Thank you! Multiplayer is definitely implemented, and you can have all kinds of flavor of PvP. Free for all, zone restricted, with different death looting modes (some worlds let you loot all of your opponent's gear, others none).
I've been working on this project since 2013. It's a platform for building and playing text-based games (Multi-User Dungeons), both single-player and multi-player, on the browser. The layout is responsive to accommodate both desktop and mobile displays (including the world editor). Would love some thoughtful feedback!
"Any service that provides encrypted messages must be capable of unscrambling them."
Isn't that unrealistic in a private / public key encryption scenario? I worry that lawmakers don't quite grasp the implications of the technological changes they want mandated
Yes, I wonder how involved they will be with Open Source. Could really shift things a bit if a startup like Blekko shoved Google further to the center by being more 'Open' (whatever that word has come to mean) than them in the eyes of the media.
Completely agree. And about the actual article... isn't debating the merits of the domain names publicly going to attract domain sitters to buy those names as they are discussed? Especially given the emphasis on .coms, they are cheap to own and sit on.
To a lot of you criticizing how in love with Apple he is... well it's not like Gruber hides being pro Apple, or that him taking sides on a personally owned blogged makes him a bad source of information and observations.
How biased he is can certainly be borderline infuriating at times but I don't know any other blogger right now that writes about Apple and consistently makes observations that weren't obvious to make. He also has a compelling talent for seeing the big picture and making pieces of the puzzle fit.
Indeed, only iPhone upgrades are "Free", because they're subsidized. But the majority of people don't seem to get that just because you're not paying something at that particular point in time doesn't mean you didn't incur that cost over a stretch of time. It's also why people still think of iPhones as being worth $200 when in fact they are worth $600, and why they get so angry when they get hit with the early termination fee.
And speaking of Starcraft 2 and coding, here is a Raphael.js / jQuery web app that matches up units currently in the Beta against each other: http://scstrategy.com/matchup
Yeah, I think the "Is your business in the right hands" is also just over the top enough to suggest it's a fake. On top of it, if you google the name of either people you come up with basically nothing.
Very well done though, solid entertainment right there!
