For codebase reliability & stability, dependencies should (a) be minimized and (b) always included directly in one’s codebase (either binaries or source) and manually updated


Today’s #ChatGPT use: getting a spoiler-free plot summary right up to game mission I’m about to start, worked flawlessly! Perfect for players who play in bursts over longer periods, this would be an awesome platform feature imo….


Was a pleasure to officially unveil this last week, and great to see all the amazing work the students are already doing with the kit! It’s come on a bit since my day 😉 shu.ac.uk/news/all-artic…

Hi SDF friends, here's a full rewrite about smooth-minimums (soft blends/unions), where I introduce Normalization, Kernels, a circular smooth-min and an analysis of several blend functions. Hope you enjoy it! iquilezles.org/articles/smin/ (new stuff starts about 1/3 into the article)

So finished my trial on GitHub CoPilot. My verdict: It's pretty much the same as having a noob coder sitting next to you, constantly interrupting your flow and wasting your time with review request for code suggestions that are 90% garbage.

I'm tired of seeing lazy "software performance doesn't matter" excuses on forums and social media, so I devoted an entire video to the mountains of evidence debunking that ridiculous idea: computerenhance.com/p/performance-…

Lol, my fellow brits using Windows 11 with en-GB in the Insider Program might have noticed that MS has mistranslated ZIP files as "postcode" files in the latest builds.

Loving this UE delegate info + syntax generator tool benui.ca/unreal/delegat… although I had to change "RETVAL" to "RetVal" in order to make it compile, is this a bug @_benui ?

The best feature in Rust is that everything is const by default. Programmers are lazy. The default should be const. If you notice that your need mutable data then you think whether that's a good idea and if yes, then you you add the "mut" keyword.
