Mmh, impossible is maybe too strong.

> RimWorld isn’t the only game on Waylith. We’re working on something new! It may be a little while before we can share more details, but we couldn’t resist telling you.

I suspect Waylith is in dev since long time on this new project and they pushed it to make it prod proof before pushing the game further.

A statement about AI could be great, yes.

IIRC, EU have some laws protecting "interoperability", i.e. making a program work on other platforms. I suspect decompiling is considered as "interoperability".

Fun fact: In french, Github, is pronounced « Guy Teube », where « Teube » is the backslang of « Bite », which can be literally translated by “Dick”.

So to give an example, is as if English speaking peoples would use a service named “Davedick”.

Many executives consider managing peoples is harder than managing machines, and that having many people working together have a better value than a single person.

As such, many want a raise, but no-one want to manage peoples and have responsibilities that involve human factor (state otherwise, it is easier to be sure about the result of your own work than the work of your whole team). That’s the reason why it is easier to ask for a raise as a manager than a single coder.

In this case, it was precisely the act of "allow nazis" that led Google to its current situation.

People aren't stupid, but the fact that Google is in this situation proves that we should have been less naive.

> LVMH owner Bernard Arnault, who could take €1bn hit, says proposed 2% levy ‘aims to destroy liberal economy’

I don't know why what Bernard Arnault says is on HN, he has no competencies in economy.

No dumb rich-hate here, simply that Bernard Arnault is definitely not best person to talk about the subject.

The second sentence is also very good to see:

> Our aim is to produce timeless code that will be readable, understandable, and maintainable by programmers who have not yet been born.

I’ve never been a fan on ThinkPad looks, until I get a second hand one, in 2014. It had 4GB or RAM and starts to have hard time with browsing, so few month ago, I bought 16GB for 20€. I’m almost sure It could live for 5 or 10 years.

My only complain is Ctrl cap sensor having some inconsistencies, I have to push strong on it.

For the rest I consider ThinkPad as the way to go for second hand.

One of my most educational personal project has been to update a ten y/o mupen64plus OpenGL plugin (Rice) to OpenGLES for RPi.

So much code that looks weird that I had dig in a lot and finally understood why this tiny piece of non-sense code is actually what make the whole system working, and think about how smart the previous dev was and how dumb I would have solve the problem myself.

> Friends have told me that they’re relieved I seem “like myself” even after everything that’s happened. I don’t understand how that’s possible when I frequently don’t feel like I have a self to be. Jake and I became so entangled in these last few years that it still seems like many of my thoughts belong to both of us.

I can only recommend to read « Éloge de l'amour » from Alain Badiou (and Nicolas Truong). It defends love as a conscientious and willing alterity of yourself, but a non-controlled alterity, an alterity puts in the hands of another.

That’s why, I think, people does not help that much someone that lost a love saying him/her will be more focused on them-self. Because the lost was absolute part of them-self, and not something they actually suffer from.

I had the chance to work with Léo at its first job (Princes et Princesses from Michel Ocelot). It’s a wonderful guy, very fun and pleasant to work with.

TBH, the rest of the Ocelot’s team was the smoother peoples I had opportunity to work with.

To continue the analogy: Rock stars want to rock, not to teach music.
