No. :(

This will eliminate other languages in the US.

Chance to japan's school systems, make high school where you have to apply, and have it specialized.

[edit: wrong country.]

So, what the internet was for at the beginning....is not what the internet is for now?

Everytime I refresh the page, I get a +1.

Just wanted to let you know.

^ Pretty much this.

However, as much as it would be great to have the freedom to talk about specific topics. I am moreso concerned on figuring out why Google gives a shit, and what else they are hand-delivering to the feds.

Looks like it's reformat, and use a different search engine time.

This is amazing.

I shared this with my stepdad and his friend, and we started talking about retro-gaming and how things were in the 80's-90's with gaming.

I hope to see this hit Steam :)

Why do you need Steam for a Web game??

Well... An easy to download a client, keep a shortcut on the desktop. The user can track the amount of time invested... Achievements. (People love..achievements)... Extending the audience to a wider level. There are plenty other, however the dev said s/he is trying to push for it. So, I wish them luck. :)

"easy to download" ... please take your head out of your...steam client. steam is the most obnoxious client. it abuses your machine in several ways. in linux all games can now exploit system bugs as root. screw steam. everyone hates DRM, unless it is an app store.

Well, shortcuts can be made to web apps too. But yeah, Steam offers a bunch of other things to games like this; the ones you mentioned, but also a way to pay for the game, a community, and (probably most importantly), exposure. App store for games.

Riddled with DRM though, so I'd avoid it.

steam is like paypal for gamers. which would be good if integration was easy... but no, you are forced to depend on their fullfledged client with all the DRM and abusive tactics.

Interesting read, I found the tips at the end to be both... extremely practical, and kind of a mix of "You suck...BUT YOU DONT HAVE TO!".

However, I feel the writer is massively ineffective at communicating the tips at the end.

I think a few things could improve this to be readable by more than just the curious.

* - Stop lumping a 30 year gap into one group/personality. // While aware that you may not be, it doesn't come off as that, I may feel this way because I was born in '91.*

* - Start with a problem. Fix the problem, before the next problem. example: A lot of people with this mentality share another slightly dysfunctional mentality, with this [subject] you'll come across this [problem]. Here is how you fix it, and work past it. *

* - Work on the wording. You seem either pretentious or born in the 40's and pissed about how the world changed, unable to accept advancements/changes through the world, while being angry with a younger generation. (Also, this is the internet, just to be clear, I'm not trying to be an asshole.) *

I hope you understand. I was born in this generation of "GYPSYs" as you (or the author) called it, I don't feel a sense of entitlement, my sense of being 'special' isn't "I am better than you.", it's more so that I have a love of education, technology, and programming, and that's 'special' to me because quite a few of the people I've known in my generation strongly dislike those topics.

Frankly, I love working my ass off and seeing a small blade of grass popup in my metaphorical soil. I hope (not expect) some day this metaphorical soil will be covered in countless tiny blades of grass that end up becoming a gigantic metaphorical greener-grass that is my life.

There are plenty of people (young and old-alike) that feel they are entitled to things. Respect, Success, Money, Fame(?). Those people suck. But your entire mentality isn't based on the time you were born. I feel like the things experience it, mixed with your environment are what attribute to those types of mentalities. (Yes, the old Nature VS Nurture)

Unsung? I have seen posts for the past two or three years of "unsung women of tech" quite often... I think they're.. "sung" now?

It should go without mentioning...but gender shouldn't (and doesn't) matter in fields. This is science, technological advancement. Your addition matters, not the space between your legs.

I've seen Telsa cars around my area in Texas. To be fair, there are plenty of ways around it.

Also.... It's rather eye-opening that the Yahoo community is so toxic. I don't really stick around to check out the comments, but....Damn. It seems like a ton of unintelligent hate-filled people congregated to this one and are having a massive party.

Cheers, I like the similar thought-process on seeing that.
