reverse/compliment to this to start working for me is just aiming to work for 1-2 minutes when it feels hard to get started. i usually end up getting immersed, and find it hard to stop.

That’s good. But you shouldn’t mistake a “cursory” understanding where you can talk the talk to be equivalent to actual in-depth knowledge of the problem/solution. There are depths of understanding that can only be gained by executing

I’m on the biggest max plan. It is riddled with annoying bugs for me, only been using it for a little over a month. Settings screen flashes randomly. But most annoyingly: sometimes when forking chats or sometimes for no reason, the UI just

That was very nice to read. Refreshing to see a deep take that’s optimistic.

I had a similar experience. For complex maths in my 3d engine around IK, made more progress in those 3 days than I would’ve done in weeks. I recently discovered though that ChatGPT 5.5 Pro is almost as smart but only available to me via the

Agreed. I really don’t think this is worth arguing that AI can be a huge help. I was skeptical until April even after hearing many friends tell me how good Opus 4.5 was last year. Not working on the “next big” thing but I only recently star

Woah, thank you! Just checking these will keep on working on the lock screen and as screen savers too?

Codex lags when chats become too long. Barely takes a day before loading certain chats freezes the UI and causes all sorts of issues

I’m in the same boat. Been learning 3d game dev past few years seriously after dabbling for half a decade. I even released my first few tiny 3d games in the last 6 months and they’ve made hundreds of dollars! That alone was a dream come tru

this mirrors my experience too. I’ll just add that some times taking a complete break from work is necessary to find the mental clarity to reach the state where learning, stability and happiness are possible.

This. As much as I love listening to JB, graphics wise he’s not doing anything ground breaking, it could even be done on the web. But I understand for him the architecture for his games being perfect is what makes it worth it for him.

This sort of thing keeps me skeptical of AI quite a bit. ChatGPT also has non sensical errors messages for random failures, Gemini too. These companies have infinite compute and yet they haven't been able to implement reliable/gra

Can you tell me about how you use AI for baking and texture refinement? I’m a beginner making small 3d webxr experiences, so tooling is a bit scarce outside of blender. Recently started making my own models and doing stuff like ao mapping a

It’s a well known fact that some types of astigmatism (the kind I have too) causes light text on dark bg to look blurry i.e. the text to be somewhat doubled. I got a pair of glasses made that only fix my astigmatism to use with computers.

In 2014, when I was 18-19, I was one of the “nothing to hide” crowd. But over the years seeing privacy erode has become concerning. Th second last paragraph hits home. > When we say we have "nothing to hide," we're not rea

Why not do both (or all 3 including music) at the same time while giving yourself 2-3 years to start slowly ramp up your focus on the game dev or music side as you keep on learning while reducing your involvement with the management work? I

That sounds very interesting. Would you happen to link to that? I tried searching for it but didn't turn up anything.

Thought so. But even so, I'd love to get advice from you regarding the points I raised above.

Nice thanks (I previously opened it in Safari and assumed it was broken). SDF would definitely be tricky, but like I want to ideally render text in 3d space without having a mesh in between. I do realise optimising an approach like that wou

There is code if you go to packages/webxr. I only have code for the browser (functional but needs perf improvments) and terminal (should be done in a few weeks). Oh dude, thank you, I was aware of your project 6ish months ago (there&#x

I've been working on this on and off for a few months but never tried to explain it in words. Would appreciate any feedback/critique.

A while ago, I used this library called ts-interface-builder to generate runtime validation functions from TS types. It worked really well, I was able to use the types from my front-end without any modifications for back-end validation. Als

Woah, I had similar thoughts while reading this. But I believe this reduces the hard bound line that people believe exists between extroverts and introverts. May be some people are naturally hard wired but what if it is just a state of mind
