You can add a correction going the other way and it may fix the problem (it did for me for a similar problem, anyway) in Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> Text Replacement. Try replacing “Å” with “A”, or “A” with “A”, and see if that helps.

Can we start calling AI sycophancy “commoditizing your compliments”?

I live near Pike Place Market currently and have for years. There is no open air drug market anywhere nearby. Some people doing drugs, and occasionally dealing to each other, but nothing like what you’re describing.

I like Josh Comeau’s frontend courses a lot. Great interactive explanations and lots of relevant exercises to work through.

I’m going to guess you’ve probably already thought about this, but just in case: is it worth adding a guideline about the guidelines being fuzzy and/or not being a comprehensive list? Or would that create more problems than it solves?

If you’re ok with it, I think emailing hn@ycombinator.com with this (which dang and the other mods read) would also be good.

I also love the soundtrack so much and have listened to it thousands of times, especially By The Wall, my favorite song. PS: Thanks for posting the composer’s solo name, Floex, because there were (are?) two people with exactly the same name working at Amanita Design, bizarrely!

Downvoting needs much more than that actually (is it 500+ these days?) Maybe you mean flagging? Which is similar enough to still make your argument work, but just saying.

Indeed. I regularly have to remind myself that The Witcher 3 is 8th on Wikipedia’s list of all-time best-selling video games: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_gam...

I’m often not a fan of the Chinese government’s practices, but I think the parent is right here personally. I think Wikipedia does a nice job discussing it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_credit_system#Misconcep...

I take your general point, but as per your specific example, it’s not really possible to go downhill for long distances when the high point of the state is 345 feet.

I drank the whole list too, but back when it was a lot easier due to having less cocktails on it, as you note in your post. Sent you an email!

Thanks for the info about Magnolia and Interbay. I did not know that!

I am male, and I agree that it's definitely to important to keep that in mind. I definitely believe that it's not the same for me as it is for women. But I will also say that I've been living in my current location with my female partner for over 7 years, and we often walk together, though sometimes she walks on her own too of course. I just asked her if she ever felt unsafe either, and she said "no".

I think I tried there, and even after brightening / enhancing, I couldn't get much detail. But I'll try it again tonight to be sure. Thanks!

Thank you! I especially appreciate the detailed feedback.

I definitely thought about putting in Home Depot. The problem is that, according to Begeal's map ( https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/1/viewer?mid=1pcItdmVeC6Rj24... ), which I almost always agree with, Abby's around 5th Ave. and Main St. at that point. I haven't doublechecked that location myself in game recently, but looking at a playthrough, the FOB appears to be almost directly east, and I'm pretty sure that was meant to be Harborview. This roughly tracks with what Begeal shows on their map.

That's pretty far away from Home Depot in SoDo, which is a little ways south of both stadiums, and here in the game you actually seem to be north of the stadiums by this point. Also, as you exit in the game, the garden center seems to be on the northwest corner of the store, not the northeast, and the parking lot seems different too. Given that the game has generic stores all the time that don't exist in real life, I'm inclined to say "not quite close enough" personally. But I should put all this in the document for people to judge on their own, so thank you for prompting me to do that! I'll add it in a minute.

I thought so too re: the Space Needle on Seraphite Island. But I tried to take pictures every time I saw it appear, and I could never get a good shot. (And I really tried!) If you know of a good screenshot online, though, I'll be happy to include it and credit the original source.

EDIT: Oh, and yeah, the Space Needle definitely is not in the right place in the game at least some of the time, which the TV station in the game (and the guide) makes obvious.

I mention in the guide that you should do it during the day for best results, so in general I'm with you on that (and the guide backtracks after Macy's to avoid 3rd, on purpose). But I will say that I've been walking all around downtown / ID / Pioneer Square / Belltown for a number of years now, and I've never felt unsafe, though there are plenty of unpleasantries (yelling, drug use, people walking erratically, etc.) I even walked through 12th and Jackson today, and it's not great, but I didn't feel unsafe, either.

In theory, the Seraphite island is supposed to be Queen Anne + Magnolia after flooding separates them from the mainland. But you can read lots of internet posts talking about the issues with that, like https://www.reddit.com/r/lastofuspart2/comments/1kzicba/figu... .

Thank you! That means a lot to me. I've been here in Seattle almost 10 years, but I feel like I still have so much to learn about this city. Making this guide taught me a lot!

Sheesh, that's a bummer. I figured Google Docs would do fine with this, but maybe not. Let me know if it continues to not work, and I'll investigate other ways to host. Open to suggestions!

FYI, I made this tour in case anyone has any questions (or corrections, etc.)

Slay The Spire has dailies, but I get your point generally.

Sadly, now that the page has been taken down, maybe this is the last time we will see it here.

Agreed, but it’s remarkable how well this approach worked for him till then. No approach can solve every problem. I wonder if this one, on balance, was the right one for him, or for others.

Is it repeating in the whole PIN, or in digits next to each other? I'm trying to resist the nerd snipe of what the total number of possibilities would be in the latter case...

I wonder if there's some threshold to be crossed where it can be surprising for longer. I made a video game name generator long ago that just picks a word (or short phrase) from each of three columns. (The majority of the words / phrases are from me, though many other people have contributed.)

I haven't added any words or phrases to it in years, but I still use it regularly and somehow it still surprises me. Maybe the Spelunky-type approach can be surprising for longer; that is, make a bunch of hand-curated bits and pick from them randomly: https://tinysubversions.com/spelunkyGen/

I’ve been reading most articles in The Economist every week for 20 years. It’s not really relevant to my work. I don’t read every article thoroughly, though. There are some I don’t mind skimming, some I usually skip that are speculation about the future, and also when you’re up to date sometimes articles contain redundant info to bring relative newcomers up to speed.

It certainly has issues in the depth of its coverage, the simplistic endings of its articles, occasional culture war snipes, and lots of other stuff. It’s far from perfect. But for my money it’s still the best general world news source out there, and I check most of them out regularly. I have so many conversations with coworkers and people I meet about their home countries that I just couldn’t without reading The Economist.

I think a neat follow-up image would be a sphere containing the top 2.5 miles of Earth’s crust for comparison to the water.

Super late response, but I play Jumbline 2 these days which is the exact same thing. Only a phone app currently I think though.
