I try not to let code like that make it into git and into the wild. But this is a sane solution to prevent a very bad day.

Probably a case of “Logically this makes sense but let me branch and do it manually to make sure” and never got back to it. I have code like that. A return then some body of sane looking but outcome unknown code.

As an engine developer, I get what you’re saying. However, Workshop files are workshop files, mods are mods. Sometimes they are the same, sometimes they are not. In the cases where they are not, redistributing them outside of workshop is go

First off, Steam Workshop. The way Workshop works is it requires deep integration into the asset management of the game. This deep integration often requires custom build of the game to support it. Stitching packages of assets isn’t somethi

Ultima Online launch day had a similar feel. Servers melted under the load of 1500 (maybe 2,000). After a weekend of reading the booklet and studying the map, I was able to login. Only to find that cave on the map I wanted to explore was be

You can also play chords polyrhythmically. Timpani is a great example.

This was how my brother played it. He was too dumb to know the difference because the box art literally looked like CS’s splash screen. CS != CZ but nevertheless, a steam account was a steam account, and technically CZ was HL so he download

Meta is doing things for Meta. Yes, it helps the greater ecosystem but they have problems no one else has outside of Google and Amazon and a few foreign players. Presto, React, etc are things they needed and decided to open source. Valve ne

I still have my 6 (7?) digit ID from those days as my steamID. It got rolled into a larger one but still kept the old digits. Pretty cool of them.

It wasn’t just CS, Team Fortress had a huge player base. Natural-Selection as well. There were like 7 or 8 mods for HL1 that were “on-par” with the quality of HL1, which says something about Hammer Editor and the toolkit they had at the tim

exactly. If you block go packages via firewall IT rules, you block github.com software engineering work. It's the one thing I think that's holding Golang back. Deno as well. I know it looks novel but it's a security nightmare

yeah, go modules have streamlined golang development so much. Providing a custom domain configuration on your site allows go to grab the code vs a user visiting it in their browser.

Go is tough to get approved in certain Red Hat markets. Simply because it calls out to github for packages without an audit tool. A lot of finance companies have blocked the use of Golang because of that. Totally fine with Java and their ow

You’re debugging in production, I highly doubt running bare metal services is in your wheelhouse. Your services should be logging to another system. If you need a shell to debug, you don’t need bare metal Golang. Go with Alpine (pun). While
