Hardships any country faces always affect innocent people. For example, immigrants were affected by the opioid crisis, so how does the flimsy, sad idea of "group karma" hold up here?
Sharing uphelpful, embittered opinions like this only spreads pain that wraps back around and bites you, in the end. Treating the suffering of people as a sport or spectator event, by proverbially pointing your finger and laughing, is repulsive and puts you exactly in the same league as the people you detest.

This gave me a hearty laugh not only due to the idea, but because that's been my near exact experience with helping my family.
I went straight for the "circles" background. 98 UI and art will never tire me.

That's creating a slippery, echoey slope for the role of the agent / butler. You may end up replacing one problem with another.

Keeping my eye on this. I really like the general form factor and aesthetic here. The candy-like wired audio and chiptune ringtones are a fun bonus.

Congrats on such an achievement. The remake looks great, but those DOS screenshots have an undeniable charm. With such a large scale game, something I always find interesting is uncovering what types of quirks and bugs bubble underneath the surface in the original version. Did you come across anything obvious in your testing?

Off topic, but I know someone who was able to narrow down the source of their kidney stones to vitamin D supplement pills, and they were taking them at suggested doses. Wanted to put that here in case it helps someone avoid agony.
Re:Why you should delete WhatsApp and install Signal
on Wednesday July 09, 2025 @06:51PM (#44515522)
I've tried Signal a few times and I always end up dropping it. It lacks many things from Telegram that I'd rather not live without. There's nothing I message to anyone that I wouldn't say in a public setting, so I don't see a need to forgo good features for privacy.

Re:Show HN: I taught AI to commentate Pong in real time
on Sunday May 04, 2025 @11:25AM (#43887249)
I agree with this idea. The reason I visited this is because of the idea of commentating Pong is inherently amusing. It makes me realize I'd be down to watch competitive pong.

Re:Show HN: Dosidicus – A digital pet with a simple neural network

The name is a portmanteau of tamago (たまご, egg) and uotchi (ウオッチ, watch). The original product was even sometimes written as "tamagotch" in some media.

It's so entertaining to just pour through the source for each game and read the language used at the time, like in the game instructions or result responses.
There's something refreshing about seeing things described in different ways than they are now. I always wonder if some long forgotten words of phrasings will make their way back into public consciousness.

Really cool writeup and I have to say that your little animated logo at the footer looks incredibly good. On the homepage your new-old buttons for social media are also incredible. Thanks for all of your work keeping that style alive.

Excellent point about team dynamics. When trying to dynamically guess a group's Elo, it could be interesting to try and create a game-specific radar chart for each player and add those values instead.
