There was a bit in the Lemmino video about exactly this. In it he states that there were 4 hydrophonic stations that heard "something" and follows up with the recordings for you to hear.

I often reminisce about working in a warehouse and going home without any looming thoughts about work. I mean, you can't really take the sweeping and forklifts home with you.

These days it takes serious effort to put the work aside and not think about either current or future problems that I am being paid to solve. Sometimes this industry feels like a field of rabbit holes and it requires almost perfect balance not to fall into them.

While there are definitely games that will be lost when deprecating 32bit, I think it's harsh to say that we are going back to the olden days.

If you look at the top sellers on Steam that have Mac support you'll see a very large library of great games that I don't think anyone would have guessed would be supported on Mac 5-10 years ago.

If anything I think Mac support for games is on the rise and will only continue to grow.

Is this the article?

I remember when it came out and a few coworkers at the time had seriously considered swapping to an iPad because of it, but ended up getting MacBook Airs instead.

It’s surprising how 7 years has gone by and using an iPad for development is still facing the same problems.

I'm not saying that emotions don't exist, just that the meaning is completely separate from the way that we define it.

For example many languages define colors differently (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMqZR3pqMjg), but this doesn't mean that the different wavelengths don't exist. Cultures categorized them for the purpose of communication and it's only within the context of that categorization that you can understand the meaning.

Earlier I referenced "finger pointing at the moon" and this is exactly it. The word is the finger and the meaning is the moon, and we shouldn't mistake the finger for the moon.

> i am sure there are animals willing to discuss it with you, it’s just that you (us) can’t understand them.

I was half-joking, there are already animals that we can understand and communicate with. It's just a matter of finding them :P

> it is very possible that animals feel deeper emotional connections than we do. orcas showcase some very deep emotional states.

No doubt. Even visiting an animal shelter exposes some of the deep emotional state that dogs and cats can be in, and I'm sure that barely scratches the surface when considering all of the different species and circumstances.

Because "deeper emotions" is something defined by us, humans, and is probably completely meaningless without a complete understanding of how we define emotions in the first place.

I'm not saying they don't have these emotions, just that they probably don't have the same concepts surrounding them as we do. I could very well be wrong, but I'd have to find a non-human animal willing to discuss the topic with me.

Ah I misunderstood the point that you were trying to make, but it makes more sense now and is something I can agree with.

Thanks for the clarification.

I believe this is a classic "finger pointing at the moon" issue where you value words more than the meaning. The question isn't whether or not they feel emotions as we have boxed them up and given names to, but as they are in experience.

Of course animals have no such conception of deeper emotions, at least in the same way that we think about them, but that doesn't mean that animals do (or don't) experience them. It just means our method of boxing up experiences into communicable terms probably doesn't match their own.

He seems to have a perspective that his 'legacy' is under attack and that the derivatives of his work are ruining his reputation. To me it comes across as very naive to think that you can control your 'legacy' by making demands to people who use work that was placed in the public domain.

The mobile devs were fully willing to make the changes he wanted (even going as far as to offer him money, which he refused), but when the changes didn't actually make a difference and a mistake was made (their release in China was missing the changes and he was still being asked by fans about the mobile port) he doubled-down on the claims of fraud and eventually submitted take-down requests through Apple and Google.

I don't think there is a path towards his satisfaction until he understands the implications of placing work in the public domain.

I had a very similar reaction and was surprised to see the difference between Vijaya and Dorsey responding to his claims with documents and first-hand knowledge, just for him to rattle off some news articles that are making claims without any tangible proof other than 'well this guy says he was banned for no reason'. I don't blindly believe what Vijaya and Dorsey are saying but to put your faith into articles and hearsay doesn't seem to be any better.

There were also times that he made a series of assumptions leading up to a question and it left Vijaya and Dorsey to somehow demolish every assumption because he wasn't satisfied with the answers they gave.

For example, at one point he explains how he thinks Twitter is such a big influence and at such odds with the US laws that they are facing regulation to allow 'free speech' on a 'private-public' platform (his words, not mine) and kept digging into this point without considering that his fundamental assumptions are wrong (Twitter is a monopoly and should be using US free speech laws as their basis for content moderation). Instead he just keeps getting more frustrated as they can't answer the question without first addressing the assumptions that made him ask the question in the first place.

I just finished reading Bad Blood and it details how they went to extreme measures to ensure that the FDA never saw their Edison machines like barring entry to the lab on the day of an inspection, putting security guards in front of the door, and lying when asked what was inside.

While the inspector could have pushed the issue, I don't think they 'failed massively'.

Building an SPA for every single project is like using a semi-trailer to commute everywhere you go. Sure, it will always get you where you need and sometimes turns have to be taken pretty wide, but what's the downside?

Well, if you're destination is just 2 blocks down the road then why not walk? If you just need a simple page and the content doesn't need to be updated often, why not some flat HTML/CSS/JS?

Many times SPA frameworks are used because it's flashy and more exciting than writing basic html and css, but more often than not that's all you need.

There are certain industries that have requirements for vetting customers, and if those requirements are not met then responsibility falls on the company and not the customer.

If a car manufacturer distributes a car that did not go through any inspections and it turns out the brake lines were hooked up incorrectly and consequently causes damage or hurts the customer then it's neither the customer or the dealership who are at fault, but the manufacturer for failing to properly inspect the product that they are making.

In the same sense, if a bar sells beer to someone without asking for their ID and they turn out to be underage, or a gun store sells a weapon to a convicted felon without performing a background check, liability falls on the company and not the customer.

I am not sure if this should apply to newspapers in respect to their advertising, but there are examples where this line of thinking does apply and this might be one of them.
