Dwarf Fortress is a modern example of that paradigm.

As far as I know Dwarf Fortress is entirely closed source.

I was speaking in the sense that the base game is free and you can buy it with non-ascii graphics for a price.

However,

The "raws" that drive the game are completely configurable and accessible by a user.

It's more like the engine being closed source and the gamedata being source-available. Modding isn't quite the right word - that implies it being less open.

You can delete stuff from being present in your game, add new plants or objects, new diseases, etc.

Also related, the game has been opened up with Lua scripting thanks to Putnam's efforts, for even more powerful procedural addons.

In what way? I'm not seeing any.

Maybe in a small office, but certainly not one with a few hundred.

It's absurd at this point.

Doesn't even need to be a speaker. Just a battery and transmitter.

However, Tate got the permission to build the viewing deck before the apartments were built.

After the apartments had been granted planning permission. Apartments came first, no matter what mental gymnastics you engage in.

Absolutely, it's just somewhat wild they got permission to build the deck.

Really? It's been pretty good with a Ghidra MCP at signature scanning for extremely niche undocumented software.

used a lot in legal settings, yes - "bob was trespassed at that time"

Sounds like The Flavor Bible - it's a great reference book to find pairings of ingredients.

I think fpshero says exactly that (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48294459):

oh god I swear it said something different when I posted, or maybe I had too many cups of coffee yesterday...

Statsig has worked great at my work, really polished and rich feature set. Their tooling to identify unused flags as candidates for removal is neat.

The per-seat billing we have in our agreement is a bit rough but it's workable.


Statsig is a half-baked product bought out by OpenAI for data harvesting. We already reported 2 documentation issues and 1 critical technical issue, and we're barely using it.

Well, OpenAI already sold it (but kept the team), so it’s in someone else’s hands now.
