• Ask HN: Yo wants to build a game, I'm lost. What can I do?

  I've built a few games with my son over the years. The fun part for us was all about fast iteration, and then laughing at the bugs together. There are some other recommendations here for how to approach 3d, and he is specifically asking for 3d -- but I want to put in one more pitch for 2d: the fun-to-tedium ratio can be much higher.

• How can I forward Facebook messenger messages to email?

  I can't think of any way. There is a Facebook plugin for Pidgin, and you can get at your chats that way with a more versatile cross-platform messenger, if you are more normally on other chat services. https://pidgin.im/ https://github.com/dequis/purple-facebook/wiki If you want web-based clients, try a multi-app client such as Ferdium, RamBox or Station. - Source: Hacker News / 11 days ago
