Oh god. I love that it's a move to market a feature, but it's so disrespectful of a user's expectations. Wonder if this kind of trade off still happens there or if it's just a byproduct of its time.

"Our mission is to make cool stuff, learn some shit, and make money in the process" would apply everywhere. But business has the veneer of being super serious and you can't say things like that. It's an oddity of how soc

In the next 10 to 15 years, tech is going to have a lot of millennial who reach 50+. We'll have a similar challenge in the US where tech culture leans towards hyping youth, and the new reality.

This site doesn't need mobile friendly pages. It's literally just raw text with minimal formatting. It's about as close you'll see to just plain hypertext nowadays. There's really no point in saying it doesn't

I would also recommend its often forgotten sequel, Children of Dune, which covers both books 2 and 3. Fans agree its a wonderful and faithful adaptation. James McAvoy as Leto II is just perfect.

I have a personal anecdote about the documentary. I am a huge Dune fan. Book 4 is my favorite of all time. I also grew up in France, loving Bilal and Jodorowsky's work. At the time io9 was the only outlet regularly covering the progres

The article here isn't about how psychedelics can help with ptsd, which is a well understood fact. It's about the results of a new treatment. "One month after ibogaine treatment, the veterans reported that TBI symptoms such a

A whole business unit wiped out in one weekend. Carta moved fast, broke things and asked for forgiveness, but the execution itself was lacking. A lot to learn from that. This feels like it could have been avoided had the CEO said they would

"In summary, while the research offers some indications of room-temperature superconductivity in CSLA, the absence of a complete Meissner effect and direct dc hysteresis observations necessitate a cautious approach to these findings.&q

It's incorrect to generalize like this. NPCs maybe use broad procedural rules, full mocap or really anything in between. Yes, this could apply to them. No, it doesn't mean it always does. This also doesn't really add to the p

Pretty cool. It's going to take a while to make it into a usable product though. Having conversations with people flailing their hands algorithmically is going to feel weird until it gets more natural. Right now it feels like those &qu

It's not "revisionist history", just a different take than yours. I detailed in another answer that the Game and Watch and other past handheld didn't offer a console-like experience or one that you'd directly compar

The video in the Readme is well worth watching. I expected some kind of clicking to enable the kvm and switch devices. This is moving your mouse and keypresses across devices instantly. While I like Synergy, a hardware solution would work w

Same inventor indeed. However the games were mostly just one per device, and basically all used simple "sprites" that toggled on/off. I think the Game & Watch gameplay feels a lot closer to an electronic toy from the earl

What's absolutely brilliant about the development of the original Game Boy is that at the time, Gunpei Yokoi's team was facing significant incredulity. "Why play games when you're on the bus, or on the toilet? It's

It's a great read. Sid is one of the all time best. In the end, after all those years, he summarizes his philosophy as: find the fun. He likens it to the opposite of "I picture the statue and removed the bits that didn't look

As a huge fan of Prince of Persia, I enjoyed the book, but it did sour me on Mechner's views at the time. He comes across as entitled and dismissive. He makes the game and expects millions, but really doesn't care about shipping o
