   Yeah, I'm really excited too. Vic2 is my favorite concept of the Paradox games; simulating economics, industrialization, and mass politics like it does is a great idea, allowing for a grand strategy game where the everyday lives of you

   There are a good few time loop games that have come out recently; Outer Wilds (as previously mentioned), Deathloop, The Forgotten City, and Returnal all come to mind. More broadly, a lot of roguelikes/roguelites are like this.

   I think Paradox's games would be up your alley, with the upcoming Victoria 3 probably being the best fit due to its focus on economic details and sociopolitical dynamics.

   That makes sense, thanks!

   If you don't mind spoiling your plans, are you thinking of continuing with the subclass-per-particle type approach, or eventually moving to something like a simple ECS architecture?

   Something I'm not clear on from reading the post - the documentation for the Apply() method on the Raft type ( https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/hashicorp/raft#Raft.Apply ) mentions that "This must be run on t

   Oh, that's handy. Thanks for sharing!

   For RDS, are you talking about multi-region, or multi-AZ? I know the latter is easy, but I don't think the first is, though maybe Aurora makes it easier.

    React by itself doesn't do that, but CSS-in-JS libraries are fairly common in the React ecosystem, and most of them have random autogenerated class names.

    Netlify and Vercel are great, but they're limited for deploying backends. You're limited to a FaaS paradigm with the languages they support, and if you need a database you'll need to host it somewhere else. It's a long w

    I'm also curious about this, I haven't heard anything in a while.

    I'm looking at the API docs and just seeing parser combinators and parsing-related stuff, like reporting/handling/recovering from parse errors. That's very handy to have, certainly, but I feel like I'm missing somet

    Rust already has Nom for parser combinators, though. This library looks fine (at first glance) for a parser library, but it doesn't seem like it helps with building languages beyond just parsing (which is what I expected from the title

    I mostly agree, this just seems like a case of a weird description in the HN submission. As it is... it's a parser library, the Github project calls it a parser library, and that's fine.

    The title here on HN seems kinda misleading; this is a parser library (and describes itself as that in the readme and github description), which isn't the only thing needed for writing a language.

    The Cloudflare blog entries on TLS 1.3 have some commentary (and link to more commentary from other sources) about this topic. Besides just getting rid of legacy cruft, simplifying the protocol helps limit downgrade attacks, reduces mainten

    How much intelligence/espionage work did Cromwell do? I'm more familiar with hearing about Francis Walsingham (worked for Elizabeth I) in that area.

    Point of clarification: us-east-1 is an entire AWS Region, which contains multiple availability zones. Multi-AZ setups in AWS are generally fairly straightforward, multi-region generally isn't. ...that said, one of the key techniques m

    Agreed, having examples is a big step up from the usual "Falsehoods" list.

    I'm guessing they're a step up in complexity, but the Football Manager series might be up your alley. Especially starting in the lower leagues, there's going to be a similar dynamic, where your semi-pro team just isn't g

    This is really frustrating, if not surprising. Jest generally just works out of the box for me with Typescript (and ts-jest), including coverage, whereas the Mocha ecosystem tends to involve wrangling multiple packages with varying levels o

    I wouldn't call those dependent types, exactly, because it's still happening entirely at the type level. The defining characteristic of dependent type systems is that they allow mixing of type-level and value-level expressions. To

    SQL Server has similar capabilities with sp_getapplock/sp_releaseapplock, though IIRC it doesn't work well in a distributed environment. I believe when I tested it on an AWS RDS multi-AZ database, the locks got released by a failo
