aha. 'w' for work. got it.

Are you ok?

I'm...suspicious. 10 months ago this account was whinging about the evils of AI and this is heavily AI driven code. README claims to be a Norwegian developed browser but account is in Qatar. Andreas Røsdal has two github accounts, both andreasrosdal and andreasrosdalw, one of which has forked a project from the other or I would just think "oh two people with the same name".

Having the prebuilt client and art assets you hack and change on saves you million of up front cost.

The foldingideas videos about decentraland talks about this. "Dead" mmorpgs work on a small skeleton crew despite the original game having taken 100s of people years to make. Looking it up the turtle wow server was like 5-10k concurrent players? A lot for sure but bordering on that category.

It takes a lot of work to manage that but nothing compared to making an original IP from scratch.

this looks like draw.io with a custom font. edit: nope, i'm wrong, its excalidraw but the effect is almost identical in draw.io.

someone already said but it's an emulator the way java vm or python vm are emulators. they emulate a computer architecture and environment that is uniform across different hardware types.

in the uxn case the different hardware types include small raspberry pis, Nintendo DS, etc. So having the baseline be really simple means knowing the code you've written for uxn will run on all these different hardware types.

You can also build a CPU that runs uxn code directly on hardware (I assume).

if you are a user then the only reason you'd run uxn on modern powerful hardware is if there is an app written for it that you wanted to use. Just like java, or python, or rust.

For a developer, grabbing uxn might be an aesthetic or political choice, like the language, or you want to target low power hardware use cases.

my first open source experience was thinking i knew better than the mana world devs about something and just screwing things up. i dont blame them for being standoff-ish as the internet is full of teens who got up one day and said "i could build my own MMORPG. how hard could it be?"

i have my own reasons for avoiding open source (ask me about them!) but i hope your experiences got better

Idk even in the face of geopolitical conflicts I don't think most people are rabid like this. Maybe in pre-WWII Europe they were, but they ended up gassing millions of people (Jews, communists, homosexuals, Romani).

So again, why is Canada giving this guy a standing ovation?

Thanks! I was looking at stuff that lasted the mentioned 3 years which I couldnt track to anything, and grouped the Poland invasion as part of this pact, though it's worth mentioning separately.

Fwiw, Non-aggression pact means no aggression against each other but it was an coordinated invasion of Poland, so your right.

You had a chance to. The gp did too. You did not take it yet and instead asked my permission. Thank you, I guess. Go ahead, you may.

> For the first 3 years of WW2 USSR was an ally of nazis.

This sounds inaccurate or at best an oversimplification of the complicated pre-WW2 treaties flying all over europe. I only see this idea in reference to the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, but that only lasted 2 years and was a non-aggression pact, not an alliance. But maybe you are talking about a different agreement?
