It’s been nearly a day since my digital audition and I’ve got not response from Taika or his “people”. Frankly, I’m disappointed.

Idk why devs are so ready to give away all their intellectual ownership to platforms that will one day screw them over. Yes, graft is graft, but also it’s your freedom and independence.

When you show someone some amazing new tech you’re working on, and they assume you’ve faked it, that’s projection right?

I’m also in the market for a Morrissey themed dart board, piñata, or wicker-man if anyone knows where I can get those.
Tempted to buy one of these “The Smiths” mugs, just so I can smash it.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be a c++ coder at 50 - I’ve just been staring at a compiler error for 10 minutes and now just realized I misspelled “constexpr”. #cpp

“And lo, The Oracle demanded $2.50 from each Israelite for worshipping their golden calf. In return, Moses looked to the Sun, and the Sun and bestowed upon him a GPL version that could be shared with everyone.”
I saw coding book yesterday that described C as “God’s programming language.”
Kinda funny. Kinda true.
Imagine if Moses had returned from mount Sinai to find the Israelites all worshipping Java.

When compiling with “warnings as errors” + supporting both MSVC and Clang, bear in mind that Clang be like “That constexp isn’t used - fail!” while MSVC be like “unused constexp whatever, but hey is that a %d? You crazy? That’s string formatting a size_t!”

This new track by Kim Petras sounds like Army Of Me by Björk right? No one’s picking up on that in the comments and I feel like I’m losing my mind.

My knee hurts all the time. In July I thought “this is going to be a lot worse by October”. The MRI agreed. I was told to ‘get lighter’, so I’ve lost 20kg. My knee still hurts now, but probably a lot less than it could have. Did I do the right thing?

The 12yo has the ant lion pheromones. Carnage.
My 12yo found HL2 in the family collection and started playing it on Friday night. He’s had a few questions, some of which I could answer from memory, while others I could deduce from my experience as a gamedev.
Still a great game after all these years.

So often in AAA we hang ourselves out to dry on quality targets that separate us from indie titles, only for players and press to revel in those indie games without even noticing those exact same limitations. E.g. Every quest transition being very not seamless. IDK if it matters all that much. 🤷♀️
