It's been the same story for the last 20 years (or longer but that's when I started). There's an infinite supply of young naive people who will work for poor pay and under terrible conditions because "games". There&

I don't think it's possible to build a complete life at her age. Even at 30 I already felt that every new move was me giving up on something. You can't "catch-up" on life not lived together. Now I wouldn't even

The Internet may switch to 3 but industry will stay on 2.7 for the next decade and no EoL will change that. There is absolutely nothing that can change that because there is zero benefit to rewriting a decade's worth of code and no man

A union will solve nothing other than leeching off some money from the workers (yay!). If you want to solve the problem you have to educate the credible little children who think working in gamedev is a privilege and are willing to work for

Once the algorithms realise that everyone commits at least a few crimes a day they will become 100% infallible by issuing arrest warrants for anyone with a pulse.

"Scripting" vs coding is not a clear cut case also a lot of studios (back in the day that is, since now the unreal model is different and everyone has access to the source) had source access so games would usually make changes to

A bit over dramatic. I remember Unreal 3 was close to 2 mil and that's the normal region for games (and has been for a decade) and trust me, gamedev studios are not staffed by seasoned programmers.

By other side he meant they didn't want to give people the tool to remove certain races from the results. I know that logically this is the same exact thing but from a PR angle it's not.

Based on having worked for 3 corporations using python I can tell you it's not going to happen by 2020. Python 2.7 will live on in big companies for a couple more decades. I will end my career before python 3 is adopted. It's more

No, it's not the same. If unsuccessful at google you will waste a day of your life and and keep your old job. At your place you will waste up to 90 days of your life and lose your old job. Not the same. It's the same to you but it

That is a real cruel process. You are taking advantage of your position as an employer - are you at least honest with those people and tell them there's a 90% chance you will fire them in 90 days? Sure, it might be good for you as a co

Never heard of adnauseam before, the developers deserve a Nobel Peace Prize. The argument saying that it damages the publishers and not the ad networks is pure nonsense. By damaging the publisher's ability to make money of ads you also

By "here" I meant my office. Tcl is not elegant, it's simplistic. Just look at the ugly workarounds for language shortcomings like upvar. I'm not saying javascript is elegant (is anyone?) but it's less unwieldy, qui
