That has been VR for a while, but I think VR experiences are now truly worthwhile pursuing in 2024 and beyond. I think we've been there for a few years now. It does depend a lot on what you prefer to do with your free time in the first

I more or less agree in that regard, I think social media is a terrible place to be putting your professional life in general especially if it's negative. That's a personal opinion I guess, I'm not a very negative person so I

This is true for even regular software APIs. By all accounts, we could have a beautifully interwoven quilt of standardized APIs that connect any system to any other system with ease. But business realities mean that just cannot exist, it ac

It's worth noting that you do not actually know what other's roles are like, even if you have done the same role before. I find stress is usually about the company and people in it, not the actual work you were hired to do. I love

I have abandoned many games due to cheaters, I think it's great to look at technical solutions but I think the real solution is in community, community tools and less lock in to matchmaking. We don't have this problem on well mode

The outrage would be from the security and privacy concious crowd I believe. Kernel level anti-cheat is a very invasive piece of software to require to play a game, and it does not solve all problems magically. I think this is the real reas

Nice! This looks pretty well thought out so maybe you have considered this already, but you should sort out how you want to handle your local laws surrounding hosting files and your culpability. You will pretty quickly get nefarious and cop

I think developers underestimate the ecosystem and community aspects. Software is definitely not a space where "if you build it, they will come". There is better codebases, but no one has held a candle to the ecosystem yet. I beli

If words being similar is truly an issue we would have vastly different languages. Related words for related concepts is very normal, and if you are a professional in this space it's the least we can do to recognize the difference. We

The precision should be no trouble, but you should understand your printers tolerance capabilities. If you print a 30mm hole and a 30mm box to go in it, it might not fit, usually you would oversize the hole or undersize the box. By how much

I don't want to paint with too broad of a brush but the role of a manager is generally to trust their team on specifics. So how would a manager be able to spot a hallucination and stop it from informing business decisions? It's no

Different birds of the same species can have different outcomes I have seen, anecdotally. Two cockatoos, one thinks a plush toy cockatoo is a bird and another correctly identifies it as a toy. Another observation I have had is bird on a scr

I don't know if I would recommend chess to people who struggle with online addictions. 3 minute games and ELO make it feel pretty similar to other hedonic treadmils.

Because AI is used in the gaming industry to mean a stand in for human behaviour, the use of the term AI has been quite haphazard in my view. AGI would be real intelligence, different entirely as you said. AI should be a system trying to re

Long term flexibility is a very surprising way to describe a JS stack. They are easy to build in, but there is nothing robust about the ecosystem. When in 5 years a PM asks me to add that simple multi step form, I'll probably have to t

For example in a plugin system, I can say you must inherit from BasePlugin and in code I can enforce that, BasePlugin can then have some protected functions that I can disallow from being overridden. It's good for frameworks and extens

Traits and contracts or interfaces, but even still inheritance has it's merits. Being fast and easy is a benefit, and I find defensive programming in extensible systems can benefit from a foundation of expecting inheritance.
