I found Thimbleweed Park 1 very difficult. The puzzles were too hard. I didn't complete it. I tried to play it with my girlfriend, I thought it would be a nice game to work together to play/solve. It stumped both of us. No fun.

Just a note: using the noir plugin for safari i had to disable it as the map is dark and invisible. Maybe its a layer thing.

This is really neat. Could this data be linked to quality of life indexes and see if there’s any correlation?

it is possible in normal mine sweeper to have a postion where you cant determine 100% whether a square is a mine or not. In this cases you just have to guess. Try to identify them early as possible since they can ruin the game with an unlucky guess.

It is also possible to implement minesweeper such that all positions are solvable unambiguously, see https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/js/mine...

Yes this was possible in minesweeper but something I tried to eliminate in sunflowers. You never have to guess even at the hardest difficulty levels

Just tell him you are working on juggling 5 balls.

Scrolled for this answer.

This decodes to "SEGFAULT ERROR".

The corrupted, glitchy text visual style is commonly known as Zalgo text, created by combining many special overlapping character symbols.

Yes. Its a red flag that indicates everything else you’ve said is not honest by implication.

I'd push back on the idea that "honestly" implies previous statements to be dishonest. Particularly in corporate contexts it implies that the previous statements were sanitised - either they were moderated in tone to match corporate communication standards, or they were partial redacted due to disclosure concerns.

Once the "honestly" is deployed, you have passed into my circle of trust, and are now privy to the pure, unvarnished version of events, not the glossy version management expects to be projected towards outsiders.

This is expected in any level of people management, you are constantly balancing conflicting desires and priorities.

It's cool I like it, but seems a little overkill on the HW. no matter. One thing though, how is the screen 1080px1080 ? Is it a 1080p square, with the visible pixles a circle cut out of that ? I doubt it's a non rectilinear pixel grid. i guess it's x y coords, rather than cartesian ?

It is logically a 1080x1080 rectangular display. Every pixel outside the circle is ignored.

I doubt it's polar if that's what you mean.

yes i meant polar coords

uninstall the app. my life is much better since i uninstalled most apps and I just use the web pages these days. To take ONE benefit from not using the youtube app, and instead using a browser: I can open more than one video at once.

> can open more than one video at once.

And a nice side-effect of that is that YouTube doesn't throw away the list of other videos on the page you came from!

> Yeah I mean the whole "OMG I have to pre-order my vegan meals??!"

yeah that got me . not sure specifically but it felt a bit weird. Also I appreciate this post is about the interrailing, but it felt after reading all the y did was catch trains for the duration, but no mention of anything that they did or saw in all these places.

Yes. How do you do it otherwise?

Slack, Teams, etc

IMO direct messages, using people's names in messages, or @them is a disruption and should be reserved for needing one. I hate being deep in work, and then being disrupted for something that could have easily been put in a channel that I could look at later.

Turning off notifications would mean muting people that are more respectful and might have a legitimate reason to disrupt you.

Sounds horrendous.

Seriously though thats a different type of communication though? Can you host slack on prem?
