Games are still in need of a better language. I have some skepticism and hope for Jai. I really wish D as better C worked better in that realm, but it's missing a few crucial things. Rust asserts too much control over memory. I'm

The materialistic hn app is what I've been using for a while (and right now, actually). But i also saw several other readers for the site. Worth looking into one of them if you look at posts on the go a lot.

Survivorship fallacy is one thing, but I would say overall there is far more value to success stories where a majority of stories are failure ones. Generally speaking it would seem the path to success, varied as it is, is far narrower than

It's worth noting that the Nile is one of just 10 rivers which outputs 90% of the plastic that goes into the ocean. Some of the agricultural problems could be related to things such as that. https://news.sky.com/story&#
