Unreal's Niagara has a visual editor. While it is packaged as an VFX/particle editor, it is in many ways an ECS. Each particle can have custom data structure and modules/systems th…

Actually Denmark was considering completely banning selling cigarettes to anyone born after 2010, but seems like this is unlikely to happen due to EU rules: https://www.thelocal.dk…

With the availability of game engines, gameplay programming is actually very high-level. Most of the logic is handling some input or some collision or updating some position or tim…

This is a creative coding library, similar to OpenFrameworks, Processing, etc. The description is confusing. Seems to be an in-house tool some creative agency decided to open-sourc…

I don't think it's that complicated, it's just a matter of having different values. The Chinese culture values prosperity, solidarity, and security over freedom. and those are thin…

Yes! Would definitely recommend the investment if you spend a lot of time typing on the computer ;)

Everyone is different. Nowadays, if I post something, it is either: a) I have something to share, a bit of knowledge/opinion/story. If this is the case, I already know I am correct…

I had one of the first revisions of the Ergodox EZ. There were some problems with the build quality, and a few of the legs arrived loose/broken. Customer service was great though, …

It takes a while to get used to. I switched to Ergodox and Colemak at the same time, and it took me around 3 months to get up to my normal speed again. Unless you type a lot on oth…

> Your approach of delaying the abstraction choice sounds very interesting (somewhat akin to Extreme Programming?), I will try to keep that in mind for the future. In thinking abou…

I don't think OOP itself is bad. Bad abstractions are bad, no matter the language, and that is the main problem. Abstractions and domain models are created based on our understandi…

Tech roles comes in many forms. For example, I have worked a fair bit with graphics programming and VFX, where extensive knowledge of photography would be very useful. I can imagin…

This article is funny because it starts off with an assumption that is the opposite of my initial perspective. Then again, it was also quite a revelation to me when I learned that …

You do have the C API in the form of source code. You just can't distribute your changes as a plug-in.

This is fair. I don't think anyone can claim they have never been disrespectful towards anyone in their life. People are sometimes unbearable and sometimes you are too. Learning to…

I'm also an introvert. I get exhausted when spending a lot of time with other people. One thing I've noticed though is that when I do spend time with people, I prefer getting to kn…

I agree. It's true that it is easier than ever to have instant access to just about anyone in the world, but because it's so easy, we become less interested in actually investing i…

> A bug is never just a mistake. It represents something bigger. An error of thinking that makes you who you are. I like this quote from Mr. Robot. Most of the time a bug is not an…

Maybe I've just been unfortunate/fortunate, but in 6 years as a software developer on all kinds of projects, I've never once worked on a project where even two people share the maj…

But the learned behaviour will be short => likely a shoplifter. Short people who don't shoplift will have to deal with being suspected of shoplifting at a higher rate than the rest…

When I was young, I avoided restaurants because of exactly this! Always preferred cafes/fast-food places where you pay first. It just didn't make logical sense to me. I've grown ou…

Realtime raytracing hooks into an existing multipass pipeline like this by replacing select traditional techniques. The easiest to replace are shadowmaps and AO. You can also make …

It's made for mobile, which is the correct move in this day and age. But yes, should not be difficult to add keyboard controls too.
