This picture truly is a masterpiece, and I have the feeling after seeing it everywhere that it has the photographer's credits in a lot more places than I'd expect. Before GenAI, people wouldn't be bothering as much to point out the real human behind it. A good ripple effect?

Premature abstraction is WAY more prevalent and worse than premature optimization and really handcuffs code bases for years and years.

Capy says hop in, we’re riding the bullet train to Kyoto. Capy is well traveled 🚄

*needs to write "length" in code and is non-native english speaker* AH my nemesis we meet again

You can complain about Python and other scripting languages all you want, but there's nothing quite like just sitting down, importing what you need and coding C++ has so much bureaucracy to get anything started, it kills that first spark of wanting to start hacking

Reality is so devalued Everyday I have to see AI bros sharing the most ungodly shit and write multiple paragraphs about how its so amazing and people in the comments eat it up And I look at it and it's just another accidentally Hieronymus Bosch looking nightmare in Pixar skin

@FreyaHolmer I was going to ask if you felt a change irl dealing with people like this, or if it was just a digital thing. But that's the point right? These people would never talk like this in real life. There's just no reason to be rude to a stranger that's obviously smarter than you

I'm *mostly* desensitized to it at this point! I don't mind it that much, but I do like talking about the social dynamics of it all which I think comes across as if I mind it way more than I do, but, yeah, I'm fine c:

the Big Account experience on here is to withstand 100 mean guys in your replies, and if you eventually snap back at one (1) of them, you get another 100 people calling you a big bad meanie, and 50 more saying "just don't mind them :)"

I'm building a customizable random generator in @godotengine, inspired by Seventh Sanctum and other old generator websites. Currently fiddling with a Game Idea generator. No LLMs involved in the generation! Just a good old hand-rolled app.

"The developers do not assume any responsibility for potential misuse by users." Ah. Yes. The programming mantra of our age.

Can't help contrasting this with Dragonbone Chair, which insists on just being the driest tolkien xerox shit 90% of the time even though the prose is pretty good

The Malazan books throws so much wild shit at the wall, it's a sight to see and makes the whole thing so fun even when the writing's not really there

@amu_mhr The "Im" in ImGui stands for immediate improvement in your development life. It's crazy how much of a one way ticket it is for doing GUI easy and optimally. Nice job!

Recently started using ImGui for creating editor widgets. It's so much more easier to use + performance is on a completely different level. #ImGui vs #Slate, for an asset picker slate is >5x slower compared to Imgui widget :( Slate idling at ~8ms on my system :p #UE5

Sky's diorama on Extremely Powerful Capybaras is one of the coolest things I've seen, go support his work, it's amazing!!

Definitely one of the biggest game engineering catastrophes of our time. Feel for the team that would've probably hit a slam dunk of a sequel if not for completely surreal executive-imposed deadlines while tackling new technology polygon.com/gaming/2419434…

Ken Liu on writing for the market in "The Language of the Night"

Funny how some times the games you least expect are the ones that jump you with nostalgia. We didn't know how good we had it with this Prince of Persia

developer realizing that @godotengine is one of the most accessible ways of creating desktop/web apps in our day and age

Why yearn for the drug that Bradley Cooper uses in the Limitless movie when you have Flying Beagle youtube.com/watch?v=HHOn8u…

@AzagayaVj Amazing stuff!!

I started as a game designer and veered into engineering in the last 5 years I feel that, the more I went into code, the harder it was to have crazy high-concept game ideas. Like I'm always shackled by my knowledge of implementation Wonder if this also happens for other gds
