    So I've shipped a few small games with clojure and unity. GC does come up, but it's very easy to optimize your tight update functions with Unity's profiler. As for finding answers,…

    Strongly agree! One of the reasons I'm excited about IPFS is for content addressable code linking. For example, running single js functions through google's closure compiler to nor…

    Yes the IPFS implementation might change but not the content multihash addressing. Linking to data with those addresses is the generic 'package management' that solves all these pr…

    I believe it was originally displaying extended ASCII in a nCurses console, and switched to bitmaps with SDL. The majority of the world is still visualized by those character codes…

    So Guncho interfaces a mud server to inform7 runtimes? I used inform7's function dispatching as the basis for a python MUD engine, fun stuff - https://github.com/selfsame/mud.tilde…

    Fun to note DF is a massive voxel simulation that displays a 2D slice as ascii. There's some neat third party visualizers that can hook into it's memory to show more. http://i.imgu…

    I just gave up trying to read a newsweek mobile form article because of this (site kept resetting the scrollpoint to the top of page). If I can't read a text article on my $500 poc…

    If you don't see yourself playing this game, consider following the dev blog. It's rare for someone to devote themselves to a lifelong project, and Tarn has been going strong for a…
