Early Access is the latest place where Steam is restricting games with mature themes

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-23 17:08:06

Valve has apparently updated its Steam Early Access policy to no longer accept games with what the company deems to be "mature themes." As first reported by Gamesmarkt earlier this month, gaming studio Dammitbird, which develops the adult adventure game Heavy Hearts, was not allowed to put the title on Steam Early Access because of its content. Payment processors like Mastercard and Visa have been mounting a pressure campaign on video game marketplaces Steam and Itch.io to remove certain adults

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-24 12:45:56

Semlib Semlib is a Python library for building data processing and data analysis pipelines that leverage the power of large language models (LLMs). Semlib provides, as building blocks, familiar functional programming primitives like map , reduce , sort , and filter , but with a twist: Semlib's implementation of these operations are programmed with natural language descriptions rather than code. Under the hood, Semlib handles complexities such as prompting, parsing, concurrency control, caching,

You’re a slow thinker. Now what?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-21 03:01:45

I'm not a quick witted person. In fact, I’ve always been worried about my brain’s slow processing time. But recently, I've realised that slow processing time is not as much of an issue as I thought it was. And even if I was wrong about that, I still think I’d do better for myself by leaning into it, instead of spending energy trying to fight it. In this essay, I want to talk about some ways I've been able to skirt around my lack of quick wittedness! To get what I mean by slow processing time,

The TTY Demystified (2008)

The TTY subsystem is central to the design of Linux, and UNIX in general. Unfortunately, its importance is often overlooked, and it is difficult to find good introductory articles about it. I believe that a basic understanding of TTYs in Linux is essential for the developer and the advanced user. Beware, though: What you are about to see is not particularly elegant. In fact, the TTY subsystem — while quite functional from a user's point of view — is a twisty little mess of special cases. To und
