This is huge and I hope they'll manage to deliver working console support. Though real problem is not just code itself, but some backing from larger publishing companies. Basically pipeline of all major publishers is built around Unity and Unreal: porting teams, localization, QA and devops. You can create an amazing game, but just for the reason you are not using two of major game engines you won't be able to find funding and sign publishing deal.

I am on 10+ people team building an indie game using Godot. Unfortunately for our next project we will have to use Unity because we had a hard time finding investment. Several companies loved our game, but refused a deal simply because it's not built on Unity or Unreal. In the end we found a smaller publisher that was interested, but it's likely we could get a better deal if we built it on Unity.

PS: Shameless plug. Our game is here to be released sometimes in 2022:

Which is why every founder should always promise 11% growth. Because most companies only grow at 10% - if they're lucky...
Advertising network websites are websites that connect advertisers and publishers together. Advertisers are people who want to get their product, website etc to be seen by the world. Publishers are people who have a website or business place online, that gets lots of attention, eyeballs, and have many people viewing their website.

C# support is excellent. They received funding from Microsoft to add it, and it’s nearly as full featured as the native GDScript and it’s significantly faster (at least in 3.X).

Can’t really speak to the rest, although I believe occlusion culling is one of the killer features of the 4.0 release.
Some people are of the view that as soon as we started allowing the government to prosecute people for writing code that can be used to potentially infringe others that the concept of open-source code distribution was too risky for certain projects. Other countries have also incorporated their own DMCA nonsense with varying levels of success so 'dont be American' is not a silver bullet either.

However DMCA has yet to be challenged in the U.S Supreme Court so that is unsettled law.
The treasury has your answer: Publish the code all you want. If you run it and don't follow KYC, you will be found guilty of money laundering.
Yes. This is all. Don't do any paperwork or registrations or DBAs until you are actually making money. Worry about paperwork and technicalities later.

Of course, things will be a bit different if your business has to do with something regulated and potentially dangerous like electrical work or cutting hair.
As gross as the x86 was there was something perversely fun about using those segment registers from assembly code.
Personally our team is missing proper performance profiler. We have 2D title with 50+ KLOC codebase and a lot of objects, simulation and time warping. Profiling in Godot is really lacking compared to Unity / Unreal in both UI and features. We really just had to do "disable everything and turn it back 1 by 1" to find out bottlenecks.
I think of this every once in a while. We trust, a lot. Things would be different if we didn’t. I believe laws generally protect us after the fact, not before.
I use a plug-in to hide w3schools from results. MDN is amazing.
> My point is that all this irrational exuberance is very clearly precipitously eroding trust in public health authority & science generally.

Nobody needs vaccines for this. We have actual evidence of doctors who got kickbacks for giving patients addictive drugs they didn't need, of pharmaceutical companies lying about known risks, of scientific papers that are nonsense being published, of the CDC lying to the public because they didn't trust us to act like adults and not stockpile masks. There is a US doctor telling her patients that their illnesses are caused by alien DNA and demon sperm, and she's still allowed to keep her medical license. These are hurting trust in science and public health.

I don't blame people for being skeptical of what's going on, but far too often what people are doing is just putting their trust into whatever backs up what they've already decided must be true. People who thought the vaccines were bad before they had any evidence at all to support that have total faith in every study and doctor they can find which might support their position while insisting that the mountain of evidence that contradicts them is a lie cooked up by a conspiracy.

Everyone should be distrustful of research papers, doctors, and public health agencies right now. They earned that, but that just makes it more important that people do a better job of avoiding their own biases and evaluating the imperfect information we have. For all the problems that exist in science, when the vast majority of scientists are telling us something it's best that we listen. We should be most cautious when listening to people who are telling us what we want to hear.
That's what they think they are saying. What it actually means is "It is my mistake that I admit is mine, you get fucked, I keep my chair and take zero actual consequences for it"

Eh, the RJ-45 jack is thicker than the laptop, I think this is good enough of a solution for now. And I’m someone that would spring for the ethernet adapter. I’d consider getting a framework, but I’d start by buying the low end of everything, and just see how many years I could keep running it, ship of Theseus style. That said, it wouldn’t be my main dev machine…
Twitter is high profile, but there are a million businesses most have never heard of that have a similar lack of information security.

There are not a million businesses under FTC consent decrees because of past security breaches.

(Perhaps an argument could be made that there should be, if that's the only way for there to be consequences.)

If Mudge is telling the truth, Twitter has been lying to regulators and is in violation of the consent decree. That would be a lot more serious than just being shit at infosec. It's the difference between getting arrested for your first DUI, or your eighth.
Like I said, define immunity, I presumed protection from severe disease or death, for which prior infection hold quite well. Mild symptomatic infection is not generally avoidable vaccinated or otherwise.

The capitol police doesn't report to the president. They absolutely would have laid siege to the place at the orders of their boss, Nancy Pelosi.

Also, you should check your sources (or rather, your sources' sources): there's a lot of fake news out about 1/6, a lot of it from "reliable" sources. The second story there is single-sourced from someone who wasn't in Trump's car whose story was disproven by someone who was actually in the car. The same outlets have been repeating the lie that one of the Trumpkins killed a capitol police officer with a fire extinguisher.
> I see no reason for him to lie about any of this

I don't know the guy or his circumstances,but as someone who's been aggrieved by a former employer/manager, I can think of at least one reason he may want to stir up a raucous.

It doesn't sound like he's lying, but nothing he's said sounds particularly egregious - relative to practices at other American tech companies and startups. The worst he could be accused of may be exaggeration or having standards that far exceed common practice.
Really enjoyed this post, I'll need to try to get a tour as well, hopefully within this decade.

If this sort of thing interests you, another interesting tour is the Hanford Site B Reactor tour: https://www.nps.gov/thingstodo/hanford-attend-a-b-reactor-to...

It's one third of the Manhattan Project National Historic Park, a few hours southeast of Seattle, with the other portions in New Mexico and Tennessee. I haven't been able to see the other portions, but walking into the main chamber of the B Reactor and looking up at it was an inspiring experience.
So when I buy an Oled tv, does the store procure it for half the price from the distributor? Sounds like a huge margin. How about from an ecommerce store, which a lot of times have slightly less but close prices to regular stores, can the distributor force them to keep prices up not to upset the other resellers?
Love this Ori!
Another way to look at it is that it's life by hockey sticks. Literally. We have 8 billion people alive today. Which is about 7.5 billion more than before the population hockey stick was a thing.

Not only life, but the good life. 90% of people today live a much better life than lords and kings lived 500 years ago.
>How should someone determine the most "popular" chain in PoS based on the chain history alone? Is it the one with the most 'staked'?

Yes.

>The problem (which PoW doesn't have) is that alternative versions of valid PoS history can be generated at zero or close to zero cost.

This is simply a misunderstanding of how it works. In order for you to propose a version of the chain that has some other history you need network consensus. If you claim something that is not true you get slashed. Thats the whole point. You can go make an entirely disconnected chain if you'd like to do that but you'll be the only one on it unless you can convince someone else to join you in your personal universe where you are a trillionare.
Node heap profiler in chrome is pretty good, often it will show the largest retainers and if your hookes to a live vm (not a snapshot) you can inspect the object and eventually go "oh yeah this array just grows and grows..."
When two pointers point to the same place they alias each other (it's alias as in two names for the same thing, but it's a verb as well as a noun)

Rust's &mut borrow is like a pointer guaranteed to be non-null but also guaranteed to never point to memory that can be accessed by another borrow. Or in other words, &mut can't be aliased by other borrows. If you ever try to alias a &mut borrow, the program won't compile.

C's restrict is kind of similar, but it's far less used than &mut. That's because if you violate aliasing restrictions of restrict, it won't generate a compiler error, but will cause UB!

Anyway in Rust, a &mut has exclusive access to a piece of memory, and the compiler may theoretically make use of this fact in optimizations. However, LLVM isn't yet as good as it could be :( first, I think it doesn't implement yet the real good stuff that GCC has (I found this https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/fyi-ibm-is-working-on-llvm... from 2020 but I don't know the state of it), and worse, what it currently has is very buggy, so sometimes the Rust compiler is forced to disable it :(

As a creator it sucks too. I manage a small patreon page for a Discord bot and every time I edit our page I have to relearn how to use the interface. Every time I want to make a post I forget how to...make a post? How in god's name is it possible to make an interface so bad that one has to remember how to make a post? It's completely unintuitive. This is not something that should be difficult lol. (The part I forget is adding alt text to images, although I think there might be other parts I forget too. I don't post that often, it's a small page for a side project.)

$100 Startup by Chris Guillebeau. Really good at stripping away many of the reasons I had been holding onto to not start something on my own.

The book is agnostic about how you raise capital. It gives you the pros and cons of bootstrapping or raising money, and leaves it to you to decide what's best.

I havent seen that many Godot-powered games, but other than title I myself working on there is very promising game to be published by Raw Fury. I played the demo for several hours and had tons of fun, it called Dome Keeper. It's game with smaller scale, but it astonishingly beautiful and gameplay is addictive as hell. So there are Godot games with high production quality.

That's really quite funny. Tell me again how I should read 'my' original comment - after you've compared my username with the one who made it.

The suggestion that Hofstadter has tripped isn't insulting because GEB is a trippy book. Even if it weren't it wouldn't be insulting, only confusing, unless you think that trippy is a bad quality. Examine that.

GEB is whimsical, fun and mind-bending. If it were written any other way it wouldn't be trippy. There is nothing wrong with that.
I sold a very limited run electronics once. Less than 1,000. Most of this is true. The key is to make something niche enough that you can justify that fat margin. Pre-pandemic, it was quite cheap to produce even proof of concept products in Shenzhen IF you knew where to go for quality. Not anymore. 2016-19 was a special period for hobbyists.
I learned (almost) the hard way how important legacy features are.

For me it was buying a house and realizing that you must be able to wire money.

When the stakes were high, Varo failed me (they promised they could do it, but on the day I needed it they refused) and I had to scramble at my traditional bank to make the payment in time to avoid $20k on penalties.

That kind of demonstrates the importance and value of a good CEO though. A couple dumb decisions by an assembly worker won't kill a company. A few bad decisions by a CEO can.

It is specific to C/C++, for sure -- I started with that.

ccache is going to be as fast as any checksum dependency tracker --- otherwise you're relying on a timestamp, which isn't any better than "bare" Make. We use `*.d` rules from the `-MD` flag to prevent the "deleted header" case.

Considering the brevity of the Makefile (it looks like a "basic" build), performance, and the practical robustness, it's in a pretty great trade-off space.

Medical exemptions are a thing. If you truly can't receive a certain vaccine, you should still be allowed to get whatever job you want. But I'm sorry, if you "don't believe in" vaccines in general, or certain specific vaccines that have - for reasons passing all comprehension - become extremely political, you should not be a healthcare provider.

I believe that separating interface from implementation doesn't really solve the problem, it just shrinks it. E.g. what if you depend on two libraries that re-export classes from different versions of a third library?

I think that if you truly want to solve the problem, you need to extend the definition of the fully qualified classname to include the notion of a breaking version reference. Kind of like what folks now sometimes do the hard way by encoding it into the package name.

This would make it possible to directly address the two different versions from the same calling source file.
Generally yes, but here you're using this ostensibly ephemeral key as an identity. Usually you want your identity to _not_ be ephemeral, so that it can reliably identify you.

Which is why this is a bit silly and I don't see why you'd do this rather than "good old" PGP.
>Personally I wouldn't know what to do with 1000sq ft and up

Well, its easy for me :P

Server rack, 3D printing station/workshop, home gym, kitchen, storage, bathroom, yard equipment (typically a garage, tbf), home theater, deck (does this count?), kids rooms, etc.

That certainly wouldn't fit into 1000sqft.

I mean, I believe its totally possible to live within 1000sqft. You just have to "give up" a lot of things or a lot of potential... but you also gain some. I hate mowing the yard, for example, lol.

Ok, could've been chosen for 1999 reasons back then, but there are good reasons today. It's easier to build things collaboratively, esp across teams, when there's just one repo and one branch (I don't count release branches). Yes it takes effort to support due to its size, but that's contained within a few teams, and everyone else benefits from it.

Other tooling decisions place a burden on every SWE. Their config language is a weird trash that everyone has to sorta learn. Their deployment and integration testing tooling have similar qualities, and it's not cause of the monorepo. One consequence is that many teams cannot feasibly deploy microservices, even though it'd often make sense to, which is even worse if they're using C++.

Even if they did, what would be the point? The appeal of Godot is that it's open source; if you just want a full-featured game engine, with a large, existing ecosystem around it to boot, just use Unity or Unreal.
The one experience I had with peer review before leaving academia was actually pretty nice. One of the reviewers was a bit of a hardass, but they made good points and I think made the paper much better.

As a consumer of papers now, I find peer review pretty useful. I can’t read everything that comes out. Even if I just read abstracts, I need some sort of filter. Publication in a top tier journal raises the probability that egregious errors haven’t been made and that the paper is worthy of my time.

You can heat houses with other methods than gas, like ground or air heat pumps that use electricity. It might be somewhat complicated though.

Since it's not a drop in replacement, driving this change through might take decades and require changing building legislation etc. I'm unfamiliar what is the situation in the different European countries regarding this, but I know there are EU countries where practically nobody heats with gas.

Building a single house or building around a heating solution is a long term commitment. It might not be easy to change afterwards. This then implicitly makes assumptions about the availability and price of said heating solution.

Politics and national security concerns are inevitable around a large scale energy questions. These things don't "just happen" in a "free market". For example large scale electricity producers or gas suppliers are "too big to fail" and are actively managed by governments.
