   Standup is a thing you do in scrum but I don't think it's the most important thing. I think the most important thing is getting better at estimating work over time and leading to better ability to plan realistic chunks of work, an

   While it's not a fixed function pipeline, there is some level of correlation between 'brain damage at site x' and 'effect y' so while phrenology is bunk, the brain is also not just a blob of compute.

   You will have a very hard time because it has its own script (though I guess you could use C#) and it's very opinionated about lots of things like the node graph, etc.

   Be careful with clocks. I semi-intentionally developed clocks-not-looking-right as a dream test and then, not having thought about it for years, got a hilarious moment of disassociation when our conference room clock was broken and I happen

   Starcraft does this for it's map animations. Each player in the game has a different color (so you can tell who's units are who's) and on some level that color is implemented as an index into memory, so if you set the player

    I wonder if you could somehow get this working with libraries that are widely ported across platforms already like SDL.

    I wonder if the amount of labor required to type corrections is a better explanation than not wanting to pay for binding.

    I feel your pain. I wanted to combine AngularJS and BabylonJS for a GUI heavy RPG but it proved impractical.

    Tiberian Sun's technology is really unique and cool and I wish they'd open source it so I can see how they did everything. The 2d lighting really have it a distinct atmosphere.

    Here's a real example from a project I worked on in my homebrew ECS framework and later implemented in Godot: a guided missile. In the ECS project the notion of 'thing that can run into other things and do damage' so totally

    I think it's that it's just subtile enough that you question if it's moving at all, and that disagreement between expectation and observation creates a sense of unease.

    The subtile tilting of the example ad is slightly dizzying.

    My essentially perfect rubber dome keyboard finally gave out last summer (after more than a decade of service) so I decided to finally jump onto the mechanical keyboard bandwagon. I'd cut my teeth on a Model M and old spongy domes so l

    Apex Twin (the electronic music producer) put hours and hours of unreleased work[1] out for free a few years ago. One striking thing about the release is the number of true gems in there that outshine published work. 1: https://a

    This does a good job of illustrating how patterns in nature formed by cells can self organize. I haven't dug in to see how similar the implementation is, but when you look at the way these textures develop it sure looks like it.

    I got what I needed for implementing interpolation from one of these videos, definitely recommend them. Godot is great but it would rock if interpolation support was as deep as puppet/rset support (which, it turns out, works great at l

    It would be really interesting to see a crowdsourced index of real cost and insurer-paid cost for procedures across the US. Maybe a service that pays patients some nominal sum to share the data, then aggregates it and presents it to patient

    I sort of stumbled into a process like this. I built a game as a hobby project with the intent to hand it off to a community that I thought totally wanted it. Interest in the project was minor. So for the next project I tried to actually en

    I've used FastAPI for a while now. It's very nice. Make sure you combine it with Pydantic and type hint liberally.
