It’s a coordination problem; your child is greatly disadvantaged in many ways by being the only one without a phone. So it needs everyone to fix the problem simultaneously; this isn’t really practical without a gov’t intervention.

I don’t believe in IP, I’m happy to see it eroded.

They only have 1k dislikes? They have 120k reviews.

Disco Elysium is 6 years old. Uh I think the opinion of police was pretty similar. I remember seeing ACAB quite frequently then.

I feel terrible for the people who were promised refugee status and now are thrown to the wayside. Why does this have to be retroactive? Is it really so important to ditch the last 6 months’ refugees?

reminder that palestinians are also semitic peoples.

No I prefer gmt-7 to gmt-8. I just think year-round gmt-7 should be called “mountain time.”

Promote fair digital trade by prohibiting unjustified data localisation requirements and forced transfers of software source code,

You need to have a comparison against the wider population when you show stats like this. Maybe that’s more than usual? When you say “22% of developers are women,” it’s clear that there are fewer women than the population in general. But we don’t need 50% of game developers being trans. (I mean, that might be fun to see but…)

i keep doing this but then at some point they all disappear

Sure, but if you end up policing only those in arm’s length you will have the opposite effect on the world of what you want.

Why should godot not offer native linux support? Doesn’t it already? And improving perf on steam deck seems like a win to me.

Whether or not I use Claude is not going to change society, this requires changes at a deeper level, and we all know that nothing is going to improve with the current US administration.

I mean yeah, that’s true. Why waste energy harassing developers of libre software for using AI? That’s not going to have any impact on big tech.

Sorry – I was answering the question “why should GDC return to the US,” not “why should developers return to GDC.”

Incredibly valuable piece.

probably due to the large multi-building venue that they have to host the conference and the experience the staff have hosting it there.
