I have my own domain and just do <website-name>@mydomain.com and redirect everything to the same inbox sorted in folders. Works pretty well, if any of those addresses gets into some spam list I …

Spain is actually one of the countries with the most solar power generation in the EU It's also the country with the highest solar power potential https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki&…

shouldn't it be the other way round? if the UK doesn't like something a non-UK company is doing it should be them that go through the trouble of blocking it. If I have a website I'm pre…

>> Personally I hope there are tons of layoffs Wow, I guess empathy is not a thing anymore

There's was/is also Pyramiden to the north east, also a mining town but closed down in '98

Honest question. Where can I buy ebooks outside Amazon to use with my jailbroken Kindle? Is there a Bandcamp for books? I want properly created files the kindle can render with the options I want, not…

close enough, but it's in spanish. Form the website: "The name means "little brutal" in Spanish." so the emphasis is on the 'i'

ah for sure, the context will matter but I'd say that if you're generating and destroying 4 billion objects very fast then probably storing pointers to those objects is already a bad idea!

One cool technique is to use the packed bits to check if a raw pointer is still valid. Say you have a pool of objects, when you allocate one you give out a pointer, but in the packed bits you add a &#…

This is tiring but "correlation is not causation". Have you considered there's more differences between Amsterdam and the countryside besides cars?

You're right, but I believe the problem is that populists use arguments and ways of speaking that are deceiving and very hard to counter even if absolutely wrong. This makes a public debate a bad…

they're still made like this. Just now I made a frame counter that just increments every frame on a int64. It would eventually wrap around but doubt anyone will still be around to see it happen :…

Quite a few thousand killed by Israel, or are you claiming that's not true?

The victims are the 60k+ dead people (including children), stop confusing things, you know this. No one here is defending Hamas

Highly recommend Everything instead. It's so freaking fast, can search by keywords, can sort by time change to see what files are being touched in real time, can search any "cloud" file…

ok, but I find this simplification to be what is lazy. Obviously the world isn't as clear cut as only those 3 groups as if they're not intertwined. And what does "directly responsible f…

Probably not that, but it could be something else that also correlates with pollution like living in big cities, or working in a factory, walking more/less, noise levels, lifestyle, etc

Hard disagree. What does privilege have to do with this? Why do you need to work in those conditions because you're poorer? I'm all up for making a huge effort to get out of a shitty situati…

Doing something hard or challenging has nothing to do with working 72hrs a week

No idea why you're getting down voted but that was my thought as well. With immediate mode you don't have to construct any widgets or objects. You just render them via code every frame which…

But you can choose, your parents can have a phone with the "lockdown" setting turned on and I can have it off if I want. How we expose and handle that setting is a UX problem we can solve. W…

>> dedicating yourself to working on your own game can be a detriment to finding an actual job in the industry That's why I say to make small games that already exist. There's no need …

Keep things really small. Small projects you can pull off in a few days and then move on. The kind of scope you'd do for a uni trimester for example. I used a lot of my uni coursework to build sm…

if I may offer some advice as game/engine programmer. If you want to get hired at a company as a programmer, make really really small things, like tiny games. I am talking start with hangman, the…

Great, you can have it. No need to force it on every one else

If I understood correctly, the ejection came after the second touch and go made the plane go into landed mode which made it impossible to fly anymore

>> Claiming that people you've never met are sufficiently financially secure to risk their livelihood for your protest movement is the kind of hubris I hope to never have. I don't unde…

> You think that Google's best and brightest are working on the Google Play store? No idea, whoever they are they're still well compensated and can afford some resistance > What makes …

that's a good point. As a developer, this particular case obviously I understand much better and see the where it leads - the opposite direction of the openess that made PCs and computing so revo…

Yeah, I guess so. That must lead to a lot of cognitive dissonance as I am sure these are not "evil" people, they just find a way to rationalise it away.
