1.) It seems to be largely Windows-only. I prefer to develop on Mac or Linux. It's primarily used with Unity and you can develop for Unity on a Mac. It is C# though.

Are you sure you want to roll your own ? I'd suggest Proton or another hosted solution unless your working on a team. Getting a single player game done solo is hard enough

What a great game, my only comment is I would love to be able to pay to remove the ads. Although from my own experience I know that this is probably more trouble than it's worth since the vast majority of people will never pay

I absolutely don't understand why the CEO keeps talking. Looks to me like the schools in the process of collapsing. https://lambdaschool.com/the-commons/update-lambda-school-te... Sometimes the best thing to say i

The lack of ports is what drove me to buy a Mini. Not exactly sure if I'll end up buying a MBP later though. I basically only use my Mac for recording audio, and once you get your mic set up , your not too portable anyway

Unless your already a subject matter expert, I can't understand what you think you'll be able to do here. What are you skilled at , what are you selling

The issue is each job might have you on call. So you can have some 80 hour work weeks and 8 hour weeks.

How many of these people are working three or four jobs ?

Only if I get full remote too. I never want to sit in an office again.

Factor in you also wouldn't have to waste money on enforcement. I think if someone really ran the numbers you can make an argument you're wasting money by charging people for public transit. You'd also encourage less people t

This feels very dangerous. While able body adults could just jump it, anyone with a disability could be trapped. What if their was a fire ? This is a good argument to just remove physical turnstiles and rely upon an honor system.

I stand corrected. I still think Windows is worth keeping around , but I love to see alternatives

I dualboot without issue. You can also run Linux inside of a VM on Windows. Or you can even have a dedicated gaming PC and a cheap Linux PC. Windows Subsystem for Linux can give you the best of both worlds. I don't love Windows, honest

I'm actually looking to take a different approach, I plan on working high paid contracts, and then taking 3 to 6 months off to travel after each one ends. Originally I was going to work super hard to try to save up so much money by 40,

I love that this always comes up, no gaming on Linux will never be as easy as Windows. It works about 90% of the time, but in that 10% there are probably a couple of games you're just not going to be able to get working. If you're

For all of human history people have had to move to where they can feed their kids. The smart people are leaving, of course if you want to stay in LA and struggle your entire life you're free to

Or people can just leave la. The idea that were all on this team together trying to find solutions is naive, you need to do what's best for yourself and your family

If you're not, you're going to endlessly frustrate yourself when this doesn't do exactly what you need it to. I guess I'd be more interested if the tool generated python code or something, and then I can manually edit it

I can imagine this will end up creating more problems than it solves, for example depending on where you're from you might use various colloquialisms in speech which no AI will ever really get. For example if I said something like hey

In that case why wouldn't I just use Unity. For $1,500 a year or whatever, I get to use one of the most supported game engines in the world. Revenue share becomes a very bad idea if you actually expect the game to do well

I think everyone should be able to write a Python script to change a CSV file. Likewise with reading, everyone can read stuff on Instagram. Most of us can't read the Magna Carta. Likewise I'm pretty good but I can't code in A

>But having devs work in Unity or Unreal to produce a game is not really all that hard. From OP. Even with an engine game dev is much harder than front end web dev. The depressed salaries are due to the amount of passion game devs have.

As somebody went through multiple evictions as a teen, I agree 100%. If you don't come from a stable household your teenage years are going to be absolutely horrible. You're going to know enough to understand that the adults aroun

Any reason why you went with GPL. Unless you only want to encourage open source video games, this is much more restrictive than an outright commercial license. Have you considered dual licensing at all, maybe I send you $1,000 or so and I g

The idea is this $10,000 is the last bit of money the state of California will spend on you. If you want to take that $10,000 spend it all on anime, and then camp in the woods in Colorado cool just don't become California's proble

by offtop5 5y ago
$10,000 is enough to get you back on your feet assuming you leave California, in many places you could actually rent an apartment for $800 a month or so. 10K gets you in your place for three or four months, gets some furniture ,gives you mo

If it wasn't completely illegal, I'd argue to give each homeless person $10,000 and to exile them for life from the state of California. I guess if you get arrested in California after that maybe you get exiled to Siberia or somet
