Currently learning Vue so i can add it to my resume and it's funny cause deep down it's exactly the same thing as React and only the outer layer abstraction is different.

Ça fait 3 ans qu'on se fait des nœuds au cerveau pour expliquer par mille subtilités la déroute du secteur. La vérité, c'est que les investisseurs sont cons comme des balais. Les gens qui décident de nos destins n'ont juste aucune idée de ce qu'on fabrique.

This looks bad, right? But here is the thing... ITS WORSE

This survey only reached a narrow selection of respondents. Notably cut anybody who has been unemployed for too long. Mostly just ppl who can afford to attend GDC. Many laid off before 2025 are still looking!

It's far from perfect but I'm glad i did it and I'm proud i got to learn a new skill. There's already a V2 that's almost done but I'm struggling finishing the collar...

Today's the last day game designers in the Netherlands can send in an application to work on the Hidden Folks Universe!

hiddenfolks.com/job-opening/...

Some tips based on the applications so far:
- be in NL
- don't be a minor (we had 1 lol)
- don't say HF seemed inspired by a game that cloned ~us~
Job opening: game designer @ Hidden Folks
We're looking for a game designer in the Netherlands to help build games in The Hidden Folks Universe, starting with a sequel to the indie hit game Hidden Folks.

Back when i was a teenage, around 2011, French High school Diploma required every student to do a big presentation on a topic of their choice.

I did mine on AI.

For extra point, and because i was a nerd, i built a chat bot demo.
