Yeah and now the current bozos own private islands with no jurisdiction so they fly people there to do the experiments.

And anxious I suppose. Journalism should be synonymous with “people” and healthy society. AI and journalism is going to yield one giant ball of misinformation. I would love to say “we need more printed papers” like the good ‘ol days, but pe

Honestly it’s way more satisfying to work analog. Experiencing the colors in “real life” spatially. Also, collaborating with others and being able to share the process in a studio rather than on a screen is an amazing experience. Another th

Yeah you’re right. I guess folks who want C++ stuff should just use C++… I guess I should have reworded. I don’t expect that feature in C, but if I were to reinvent C today I would keep it the same but add namespace and mangling. Adding an

Agreed 100%. C is what it is and that’s a good thing. However, if I were to request a feature to the core language it would be: NAMESPACES. This would clean up the code significantly without introducing confusing code paradigms.

Curious if they could simply piggyback on the Signal source code. Lots of folks try to reinvent the wheel these days. Just like protocol buffers reinvented ASN.1 + PER and so-forth. Even the crypto folks at protocol labs opted for the forme

Honestly it just boils down to one overhyped method of web design: MOBILE FIRST. Mobile-first designs create gargantuan gaps of information sparseness on any larger form-factor. Folks should go back and re-read ethan marcotte‘a Responsive W

I should have clarified but I mean with respect to financial loss, not culpability. Every dollar is a unit of work, and people are saying, “meh, you guys do the work and pay me something.” They abdicate responsibility out of laziness. Gone

People letting some other entity control their dollars with an expectation to grow by itself is flawed. These people are handing their money over so the corporations use it to their advantage by introducing these toxic products to begin wit

This is the same for any creative process. Any painter could describe how they’re reasoning about a composition and what-not. But ultimately each individual needs to digest technique and make it their own. Writeups like this are great thoug

Yeah it’s pretty bad nowadays. Thinking about this though it’s really the big tech companies manufacturing “the latest thing” to be tossed in the bin after a year. Dollars over longevity. Then they become “no longer maintained.” Could we ST

Sure and that’s a reality today. That process will still happen. We’re talking about AI’s doing that for us don’t forget. And those mechanics will still be driven by prompts and such, but the nitty gritty will be automated.

I mean ideal as in the physics notion of an ideal spring, simplified from all of natures forces so it may be modeled in a useful way. In the same way, an “ideal” game is one separated from its inner workings, and what you’re left with is th

If you think about what is fundamentally required for a game, in an ideal world, you don’t have any programmers at all—just artists and game designers.
