He's at least safe from IP infringement because it utilized a completely different approach . I guess it's understandable the legal dept would be upset, because this different approach would be hard for them to see. It's als

I always liked the Yahoo Pipes concept... but it didn' seem take off... and I personally found it too limited for everything I tried to do with it. Perhaps it's just another case of the old "visual programming language"

I would guess the idea was to enable non-coders (esp. artists, level designers etc) to handle many of their needs themselves - for faster iteration. But maybe the UnrealScript wasn't simple enough in practice to do that? Or perhaps, gi

Am I cynical? The recent changes in Unreal 4 make me think the company is in extremely serious trouble. It's because they aren't addressing the key reason people buy a graphics engine ( viz graphics), but all this ancilliary stuf

oh yeah, for sure. per mWh, ARM wins. i just meant they aren't grabbing raw performance any time soon... of course, to 'disrupt', it doesn't need to be as fast... just fast enough for what people need. so the Q is: wh

i'm amazed and hurt that dalvik doesn't do inlining (but if JIT will need a few runs to get going... not unreasonable on a phone, if the app can stay resident in memory) for my fellow perplexed: ART is a java runtime (dalvik alt)

That's a mischaracterisation of my comment. Toyota is about improvement/perfecting (Deming's "quality", Six Sigma). The examples I gave are about new product categories . To repeat one of them: before Sony, there w

An alternative view is that, if you make good handaxes, you'll have more money (or patronage), meaning your children have more resources and advantages. You may increase your attractiveness to mates (who value their children's wel
