Re:Unity Software to cut 3.8% of staff in 'company reset' on Wednesday November 29, 2023 @05:45AM (#38457826)
Why did they use Unity for Cities Skylines 2? Unity is widely known for performance issues in game dev community right? (I am not a game developer). Why not unreal engine etc?
I wish there was AI + crowdsourced extension as such.

https://www.conquerorsblade.com/ This game is close to what you say. Specifically the "Territory War" mode in it matches your expectation.
You can't write "Printer" and "Linux" in the same sentence! :D

Yes, I wish webapps didn't put unnecessary keyboard shortcuts (or disable them by default)

Yes. One of the first thing I do when I set up a new Mac for myself is to move the bottom dock to the right side. Then the vertical space feels much more comfortable. This is applicable for both 15 inch and 13 inch macbook pros.

If you are trying to pass custom json to GA, simply you can't do that. You would have to use Firebase analytics to send custom JSON. For GA, all the data that is passed must fall under these types, categories, actions, labels (and value)
I really liked this game "stolen in 60 seconds" in my 8th grade I played this for hous on my nokia phone https://www.getjar.com/categories/all-games/puzzle-and-strat...

They never released android or ios version and probably the company is closed now. one of the best mobile hames I have ever played!

Unfortunately, their own single-sign on services require us to have cookies enabled for client implementations (firebase auth), that remains the only reason to keep using cookies on the webapps I build.

Ask HN: What is the best Zoom alternative for mobile-web video conferencing?

We want a mobile web based webinar or conferencing system, that we can integrate inside our App, preferably via Web SDK. Zoom as Webassembly based Web SDK, but the experience on mobile-web is not good and production ready as compared to desktop web (in fact zoom themselves don't use it for mobile web, they redirect users to app, even for the meetings which can be joined on desktop web). Is...

Re:Windows98 Running in the Browser on Monday June 29, 2020 @12:41AM (#23674403)
What interests me is the core interactions with Windows systems remain mostly the same, unchanged, in the span of last 20 years!
This is fun, but on the serious note, we should not be modifying the scroll behaviour of the browser in any way. It is not as usable.
In my early childhood, I remember Mt. Everest was visible from our hotel suite when we visited Kathmandu. It was 1998.
Not sure if this is good. They have increased the character height for readability, although I think this will cause more confusion and decrease readability. Adobe's Source code pro has worked for me very well.
It accepts keyboard input, but you have to click on the terminal first.

I remember going through your GitHub and LinkedIn profile in detail. It has inspired me to develop something based on genetic algorithms myself! Keep it up! You are awesome!

Interestingly, Steam's recommendation algorithm to show "similar to a game" by their 'learning machines' works very well. I have found really good games via that, and none of them did show up in the regular recommendations/carousel on top.
I think it supports 4K but not at 60 fps. You are stuck at 30 fps.

Providing an API doesn't mean open sourcing the data. Because the API provider can very well restrict who can use it, and how it is used, and throttle it.
I think these are the solutions that GCP Partners have created USING Filestore.
