    Impacted non-studio dev here. It's a bloodbath like some of the leaks in the past few weeks have said. Many important platform/infra teams getting gutted, even in areas where there…

    One of my favorite darknet diaries episodes is about corporate whistleblowing, it's a huge business. If you get a massive 1M+ payout, chances are the company is getting just as muc…

    The Steam Deck has essentially enabled money laundering through Steam. Before the Deck, if you sold skins on the marketplace you could only use your Steam credit to buy games on th…

    This is actually pretty cool. We have a similar custom library at Xbox that's used extensively across all of our services. I do wish that there was some kind of self-hostable World…

    This guide is the only reason I passed my school's version of CMU's CS:APP (malloc) Huge shoutout to Beej!

    4080 -> $900/1200, 4090 -> $1600 What the hell Nvidia. Post EVGA breakup, this is a bad look. Seems like they're setting MSRP ridiculously high in order to undercut board partners …
