Living Brawlhalla archive, now focused on gamedev + uni

I don't post much, but i try and make it worth your time when i do!

Been a productive year

Today's the 18th anniversary of me being alive

@nvdloves @sqr2d you don't need to confirm to the player "yes you pressed this button", the player will automatically know if what they pressed happened on or not when you update them with the input history, so to me it sounds redundant

[Birbirl @Birbirl]

@nvdloves @sqr2d i guess it's the other person speaking for you, but what it sounds like is you just have what brawlhalla already does, but from scratch, so, i don't like calling this "much better netcode". Also, why are you doing ACK's for UDP? That's the point of tcp

[Birbirl @Birbirl]

@yayamnh48 @saltyAom ideally we'd have ai models be trained on public domain code, and then they could look for and load up the open source code into their context, then credit it for the user

which, by my means, would make it "indisputably" okay

but also it'd make the model terrible

[Birbirl @Birbirl]

@yayamnh48 @saltyAom i always thought about license infringement as a subset of copyright infringement
The actual trouble is determining the exact point. Is it infringed upon the training process, or when the robot spits out 1:1 gpl code, based on that data?
Or similar code?

same dilemma as with art

[Birbirl @Birbirl]

@saltyAom So i think a person should be aware of these factors and judge things case by case. There's simply projects which are in such a gray area that different people can come to opposite conclusions, and neither would be dumb

Thank you for listening to my dollar store ted talk

tldr:

[Birbirl @Birbirl]

@saltyAom And then finally it's the one off cases like crawlers ddosing self hosted git instances

Using ai to rewrite and wash licenses

Getting laid off for not using ai enough, then getting rehired later

The flood of low effort overpromised projects...

Makes me notice the art in code.

@unnecessaryfil1 Youuu might've forgotten to put up contact info / open your twitter dms lol

@Shrimpsbiscuit @TylerGlaiel if the enemy has it's back against the wall, or there's water in the way, it gets more compilcated.

Not super sure about how the algorithm works but that's the most i can roughly deduct

[Birbirl @Birbirl]

@Shrimpsbiscuit @TylerGlaiel here's a shitty mspaint drawing on why a frenzy cat might attack a friendly cat even tho an enemy is facing them. Cats prioritize taking shorter routes and dealing the most damage, so in this example they'd hit the ally instead of going around.

@Slow00Motion uhhh this is like eli15 instead of eli5 but close enough

@thetomska obligatory poster as well

[Birbirl @Birbirl]

@thetomska Yo, i'm settling for a twitter comment since that seems to be the best way to reach you

I think i've got quite the great recommendation for this series

Fanatyk is a polish short film based on the "My father is a fishing fanatic" copypasta, more deets: https://t.co/1cqWBlWu3w

@alejadrorr0123 @ProfPressure @FGC_Daily consider yourself a lucky toucher of grass

[Birbirl @Birbirl]

@alejadrorr0123 @ProfPressure @FGC_Daily Oh and i feel obliged to say that the skullgirls dev im talking about is Mike Z

[Birbirl @Birbirl]

@alejadrorr0123 @ProfPressure @FGC_Daily And killer instinct devs*

But yeah it's all really spotty. Im cheering for this game but i wouldnt be surprised if they dropped the ball again because of shitty management
