Moonligther, I saw it in the gamepass and it looked like a chill game. Right now it's super cheap on steam so I decided to buy it.

I started watching succession recently and I can't stop watching these rich assholes

What makes you think that inefficient rust is slower than efficient Python? I mean, sure it could be possible if you are actively trying to make rust slow, but rust is multiple order of magnitude faster than python. If rust was to blame here then I don't think any language could be fast enough.

Isn't it a bit early? I feel like we should have enough traffic to justify splitting the community like that. Although maybe I'm just not used to this whole fediverse/instance thing.

I'm definitely cautiously optimistic for starfield, but I don't want to get my hopes up too high.

In general I'm excited by how many unknown but potentially interesting games that will come to the game pass. There were a couple of games that looked interesting in the xbox showcase but that I probably wouldn't want to pay for, but if they are in the game pass I'll definitely try them.

Personally, what I did to learn rust was work on small simple projects that didn't really need to worry about the borrow checker. Specifically, doing the advent of code puzzles.

That's what got me started with rust in 2019 and now I'm a fulltime professional rust programmer. I'm definitely not a genius though.

 

They changed most loved to most admired, but it used essentially the same question.

At this point I lost count how many years this has been going on.

Considering the current reddit issue, it seems self explanatory why a non centralized solution is better.

The price increase combined with removing filters and all the addons really isn't great. This just feel like another product that will be ruined by greed.

A few years ago, when I was still learning rust. I started to read the raytracing in a weekend series and implement it in rust instead of cpp. I fell in love with both rust and computer graphics in general after that. Today I now work full-time (and as a hobby) as a computer graphics programmer with rust.

In general I just keep working on things I find interesting and never put any pressure on myself to actually ship anything. I do it because I want to not because I have to.

Here's a link to the book series https://raytracing.github.io/

I've seen a lot of comments that were against the grain but still upvoted on reddit. I'm not saying they never downvote comments they don't like but if you are getting downvoted consistently and without interactions it might be more than just being sincere.

They probably have some sort of pre production going on where there's a few concept artists and writers worming on it but yeah I wouldn't expect much more than that.

While I've see games with better faces, they definitely looked better than Skyrim.
