Exactly, the article makes no sense. Dash-to-dock is fantastic.


I’m having fun using vanilla js with lit-html. Using string templates instead of jsx. VSCode extensions for lit make it almost identical to editing vue templates with type checking etc


How does this stack up aginst using lit-html?


Was there anything remotely like that back in the days ? The replayability of this genre?

Cadaver had the isometric and style but wasn’t a rogue like.



Nethack, ADOM and a bunch of other classics also had their ports (though at least ADOM past 1.1.1 struggles to launch on hardware these days).


Slashem (even Slashem-up form GitHub) should compile it fine in the same machines NetHack 3.4.3 did.


Procgen (and I mean roguelike style procgen, not Elite/Frontier single fixed seed generation) AND graphics like these were pretty rare back then, best to my knowledge. There's a number of classic games that Roguecraft draws on visually, notably HeroQuest, but also, as you say, Cadaver, Shadowlands, and some others. There were also a good few near-roguelike games (DarkSpyre springs to mind...), and of course ports of the major RLs (ADOM, Moria, bands, hacks, etc.), but I think RogueCraft is the only game to hit this balance between high (for the system) visuals and roguelike gameplay.


Again they chose to not tell users about Premium LITE. Why?

Wouldnt it convince more people to pay? And Google can try to entice users later to upgrade to the full Premium. Would t that make sense?


Awakening from delusion is appparently not worth it …

The hell? Is Adobe using bots to promote their software?


I don't know what the economics are behind it, but there have been a ton of vacuous AI boosting content in the last few months. I guess unlike with crypto you can't simply sell tokens or NFTs so all these bots can really do is just hype up the technology to get clicks and follows for a future scheme.


Pet peeve : wish "iOS" term was banned and use "iPhone only" instead.

-iPad user


While iOS is an umbrella term, the App Store is pretty clear about which devices an app supports. The device range is explained right beneath the screenshots, and the Compatibility section goes into more detail. In this case iPad isn't mentioned, so are you looking for some clear "no iPad" signal? If it will run on iPad, just not as a full-frame iPad app—because a few really won't run at all, like if they require a hardware capability only a phone has—how could they make that clear? In the storefront signal-to-noise game, is it worth the attention?


iOS is iPhone only. iPads are running iPadOS


It's still one iOS SDK. As a developer and power user audience, we remember when iPhone OS was first renamed to iOS on iPad's release because they were the same. It hasn't been renamed back. Regarding usage, the term iOS development within Apple dev shops still refers to both iPhone and iPad code and App Store distribution. We generally use iOS as an umbrella term, and reach for the new term iPadOS in reference to the iPad-exclusive parts of the user experience like its multitasking capabilities and Universal Control.


Hmmm, never even knew that. Thought iOS covered both iphone and ipad.



It used to but they separated them a few years ago.


It does except in recent marketing. iOS is still used as an umbrella term.


It used to be like that until 2019 when iPadOS was introduced.


Please limit our competitors, we want all the money$$$


OAuth is too abstract and that’s why it’s bad.

I’m not a backend guy, for a hobby php site I’m trying to get Oauth2 with gmail free smtp, and the token refresh part to run on its own and even with packages like Phpmailer there’s no simple working copy/paste examples, just loads and loads of bits and pieces and outdated examples and small print about Google changed this or that… I mean wtf is the point of having a package that is supposed to abstract OAuth if you still end up having to dig for hours and having to figure OAuth2’s flow in detail?

I’m so disgusted I figured maybe I’ll do the password with 2fa on that email acct and be done with it even though OAuth shpuld be the better option.
