   This is a great resource. Programming has always been a second-class citizen on Twitch and has quite the fabled history. It started with people uniting under specific games when nothing other than gaming was allowed. A "Game Programmin

   Not really a guide. Just a few bullet points. Start messing around in OBS ( https://obsproject.com ) and get as comfortable as you can using it. You can compose scenes, transition between them, set up your audio and video encoding

   I have done it for about 1.5 years straight, 24+ hours a week. Currently on an extended break to recharge my batteries but I'm definitely going back. It's slightly addictive and you come to miss it. The best part is you eventually

   Oh it's here! :) My goal with Serpent.AI is to lower the barriers to entry when it comes to using games as sandboxes for code experiments. It unlocks your entire existing game library (Steam, DRM-Free etc.) to be used as potential game

    This has been my main side-project / hobby for the last few months. I am building a framework to facilitate the creation of agents that can interact with games. You can think of it as a minimal, one-man OpenAI Universe. The main differ

    Really nice and can see why you needed the performance for this project. Funny that you mention Super Hexagon because it's the game I'm using for my POCs!

    Thank you so much for sharing this! I'm working on something similar right now (a framework to build game agents using computer vision tools) and I just went from capturing at 10-15fps with ImageGrabber, to 15-25fps with FFMpeg and fin

    I kept it simple: Reverse order = Number of points i.e. #3 on front page = 28 pts etc. Points are accrued every time a snapshot of the front page is taken. There is a flaw with this system in that outside of peak hours, some less important

    Wow! A clean page like this does make my wall of text look pretty scary... I guess I have a lot of work to do on the UI. I'll try to simplify it as much as possible in the coming days. P.S. Sub'd to Ruby Weekly

    Thanks. I thought the block quote in the first paragraph was in-your-face enough but I'll definitely listen to this advice as I have very little experience trying to convert users. Most sites I build already have a defined audience.

    I'm actually on Dan's newsletter too and though he seems to be doing quite good, I personally find his domains are overpriced for the quality. It feels to me like he is targeting the domainer market with the quality, but at prices that excl
