I ended up grabbing the Affinity bundle since it's half off despite concerns about Canva. I'd expect even if they end up moving to a subscription I'd at least have the versions I bought for an extended amount of time. I still

I'm in a lot of gamedev communities and I'm not seeing any complaints. Everyone agrees this is fine. I believe if they announced this initially people probably would have complained but nothing close to the backlash there was. Mos

This is basically everything policy wise they needed to do to quell the storm. This is honestly what should have just been announced originally. So much reputational damage just to arrive at a reasonable model weeks later. I'm happy fo

We've been calling it "Install Bombing" after the common abusive practice of review bombing. Unity claims they have anti-fraud systems in place and you can always appeal with their fraud team but I don't have an reason t

This video[1] talks a bit about this from a lawyer's point of view and is a really good overview. For people who are not paying as much attention to this I'd like to summarize the main points of frustration. 1. Unity has just show

The terms have been changed so that all future installs can incur a fee even on older games that used unity even if the haven't been updated recently.

To add to this I found these tutorials good starting points for a structured lesson with my kids. Would do about 30m-1h a day (mostly up to whenever they get bored). When we started off we'd focus on letting them run the GUI changes an

I've been doing Godot development with my 9yo and he loves it. If you're looking for something with less emphasis on text based programming Construct and GDevelop are engines I've heard good things about as a continuation fro

This is definitely a known issue that I've personally experienced but is even listed as a warning on the docs[1]. > Godot 4's HTML5 exports currently cannot run on macOS and iOS due to upstream bugs with SharedArrayBuffer and W

Would love to see more disruption in this space. Like others have said it's actually amazing how bad the calendar/scheduling portion of PagerDuty is. Multiple places I've worked we ended up making our own interface to managin

I use CheatEngine and other memory debugging tools as part of reversing/modding single player games for fun. Recently I had a browser tab open to a CheatEngine doc page, not even the executable open, and Fortnite wouldn't let me l

Yea, this was for internal communication, presumably to catch leaks. I've not worked there for 10 years now so I can't speak to whether they're still doing anything like this internally but I wouldn't be surprised.

~10 years ago I discovered Google doing steganography and their e-mails by accident. I was searching gmail for an e-mail message using a word I knew was definitely in the message but it was not being found. Eventually I found the e-mail and

While looking into new engines recently I bailed on Unreal because all the docs and tutorials push towards Blueprint. I'd happily use C++ over Blueprint but everything is pushing Blueprint hard to the point I just moved on. Been lookin

I was reading through some of the posts when the modal takeover happened and my natural instinct to close the page kicked in. I have so little patience for modals these days. If you want some kind of delayed call to action maybe some kind o

I don't have a great suggestion unfortunately but I appreciate your thoughtfulness on the matter. I didn't intend this post to be inflammatory, it honestly feels like I notice Jerry in particular all the time but it seems clear my

I think this might be part of why it sticks out in my mind so much. The name with no information just feels like an ad and nothing about it makes me curious it's just "there's that headline again..." I think it's cl

Oh thanks for pointing out that page, I'd honestly never noticed it. I think because it's behind a `more` tab in HN Enhancement Suite. I'm honestly surprised to see they're there only once a week because I feel like I no

I'm not familiar with the mechanism in which these posts occur. I'd expect if it were automated I'd notice them more often but I feel like I only have memories of Jerry posts and it feels like it's very often. May be con

I've recently started using Notion and I'm surprised at few things that I find incredibly annoying with it so far. Since it seems there are some Notion staff here I'll take this as a change to give some feedback to hopefully

Well, we're currently all remote, heh, but usually prefer on-site in SF. We are open to remote for the right candidate though.

Tokio and Futures have existed since 2016. I worked on the initial loqui implementation that powers rpc at Discord in raw Futures/Tokio in late 2018. async/await was also on nightly back then. Jesse finished it and migrated it to
