Yeah, but afaict, not their new cloud service.

No, that's what the tabs hold-outs have morphed into. Which illustrates the problem with tabs: It's very difficult to get everyone on a team to care about tabs or not care about alignment.

Yeah. New pricing, but not cheaper. Don't get me wrong. It's a fine price to pay for a studio going strong. But there is no way I can use it for starting my side-project indie game.

by Arelius 3y ago
Agreed. It's also expensive, and support has been lacking. We'd much prefer something we could maintain and fix ourselves.

sigh So, in GameDev, art assets are as important to the final game as code. And is, just as important to be version controlled as code. And sure, you can split it up between many different repositories, and call it modular But you'

I have a lot of thoughts on VCS and CI, feel free to reach out: indy@telltale.com

Ahh, I see it... Being in the free tier, it also just looks like a feature, I might pull the price/100GB/mo into it's own cell to make it more clear. It is a pricing page afterall.

EC2 and a build script? Are you implying that the parents 1TB of assets are "un-versioned large media"? If so, I'm sorry you are being very dismissive about something you don't fully understand.

by Arelius 3y ago
Ok, I'll bite. Looks interesting. My first thought, as a gamedev who has been in charge of selecting VCS at multiple studios. 1TB is not a lot, and I would really appreciate clear public pricing terms on data before committing to a VCS

by Arelius 3y ago
Yes Please. I would switch my studio today if this existed.

Just because it has integrations, doesn't make it great. LFS is still not great. Doesn't have a lot of backends for instance. And a real locking system is table-stakes for a gamedev VCS

I dunno, that seems to be just shame instilled by the toxicity of certain programmer culture. I mean, it's not the clearest thing to read but labeling it horrible seems to be a judgement call that's unwarranted. And as software de

I built/use something similar using S7 scheme inspired by NaughtyDog's use of PLT Scheme/Rackey. I really like that it's easy to embed S7 into a single binary that's easy to build and distribute. Sadly, I mostly bui

Well, but to mention that once, at least at amazon, you enter the pip processs. You are no longer able to move teams. And if you get removed. Not able to apply to return.

I mean, isn't ignoring the atmosphere ignoring like 90% of the domain?

5 years old? Really? Or do you just mean because of the crazy dependencies in a typical node project?

Perhaps, though I think one should be careful, as reproducing C++ in this fashion runs awfully close to reproducing what I see as C++'s largest sin... Let me explain, I feel iteration speed is of utmost importance. So C++'s mistak

Yeah, and the California code applies to employees in California, which at least most OAI employees are, so it should be irrelevant that MSFT is in Washington. Given the relationship between the two, and the context of the matter, I don&#x2

It's complicated. In the case of the CEO it is possibly enforceable. But going to the primary funder, after being fired in a move without notification of that same funder? Likely with long complicated contracts that may contemplate the

Isn't it a bit audacious to assume the parent lives in a suburban home with a yard and drives a car? Many people don't. And it'd often a choice of values and principles. Of which the parent shared theirs.

Yes, but actually small can often be much larger then 100-300 depending on the specifics. Programmers often vastly underestimate how fast cache, and prefetch can go compared to complicated data structures.

For sure, the HP one is a rebrand of the 3Dconnexion right? Those are great, but nothing really compares to the original SpaceOrb360 controller form-factor for gaming IMO.
