The 1/20 update works well because it gives the illusion of tiles popping into view naturally as the lamp moves. This is a cool effect to get away with.

Yeah I want to know what my topics are and when they change, and if I can disable or fudge my topics.

I still miss i.reddit. I've been trying hard to get off of reddit entirely but it hard because the community and information subreddits provide is still very good. But the other day I noticed the reddit frontpage is just repeating posts if you continue to click next page...

I think the biggest hurdle for VR is being able to use the device for long periods of time. We can view our phones for essentially a full day with some inconvenience, but I can barely stand VR for more than a couple hours without needing to rest my eyes.

The lesson is don't send passwords over slack. If you have slack access can you easily get access to private/historical messages?

The issue (I believe according to the author) is that Cloudflare is now choosing to withhold protection for Kiwi Farms, taking a moral stance and should be more responsible for other moral obligations or none at all. IE. Should they stop providing protection for more sites? When is the next Kiwi Farms?

I don't agree with the author because it is still early (and the author might be putting Cloudflare under pressure for some personal gain in some rhetoric), but these questions are interesting and is part of the cancel culture we are seeing more of.

This is sick. What does anyone learn doing by working like this? Is anyone gaining experience from this? It just feels like people are ground down so they can't physically work anymore.

There's so much hype and expectation compared other software that it hits harder when bad software design appears in gaming. Bad software/project design still exists for regular software but users are more understandable when deadlines change.

The crab is a boss of world 5. But Mouser is still in the game at the end of world 1. I remember the crab boss being easier compared to Mouser, and thinking they should be swapped.

The fact they stopped a NA release of the sequel because Howard Phillips review is amazing to me. Today we see still have games being released regardless if they should (Cyberpunk, Battlefield). Also it proves the importance of play testing to decide if the game is fun for the target demographic. I wonder if Miyamoto took this realization to heart and that is why we see his games so successful.
