Aside from the more contemporary setting, The Sims is a bit more *personal.* That includes more detailed modeling, but Paralives and inZoi both make the mistake of focusing on build and character creation, when the most loved Sims game is Sims 2
English
The life sim genre definitely needs a dethroning, and inZoi and Paralives ain’t it. But every time I try to consider what a stripped down well thought out core gameplay loop would look like for it, I basically think of Rimworld. What’s the differentiating factor?

“Yeah, let’s announce a random collab while our 12-year-old game is still breaking after TWO consecutive updates, with the first introducing an in-game microtransactions even though we already have 115 DLCs. That’d be a swell idea”

The last actually good citybuilder game is older than this website

@jjoelglanton139 @cairoasmith That’s exactly what the military victory screen felt like

@cairoasmith I noticed a tonal shift in Civ 6. Contempt for man and his achievements. It was sickening
English
The tech research quotes in Civ used to at least mostly celebrate the technology. In Civ VII you could research hammers and the quote would be like, "The hammer, another thing to drop on your toe — bell hooks."

They might’ve fared better if they had instead of letting us pick apart the discrepancy in stills

We can’t really tell how much it would affect art direction since we haven’t really seen it in action for more than half a second

'If that was shown as a next-gen hardware reveal and not AI you guys would be going nuts': Epic Games lead producer says the idea DLSS 5 looks bad or detracts from art direction is 'absolutely insane' pcgamer.com/software/ai/ep…

What I’m wondering is why are they showing it only after the parts with lots of motion

Agentic coding doesn’t seem to produce anything good because once you’re ready to show off something good you don’t want to admit you did it with agents

@corsaren Pre-medication I used to be a dominant participant in the daily pre-standup chit chat, to the point where I felt borderline obnoxious. Now I don’t feel compelled to participate at all and I’m thinking “can we get to what we’re here for” …which also feels borderline obnoxious

Should probably get a shingles vax now but they say it hurts a lot lol
English
I love getting a mini shingles outbreak every time I’m sick. I love that I’m probably over the other thing now but still gotta get over the shingles. It’s so cool I had chicken pox when I was younger
English
Lowkey we should make that one thing a goto system design interview

Just watched the BlackBerry movie and what if we made Linux but for phones

That’s what droid was supposed to be, yes. But what if it were written in rust

One funny thing about coding with the bot is that even if you never run your tests (often it can’t automatically figure out how) that they’re there for it to read still increases code quality

What’s the software standard for supply chain logistics these days

@samswoora Only if we can keep the monopoly on money (we can’t)

The autists who make it will be the ones who learn to recognize this for the predatory statement that it is

@tautologer Symbolic language is our top level of evolved comprehensible complexity. You’d think we could do something with sound/speech but then you’d lose the nonlinearity. Genuinely don’t think there is. Picking your symbols well goes a long way though
English
it's kinda crazy that when i'm writing code i'm using a visual system that's evolved to find food and evade predators to parse a rich visual field into, like, a handful of bits of information. there's got to be a better way

Switched back to opus and it’s cooking again. But only because I told it to

I’m back on the magic of XML tuning files

Corollary of a corollary: how do I get the bot to stop dumping everything into a single file because after awhile it burns context reading it

Having another one of those moments after a “holy shit bot so good don’t even look at the code” moment where I realize the code does in fact benefit from my expertise
