What a fantastic and succinct description. Developing something new, whether you're a startup or an established company, feels like that. In a large company, dying may mean something less dramatic, but it may still lead to a team or di

Unity apparently had no clue what to do with the toolset when they had the team that built it, you can imagine what they will do with it now without the team. Weta sure isn't re-buying it because they already have it. It's been li

I don't know if that bit of dialogue was in the original script, but it is pretty much the story of how the actress Jenette Goldstein went to audition for the movie - she thought it would be about immigrants (she was one herself, an Am

Probably best to say "simulate the appearance of reasoning": looks and feels 100% acceptable at a surface level, but the actual details and conclusions are completely wrong / do not follow.

Openness sure, but neutrality? I thought they had always been very explicitly positioned on the "ethical AGI" side.

There's not much to discuss about this submission, but here's a twitch link to the talk from Andreas Fredriksson today at Handmade Seattle. It's about some of the approaches they took to make their absolutely incredible Eon d

Last I remember, you still need a Visual Studio license to use the C# plugins for VSCode. (free for personal use etc) They're all part of the package, whether Visual Studio itself exists or not.

My rule of thumb used to be shell scripts past 100 lines get converted to Python, and Python scripts past 1000 lines should get converted to something else. But in practice, the Python has stayed almost always.

The blue noise example is crazy. It's always been trivial to me to cross-eye into MagicEyes, I can even comfortably scroll the page and never lose the 3D. I had no idea there were (if I understood correctly) adversarial background patt

I've only ever been involved in something close to that "tech debt default" in my career. All other cases of throwing something out were either planned to begin with (so intentionally a throwaway prototype, not tech debt), or

I took one for the team and updated Brave to latest. No VPN services of any kind that I can see. Could it be that I'm in EU?

One of my favorite A500 demos of the old times is Technological Death by Mad Elks. It's 5 minutes of mad and unhinged fun. It was a strong inspiration for me to try hard on my PC work, and while I got to work on pretty decent and even

The demoscene died when the PC became too powerful for hardware tricks to compete. Actually, it died when people started making demos in C and horror C++. No wait, the demoscene died when 3D cards made art/modeling the only valuable

It's very good for its time, but also very harsh. It was polished to perfection in Wipeout 2/XL.

A friend started his profile with a very visible "if you are a recruiter contacting me for a job I will mock your attempt in public". It was a bit cringey, but proved the point that many recruiters didn't look.

Westworld season 4 portrays how a system like this could be used. Sci fi tech at this point, but "something like that" would be the goal/vision.

Diablo 4 has a lot of value, and the core moment-to-moment gameplay feel remains excellent. I loved the campaign, and the openworld in which it happens. And THAT 10-minute long cutscene, I'm a lifelong cutscene skipper but that thing w

I joined Radical Entertainment a few years after Hit & Run, and I can confirm that it was filled with very good engineers (and artists!), with really solid hiring and leadership. It wasn't without its flaws, but it was an excellent

Below a certain level of skill, you simply can't express yourself. You can try, but then you step back and see what you built was nothing like what you intended to build, and does not express what you wanted it to express; not to yours

That can probably be described as gross misconduct or insubordination, and be used as a valid reason for immediate dismissal with no benefits. Then you'd have to argue that the company's demand was not reasonable, and then it soun

Stop having new ideas. It sounds strange, but as long as you keep loving the idea that you constantly come up with new ideas, you will continue to do so, and the new ideas will distract you from the current project(s). Ideas always sound an
