This one https://fabiensanglard.net/Game_Engine_Black_Book/index.php ? Looks like it's not out yet, is it?

Careful now, implying the inventors of gets() may not be flawless beings of divine intellect whose creation has outshone whatever the second coming of Christ may end up becoming will get you a slow and painful death.

They’re not as necessary on Android because Android has alternative App distribution methods.

And then you can only install 2 apps in total since the reprovisioning app takes one of the three slots. Apple carefully designed this process to be as annoying as possible.

I would have expected banks to demand repayment for debt in a more stable currency so inflation can’t help their debtors

It looks excellent and addresses all the issues I have with json, yaml, XML and co, but developers love to use "simple" technologies that then cause unending pain later due to being too simple. So I wonder if this will see much u

<select multiple> on mobile devices is so good - why don't the finally improve the implementations on the desktop as well? The arcane 90s UI paradigm it currently uses everywhere just doesn't work. And please, just give us a

I guess you'll still get ads, they just won't be personalized. Just like how windows does it when you opt out of tracking.

Yeah. But maybe game devs should finally realize their game is not the only application on my computer and make HD textures an optional download. Games look fine without them and with every modern game using TAA anyway, things will be blur

I wish they were, new games being 120GB+ is insane.

And yet every time someone praises EU big tech regulations here, someone from the US inevitably complains it’s just the EU being anticompetitive and that they should also deregulate so they can have big tech of their own. The things we lear

Why don't the safe file I/O operations panic when /proc/self/mem is opened for writing? I understand why they don't want to make all of File I/O unsafe just for edge cases like this, but shouldn't th

I just wish the de facto standard framework, ASP.net core, was more of a batteries included kind of thing. Diving into an ASP.net application not written by you is frustrating because it’s almost like its own framework you need to learn.

That’s not because of Go, that’s because of protected mode and virtual memory. If run on a system that doesn’t have that, Go could absolutely read and write to system memory.

I wonder why that is. Do App Store Applications get extra privileges? Why isn’t being signed enough for an application to store secrets only it can access in the keychain?
106.
by Pesthuf 3y ago
Is there even a way to opt in to having a secret be accessible only for your process? Like, a way to maybe sign your executable and then use a windows api that then gets "oh. This process is made by the same vendor that created this se

The World of Warcraft Server emulator TrinityCore has a hot reload system for its Scripting (Boss AI, Spells etc.). AFAIK when it's enabled, those modules are compiled into their own shared library and when you make a change to one of

This three class developer system on iOS is ridiculous. There's the normal developer who can do little more on iOS that you couldn't also do with a web app. There's the "blessed" developer with special entitlements

Not really. That kind of code makes it easy to render something initially, but absolute hell to update and keep your state and UI in sync.

I’ve seen screenshots of people tricking it into solving captchas.

I sure hope the dev who was made to implement it kept the paperwork that proves who made them do it. Otherwise, they’ll find out how loyalty is rewarded nowadays.

Clickbait headline, but the article is great!

That’s my experience too. It looks like some modern games that are 64 bit and use DX12 and thus game porting toolkit‘s dx2metal work quite okay, but 32 bit DirectX<11 games run particularly awfully. And I’m running what the community has

I don’t think apple wants us to play games with Wine and Game Porting Toolkit. Especially not games on Steam. Apple wants developers to use it to port their games to macOS (using Metal) and distribute them on the App Store (only).

When using hg, I often accidentally created multiple heads for a branch and I remember that being really annoying and unintuitive to undo.

Now that even Microsoft distributes their new apps like this… I fear we lost this war. 32GB of RAM will soon be the minimum for people who run multiple apps at the same time.

Every time DNT comes up, advertisers are like "but, but, 15 years or so ago, Microsoft enabled it by default for a few months! Hence we can't honor it! Booyah!"

Web components might be better for writing isolated and reusable components, but for gluing stuff together to make your application work, the DOM API is just garbage. It was made to edit XML documents and it shows. Also, one reason I don&#x
