Speaking of analog: Light Guns don’t work on modern televisions due to the high latency relative to CRT screens (which had essentially zero latency).

It baffles me that they sell Chrome as private and/or secure, and baffles me even more that people believe them.

Traditionally, no. Under this new umbrella term, anything can count if you squint your eyes right.

It certainly makes it hard for me, as a fan of actual games like Rogue, to find said games when the genre is so flooded with literally every other game out there.

That’s the weird thing is that what people call a “roguelike” now is just what pretty much every game was back in the day.

Sorry to go on a well-trodden tangent, but it really is unfortunate how diluted the term “roguelike” has become.

One I haven’t seen mentioned (at a glance at least) is Noita.

Getting the “false ending” is achievable with some effort, but I dare you to actually finish the game. And as far as replayability, you’ll be hard pressed to have two runs that go the same. The amount of Butterfly Effect in this game from all the combinations and systems is straight up insane.

I really can’t recommend it enough.

Where?

Can’t say we as a species have a great history of granting rights to others.

Those are two very fair points - I agree.

I’m not sure I understand what you mean.

For an API there should always be a version parameter/endpoint, imho.

Edit for further context: Ideally, a parameter.

You’re in luck! The book I’ve generally heard recommended to beginners for Python is available for free online!

The biggest reason for me is that it’s less data to send over a network. Especially when I’m working with lists of objects, including null fields can add a noticeable chunk to the payload.

There are some cases where it might be worth it to differentiate “No value” and “No attribute”, but in most cases they can be treated the same, since the data should really be validated against a schema anyway.

Yeah, I’m also confused. If an attribute is null, I would prefer to simply not serialize it.

I’m sure there are edge cases where someone might prefer to include null attributes, but generally they should be treated the same either way.

I say we ditch this nonsense altogether and go back to vague descriptions of the Sun’s position in the sky.

(I’m glad you did, because I hated it, haha.)

They were definitely on grass.

In case anyone is curious - as I was - here’s the commercial: https://youtu.be/uTVlnehpRHQ

Love how they make this sound like some incredible feat. When you aren’t bound to license agreements, turns out it’s actually very easy to have a “massive” content library. Literally the only hurdle is storage space.
