   I've switched back to the pre-llm / AI summaries period when I extensively search for the results and also discover tons of great web resources along the way. The novelty of instant answers from the chatbot is gone. Now I just del

   People care a lot about the story and the human artists behind their music, probably somewhat more than the music itself. When I discover some great metal songs, I'll look up their info, the band, the artists, their bio, everything rel

   Some people actually don't really like to learn new things. If the machine spits out plausible working code, they'd be perfectly happy with that. Personally I think AI is doing a lot more harm than good and I can't wait for t

    For more context, I've developed over 200 games[0] using libGDX and threejs. I've learnt so much from working with code-oriented frameworks that are closer to the system APIs. I can never imagine if I could do all that in today fu

    Nice article, engines are bloated and introduce so many overheads. If you don't intend to ship any AAA games, consider investing your times to learn code-first game frameworks like libGDX, MonoGame, love2d,... or even lower level stuff

    Browsers only support OpenGL ES so only if your shaders use any OpenGL specific features you have to rewrite. Otherwise, it's just plain simple to export to both desktop and browser targets.

    You can do that manually but it's tedious if you want to use multiple JDKs. Assuming you want to test two apps outside of an IDE, one only supports Java 8 API, and the other supports Java 21 API, you don't want to edit JAVA_HOME e

    It wouldn't be so bad if the ads are stuck in some dedicated regions of the chat interface. On the other hand, if it appears out of no where in the middle of the conversation, that'll be a huge turn off and terrible terrible mista

    The advantage of using a package manager like scoop or chocolatey is that you have a unified interface to manage multiple versions of JDK, and you can switch the default version system-wide on the fly, regardless of your IDE: scoop buck

    They already hit a dead end and cannot innovate any further. Instead of being more accurate and deterministic, tuning the model so it produces more human-like tokens is one of a few tricks left to attract investors money.

    libGDX is not in the same spotlight as Godot or Unity but still popular within Java devs circle. I'm not aware of any resources explaining the "why libGDX" but here are some differences, speaking from my own experiences: - Co
