This kind of reminds me of the article: https://spacetimedb.com/blog/databases-and-data-oriented-des... Where basically the ECS boils down to what is essentially a relational database, and here it looks like that'

The long term answer to enshittification in software is ultimately open source. Given enough time, there will be an open source version of every kind of software, leading to commodification of the most important stuff. This is why selling c

0.6 percent of a model with 890 million parameters is still 5.34 million parameters. That's still pretty big. Maybe big enough to fake normals, learn some albedo smoothing functions, and learn a depth estimator perhaps??

I do a lot of Blender 3d modeling as part of my hobby gamedev stuff. I think one thing that a lot of folks tend to forget is that quad and tri meshes are only one of SEVERAL 3d modeling techniques. It just so happens that this is the techni

What I find interesting is that b/c we have so much video data, we have this thing that can project the future in 2d pixel space. Projecting into the future in 3d world space is actually what the endgame for robotics is and I imagine d

Steam approves EVERYTHING so long as the store description matches the game content. Actually, Steam is essentially equivalent to Applab. Applab and steam both have a manual review process that is not comprehensive. The difference is that s

This metric is called the attach rate, and it's lower for quest than Xbox by an order of magnitude supposedly. However, even 10 percent of Xbox owners actually only have 1 game - call of duty. It's just that CoD players play it ev

Eventually yes. Honestly I have joystick mappings setup in the games input configuration, but I no longer own a joystick or hotas, so somebody is gonna have to verify this for me. Gamedev ain't my day job, and the reality is most folks

Let me sell you an amazing cancer test my friend. It's 99.5 percent accurate. It works through an incredibly novel mathematical technique. You simply go to the patient and tell them they don't have cancer. Since 99.5 percent of pe

Sounds about as good as ElevenLabs.io Hopefully if this ships on AWS, it will support SSML tags. I used Elevenlabs.io for all the voices in my VR game ( https://roguestargun.com ), but its still lacking on the emotion front which

This is a pretty astute move. Unreal tech powers EVERYTHING at Disney now ever since the development of virtual production leveraging real-time rendering. On top of the that the Fortnite demographic is growing up and videogame based IP move
