The entire extensibility story in Unreal series has been amazing from the get go. Where QuakeC was really more of a scripting language "on the side", with UT it felt more like the entire game is written in UnrealScript, with some

Probably quite similar. But your comment above is clearly assuming that said impression is real.

You have a very cartoon villain image of tech workers in your head. While Tesla-driving libertarian techbros are certainly a thing, this doesn't even accurately represent the majority of employees in Big Tech, nevermind the industry as

> humans derive a lot of their self-evaluation as people from labor. We're conditioned to do so, in large part because this kind of work ethic makes exploitation easier. Doesn't mean that's our natural state, or a desira

The difference is that unlike SWEs, the people doing all that bullshit work are much better at networking, so they will (collectively) find a reason why they shouldn't be replaced with AI and push it through. SWEs could do so as well,

It has improved drastically, as evident by the kinds of issues these things can do with minimal supervision now.

"Claude Code" by itself is not specific enough; which model are we talking about?

Those kinds of reports seem to be a thing at all big tech corps now.

> I personally like the behavior of coroutines not running unless you tell them to run -- it makes it easier to reason about what code runs when. In .NET the difference was known as "hot" vs "cold" tasks. "Hot&qu

.NET has promises that you can poll synchronously. The problem with them is that if you have a single thread, then by definition while your synchronous code is running, none of the async callbacks can be running. So if you poll a Task and i

Agents already do this exact thing, except that the go-to language for Claude to write one-off scripts in is usually Python.

The state is not the group. It loves to pretend that it is, but the group it actually represents is far smaller than the group it rules.

Browsers and terminals have "normal menus". Some examples would include Vivaldi and iTerm. I agree though that placing it on top of the screen (as opposed to the window to which it applies) doesn't make any sense. Windows act

Perhaps instead you could teach your neighbor how to assign drive letters to drives so that the same thing always ends up on the same letter. Because it can do that. OTOH on Linux out of the box they'd get /media/usb0, /
