Zizek’s take on 300 is so good, here’s an excerpt:
it is the story a small and poor country (Greece) invaded by the army of a much larges state (Persia), at that point much more developed, and with a much more developed military technology - are the Persian elephants, giants and large fire arrows not the ancient version of high-tech arms? When the last surviving group of the Spartans and their king Leonidas are killed by the thousands of arrows, are they not in a way bombed to death by techno-soldiers operating sophisticated weapons from a safe distance, like today’s US soldiers who push the rocket buttons from the warships safely away in the Persian Gulf? Furthermore, Xerxes’s words when he attempts to convince Leonidas to accept the Persian domination, definitely do not sound as the words of a fanatic Muslim fundamentalist: he tries to seduce Leonidas into subjection by promising him peace and sensual pleasures if he rejoins the Persian global empire. All he asks from him is a formal gesture of kneeling down, of recognizing the Persian supremacy - if the Spartans do this, they will be given supreme authority over the entire Greece. Is this not the same as what President Reagan demanded from Nicaraguan Sandinista government? They should just say “Hey uncle!” to the US…
Apart from cargo bikes, in London City ULEZ, buses, cabs, and utility trucks are allowed. It’s amazing how little traffic they generate.
My gut feeling is that the procedural generation thing in Startfield somehow absorbs some people’s need for mods.
Why subsidized? A fair comparison would be subsidized home farming vs. subsidized industrial farming, or neither are subsidized.
The exact problem was discussed in Seeing Like a State by James C. Scott, where he reached a very different and nuanced conclusion. You can have a read if you are truly interested.
There’s a Generals Evolution mod for Red Alert 3, which super-glues Generals to RA3 and it’s pretty great.
Deprecation warnings should contain suggestions for alternatives.
Jesus Christ Marie, they are minerals!
Run all of them for extra brightness.
After the crush, they shout CR2032.
It’s not that the author picked Rust for scripting. All Rust game engines (e.g. Bevy) use Rust as the scripting language.
Compare this with Godot, which is implemented in C++, but supports GDScript and many other languages for scripting.
Also, only supporting Rust is not considered a limitation, but a feature here. Bevy’s ECS is tied up with Rust’s trait system, therefore it’s impossible to use a different language.
So if Rust as a system programming language should not be used for game scripting, then projects like Bevy are fundamentally flawed. The author is willing to go there, but I don’t know if many people would go that far.
There could be a Godot-like engine written in Rust that supports easier scripting languages, but I think that space is not explored due to the fact that Godot already exists.
In general, given a Turing machine which outputs the result of a procedure to its memory tape, you can equivalently construct a recognizer of valid input/output pairs. Say P is the procedure, then the recognizer R is let (i, o) = input in P(i) = o
The reverse is also possible. Give a recognizer R, you can construct a procedure P that given part of the input (can be empty), computes the rest of the input that makes R accept the whole. It can be defined as for o in all-strings, if R(i, o) then output o and halt, else continue
.
It might feel contrived at first, but both views can be useful depending on the situation. You’ll get used to it soon with some exercises.
For all possible input, only recognize the one input that’s (under certain encoding scheme) equal to the sum of the given list. That’s for a given list.
Another more general approach is that, only recognize the input if (under certain encoding), it’s a pair of a list and a number, where the number is the sum of the list.
Being a jerk in Obsidian games is fun. I used to do every small errand to please everyone, mainly for the rewards, but then found out as long as you can figure out the main mechanism, most tasks are optional.
Being more assertive really amps up the role playing aspect. Sadly not every RPG is this open and well-written.
Time for London’t.
Nah, in real CSS, the window would overflow and bring down the whole house.
Look, there’s a thing called safety-catch and that’s why my son can play with semi-auto rifles.
If you execute a binary without specifying the path to it, it will be searched from the $PATH environment variable, which is a list of places to look for the binary. From left to right, the first found one is returned.
You can use which cat
to see what it resolves to and whereis cat
to get all possible results.
If you intentionally wants to use a different binary with the same name, you can either directly use its path, or prepend its path to $PATH.
Yes for OCaml. Haskell’s inequality is defined as
/=
(for ≠).<>
is usually the Monoidmappend
operator (i.e. generalized binary concatenation).
