I think that wording with the "exception" is from the OSX developer program. As far as I can remember, the iOS info sheet has always been taxative with no exceptions about executable code. Of course all wordings allow Apple to sta

I installed the basic C++ tools (precompiled modules, Win10 and 8.1 SDKs, etc) and it has taken 2.5GB out of my C: drive (hardcoded location for the Windows 10 Kit apparently) plus 2GB on my install location. Then I added NodeJS tools and e

Is it viable for those of us with only a handful of GB free in our C: drives? 2015 and previous would only put a few bits in the "install location", and still pollute the C: drive with up to 20 GB of stuff of hardcoded paths.

I had that happen with AeroFS instead of Dropbox, simply by using a repo on one machine that was not synced to the contents of the other machine. This can happen either if a machine doesn't finish sync to dropbox after using a repo in

File locking is potentially huge for game developers and our large, binary, unmergeable asset files. The jury's still out for potential performance issues in large repos, and the practical solutions for setting up a fully self-hosted s

When you have lived your life feeling at the edge of innovation and laughing at people who don't get it. And suddenly you realize that some of the newest stuff, you don't get it. That's scary.

I see the Windows version is a 1MB download and the Mac & Linux are 21MB, so I was surprised to ready Python and Qt are involved. I take it the Windows setup is a downloader?

You can't entice EVERYONE, but you can definitely attract or tip the scale for some or many. Your ideas of "better" and "worse" seem rather limited.

Arguing why "people trot out" socialism from a purely individual financials POV is in large part a normative judgement. In any case, I certainly don't expect a tech visa in France to hope to attract people whose life goal is

You don't understand; this is not about what YOU (or should I say WE, highly sought-after engineers) can have. The point is that it is an ENTIRE COUNTRY (for the most part) that has access to those benefits and standards of living.

A lot of game developers agree with it, that's for sure. Many Golang fans probably will as well. (The author of the concept is both btw). The goal in general is to produce code whose behaviour, compilation and runtime performance, and

This is pretty much what we did in the Commandos games back in '97. As explained in other posts, you can't use some simple depth metric for the entire box and z-sort them because elongated boxes will cause problems. One of the rea
