I think I misunderstood your point as “developing a game on Mac sucks”, vs “developing for Mac without a Mac sucks” which I absolutely can’t disagree with

Yea you’re right I skipped over the part where you said the final build required it.

Nonetheless that’s a small fraction of the time spent actually developing the game.

This is simply not the case. Every major game framework/engine targets Mac natively.

If you are building your engine/game from scratch, you absolutely do not need to use Xcode

Why will energy costs trend to zero?

Is this satire?

That is so frickin cool!

Thank you for putting this together. I live in an area that has terrible traffic patterns for pedestrians and I always suspected it had a higher than usual fatality density. Now I know for sure!

If the lesson you want corporate depositors to learn is that in the United States, any dollar beyond 250K in an account can evaporate overnight, than be prepared for a lot more bank runs in the immediate future.

This should not come as a surprise to anyone.

Your talking about some of the richest and most well cared for people on the planet, not the average person

that is correct.

and substance suite. I think people on hacker news mostly interact with adobe via photoshop and illustrator and don't realize how many hooks they have under their belt.

I'm sympathetic to your point of view -- I remember the "independent investigators on reddit" wrongly accusing Sunil Tripathi of being the perpetrator of the Boston Bombing and causing his family a great deal of distress. But the author provides a few salient examples of why relying on "professional investigators" has come up short:

The official report also did its best to paper over a number of failings that contributed to the plane not being found. In addition to the long delay in informing authorities — caused by missteps at the Kuala Lumpur and Ho Chi Minh City control centers, as well as at Malaysia Airlines — criticism should have been levied at the Malaysian military. Why didn’t they intercept the unidentified aircraft as it was crossing the north of the country? The military claimed it was because the plane wasn’t a threat. But how could they have known that unless they had identified it as MH370, rather than a foreign incursion? And if they had identified it as MH370, why didn’t they tell anyone until days after the crash? The most likely explanation was that the military simply wasn’t monitoring its own radar at the time that the plane flew through Malaysian airspace. But admitting this would expose a massive security vulnerability by revealing Malaysia’s military to be dangerously incompetent. Probably for national security reasons, the official report had nothing to say about this at all.

Seems like this is a pretty serious omission.

and

Zaharie’s social life was also not as smooth as Malaysian authorities portrayed it to be. A combination of the leaked police report and interviews with people who knew him revealed that he had separated from his wife on an informal basis and was living alone in the family home.

So in essence Malaysian police were obfuscating the facts around the pilot, for whatever reason they may have. Perhaps they concluded based on further research that the pilot was probably guiltless. But whatever the reason, we do know that what they said in public diverges from what they found in private.

It seems to me that independent investigation and open source intelligence of this kind can be useful when there may be reasons for the official investigators to cover up certain parts of the story.

Lastly, I think there is a substantial difference between a crowd of people online with no real investigatory track record accusing someone (a la Sunil Tripathi) in the days/hours/minutes after the incident, and someone with a proven track record of credible investigatory reporting and some subject matter expertise, laying out some mixture of facts/theories/conclusions (that have already been circulating online) ten years after the fact.

Lol this was pretty good I have to admit.

Are you familiar with the phrase "laughing all the way to the bank"?

When will people like you begin to realize how foolish you sound?

The article detailing the tic-tac incident has links to video interviews with roughly 15 pilots who made visual contact with the UFO, and whose stories corroborate one another.

I will say that there is a lot of pessimism in these threads which may be warranted, but it is good to see the judicial system beginning to take these people to task. Laws and regulations often move slower than we would like, especially when lives are at stake, but I remember years of this type of stuff going unpunished. This is a step in the right direction.

Can someone point me to the exact laws or cases with precedent that would make Apple and Amazon's statements illegal if the Bloomberg article were true? I'm not doubting it, but I can't find much about this online. Pump and dump schemes, ponzi schemes, and insider trading are illegal, and those aspects of securities fraud are well documented online, but this more general "lying to the public" that these companies may or may not be doing has proved trickier to find precedence for. I am not a lawyer, and my only resource here is google, but I think there is an assumption at play that this form of lying is illegal, and I'm honestly not sure that it is.

I could be wayy of base here, but if its not illegal, than it would be pretty obvious what is going on.
