If you like his work, you can donate to “The Niblet Memorial Kibble Fund”. I did after reading Blindsight, and received a friendly thank you email from him afterwards because so fe…

It’s dynamically balancing so wheel size doesn’t really matter as long as the wheels are responsive enough. Segways have big wheels to deal with bumps, this has smooth concrete flo…

Do you have API access (platform.claude.com) rather than Claude code (claude.ai)? I had similar issues trying to get Claude CLI working via the second method, not knowing there’s a…

Not the same commenter, but I’d guess: enabling some features for bindless textures and also vk 1.3 dynamic rendering to skip renderpass and framebuffer juggling

DuChinese does have an integration with HackChinese, which is basically a Mandarin only paid version of Anki with a sleek interface. I use it for convenience because I find managin…

I prefer the first example, to be honest. Much of the time your API is more or less a wrapper around the DB, so why introduce more indirection? I don’t really buy the testing argum…

Anyone who believes Hancock’s ideas should really watch the debate with Flint Dibble[0], in which Hancock eventually admits he has no evidence of his ancient civilisation, and Roga…

Absolutely agree with the comments on ECS and Bevy in particular. I tried getting to grips with it for some time, doing things the Bevy way, and it just felt like a big step backwa…

Redlining is nothing to do with acceleration. The article has the right definition: Redlining: drive with (a car engine) at or above its rated maximum rpm.

The pink car is in the wrong lane if it wants to stay on the roundabout for a later exit. The pink car can take either the first or second exits here. The orange can take the secon…

For anyone wishing to get a taste of very modern graphics programming with Vulkan, I enjoyed Arseny Kapoulkine’s YouTube series [0]. Although he focuses somewhat on mesh shading, h…

Hadn’t heard of shifted pointers before, thanks. There is an open PR to Ghidra which adds them, they seem very useful. I’ve run into many places which would benefit from them.

And then when management decides they don't want this feature anymore, you're stuck with it.

LGTM on iOS/Safari after clearing cache. Also on Firefox/Linux.

You want break-word, not break-all. The latter breaks short words unnecessarily.

Indeed, it's unnecessarily derogatory, especially considering Apple's history of questionable design choices to pursue thinness.

That’s another reason I looked into scripting: fear of losing many hours of work through corruption. My last workflow meant writing scripts to define everything so I _always_ start…

I recently started analysing a game with Ghidra. I found the plugin mentioned was actually fairly useless in my case (but this was version 9, maybe things have changed), instead I …

My politics aren't aligned with Trump, but I find this utterly disturbing, and I'm amazed people seem to be celebrating this move (at least on Twitter). Facebook (and other massive…

It can, but it can get incredibly slow for large formats. I was using it to reverse engineer some binary game formats but the parser would take a couple of minutes to complete. I r…

Richard Burns Rally is often touted as the closest to reality. I know Nikolai Gryazin (WRC2) plays fairly often - he actually used it to practice the Czech stage Semetin before goi…
