Hobbyist game dev here with random systemd thoughts. I’ve recently started to lean on systemd more as my ‘local game server process manager’ process. At first I thought I’d have to write this up myself as a whole slew of custom code, but th

I created an app using a similar concept as a hackathon project, in meteorJS. It was fun! We won 2nd place.

To those who have worked with autonomous background agents techniques, can you describe the stack and the workflow? Has anyone set up a local only autonomous agent, using an open source model from somewhere like huggingface? Still a bit con

Sci-fi readers who’ve read Ender’s Game will recognize this style of software as similar in concept to the Mind Game Ender Wiggins plays. In the book, the Mind Game renders a game world based on the subject’s mind (conscious, subconscious)

Thank goodness I went full tilt into Godot (and became a donor) after Unity’s last controversy. Godot is much more hacker friendly than Unity, IMO. Ymmv

What is everyone’s favorite parallel agent stack? I’ve just become comfortable using GH copilot in agent mode, but I haven’t started letting it work in an isolated way in parallel to me. Any advise on getting started?

Enterprise software engineers have to be good with AI to know when it will save time deploying it. Understanding where it’s effective and how to use AI tooling is a sought after skill. I would advise programmers to understand an AI tooling

Minor off-topic quibble about streams: I’ve been learning about network programming for realtime multiplayer games, specifically about input and output streams. I just want to voice that the names are a bit confusing due to the perspective

I recall that AI trained on AI output over many cycles eventually becomes something akin to noise texture as the output degrades rapidly. Won’t most AI produced content put out into the public be human curated, thus heavily mitigating this

Not a bad concept. I already do something similar I already use LLMs to quiz me on books that I'm reading. The current book I've been studying is "Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach (8th edition)." Obviously since

I think the implicit guarantee is if American business and workers are harvesting minerals then if Russia attacked the USA would have even more incentive to intervene militarily. That said, I don’t know what more Ukraine would want given th

If that’s the case that “NATO as has existed is already over” then maybe it is wise for the USA to pull out. Maybe that’s the endgame for Europe? Europe defends Europe (or gets taken over by Russia I guess), and USA isn’t on the hook for it

I genuinely wish there was an understandable endgame for the USA. The USA seems to be throwing its weight around but I’m not entirely sure to what end. This headline/article is just one area where the US is behaving perplexingly. I und

Maybe it’s the shot up plane effect; we only see the winners but rarely see the failures. Leads us to wrong or incorrect conclusions. Finding the right prompt to have current generation AI create the magic depicted in twitter posts may be a

I love self hosting useful apps. I wish finding more things was easier. Right now I self host a jellyfin server and home assistant. When I learned a subscription for home security was $75/mo I said “there has to be something out there”

At my work senior leads and architects always shoot down being able to develop locally, especially when devs bring up wanting the capability. The critique is some variation of “it would be impossible to run all services locally” or “it woul

I am tired and hungry… The thing I’m tired of is elites stealing everything under the sun to feed these models. So funny that copyright is important when it protects elites but not when a billion thefts are committed by LLM folks. Poor ince

In my experience it's usually 35-40 hours "butt in seat" time but 1 mins - 5 hours of work actually happen. The rest of the time is dopamine switching between news, personal communications, and other forms of non-work enterta

Kinda impressive to think about what degree of ending ZIRP programming can be observed in real world data. I’m sure I personally overestimate the degree of causality but I bet others underestimate, so it all balances out. If I’m right all i

I think VR is missing its killer app generally so useful that it makes the experience worth it. I think the tech is so new that we’re all collectively barely scratching the surface on what the medium could be. I’ve had thoughts drawing from

I’d recommend setting up the laptop to accept RDP connections so you don’t have the added friction of physically opening a laptop nor the burden of having the laptop occupy space somewhere within reach when you are required to do the window

Whenever I think of Entity Component Systems I think it as the furtherance of basing your game systems around singletons. I prefer testing and so typically avoid singletons, but I do acknowledge the pros of thinking of games as a series of

I kinda wonder if it’s a derisking maneuver. If the AI runs on the client hardware you gain certain characteristics: the compute happens on the client hardware (saving apple $$) and if a bad actor succeeds at jail breaking from the AI contr

Oh cool so this is kinda how one might debug why a program isn’t running on arm. I have a Unity Linux build that I can’t get running inside a container. Unity mono is trying to make a system call that isn’t available, even after passing in

Game Dev in the 90s into the 00s seems absolutely wild.
