Yeah. I write software for a living and I use open source stuff extensively. I contribute sometimes to open source projects, but not everything can be open source or I'll be back to flipping burgers.
Yeah, anything with Ray tracing will have player reflections. You usually don't see them because they're faking ray tracing by baking the light bounces when the scene first loads
I feel like im about to get screamed out of town for this, but it's an honest question in good faith so im gonna ask it... What's the difference between trans chasers and, for instance, a straight dude "chasing" cis women?
It seems like someone being attracted to the combination of your genital configuration and your gender preference/presentation is what you want right?
What do you do?
A competitor could literally buy one copy, make a script that spins up 1000 vms a minute and downloads your game over and over on "new devices" and put you out of business
Yeah aside from the fact that it's going to likely affect their decision. Like I wanna see this guy face justice but not at the expense of my family getting fieebombed inside our house
Honestly as a mid-career IT person, I'd take a 30-40% cut for that extra day without a second of hesitation.
Every desktop app that's available on multiple platforms is basically written in it.
Climate change isn't really an existential threat. To be a filter it has to kill all humans and even the bleakest models don't predict that.
Also for it to be a Great Filter it has to be something that ALL civilizations do to kill themselves. Seems unlikely that all civs wou ld even have analogs to gossil fuels in quantities sufficient to do this kind of damage. And the idea that zero of them actually course-correct when they notice it seems equally implausible
Cringe. Recently learned that "the youths" have basically morphed the phrase into just meaning "anything bad". Like, that word was so useful though to specifically mean "something that someone does which flies in the face of social norms to which they are oblivious, but which makes onlookers uncomfortable". That word condensed a damn paragraph and I want it back
See I'm in software dev and I am constantly getting recruiter calls asking me for in-office work. I'm the guy saying "you literally cannot pay me enough to go back in an office"... but I'd gladly take 2/3 or maybe even 1/2 my current pay for a 4-day, 32 hour work week.
