This is excellent. The levels that people come up with in Mario Maker can be down right amazing. Widening the possibilities like this makes me excited to see what people come up with.

I agree with you at least in theory. But the issue with web fonts is it's difficult to use them in a way that doesn't harm performance and also doesn't cause flashes of unstyled content. Every time I visit wired.com I find th

You don't need custom style sheets. One font-family declaration can hit them all: https://markdotto.com/2018/02/07/github-system-fonts/#the-st...

I do this with all my websites. At the end of the day, a custom font just isn't very important for the vast majority of sites. I do purposely leave Ubuntu out most of the time, because I find it's a pretty ugly font. I'm an U

React is very flexible and tries to avoid strong opinions, so the result is React devs have built up lots of their own opinions over the years. React code bases are almost always wildly different from each other, a blessing and a curse. I p

Optimized games have a well known impact on sales. I'd assume the same with trading software. Putting out a blanket statement that web devs are lazy is just silly. Developers rarely have much say in how much time they can dedicate to f

Is it programmer laziness, or insane demand for software due to many factors, mostly profit?

Oops, my memory was off. It's 10,925 pages and the last build took 18 minutes.

I don't think Beta really counts here. Probably the best example of Sony doing this is their Memory Stick, despite compact flash, sd and usb storage being readily available.

I'm guessing they mean rather than build a static Next site that generates 10k+ pages (or whatever large means in the given context), it instead creates one page that just queries the data from the client. I have one Next static site t

Many apps on Windows bring their own local dlls that no other apps on the system use.

Others in this thread have mentioned the proxying happens right when you open the email, so doesn't really protect you.

I recently added print styles to a site and found adding them for Chrome(ium) and Firefox was a breeze, and Safari was an absolute nightmare. I never did get it printing correctly in Safari, but good enough to be somewhat passable. I find t

It's possible to do ACE in Super Mario World on the SNES, and it's long been used to beat the game in under a minute. Recently a team used the exploit to play Super Mario Bros. They ported SMB to the SNES, and then used ACE to loa

There's very little actual substance in the thread. This wasn't worth posting on HN, and I am no Tesla fan.

I never knew Renderman is usable outside of Pixar. It even says free for non-commercial use which is pretty cool.

My 2012 MacBook Pro (the very first retina model) is 100% usable as daily driver. Only problem is it needs a new battery.

Physical media fails too, it's become a real problem in the retro gaming world. Optical discs start to break down and even worse optical drives wear out with no viable replacements. So piracy helps preserve physical media too.

Also a heads up, the vanilla fade out demo doesn't work correctly (immediately disappears) as in the actual code it looks to be missing the transition line.

Ah nice, I didn't know that. Thanks.

And it allows you to opt out when needed by starting the variable with an underscore, which is much nicer than eslint-disable-next-line...

Casting window to any in a pinch does work. But for longer term stuff, it's probably better to extend the Window interface.

I use eslint for things like catching left behind debugger and console statements.

I agree. It's also nice to know when you see a `handle` function, it is getting slotted into an `on` somewhere. Within the handle I prefer to call functions such as updateDate(). But this whole thread brings up something about coding t

That's basically what linq is. It's of course not identical to sql, but one big reason for that is sql is difficult to autocomplete. Linq purposely flipped things around to help with that (ie 'from foo select something'

Capcom's CPS2 system is essentially the same, a battery keeps decryption keys in RAM, used to decrypt the game so it can be played. This used to make owning CPS2 games a real headache, but the community has now completely nullified the

One nice thing about wasm is you can (sometimes) bring apps to the web very quickly. I got an emulator written in C fully ported to wasm in about an hour. To be fair this particular app hit all of the sweet spots of Emscripten, and you won&

Tailwind out of the box is a simple, canned design system. The Tailwind authors have already decided your color palette, spacings, animations, etc. This is perfectly fine for prototypes or anything that isn't that important. But if you

And I'd also argue Windows update being so bad is an outlier. I now have one Windows machine in my house and I'm astonished updates still take so long and also prevent you from doing anything else while they install. This is one a
