is anyone using Paperclip in production? I'm really interested in what they offer: a whole company run by AI agents, making you the board of directors. I'm testing it and it kinda works, but the question is: are you relying on it in production? having a good experience? Thanks

My reply to someone considering starting a video game company: The distribution of possible rewards for starting a video game company are generally not very good today. The market is well served, and gaining a foothold requires strong execution on both business and product issues, along with a substantial amount of luck. Plan to burn through seven figures with a not-great chance of making it back. If you do go for it, some bits of advice: Identify your customers clearly before you start. Not just a broad community, but specific people, and imagine them as you make decisions. Initially, build the smallest, most concise game you can imagine anyone paying for. It will still take much longer than you expect. Once something exists, hill-climb the value. Hopefully you will have some elements that clearly bring joy to people, which you can magnify. There will inevitably be tons of things that people find confusing, frustrating, or just boring that you will need to fix.

One thing game devs should learn is ABS: Always Be Shipping. I learned that working with @notch As Mojang grew and new coders joined the team, there were complaints about old code/shortcuts/“bad” technical decisions. My response was usually: without those decisions, none of us would be here. There probably wouldn’t even be a Minecraft if everything had been done the “correct” way from the start. Games are explorative. You build, test, cut, rewrite, hack things together, and keep moving. A shipped imperfect system beats a perfect system that never makes it into players’ hands. I’ve never worked on a game where you didn’t have to go back and touch old code/systems later anyway.

Dear Microsoft, when I hit the Windows Start menu key and start typing a word to autocomplete a search, I never, ever, EVER want it to return results of something not on my computer. Ever. Like, ever, ever, never.

Talked to a vibe coder guy on Reddit today about his app. He launched his 9th app this year, but no customers. He says he enjoys building the apps so much because he is using AI and can build so much faster. But when he needs to get users, feel discouraged and does the next best thing, starts another app only to end up in the same place. What should he do ? Keep building until he hits a viral app that markets itself? or just continue with one app for 12 months and spend 9hrs a day marketing it

@Mr_Derivatives You are absolutely right. I don't understand baseball. Not the rules: the concept of being 3 hours watching a match with that much stop time.

I don't really watch much Futbol (aka soccer to us Americans). But the more I watch it, the more I like it. One of the main reasons is that it's continuous action without any breaks or commercial interruptions. Once you realize that, it's hard to unsee the countless commercials and breaks in between NBA, MLB, NFL, etc... Am I right or am I right?!

expansion mechanic done! Once deployed, the BEV (base expansion vehicle) becomes an expansion hub, which allows basic construction and industry. It can be packed up and moved, like the Terran command center in SC. Or it can become an advanced and permanent construction center

After coding 100% agentic for 6 months, my key observation is that software design is more important than ever.

Remember: Game designers in the 80s and 90s were computer science majors who loved literature, classic fantasy and AD&D. There is a very obvious reason the AAA market had been declining for so long. I don't need to spell it out.

The biggest skill to have in future software dev will be taste. Not programming.
