I’m not sure I understand you here. My thinking is that every key on a keyboard is in use, ruling out picking even one key, much less three, and same goes for chords. Capslock is a very low value key so hijacking it…
I used to spend money on Bloomberg’s news magazine (newspaper), but stopped because it’s a distant second to the Economist.
Supposedly we naturally gravitate to a 26–hour cycle (experiments done with people living underground and with no clocks)
One of my coworkers on Battle.net at Blizzard previously was at Bullfrog when Demis was there, and had only good things to say about him.
Wow, I loved DeBabelizer Pro. Got a lot of use out of it when porting games.
Once I saw “James Comer” I knew I could ignore this.
Chuck Norris dominated WoW Barrens chat back in the day. It was kind of weird and amazing at the same time.
I have to imagine the poster was referring to Dora the Explorer, a popular and charming cartoon from the start of this century.
Every time I look at one of their demos, I want to cry and say "I want this to be real". And then years pass, and there's another demo, and I'm re-reminded. This is more than vaporware, to be sure. But it's still…
Small nit, but my understanding is that Herzog Zwei was the first RTS, although I agree that Dune II popularized the genre.
The novelist might very well have 12,000 books (I have about 7,500), but the double sided bookshelf in the picture would need to be between 50 to 100 feet long in order to hold that many books.
I must have heard this story and forgot it, because I used this argument on my team when I ran the group at Blizzard that did installing and downloading and patching. “We have 10 million people downloading and…
It was mostly on purpose, that Blizzard games worked well in Wine. We even fixed a few things in our code from time to time that accidentally made Wine emulation hard.
I’d love to hire people that can work 900 hours in a single month. Just tell me where to find them. Or, wait, maybe they work in higher dimensions. Drat.
It’s not binary files per se, it’s size. Checkout sizes are in the 50 GB and up range. Also, unmergeable files are common, so there’s a strong desire for exclusive checkout. This is why game teams either split source…
Epic’s Unreal Perforce repo is >1.5 million at this point.
Wouldn't the word "passthrough" be the right word for this feature?
To put this into context, this is enough to build dozens of Death Stars.
Starcraft II uses floats, but for the game simulation portion it uses an internal software floating-point library to ensure consistency.
Per US Department of Agriculture Economic Research Service. 2.2 billion acres of land in the US. 900 million of that is marked as "farmland". 400 million of that is marked as "cropland", and 300 million of that is…
Not to mention Setext, 1991.
I've been aware of Marpa since about 2010. Every once in a while I read whatever Kegler has written, and I come away from it each time unconvinced that I should put in the effort to use it (which, for the most part,…
There is a certain irony in the source code for a package manager expecting the key package needed to build that package manager to have been installed by some other package manager.
I went through my recent-books shelves and found a few shorter books that are well worth reading. Short books for developers are rare these days. Algorithms Unlocked, Thomas Cormen, 212 pages The Art of Readable Code,…
Check your decimal point, you might want to add some zeroes.
