite a few people on HN who…
This chart gets trotted out in seemingly every resolution-related discussion... does anyone know where the numbers come from? I've always assumed they were pulled from somebody's ass, but I'd be interested to find out…
That's what Wikipedia has, and the implication from this Times story http://www.nytimes.com/2006/04/05/technology/techspecial4/05... that it draws from.
Here's some good journalism with the same outcome: "Is there a time limit on how long someone can be detained? Do people have to unlock their phones, if asked? Do agents have to inform you why you're being detained? And…
Like others have noted, most of this can be generally applied to Kickstarter projects in general. Some thoughts from someone working with consumer 3D printers almost daily: I can't see disappointment (as he's outlined…
