Source2 is the giant legacy codebase I was referring to.

I don't understand what they got basing off the Source engine. Maybe it made sense when they started 6 years ago - to allow using Hammer and such. But at this point they've made their own editor, networking, scene system... why is

A multiplayer survival game based around voxel physics. Can be described as Astroneer-like setting, Teardown voxel physics, in a Valheim-like online multiplayer survival game. Game isn't really announced yet but I've shown some vi

Been arguing for this for years now https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33415400 The main argument against it seems to be that a browser forces standards - while really the the strength of this approach is that standards w

There is zero chance this is what you meant, but I wrote a short story with that concept in 2013: https://www.3delement.com/?p=309 Did you end up finding what you were referring to? None of the other comments actually match

It's amazing to me how little moderation they do for Ad content. My Instagram ads are constant crypto scams. Maybe there just isn't the same incentives to moderate companies paying to scam your users, as opposed to free users post

Yeah - there really is a opportunity now to rethink browsers as just sandboxed rendering windows using WebAssembly + WebGPU. Could still have typical DOM rendering handled with Webassembly delivered by the web sites (ideally cached). The ch

No - this is the graph: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GO1eps3WgAEzQYa?format=jpg&name=... Immigration is the only thing providing GDP growth. Otherwise the Canadian economy is clearly broken

Blaming 'corporate greed' is a easy thing for politicians to do. It's then not their actions that are causing prices to go up. Easy to point at things like 'record profits' of Loblaws, without looking at if their ma

Git LFS is a giant hack ontop of Git. Most game devs I know moved away from it over time (back to Perforce or SVN). It might seem okay at first - but deep into a project you'll want to rearrange/rename folders and keep history log

As a side note, it's funny to call criticism of the governments overreaching bill 'bootlicking'. If there is one boot you should be afraid of stomping on your face it's the governments

You said you 'didn't know enough about it' to defend it, not that you didn't care, and yet still can say confidently "There is no scenario where C-18 has any relevance to this". There is such clear contradictio

by Vermeulen 3y ago
By saying 'regulatory uncertainty', they are saying the uncertainty of C-18 applying to Bard. Very very clearly. It's a legal risk to them right now. And yet you, who also just said they don't know enough about C-18 to c

by Vermeulen 3y ago
How can you so confidently say C-18 has no relevance to this - then in the same comment say you don't know enough about the law to comment on it? If you don't understand C-18 that's fine - but then you can't confidently

"if they scrape and present their content" - and you don't think this is relevant to Bard? It's less them 'punishing' Canada, and more being uncertain how these insane linking laws will be applied to this new t

Problem with this idea is moderation - Google is not going to moderate a discussion that is happening in the side bar of your site. What is love to see, and tried to make once, is something like this but just shows discussions about a URL f

This is a rule developers are just finding out now from a game getting rejected. Pretty major deal if multi-million dollar budget games like High On Life should now be banned (even worse if they don't ban it now, making the rules uncle

There are already successful Steam games known to have used AI art. And this is only in the cases of the developers publicly admitting that. High On Life used Midjourney for it's ingame posters - https://store.steampowered.c

He is very right you've convey almost nothing in your response. You mock people opposing the shutdown then say you have a more 'nuanced take'. Nothing wrong with clearing long comments that offer no actual value, but are so l

Good to see - when I posted this every comment was about Musk. I guess it just takes time on Hackernews to filter the worthwhile discussions to the top

I really miss when discussions about Musk's companies were about the technology - there is a lot of interesting areas to discuss with Neurolink and how their approaching development. But now comment sections about anything Musk related
