3rd article in 2 weeks, top 5 on Hacker News. Crazy. I thought nobody was going to read my blogs.

I learned Unity the wrong way #HackerNews darkounity.com/blog/how-i-lea…

It is hacker news article after all, it's just not my post, but somebody else :) I don't mind it as long as people read it.

My article exploded somewhere, and I cannot figure out where. Previously, it was always Hacker News, but not this time. Not LinkedIn, not Reddit, not Hacker News. darkounity.com/blog/how-i-lea…

Next generation of Unity devs are not even gonna know that we had to manually drag refrences to [SerializeField]

@martinmelo_dev Seems to be worse than today

@darko_unity It is

claude down for anyone else?

@ThePrimeagen Hey claude is down, waiting on your roast :D

mythos, opus is down, fix immediately, no mistakes, ultrathink ultraplan

@claudeai down for anyone else?

Here is the perspective that changed everything for me recently. The end goal was never the code. It was always the game. We wanted to make games. Code was just the thing standing in the way. AI finally lets us close that gap.

We can build games, finish them, ship them. That is what we always wanted. Not a replacement for creativity, but a faster path to the thing we actually cared about. Stop asking whether AI is a threat and start asking what you want to build.

Sonnet vs GPT 5.4, one prompt world generation with @Unity. Which one did better in your opinion guys?

I am cooking a new project, and I am spending tokens to a point where I am worried I will be questioned by Congress.

C# in Unity 2026: Features Most Developers Still Don't Use #HackerNews darkounity.com/blog/c-in-unit…

@ThePrimeagen I am enjoying my anthropic subscription where I exhaust it in a single prompt.

The downfall of Nvidia begins? Long live dedicated silicon

The Unity engine has evolved a lot in modern days, but I noticed a trend where Unity developers are still using "outdated" techniques when writing their C# code. darkounity.com/blog/c-in-unit…

If you implement this way of thinking when learning programming, you will become excellent at logical thinking. For a topic to make sense, try to search what programmers had to do before it was introduced into C#. Just that information alone is going to expose the topical meanin

When I am learning something, I try to understand the history and intent behind it. Because some dude somewhere sat down at his computer, and he concluded that the feature makes sense. It solved the problem he had successfully.

Before we can understand some C# features, we have to understand why somebody decided to implement it in C#. My biggest problem with Unity Tutorials is that they will shove something at you just because. #unity #csharp #programming #gamedev

So, as a Unity teacher, I always make sure I understand the problem that he had so that it solved it for him. And then when I am explaining to my students, it makes sense to them as well.
