Back in the day when i played the Witcher 3 on PC the first time, i noticed fairly quickly that my main focus was on the mini map. It displayed a navigation system like path to the next quest/POI. It took away all my exploration becaus

True. As long as you don't use any external dependency like APIs, libraries, databases.

I agree partially. Passwords are posing an indirect security issue. But in my opinion this is more due to the handling of those by humans. So many different places where you can login, you need 20+ passwords. These should all be very long s

Is there any detailed explanation on these points? I only find this exact quoted list in my searches. Seems that the original was also only a list of these points. "Give up blood sport" - Why? Did martial arts for 10 years, helped

One thing i didn't catch is how they are sure that this is "one" great actor. Surely some of these servers were registered with the same fake mail address, but it seems that otherwise they are spread around the world and pret

I once had a chinese colleague who came to europe for a few years. She always thought we were lazy for working so short and every argument i brought up about mental health and work efficiency was met with a: "but it works for us".

That's even worse. Estimated, highly subjective performance grading that decides over a possible future for a student? Not a fan.

I think that some of HN people don't like this. The more popular it gets the less quality (or more mod work) will HN comments have. But since the article is paywalled... maybe it's protecting HN :)

It seems to me that the article is suggesting that the last 2 years were exceptionally different. What I'm wondering is what the factors truly are here and what to do with this data. In my opinion these grades are there to differentiat

Is there any collector site that states what titles are Linux compatible and what are not? I'd like switching and gaming is keeping me from it. Browsing to all developer studios websites for my favourite 50 steam titles is a bit tediou

Please take this from a guy who is not in any way a finance/economy expert: Why does the currency have anything to do with the wealth of the bankers. Bitcoin is, as far as i know, a fiat currency too. The value depends on the believe (

They are probably pointing out that there could be a better way to kill/remove/move the urchin without releasing the spawn. Although it's very hard to get them off their spot and handling them.

It isn't. But change like that is exactly what you need to do. If it's good or bad to change it via a drug instead of mental discipline is another question. But you could change your food and eat tons of it. I am a pretty slim per

To this day I don't see how this "revelation" had an impact on anything. It's certainly interesting and I think it's inherently true (we're based of the same biology) but it doesn't change anything. Agent

Money goes to the state, which is outright alien to me. The fact that the company pays a fine totally makes sense to me. But the country getting the money and the employee just getting their "right" is a major flaw in this system

My experience as a developer is - people don't care about my status (e.g. "busy", "dnd") - people don't care about my communication preferences -- if i'm not blocked they will call, no matter the priority
