Very cool idea; I always wished the NaNoWriMo energy would persist past November. That's actually why I added forums to my own writing site and have had _decent_ luck keeping the momentum going year-round (at least, some years). If you

It's long after 1pm PST -- does anyone else have access to this yet? I'm on a paid US account (so I assume I should have access) but still get "You do not currently have access to this feature". Maybe it's because I

Ah, I just wrote a thin wrapper connecting it to a discordrb bot so people in our discord could use it too. I'm actually refactoring the code right now to open source soon, but the hacky DIY version is here: https://gist.git

Figured I'd share my system prompt as well since it's been an immense help in transitioning into game development full-time. The biggest problem I've seen is that it doesn't always get the Unity 2022 docs right, but I&#x

Really just shows how little effort is put into making those foss tools easy to use for the layperson (NB: not implying that they should, just that they don't). Turns out people will pay to be able to use a slightly simplified version

Speaking of game theory, there is probably a much lower number that achieves the same goal, though. Your average attacker might be equally motivated to go for $20k, or $10k, or $5k. $1k, maybe not. $100, probably not. $1, almost certainly n

I ran a small one in Missouri and have a few friends that ran ones here and there over the years. The two big reasons I and my friends don't run them anymore: rent costs and COVID.

I remember older programmers making fun of me for using an IDE and autocomplete when I was learning to code as a kid, claiming I'd never learn if I relied on tools like that to "do the job for me". This feels very similar.

The very first image highlighted on the front page is a topless woman [to hypothetically talk to?]. Should there be a NSFW warning somewhere?

Really interesting concept, but I think something is very wrong with whatever it is doing to (intentionally?) highjack browser histories/navigation on every page. For example, if I just click "Refried beans" on the homepage,

Is that true? If they gave you their services for free, there'd be a limited amount of time until they could no longer give away those services at all (e.g. they run out of money). You can still technically put your own financial gains

This is an API for developers to build opt-in apps on top of. The user (the Tesla owner) has to explicitly grant access to an app for it to do anything.

I think the (implied) distinction is this: * Apple has billions of dollars and a hierarchy of decision-makers who could prioritize the R&D and implementation of making "gaming on Mac" a reality * Linux is a distributed, commun

It directly addresses it: the single-digit % cash difference in profit-sharing between Unity and Unreal's programs aren't what most people are worried about with Unity's changes. The bigger issue is that Unity is trying to as

In my spheres (full-time game dev), I've already seen ripples down to teachers/professors switching from Unity to Unreal in their courses. Many of the content creators I've enjoyed in Unity are also either switching or consid

While this may be true, the overwhelming response to this tool that I've seen in my artist circles has been strictly negative. GI won some brownie points among artists when they banned user-submitted AI content and filed a lawsuit agai

For anyone trying to watch the video, the actual content starts at 7:24 and runs until 13:36. What a weird format for a (release?) video.

It sounds like Chrome accounts might accomplish this for you. I have 7-8 profiles for different personas that seem to sandbox cookies and other identity-adjacent features quite well.

This looks promising, after looking at Azure/AWS/GC/Linode GPU instances all day. When you say "eventually terminated", what magnitude of time are you referring to? Hours? Days? Weeks? Months? Years?

Ironically, most complaints I see about Threads (as a still-active user) is that it has too many users (chronological feeds pushing content too far down, overwhelmed by advertisers already, and little to no sense of community).

I guess it depends on what you consider a "decent amount". Within the overall context of whether text posts would be popular or not on TikTok, 5-10% of globally-trending posts being text-heavy seemed like a decent amount to me but

You can scroll through the "Discover" tab which has depersonalized trends across the whole app. I just took a quick scroll through and it seems like at least ~5-10% of videos trending right now have text that take up >50% of th

The article doesn't make it clear, but I doubt "users" includes consumers of the API (and the second-order users of the apps using the API). It seems not only reasonable but expected to see the general user count fall off in
