No. I would rather they keep exploring new worlds and new ideas, keep things continually fresh.

John Carmack is a person who is obsessed with the pursuit of technology for academic fulfillment and practical application. Based on anecdotal stories he will happily spend hours telling anyone who would listen everything he’s learned during a given project and solutions he’s found along the way like a human dev…

Oh, I don’t know.. humans aren’t always so good at that, either. Like this Accord driver who swerved into oncoming traffic to avoid one car, and hit another.

I mean, not really. With perspective it just makes him seem shittier. His “character” is “being a total cunt to others”, but apparently if anyone is a cunt to him, that’s 100% unacceptable. And given he basically never breaks character, it’s fair to say he probably is a total cunt IRL.

A pattern of cheaply made temporary statues.

To be a 20-something in Busan means slowly losing a weekly war of attrition with their patron demon: soju. They are brave, unfortunate souls.

Great article! The South Korean #MeToo movement is fascinating and inspiring, all the way around. It’s been really crazy over there. They’ve only even been a democracy since like 1987 or 1988, so they’re basically entering the modern world at crash landing speeds, which is a lot, I think, of what causes these…

Why would his name even really come up? He’s not playing, right? And their job is to cast about whatever game they happen to be watching, right? Soooooo, why does he need to be mentioned, at all?

I mean, there’s a really obvious reason why. Boosting is viewed extremely negatively in the Korean Overwatch community because boosters and boosted accounts are a plague there that are roughly equivalent to the plague of Sym/Torb one-trick throwers that afflict NA (I’m pretty sure it was Fissure, one of the most…

Because:

.... nah, man.

Sad news, but at least Games Maya is going out on a high note.

Because you’re actually creating NTFS junction points, which is, essentially, like placing blue and orange portals on your filesystems.

“Put simply, the new trade cooldowns ruin the experience of the average CSGO player who wishes to use items.”

That doesn’t make sense. Why would using a Nyko dock render the Switch unable to connect to a Nintendo dock after a Switch firmware update?

I guess I dont understand here. Everything worked fine, nintendo launched a patch and now the switch is broken and you blame the dock? Maybe I read something wrong but this seems like nintendo’s fault at around 110% of the blame.

I would love to see this compared to a professional sports contract. I think NBA players have more freedom than this.

I have been in industry for 18 years now. I always love to congratulate people that make it past year 5, but I know most won’t.
We need protection from horrible bosses just like all industries do. I think we need a union mostly for healthcare and retirement.
My father was in the electrical union until he retired, and…

As I pointed out in the piece, that’s already happening. The only reason that big game companies haven’t outsourced EVERY aspect of game development is because the talent isn’t there. Publishers are already trying to cut costs and maximize profits at every turn; unionizing is not going to change that. Publishers will…
