News

Not Just Bikes: Stupid SUVs are literally killing us. Excellent rant backed by hard facts. Seeing such a usually mild-mannered commentator explode with rage gives a measure of how infuriating this situation is.

Tech

Allan Blomquist: Tomorrow Corp. tech demo (caveats, HN). Neat demo of the tooling for a commercial indie game. Integrated editor, hot-reloading code & assets, debugging, reverse-debugging with snapshots 😍.

Yahtzee / Extra Punctuation: The “live-service” game model is dying.

The Onion: SpaceX Crew Member Realizes He Fired After Being Locked Out Of Capsule 😄.

Shitty tech ℹ️

In “I have nothing to hide” news,

• Business Insider: U.S. police are prosecuting women seeking abortion using their digital data, and Facebook & Google help them do it.
• WaPo: Catholic group spent millions on app data that tracked gay priests.

r/Android: Samsung “space zoom” moon shots are fake (HN), thx Heinz. Oh how surprising from that same company that is repeatedly caught pretending high-end-DLSR photos were taken by their phones, only to be caught by EXIF metadata 🤦‍♂️. EDIT March 15: they blog about it and seem to be happy about it.
