I remember typing something similar (but probably more seditious) on the computers at every store I came across and watching the staff not know how to turn it off. Probably a jerk move in retrospect, but how can you work in a computer store

I think it would be reasonable to have a Rogue-like with a narrative if the death of your character did not mean the death of the world. Maybe dying would mean that you had a new character in the same world. Omikron: The Nomad Soul had a

What I am graciously anticipating is the Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup analogue of Dwarf Fortress.

Oh, even the weird pieces turn out to be more malleable than you might first imagine. I've even seen a game based on making LEGO robots by using surprising combinations of pieces ( http://mobileframezero.com/mfz/ ). That's inspired me to

It would tickle me if they released HL3 on Linux first. That might drive quite a bit of Linux adoption.

Sure, I am also happy that there is some regulatory body at all, but without consistent testing criteria and regulatory standards, it simply cannot be as effective. I worked with a programmer who had designed a watch that had an array of

To the best of your knowledge, would it be illegal (notwithstanding any copyright claims) to produce an interface that would make FDA compliance easier? Examples: - a website that republishes FDA information in a far easier to grok manner (

I agree with the graffiti comparison. I think Graffiti is preferable, also, because its characters seem to be faster to draw than the 8pen (to this day, I still write my capital Es like I'm using my Palm Zire).

I've been interested in Haxe for some time, but I've never really felt the urge to start anew. I have released a few AS3 games using a loose common engine. It was relatively painless to port from AS3 to pure JavaScript. I think it's time

Every day, I am more appreciative of the work the mrdoob is doing to further browser-based 3d work.

I use Bandcamp from the other side, and it is a fantastic service. They not only know the music industry from the inside out (read "Bandcamp for Drummers"), but I've literally never had any problem with their site's functionality.

For a brief moment, I considered porting some of these to JavaScript, but then I read one of the program listings ... Nevermind! I forgot how painful BASIC was.

AGI and SCI are completely different game engines. Both the interpreter and the data formats are radically different. BTW, I've actually converted my fan-made AGI game using Martin's tool, and it worked very well. He really deserves a rou

If I slide it over to the right quickly, sliding back to the left doesn't unblur it all the way.

The most amazing thing about it is that they found an image of Mr. Crawford smiling, something I don't think I've ever seen before.

College class schedules (as well as registration schedules). Currently, even the best are buggy, slow and cumbersome. I have to take certain classes at different schools in order to fulfill my degree requirements and keep working full tim

A decent JSON parser is also only a day's worth of work or less in just about any language. My experience is that it is as little as and possibly less initial development and maintenance as a custom flat-file format or a really robust csv p

I don't know why people even bother with XML when it is so much easier to write S-Expression generators and parsers.
