The real reason so many people use discord is the network effects. My friends and I joined discord really late in the game but for various reasons we eventually needed it. Eg, game development discussion groups and eventual marketing, or yo

My XPS, running at 4K in Ubuntu, lags. The machine was not strong enough to power it’s display. I run it at one step up from 1080p if I want it to run smoothly

Wasm and rust sound amazing. Are there any downsides? Performance issues? I heard there can be issues with dom manipulation but might be misremembering

Only 100? Create-react-app said it pulled in something like 1600 last I saw (is that accurate? It must include duplicates, right?). It makes me nervous about security and stability when I see that

I use windows for affinity suite and unreal 4 and I think that’s it. About half my gaming needs windows too. Everything else is Ubuntu. Ubuntu is a great OS, it’s just missing a few apps (mostly graphics related) that certain people need fo

All the webfonts I’ve ever seen have a variation of this clause, which I think unintentionally makes them unusable on the web for their stated purposes. Do they think that @font-face prevents downloads? Anybody can just right click in the n

Other professions have professional organizations that have strict rules about maintaining the public trust in the profession. Challenging each other’s competence publicly is really discouraged. By contrast, many trades people can criticize

1440p is the way to go. 4K is harder to sustain and you start needing some scaling as well

You should just encrypt your data yourself before it gets to your provider. It takes an extra step and is annoying but then you can store the data anywhere that’s cheap and convenient

Speaking of starting a business, it’s really hard to find reliable information on how to do this in Canada from a paperwork, legal, and accounting point of view. It’s a real chore sorting out all your requirements and responsibilities

Thanks! It will eventually need to compete with games made by full teams, so there are still a lot of features and refinements planned

There are several solo indie game devs who passed that threshold. Jonathan blow (braid), Daisuke Amaya (cave story), Dean Dodrill (dust), Markus Persson (mine craft), Lucas Pope (papers please), etc The average outcome for a serious indie g

I used to love chapters in Canada as somewhere you could go to sit and browse books casually in comfy chairs, and just loiter. I spent a ton on books back then. Now those chairs and tables are almost entirely gone. It doesn’t make sense, th

I personally find gnomes keyboard driven Ux to be the best option out there. Managing multiple workspaces/desktops in Mac is almost as good, but isn’t even close in windows. Foss projects do need to attract more ux designers though. I

All the best developers I know are over 40, if not in their 50s or 60s. I don’t understand the stigma. All the young smart programmers I know will be better next year than last year

For my game, I started with unity + a bunch of plugins, but switched to unreal a few months later for a variety of reasons. C++ and a lot of custom systems - third party game plugins seem to have a lot more issues than in full stack dev. It

Your production servers end up needing a variety of secrets, whether db passwords, encryption keys, access tokens, or whatever else. You want to be able to set these automatically, but don’t want to hard code any of it or have it appear in

I was told in a screening interview once that they don’t really need people who can solve problems or write maintainable code, or who understand software design. They said the tech lead will do all that. They said they just really needed pe

In indie game dev, everyone’s on discord and so are your extremely-important potential players. Whether you enjoy discord or dislike it, you’re going to be on there. It has really strong networks effects

This would have been a better analysis if it ignored headlines and used comments, perhaps in combination with some sentiment analysis. Also, nfts, Tesla, etc aren’t really tech trends but rather consumer and valuation trends. They should ha
