Disclaimer : I work at Square Enix/Eidos Montreal so this is shameless self-promotion. The three games in the Tomb Raider reboot trilogy can currently be had for very little money on Steam since they're on sale for the…
Use the OBS virtual camera to send whatever image you want over.
I embarrassed myself recently by trying to get the performance of my AMD Zen 3 CPU beyond what precision boost overdrive and the default XMP profile of my memory were able to achieve. The single threaded performance…
It might not be entirely relevant to your situation since this happened at the start of my career but I somehow ended up going from Ruby on Rails development to working on C++ networking code in the games industry. The…
The CSAM scanning is still troubling because it implies your own device is running software against your own self-interest. If Apple wanted to get out of legal trouble by not hosting illegal content but still make sure…
I think Apple is clearly overplaying the role that their app store policies like the "nutrition label", reviews and app tracking transparency have in the iOS security model. To me, the security features that matter are…
What bothers me the most about FLOC is that there is no reason or advantage for me as a user to run it unless I'm forced to. Cookies, even if they get hijacked for tracking, are genuinely useful to persist state and…
They talk about respecting their users but I just had to use their legacy site to be able to read this without getting an annoying modal blocking me and asking me to download their mobile app. Very hard to take this…
I’ve managed to get my hands on a 5800x but I think it’s simply because it’s by far the worst value proposition in the new lineup and demand is probably not as high.

I work on console game web services and my guess is that it almost definitely has something to do with the CA certs that expired this weekend.
I’m currently doing a bit of Gameboy Advance programming for fun and I’m actually surprised by how simple most of it is at least for the basics. While some games on the platform do incredibly clever stuff (Super Monkey…
The average build for a AAA game coming out in 2020 is barely in playable shape and certainly not ready to be shown at E3. Making one polished enough to show off is both time consuming and not representative of the…
If I understand this correctly none of these 4 products will allow you to send text based messages to another person on a desktop computer without having to create an entreprise hangout. Is that not a use case worth…
If you specifically want to do something like this you can use RenderDoc (https://renderdoc.org/) and simply run a game through it. You should get a result that's pretty similar. The deferred shading technique used in…
Awareness of the layout and size of data is still very common in game development. Mike Acton did a great talk related to this at CppCon a few years ago : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX0ItVEVjHc
