I'm interested. How can I get updates on this project?

I think it's probably not true that it all adds up over a lifetime. That's the model that is widely used but there's some good evidence to suggest it's not accurate. see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#x2

I wanted to use this a long time ago but the rust support wasn't there. I can see now that it's on the front page with apparently first class support so looks like I can give it a go again.

The strip is depressing, but the actual city outside of the strip is pretty cool. It's rapidly growing with very affordable housing. The food scene is excellent because of a diverse population. The nature scene is excellent. Electricit

I'm working on a distributed object storage system to be the backing store behind my website ( https://scmscx.com ). It currently uses back blaze b2 which is good and cheap but I thought it would be fun to roll my own.

JSON5 is exactly what you're looking for and has somewhat decent adoption. I use it for configuration on one of my projects and I really enjoy it.

From the bottom of the article: > # ps. By design, this website is as usable as YAML. It's intentionally bad.

It's the supply of when you should build it. In the early game it's essentially how many workers you have.

I'm not sure about how it works in WoW but I can give you a warning about what happens in StarCraft. To prevent other people from editing StarCraft maps (which are MPQs), users would intentionally mangle the MPQ format in just the righ

I'm surprised to see MPQ come up. What game is it?

I see many people in the comments nostalgically talking about the custom mapping scene and how it got them into programming. The same is true for me, so I think here is a good place to plug my starcraft custom map archive website [0]. In 20

to be clear because this is often a point of confusion (I believe it was done intentionally to be confusing but I digress). The remastered client is actually free, the HD skin (and ladder play) is $15. So you can play online with custom map

In 2020 I wanted to look up some classic StarCraft 1 maps that I used to play but there wasn't a good database around that I could easily search through. So I made https://scmscx.com to serve that purpose.

This is a nice solution. I came up with something similar where once it got stuck without making much progress I would just blow away a big radius and that would often help it get unstuck. I did eventually abandon this approach though. I ca

a) determine in bounded time whether any solution exists at all I can't prove it but I think this is roughly the same thing as the circuit satisfiability problem, which is np-complete. So, I think the best thing you can do there is a

I implemented this algorithm to generate StarCraft 1 maps and it worked quite well. The results it generates have quite a natural property to them that you don't see with similar things like perlin noise. I wrote it in rust which I com
