What problems are you referring to? Surely the problems can't be much worse than what you'd have with Flash anyway.

Wow. For what it's worth, I thought it was funny.

It looks like you asked this question about a year ago -- since then, what have you done with emulators? (Just curious.) Did you find it easy / hard to get started?

You are correct, however, consider that the quality of the work will probably be much higher from someone who is willing to do this kind of unorthodox pricing. One reason is because if any issues or changes come up then they'll be fine wit

Wow, really? I had no idea that attitude carried over to real life. I mean, I could make the observation that most Asians seemed to behave that way online in a game, but I didn't realize that they mostly behaved like that in real life too

Not sure why he's being downvoted. As an avid gamer, I can verify that most foreigners who speak English don't care enough to try to write properly. I'm not bashing, I'm just saying, from my observed experience, that is the case. For exam

Just wondering, do you spend a lot of time thinking about sex workers?

As someone who dropped out of high school to take a job in the high technogy industry, I can't really relate to "be cool, stay in school" :) What I think we can both agree on is this: selfish parents are a problem, and should not be allowed

I could not agree more. Thank you for articulating this.

Okay, I will concede that you are correct. However, that does not entirely invalidate my point. Because of my previous experience, I can empathize strongly with anyone in a similar situation. I don't think it's fair that if I were fourteen

Ahh, but I do have a problem with it. Please see my other comment in this branch.

Hehe. I know it's a bit of a stretch. But imagine if you were a potential employer and some young person wanted to get a job there, citing his internship at some other business as previous experience. You don't think that might help him lan

How is it not related, when I almost could not work at that job just because I wasn't "adult enough" yet? Also, tone down the pompusness and chill out, eh? I've been very pleasant throughout this whole thing, I think, and I don't appreciate

What? I didn't say that. I said, I think a minimum age is a good solution, as long as there are ways for businesses to hire underage gifted children. This would prevent bullshit like "Even though you're an amazing programmer and we want t

I'm going to cut this line of questioning short so that you're not subjected to further downvote abuse from dumbasses. It's really a shame we can't have a nice, intelligent conversation on HN without one side of the debate being demonized i

Cute, but it dodges the issue that it's hard to define what a "child" is. I think having a minimum accepted age, and a way to hire special children under that age (but with greater working restrictions) is a good compromise.
889.
by palish 17y ago
Okay, that's silly. A fifteen year old is basically a sixteen year old, so if a company wants to hire him, it's stupid that they have no way of doing so. Also, that issue isn't really related to the core child labor morality debate.

by palish 17y ago
While I can empathize with your point of view, I have to disagree. Children don't have the perspective to make an informed decision about whether they should accept certain working conditions. (I'm speaking as a former child who would have

How is it immoral to ban 7-day overtime child labor? Edit: Quit downvoting him you morons, he brings up an interesting point of view with interesting arguements and should not be punished for doing so.

Sorry, no idea. I don't know any details.

Consider this. It is impossible for matter to travel at the speed of light, yes? However, imagine a cannon on a train travelling (speed_of_light - 10 MPH). The cannon shoots a cannonball at 210 MPH. So when the cannon fires, you'd expect

Why would anyone bother stealing a cell phone? They're easy to flag as "stolen" and become useless at that point.

Nah, I think the expression came from car commercials that advertised "X miles per gallon (but your milage may vary)" to avoid getting sued for false advertising or some such.

Then don't post the comment in the first place, if you're not going to at least try. That's my point. Posting comments just because you feel that you're right doesn't help anyone. It makes the person you're talking to feel annoyed, and do

I just wanted to post that I completely agree with you madair. Good for you for posting a comment even though you knew it was probably unpopular and would be mob-downvoted. I think it's a shame that HN makes it seem like your point of vie

" I agree that the metaprogramming stuff in C++ is not something for beginners. " Or even for most programming problems, in general! Templates should be used when you are writing a container class. That's about it. Using them for crazy ha

Man, I wish I could somehow communicate that your commenting is not up to par with what a HN comment should be. You're basically saying "you're wrong because I think so". You help no one and you solve nothing by posting a comment like tha

Go to the IRC chatroom #gamedev on the server irc.afternet.org. Ask specific questions, and put up with people being frustrated by your lack of knowledge. You can quickly get the correct answer to almost any C++ question you can think of,
