I played it on 3DS via emulator. The "redux" romhack vastly improves the experience (e.g. remove the intolerably frequent help messages). Not sure if the official Nintendo offerings have ever tweaked old games this way.

I do recommend switching to tea. Anecdotally I do feel better on tea than coffee, but coffee has a long-lasting addictive pull. I guess it's a good time to quit coffee again.

It's not uncommon to want to shut off the display independently while a machine works on stuff. It seems with Macs you can learn to invoke that easily in the OS but it's probably not "discoverable" at all. Meanwhile, dis

There also are cultural norms and/or enforcement around stuff like loud cars or trucks. I visited Asian cities recently and did not notice offensive noise. No crazy/rowdy yelling people, quiet buses. I slept in quieter neighborhoo

Chapter 1 of the SICP book says that the main reason it uses Lisp is its convenience in manipulating procedures as data. There is a "JavaScript Edition" of SICP. The preface says ECMAScript 2015 enabled a close match by adding la

I suppose it depends on what issues we should consider to be introductory. Maybe the older theoretical approach was more fundamental then than it is now. Like, maybe that was effectively more practical given the old hardware performance con

"Most people" don't get to choose, they're stuck with 40. (Or more, for some salaried positions.) The idea is generally "all of your time". In principle they can just not do those particular jobs. In practice m

The issue of boring lectures has been around a long time. Lectures of that sort seem somewhat obsolete anyway, probably it is more efficient to work in smaller class sizes with more video content. I greatly appreciated video lecture playbac

Speed (low moves #) to win is an important bragging factor in some roguelike communities. Can be part of the score. Or try adding a time->danger game mechanic like Spelunky.

A tyranny exercised with good intentions "may" be worse than all possible ones? Weak. So, that includes all possible versions of good intentions? All good intentions lead to torment? There are no sociopathic tyrants lacking consci

Agreed. The article displays a "me vs. the world" attitude and the whole thing aims to evoke admiration and sympathy in the reader. There's no evidence of any true human empathy. Who gives a flying f__k about his abdominal mu

Film grain is a funny topic... if it was the original look then it can be considered highest quality/fidelity to retain it. Filtering it makes for easier video compression.
