Yeah scrum, or any process really, sucks when it's used like spyware. I've been lucky enough to be part of teams in companies that don't treat their employees like the enemy. So doing scrum the every day work aspect happens a

Yeah, I didn't mention in my earlier comment but I've found that scrum does work better with larger teams because it adds ownership into the process. You can define ownership with Kanban (or any process) but it's not integrat

I actually do agree with you that kanban is very flexible - and I have used plenty of additional swimlanes - for my original example we tried using "concepting" stage, multiple iterations, "mix" swimlanes for individual

Beware blanket statements! I work with sound in games and have multiple times tried to do Kanban, both from an internal team and an outsourcing team, because of basically the same reasons mentioned in the article - it's agile and task

PS3 dev kit was my first console dev experience, pretty late in the cycle so the dev kit looked like a beefy consumer model. We had one of the second gen ones in the office though. I miss really getting to know the machine and working with

Thanks! Seriously any suckage reduction no matter how minuscule is a vast improvement over current template errors. At my rate I'll be on C++20 by 2025 so looking forward to it.

Concepts seem great, but do they/will they always depend on using templates? Because I try to use templates as a last ditch escape hatch due to debugging/error messages being gnarly. I'm slowly working my way through the C++

Strong disagree with it being "solvable" - bad actors will always exist (don't feel like I need to explain this one, I'm sure we all agree), arms race will always fail because for them it is the PRIMARY focus for income,

It occurs to me that LLM have the exact opposite strengths and weaknesses of traditional computing - where trad comp is good at hard calculation and storage and bad at soft interpretive, LLMs are good at soft interpreting but bad at anythin

Exactly this - it's a real startup move, done by a company that probably shouldn't be doing startup pivots at this stage. I think he got the thrust right - Facebook will continue losing share if they continue the 90s MS buy all yo

I tried this last week and despite constant reminders to sometimes fail and provide challenges to overcome, it never worked. Frankly I’m amazed the OP chat worked so well, anything with numbers that fall over time just failed when I tried.

“Get LLM to generate 80% of code, tweak 20%” just doesn’t make sense. It takes more time to understand others code than to write it yourself for anything complex. LLM might be good for boilerplate, or for brainstorming architecture, but I s

Yes 100% - Berklee production folks fresh out of school have a reputation of being know-it-alls with next to nil real experience. I took a song writing class once and the main point was to repeat the title of the song at least 3 times in th

Yeah, the key difference being softbank has a large enough portfolio it theoretically doesn't matter if most of them don't work out. I think it's a poor long term strategy, but that's with hindsight, and I understand the

Yeah I agree - while I think Mark is showing some pretty knee jerk decision making lately (copying twitter subscription, chasing AI), I think the massive investment in VR shows a vision - if it will pay off or not is up for debate. And this

That's the crazy thing - it's acting like a movie version of an AI because it's been trained on movies. It's playing out like a bad b-plot because bad b-plots are generic and derivative, and it's training is literal

If you mean "gaming industry" meaning gambling machines, then yes. If you mean "games industry" as in video games then it's just not true that it's "all about exploiting psychological inefficiencies".

Since there’s a lot of wrong info in the responses… snus is the word for snuff in Sweden and traditionally had an extra sanitization step (boiling IIRC), which was different enough that it became it’s own term, because quality was better. S
