Bit of a slap in the face to have to pay for an apple dev account when they already have a monopoly on the app store... 😔

I'm beginning to suspect that a key skill in working effectively with coding agents is developing an intuition for when you don't need to closely review every line of code they produce. This feels deeply uncomfortable!

Any time I start reading a new game development book, the words pop into my head using the voice of Goofy's narrator...

EA being privately sold to saudi arabia for 52 billion dollars was not something I expected to read today

My thesis for lostness vs fun in #gamedev. Silksong and Animal Well spend most of their time in "where tf am I (good)", but it's a very risky game. Rain World was great, but it did nudge me into "where tf am I (bad)" a little too often for my taste.

Tried drawing PixelArt for practice. Feedback appreciated!
Made in the limited palette/low-res style of pico8 and beep8.

Doom debugging, its like doom scrolling but you just keep trying one thing after another to fix a bug and at some point you should really stop but you can't 😭

Being a high school teacher at St. Apa looks hard. Especially when others are visiting.

Chapter 3, part 3 is halfway done! Many new features are coming to exploration mode. #visualnovel #indiedev #indiegamedev #gameboy #indiegame

I fear all we are witnessing is both a technology & political Singularity.

It's not even religion behind it. It's fuedalism. A system of oligarchy using religious superstition to hold power

Tell me any of this is wrong

The Real Reason Most Indie Games Flop (It Has Nothing To Do With Gameplay)

Despite a boom in high-quality game development, most titles go unnoticed due to oversaturated platforms and outdated launch strategies. This article draws parallels with film and music to highlight how d…

Vitor Pamplona vitorpamplona.com This idea that Nostr is "immutable and verifiable", as in being a single source of truth, is the biggest lie in Nostr. So many people misunderstand it. Yes, you can verify **individual events** by their signature... **if you have them**. That's a big if. Authors can delete these events at any time, and once they do, your client will also delete them from your local database. They can ship new versions of replaceable events, and that will make things disappear in your local DB too. If your Client was not active, it would have never seen some of the changes in the first place. Once that happens, you can't "verify" anything anymore. Nostr, as a database of events, is only "immutable and verifiable" if you have a special relay that can track and store all regular and replaceable events as they happen and reject all types of deletions at all times. There is no way around it. And that relay is a **trusted** entity, since there is no way to verify if that relay hasn't deleted anything it doesn't like. Events have never been "immutable". Events by themselves are only verifiable if you have them. A chain of events is not verifiable unless you secure the storage of the entire chain by yourself in real-time. Nostr doesn't do that for you automatically. Nostr is not a blockchain. Stop thinking it is one. It was specifically designed to NOT be one. It's not a problem to be solved.

Nostr is not "immutable and verifiable"

The lack of true, trustless verifiability is why I think Bluesky's approach with the PDS model is more robust.

Somebody pushed up hundreds of lines of Tailwind CSS into our codebase. We don't have Tailwind in our codebase. I love working on large teams on the age of LLMs

AI helped with alot of the busy work and now my job is sitting around thinking about hard problems... AI made my job harder! 😠

Can AI hurry up and take my job already? 🙄

Work sucks 😭

Sure but it would require discipline

Learning a new programming language with AI editors is hard, the autocomplete prevents you from getting in the reps you need 🤔 This might be a problem for younger devs.

Remember the deepseek AI panic? 🤣

AI is revolutionizing work in [undefined space]!

Adding multiplayer in Unreal:
Step 1: enable replication
Step 2: regret every line of code you've ever written

Sure. Stackoverflow has done their survey several years running.

The SWE profession is fragmenting. Developers are coming out of training in one of these clusters.

And the clusters have a fairly distinct set of languages and stacks.
