Nice! There is also VCMI, an open-source engine for Heroes of Might and Magic III:

Yes! I visited Rijksmuseum a few years ago with a close friend and I liked the painting "The Gulf of Naples with the Island of Ischia in the Distance" very much. I downloaded the high quality scan from the painting's museum web page[1] and got it printed onto a canvas to hang in our apartment. We really enjoy its presence with my wife!

Got especially excited, since I also experimented on a similar idea a few years ago:

Will check this out further in the following days. Thanks for sharing!

Nice! Imagine the second meaning going back to Arabic and now it's a full loop! It can even override the original meaning given enough time and popularity (not especially for "zero", but possibly for another full-loop word).

or with Tailscale (and configure the server as an exit node).

Interesting and lovely to see ekşi sözlük getting mentioned on HN (even though I remember seeing ssg on HN before if I remember correctly).

I'm curious if there are any similar (in the vein of Douglas Adams' "Guide to the Galaxy") websites with a geographically wider adoption, basically its English version.

I remember İTÜ Sözlük changing its brand to Instela to go somewhat global. But looks like they failed.

I also remember seeing a "Guide" in some Douglas Adams related website, but it wasn't really an active website as far as I remember.

Sounds like an amazing course!

Was that the case for you? I'm especially curious about the exams if there were any, because it's probably hard to keep the whole context in mind as a student and to evaluate students for the teacher.

Great news, congratulations!

Years ago, under the influence of Lisp romanticism late into my university years, I worked on a domain-specific language for designing and analyzing control systems as my senior design project, using Hy! Just checked, it's been five and a half years to be specific. Really, time flies.

Here it is for anyone curious: https://github.com/celaleddin/gently

Since then, I've been following Hy from a distance and it's amazing to see it's still active. Thank you everyone involved!

This is cool! Also, reminds me of selectic-mode for Emacs:

Can you share some of the articles you mentioned about ITA Software's Lisp code?

Just curious: Can you share your list of languages to learn?

This looks great! I'll play around with it more later this week.

A thought: I suppose Virtual Pool is a pretty popular game/simulation in the billiards circles. Maybe you can get insights for keyboard/mouse interaction and graphical interface.

I remember playing Virtual Pool and I really liked the way they designed the interactions with the game.

I really liked all these questions, thanks for sharing. I'll think about them.

Pre-shot routines come into play to help with that I think. To take every shot with the same level of seriousness and preparation, whatever the position is.

For the last few years, I want to play pool more and more, but going to a club is such a drag for me. Especially when alone. A home with a pool table would be great.

A few frames of six-ball every few hours as a break from work...

Beautiful.

Somehow it gave me the vibe of watching a transitional scene from Regular Show.

Yeap, this one: "You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is."

I think he is a pretty decent writer, which may suggest that we need to take all those quotes within their context.
