Pretty big ask to have people just jump in. An itch.io style page would be nice for a preview.

> Yarvin's most cherished plan was to create a shadow university called the "Antiversity" -- a sort of repository of all truths unbeholden to politics and fads. Is this a bad idea?

Yes. That is a twelve-year-olds idea of a smart idea.

RE: that Neil O'Brien piece

Demographic collapse? Sure, huge issue. But why is this happening? Why did it start happening before the other issues?

A rap group being critical of Churchill at an official event? Not really an issue. I don't think that is why Britain is failing. And I'll need citations for why moral introspection is demoralizing rather than uplifting and enlightening for a culture. Or maybe suggest something that the youth should feel good about rather than browbeating them for not being thrilled at the state of things.

Immigration? Not an issue for the USA after the great depression, which also had a massive welfare state.

I agree that Britain is collapsing, but not for those reasons. What a stunning lack of imagination.

e: Also, are migrants really to blame for Britain selling off all of its state capacity for pennies on the dollar since the 80s? Did migrants vote to violently eject Britain from the European economy in 2015? Any mention of that? Or would that type self-reflection hurt the cultural morale?

Maybe Britain would be better off with people who are a little less integrated with those values.

IMO That example is way too complicated to be an elevator pitch. I'm trying to understand what working with your framework would be like for a web app, not the boilerplate to establish rules and state management of a small game.

The tutorial has a much better Hello World + incremental feature introduction, I'd put some of that before the larger example.

I worked on USAID software for reporting costs and results and there were annual and quarterly briefings IIRC. It was kind of a whole thing.

Also, Congress codified it as an independent agency in 1998. So.. that last part isn't true either. This stuff isn't hard to look up.

The placement of the monitor is also odd, doubly so because it is curved. Most sims will let you render offset from the driver seat (iRacing has keyboard shortcuts to make all these adjustments easily) but the image is being rendered from a "first person" projection a foot to your side. The monitor being tilted isn't ideal either.

If using an actual chassis the best way to go would be with a projector mounted as low as it can be to clear the top of the car, ideally onto a screen that is curved out from the driver's perspective.

Yeah, he updated the ToS when he took over to allow the Hunter Biden material.

I also have an LLC for software and didn't love having to put my address, since I don't have a storefront or anything either, but I don't think it reveals any more info than someone could find from having your name in the first place.

What the hell is going on with the little sentences in that example? I thought it was supposed to be like, a bad VC rap joke song or something? I was looking for rhymes. It's really lame.

Clue (1985) had several different endings sent to different theaters, which as a comedy was a pretty funny and novel idea. The VHS release contained all of them at the end with title cards to explain why.

If this doc is screening in theaters I'd imagining different reels/files are sent to different theaters, or maybe more than one so they can rotate them.

As others have said DVDs are more than capable of this. A VLC plugin could work, and Netflix has some type of tech for their choose-your-own-adventure episode of Black Mirror for streaming.

There's a narcissism that lends to every generation thinking theirs is the end of history, but I don't think it entirely explains anxiety over climate change.

That sort of sounds like the solution I was thinking of when reading this.. that handlers should only cache the signal received to be handled at the program's convenience, except for a kill signal etc.

I sent out plenty of resumes with nice cover letters to jobs I felt overqualified for over the 4 months I was just looking, and had maybe one response.. from a recruiter.

But I worked with a recruiter for a few of those months and they got me to a few final rounds. I think having a proper recruiter, who knows the hiring manager, is pretty powerful. Them shaving whatever % of the top is lame but it's better than being unemployed.

Making less money isn't a "loser mentality", for an SWE or anyone else. I'd happily take something that paid less for good non-profit work etc (but those orgs have always been really rough for other reasons).

Also, 150k for 10 years is great if you're working in government or somewhere local in the midwest, you're still living like a king and probably super stable.

What I don't love about the OP is the crab bucket mentality, not that they don't make enough money themselves.
