This particular machine has been on HN a few times before (and with good reason!)

OK, the "everything is made of a million dots" rendering style is pretty neat. I don't think I've seen its kind before. I also like that it somehow ran perfectly on my phone.

IMO interactive in-world music peaked with Portal 2, the effort put into that was impressive.

Looks like the color is simply normalized so that one of the values is at maximum (255) and the others follow the shape of the spectrum. It's all very theoretical. If you're talking about what's physically possible, then you could just stop at "infinite temperature" instead of going into eye cones. Maybe if a body's temperature approaches infinity, you could get this color by standing at a sufficient distance, or wearing adequate sunglasses with uniform attenuation, or doing the correct safety squint like we do at the workshop.

They don't. If only it was that easy.

Assuming this is for websites, what's the recommended way of handling cache busting with this kind of setup? The article has a slightly awkward paragraph that tells you to set long TTLs for everything and concludes with "tweak these settings", which kind of sounds like "draw the rest of the owl". Might be a good reason to use something that integrates all this (eg. Cloudflare Pages, since you're already using Cloudflare).

Congratulations, your "review" is now apparently on the game's landing page. I'm sure it will drive up conversion like nothing else.

This is a fun exploration, though there's a lot of fuzzy usage of terms and missing stuff. Eg. the first 5 paragraphs are apparently trying to define timbre, yet the word appears nowhere. Same with harmonics, etc.

I think one of the most interesting things about pitch is that it's not well defined, it's a psychological phenomenon. If you could extract it from people's brains, you would likely get different values from different people. This is compounded by the fact that harmonics produced by real instruments are not exact ratios of each other, yet they affect the perceived pitch.

I like when people bring up Myers Briggs because it allows me quickly categorize them as "people who attach importance to personality types", and thereby make sweeping generalizations about them.

For fr/en, author Jean-Loup Chiflet has written a few books consisting entirely of what you're describing. The most famous is "Sky My Husband (dictionary of the running English)"

Is it? A quick look at the Mastodon / Twitter links at the bottom of the article should make it clear the author is (rightfully) proud of his butt. I suppose that won't prevent the rest of HN from getting offended, so maybe it's somewhat inappropriate. But not wholly.

We're using vague terms, but the point is that controlling the VM is not the same thing as controlling the VM's traffic, especially in the model where your OS is not actually hosting the VM (since Hyper-V is a type 1 hypervisor).

This is due to Hyper-V, which is being rolled out on Windows 10 and required for WSL2. The OS is now running as a VM, and virtualized programs like WSL2 are running alongside - these VMs can't control each other's traffic. It's interesting that a feature meant to improve sandboxing actually makes firewalling and VPN more difficult, in its current state. I think the the proper fix is at the Hyper-V level, which might need to explicitly manage firewall and VPN features.
