Whoops, thank you!

I typed out a big comment criticizing the fact that the kid was also shown how to do the exploit, as opposed to figuring it out for himself. But y'know what? Good for them. That's step one to figuring out their own exploits. And i

I think it helps to remember that gamedev is supposed to be fun. I've been working on ShittyEmu https://imgur.com/xgEMj5z (Basically an emulator that randomizes textures, sounds, and art assets of n64 games, and flips

Bonus: The differential privacy algorithm is so simple. "When you're about to insert some data, flip a coin. If it's heads, insert it as-is. If it's tails, insert a random value."

This is awesome. Thank you!

terrible API that is OpenGL. Eh, Direct3D9 was awful and not at all rooted in mathematical convention. I think (0,0) was the upper left of a texture instead of the center of the upper-left texel, too. Granted, it's been awhile. Maybe

Not wanting his hundreds of programming videos to be whisked down the memory hole isn't condoning or encouraging racist tirades.

Sorry for calling you cocky.

It just takes so long . And sometimes you end up with the minimal api featureset across N platforms.

Here’s an example. I think it’s not necessarily a good idea to encourage children to take puberty blockers, if they do any kind of irreversible effects. (I don’t know whether it’s reversible or not.) Is this hate speech? Some would say that

I’m crossing my fingers the hate machine will fizzle itself out. People have to get bored with outrage eventually, right?

This is especially relevant considering YouTube killed Terry’s videos. (Losetheos, templeos) He had literally hundreds. For reference, pewdiepie has around 2800, I think. I believe you can still access them through archive.org. I’ve thought

if you're up for desoldering stuff you may as well just replace the ECU with your own one which is happy to start the car. I demand a source that teaches me how to do this. :) Orrr if you're in Chicago let's go figure it ou

No way. Having to program a router in bash seems fun! Send me your old router!

I'm not so sure. The key has to be stored somewhere on the car. Why not desolder that and examine it? (If we're going with "Theoretically possible," that is.)

If the original title begins with a number or number + gratuitous adjective, we'd appreciate it if you'd crop it. E.g. translate "10 Ways To Do X" to "How To Do X," and "14 Amazing Ys" to "Ys.&q

Can you link to any info about implementation details for objc? I’ve been trying to make my own language and this seems helpful.

It's interesting to apply this argument to those who lost limbs and want to use prosthetics. Does it make sense? Why or why not? (I'm not sure, but the answer doesn't seem so clear-cut.)

The sooner we get rid of the emotion, the better, probably. It’s a bit like arguing that chronic back pain is healthy just because it’s natural. It’s interesting to consider that technology might be able to solve this. How long till an anti

Saying the N word once in 2009 in the middle of a game is nothing like being casually and obnoxiously racist. I’m not excusing his behavior, but he never acted like that offline. He was a kind and thoughtful manager.

You're quite cocky. That's not an insult. I think if you cut your teeth on this problem for a couple months, you'd look back on this comment with some mixed feelings. When a system is inherently toxic, there is no way to make

Kay. What are the odds that some HN commenters are going to solve the same problem that has been an active priority for years of the people in the field? I can’t speak for Valve or Riot, but at S2 it was a concerning issue. There’s just no

Sure, but bucketing a company as racist just because someone said the n word once in 2009 isn’t productive. It’s like calling pewdiepie racist.

Spoken like someone who’s never played the game. Get ready to be banned for no fault of your own, just because your three teammates decided to report you for the lulz. There are people who post on /r/dota2 complaining that they ge

Really? The CEO does not speak for me, especially when it comes to that.

Yeah... all I can say is, he doesn’t speak for anyone except himself.

No, I assure you it’s uncontrollable. There are millions of games played per day on Dota. How do you propose to fairly evaluate each of them?
