I would've said: 1) news.ycombinator.com, 2) hn.algolia.com, and 3) hn.premii.com But putting aside HN and the 'typical' daily stuff like weather, transit, uh, 'private' stuff, etc.: 1. De Correspondent : a web-only subscription-based newspaper that has a pretty unique and very successful approach. Instead of the classical 'lots of news items as things unfold, hot off the press, and lots of barely rewritten AP feeds'…

Thank you so so much for mentioning algolia. Prior to now, I had never heard of them but checking out the site, it sure would come in handy.

Bookmarked!

Good for long form articles on culture:

Arts and Letters Daily (http://www.aldaily.com/)

World and UK news. I try to avoid the identity politics articles - they are of a much lower quality than the other content. The comment sections are often very insightful and of a much higher standard than most other news sites:

The Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/uk)

"Adversarial journalism":

The Intercept (https://theintercept.com)

Si quieres practicar Español escríbeme un email (if you want to practice some Spanish send me an email).

I also know some programmers Slacks in Spain, which might be easy as all the technical words are in English.

What country Spanish are you aiming for though? They are slightly different (more than American English vs British English).

Earlier quoted context omitted.

That looks very interesting. I suppose they keep running even when there is no visitor looking, so you come back the next day and they did all sort of things. Are you planning to keep it for yourself or will we see a Show HN someday?

I'll probably share it if it gets anywhere - it's still early days for the project, but it'll be open source on https://github.com/ajeffrey/civarium

This sounds very interesting and fun. Would be cool for a raspberry pi picture frame type of thing

Could you maybe share a screenshot?

it's very early days yet, but here's a build from a few days ago: http://imgur.com/a/iUyj9

the sprites can walk around by themselves and the tiles can be generated - I'm currently working on the AI for the sprites and assembling the tiles procedurally so I can start adding GOAP and construction planning.
