I selected tilt controls and it doesn’t respond to any motion. The “fullscreen” button doesn’t do anything resulting in a tiny game window. It’s a shame because I love breakout!

It’s not even just consumer mindset. Look into any deep dive into their custom tech, it’s insane the engineering dominance they have. The M series was and still is generations ahead of x86. There is no competition from anyone else. Their Ai

Numega SoftIce! Now thats a name I've not heard in a a long time. I think I had 2 Windows98 machines and a RS232 cable for connecting them.

Why do you think competing companies poach engineers from each other?

If you've never seen Overdrive 2 by Titan (a demo scene group), it's unbelievable what the MegaDrive can do stock. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWVmPtr9O0g I'm reasonably familiar with the hardware, I'

"Why write code in 2026".. Because AI generated code is STILL complete ass. Even Fable, even whatever custom Pi/opencode leet code harness you have, the output is awful, and, if you cannot distinguish the quality of your code

A Sega Dreamcast game engine (with editor and tooling) for a Wipeout inspired racing game. No AI.

I often wonder what would happen if Google just refused to pay, or just kept it stuck in legal purgatory as that would be cheaper than paying the fine.

I asked it for a block of C++ code and it hit 14,189 tok/s. I assume it cached someone else's session?

I feel like this is another “Framework 12 vs Neo” type of deal. I can get a used MacBook Air M1 for £250 which beats the Minibook in every regard and it can run Linux.

How could you possibly know all the most "technical and best engineers?". Wait.. are you a codex instance?

I know someone with a modern Zenbook and it sounds like a jet engine at all times, battery life is awful too.

This is the thing. I do use LLMs (mostly Anthropic). It just does not generate good useable code. I have to review every single change to a higher degree than I would my own code because it likes to slip in hidden nasties. I have to rewrite

This struck me as odd too. 7 months? It wouldn’t take that long to write it in a new language. Another thing I don’t see mentioned is code quality. Vibe-coded code bases are an excellent example of why LLMs aren’t very good at writing code.
