Ah, I've made the same! I made a very flexible turn-based framework - write the game logic on server in javascript, then state+options are given to clients, so platforms (swiftui, web, unity, webxr etc) "just" have to implem

We did this (as a side effect) for the premier league ~2009-2012 (liquidated JUST before VR appeared, where the content worked fantastically, and then ~2014 with the moverio glasses, even better in AR) We did live player tracking (~33 camer

I came up with a poker-wordle-ish game idea, and that was higher/lower. You enter a hand, and it told you if your hand was higher or lower. Maybe a bit basic though, adding a texas holdem flop-river reveal could have made it more inte

I made one specifically for viewing & editing json. Has draggable reordering with rough rules, auto-editable-values, copes with live updates whilst user is using it and other bits and bobs. Maybe along the lines of what youre looking fo

Large blocks of data. (Eg 10,000 floats) Otherwise personally json wins

Have you stepped through protobuf processing code? There's a lot of special cases, ifs, branches here and there. Protobufs within protobufs. Its not like its a size, then 100 floats packed together, theres more overhead than youd think

What is a "founder" these days in this context?. The term seems to not mean someone founding a company, but i guess not a vc? Not an angel, ceo... someone with experience building a business?

I am appalled at the code I wrote when I was 8 years into the proffesion. I would also be wary of any code I wrote after 16 years (though some I do... the very pure no dependency stuff!) In 2 years that'll be 3x8 years and I hope to pa

You do, just learn xcode instead of learning appcode. Get used to instruments, debugger, etc

Yeah, nobody should be using UIbuilder and storyboards any more. swiftui is so much better, faster, usable, extensible. But wow, the hoops you jump through to use it with c++ - via obj-c (And iirc can't use .mm files either). Im sure

It's all about discovery. You like XYZ pizza; how many places did you try before finding them? How did you find XYZ pizza? Thats where these gatekeepers thrive. Its the same as yahoo/altavista/google.

Phones could be fine if 95% of the screen wasn't covered in popups, adverts, mailing list & cookie prompts.

We used to have purchase v1, and a cheaper upgrade to v2... but jetbrains' doesnt let you keep the upgrade if you unsubscribe? Or do you then perpetually own v2 after a year?

Having this page open for ~10 seconds on my iphone SE (I believe recently hailed as the greatest of phones) crashes safari every time. Can someone able to read the page tell me if this article is ironic or not?

Any chance anyone knows how this compares to magic_enum (which iirc is c++17+ only? Though c++17 seems to be supported every platform i work on now) No string -> enum would probably be a non-starter for me though

Events and parties (organising and discovery) were something no platform ever got close to being good at. Facebook completely nailed it, probably purely through the social connections. It's still maybe the number 1 thing everyone i kno

What is your suggestion? Bad actor in the middle?

Oh that would be bliss! Can it remove cookie/newsletter/discount/app promo popups too? :)

My 2013 mbp is being retired for a mac studio as I accidentally updated ios to a version that needs xcode13, which i cannot install. It had a good run! (My 2011 imac died last year)

You gotta use safari dev tools for a chunk of ios quirks, not chrome :) (Though some things like accidental zoom and navigation popup-from-bottom needs a device to test :/
