I mean capitalism goes together with authoritarianism pretty good. Just look at the companies that still exist today that helped the Third Reich. Perhaps it's time to want a different underlying system that wouldn't have a bottoml

You're right. My apologies. It is problematic and didn't think of the repercussions of translating my thoughts like that. I am capable of making mistakes, but don't mistake that for unwilling to do good or willfully being exc

Yes I have. Very weird for you to assume I don't. I don't live in America, however I am constantly reminded of my country's (The Netherlands) colonial past (you know, the spice trading, genocide inducing, slave trading one) a

I mean, that would imply you would prefer a term that is in a way discriminatory to a particular group right? Not in bad faith, but it seems you kind off admitted that there is some evil in doing so, and that you're willing to do it. A

I would suggest looking up what the Dutch did in relation to race equality in history and how we were involved in a lot of slave trade, sometimes even to the US. I would say you have a point with saying it's performative, and I don&#x2

You just have to be realistic and contextual with the conversations you're entering in. In the above comments, I might as well very much seem like a virtue signaling SJW that would rather have a small language win than a hard-problem-s

I don't know, seems like a very weird subjective reality you're trying to push in an objective one. I am one of those people, yet I haven't had any significant problems with my work ethic. Pushing a narrative that these peopl

I don't know, I can't speak for the people who's access is limited. However, I am Dutch and can say that these cultural sensibilities are far outside of just the "American" one. There are plenty of people that strug

Yeah that's true, and I feel you on that. It's just that when conversing with people that do feel like these "SJWs" exist, makes it seem more nuanced, since you're distancing yourself from that stigma even though yo

I dont know, I was taught from a very young age to be nice. And honestly, I kinda of kept it as a close part of my personality to not make anyone feel uncomfortable for any reason. Although I can argue most of these things from a political

There are plenty of people in our society that actually have a negative relationship to these terms that we commonly use in our profession. Psychologically, it can be harder to be part of a group of people or a profession when you have to u

I for one think it's great that people are willing to make things a little more accessible for more people. If people want to be part of our community of developers I think it's great that these organizations listen to people who

I've had a conversation with this person on Twitter as well, and immediately blocked me for not being "good faith" while she casually throws around terms like "dirtbag left" and "those East Block country devs a

I was definitely a _very_ late adopter of the program, but because it was so badly documented and seemingly dead even a few months ago I dropped it as well. I use https://fly.io now for this purpose. It's not self-hosted, b

It works really well actually, in the backend I compile a server version of a game, which exposes Godot's High Level Multiplayer API. On the other end you just need to connect to that server and it works! Most of the heavy lifting and

True, it's mostly a passion project as well. I've worked with Godot so much and thought this was a missing feature for most non-developer hobbyist that want to make games. My plan was maybe to sponsor some game-jams to get more kn

Hey software engineer/gamedev here. I use Godot daily to make games for small businesses, usually around GPS-based games. What I really found is that the editor based approach of Godot actually doesn't get in the way, but is actua
