   I recommend digging into the available actions, this looks more flexible than anything else in this space (eg IFTTT, Zapier). There's control flow (if and while), and some actions aren't tied to any service: there's a "R

   How likely is a startup to allow that type of clause for a non executive? I thought sacking people at will was part of the business appeal of places like California.

    I don't imagine this is something that sits well with the entrepreneurial spirit of HN readers Would that explain why this post moved from number 3 on HN to bottom of page 3 in a matter of minutes?

    In theory, could elevators replace satellites? If so perhaps an initial batch of elevators could also be used to clean up the space junk (including the now obsolete satellites).

    Thanks! I learned pixel art just by watching and doing. Sites like eBoy [1] are a big inspiration. In this case though it's procedural pixel art. :) And sound as in sound effects. I wrote more about that process here [2]. [1] http:&#x

    Thanks! About OpenGL I don't know if I'm a good example to follow, in my case I mostly needed to understand how to setup, send vertices to OpenGL, set colors, activate blending, once I figured that out I abstracted that stuff away

    Yes, I designed it. The image was generated using the game engine. Adam Robezzoli from attractmo.de produced it (his idea) in collaboration with LOOMLAB who are really good at making amazing scarves. It's here if anyone is curious: ht

    Thanks! Music and sound were all made with Logic and a software synths. Would love to get into procedural music eventually though. The process for the sound was grabbing some video of the game, throw that in Logic, and hunt for sounds that

    Hey HN! Thanks for the feedback! I studied graphic design, played/made music as a hobby, and became passionate about coding (mostly self taught), so much that I tend to integrate code into everything I do, including in the design proce
