I assume this is why the parent poster said "I suppose this shouldn't disappoint me". People shouldn't need a thank you email, but it's apparently valuable enough to at least one person to make a difference for them

I have the same thing and I think it’s because there’s a chance she might interact with you, which is enough to prevent you from getting 100% focused. Just having someone close enough that there’s a chance they will distract me is enough fo

There is this[0]. It’s C++ but the API is simple and it works well, you don’t need to setup any extra ICE/TURN/STUN stuff either. [0] https://github.com/seemk/WebUDP

It is pretty good evidence that they are resistant to hacks though, and speaking about interesting evidence that doesn't pass the bar of proof isn't some kind of logical fallacy. That's a pretty high bar to set for what you&#

The game using Wasmer is currently fairly early in development, but we have a few games in production built using various technologies, with the most recent one that I worked on done entirely in typescript. Both this previous game and the u

Yeah, that's a good point actually.

Awesome, I just upgraded our project! We're using wasmer in a browser-based multiplayer game in order to get cross-platform floating point determinism so we can send only input packets over the wire confidently without worrying about s

The impression that I get is that wasmer is more targeted towards people who want to embed a wasm runtime inside an existing application that they're building, whereas wasmtime is more meant to be used as a standalone program that runs

I agree with you about wanting a car without pointless stuff bolted on. When it comes to the things required to actually move the car, there's an interesting inverse relationship between visible levers and internal complexity though. E

Thanks for this very short but compelling dystopian science fiction story. I'm sure it will haunt me for a while.

I think that's more a property of the C# code that's out there rather than a property of .NET or C# themselves. A lot of (most?) C# and Java code in the world is over-abstracted over-engineered and life-sucking just by virtue of t

They kinda do rhyme with the right enunciation. How is that bad poetry or cheating? Language is complex and bending how you say things is part of good rhyme. I imagine historical linguists are very familiar with this and factor it into thei

With shaders this is often the best bet. You end up encoding some value you want to measure as a color, and you can observe how it varies over what you’re drawing. There are some pretty sophisticated step debugging tools these days, but jus

> The announcement of the new chimeras will no doubt be labelled “unnatural” or “playing God” by some people – but the same could be said about many scientific breakthroughs. An iPhone is unnatural. This is quite possibly the worst take

I think the important distinction is that negative rights are defaults. You are already not being harmed unless someone harms you. Whether law enforcement exists or not, you can say someone harming you is violating your rights. With the rig

by cylon13 5y ago
This lays bare a fundamental issue with positive rights in general: having the right _to_ something boils down to having the right to force someone else to provide it for you. Compared to, for instance, the right to be safe from harm. Negat

Can you elaborate as to why you think someone should avoid going to NA or AA because it's not "evidence"-based? It's essentially just a community where people share stories and support each other, not some religious cult

We're not talking about all women or my opinion of women, we're talking about actual women that actually complained about harassment and discomfort, which is the reason stated for the change in the linked article. Besides, it&#x27

Imagine being a woman and having to tell people you’re working with cock. It’s funny for guys but it’s not the greatest for gender diversity. They mention in the linked post that this is one of the main driving reasons, not a vague lack of

I find it helps if you have a hard rewrite rule. I really love the convenience of shell scripts for small scripts, but as soon as I have one that crosses 100 lines I rewrite it in python. The python version is a bit less convenient for spaw

Why should we force drug trafficking in to the underground, creating a black market and all the murder that comes with enforcing contracts within it, when people are just going to buy and consume drugs anyway? Because drugs are bad for you?

It's a pretty varied group defined around a negative. That's like asking whether atheists believe a specific positive statement about the world. That said, to try to answer your question, my guess is left anarchists would say &quo

Imagine a graph where the x-axis is how much you make at your job, and the y-axis is how much spending money ends up in your bank account after the government gets involved by either giving you welfare money or taxing you. So without the go

You're always incentivized to make marginally more money with the negative income tax because it gives you a monotonically increasing effective income vs job income curve, whereas some welfare systems end up with disincentives at vario

Just to explain the downvotes a bit, in case you're unaware, it's kind of a social faux-pas to say "I acknowledge that this is a joke" and then poison the mood with a semi-related tangent rant about something you find an
