Knowing genetics makes you understand why and how you are similar to your parents. Knowing that physical and psychological state are linked, and that they affect each other. We have ways of introspecting one's mind and body and unders

As a Portuguese, I feel you. For us meals, especially lunch, are of the utmost importance. And it's a crucial element at work. It's a moment of bonding and team-building. If you want to make a team-building activity in Portugal, f

Yes, that is true. But, do we want people doing charity for the wrong reasons or do we want them not to do it at all? Related link: https://slatestarcodex.com/2019/07/29/against-against-billio...

For complex subjects I prefer reading. I find that programming made me absorb and create content non-linearly. I write a bit of code here, and then there, and then change a little thing in the first bit... I read like that. I read the book

Maybe your anxiety comes from the pressure to do the cert and not it's contents. Do you feel you're not getting it or that you're not getting it fast enough? The latter can evolve into the former. And perpetuate the anxiety l

The interview could've been deeper, but that would require more time. The story at the end is powerful stuff. I'm going to buy the book.

I also believe there is only one reality. But thinking that we currently understand it in its totality is complete arrogance. (I even doubt we can achieve it) An subjectivity shows us that that understanding is way harder than it seems.

Why not both? I believe Nuclear is a better compromise until we reach a level where we can go 100% solar/renewable. Meanwhile we need energy. I think nuclear is better that fossil

Yes. Lua doesn't have continue or break in loops. But it has goto. That's one of the uses of it. It also has, IMO, a sane goto. You cannot jump to any label outside of the function you are running from. https://www.lua.

That reminds me of Sleep is Death [0] It's a sort of a turn-based storytelling game. One player plays the story and the other controls the world and the NPCs. It's pretty indepth and well though out, despite the low-fi look. [0]

Playing devil's advocate, I think some lawyer got nervous about the licensed stuff in those games. The FIFA games usually have licenses to use the teams and player names. and lots of licensed music.

It WAS! Thank you. I sure hope the community can be revived. There's a lot more bandwidth and cheap storage today than 10 years ago. I'd love to be able to contribute and share to it.

I remember a torrent site for old games. You had tremendous community efforts documenting and cataloging games. Gathering every thing from the different releases, patches, music, art, etc. It was a gaming historian's wet dream. They we

"Cashless" does not mean "moneyless". Cashless means that it doesn't accept physical money, paper bills and metal coins. It only accepts credit or debit cards. Or any other kind of electronic medium.

Absolutely. I hate library/playlist oriented stuff. I have everything organized in folders and files, with good filenames. Since I have in my collection a lot of unkown, old or rare media, most programs are not able to find out what it

This. I was hoping something of the sorts of "if I like X game, I might also like Y game" Another suggestion, have more pictures of the games. Specially of the board, mid-game. It's a nice way to have a sort of feel for the g

Well, if the comment section (powered by facebook) on a number of national newspapers can be a sample, having real names associated with a comment doesn't do a lot to prevent nasty comments.

Why do you think the split was good? I think it had absolutely no effect on the site. And the work-safe boards remain "work-safe" with a huge amount of quotation marks :)

Do you mean that art must be pessimistic? There are plenty of "happy" and "hopeful" works of art. And I find that definition highly reductive. Art is not only meaning/message. It's also technical prowess. And
