Very high salaries are a countermeasure against conflicts of interest and “lobbying.” We can trust our leaders better if we don’t have to worry quite as much about other parties tempting them

There are entire genres like visual novels, kinetic novels, story games, and even many triple a games that lean heavily on story and visuals rather than gameplay. Gameplay is only a small part of a great many “games.” In terms of budget too

There are a lot of articles out there about how the contracts the freelancing platforms impose on contractors are bad. Maybe they dont leave freelancers with a lot of options in these cases?

Fair, but on the other hand, the author clearly wrote the most deliberately provocative, clickbaity, and misleading title they could have instead of an accurate, descriptive one. Satire in the titles of scientific articles is a weird choice

Next article will be titled “coccaine: an underused tool in high-performance boardroom negotiation” Are the side effects and addictive potential not bad enough to cancel out the benefits here? By saying it’s under used, you are saying more

I actually buy a second copy (paper or drm-free pdf) if I decide I need to remember an audiobook or take notes. Even just being able to flip back to a previous section is something that paper books excel at. You get a sense of “what page so

I’m hesitant to participate in more game dev communities unless the people in that community are unusually serious about their projects. That seems somewhat rare unfortunately. Actually making a commercially viable indie game takes incredib

What happens to people’s money during inflation when that money is tied up in stocks or mutual funds rather than in savings? Does the inflation affect the stock prices, and partially protect you from the inflation?

I think most of the commands are of the form “talk about x” “tell about x” and “ask about x.” There are also “Galatea, come here” type commands. It definitely takes some some experimentation to figure the parser out unfortunately

Part of the fun is making the engine and figuring out how the games work under the hood. The world model is surprisingly simple and flexible in these games. Learning about this style of world model gave me some ideas for other projects

Hi Scott. I started playing parser based IF less than a month ago. I find it so immersive that the only parallel I have for the experience is high quality VR. I love it so much that I wrote my own parser engine 2 weeks ago and I have some i

Play Galatea. It’s a famous, award winning parser game about a conversation with a sentient statue and has approx 70 endings. The game models your relationship along several axes as you go and the writing is superb

Agreed. When they criticize the OOP approach to modelling game objects, they really needs to give an example of how they think it should be done using the data approach. There are a dozen ways to do this that they may be referring to, I’m n
