I have a feeling little AI things like this will add up to become "AGI" and "Sentience" for machines to normal everyday people. Honestly thats enough.
Well trained models w/tool calls and ever expanding MCP servers.
@battleangelviv I was using FSD leaving San Francisco when the power outage froze the Waymos
my family was with me telling me the navigation was wrong and made no sense, turns out it was avoiding all the blocked intersections
Epic laid off an engineer who was dying of cancer and he lost his insurance. They're now trying to cover their ass
Meanwhile, epic replaced said engineer with someone on a work visa: https://t.co/EYPTmTfLLr
Not even surprising anymore...
Part of me wants the new M5 but I honestly LOVE my M1 mac mini.
It's an amazing fucking product. Maybe I'll bite the bullet and get a studio when this thing dies.
Apple M5 (TSMC 3nm) vs Intel Ultra 7 355 (Intel 1.8nm)
The gap is out of control. it's embarrassing to even call it same year product,
Don't forget we're comparing
[Fanless 15W System vs Dual Fan 29W System]
@AmericanismBLVR@rc51_nono_sp2 I was just about to post some hank Williams jr. And you can't forget Hank Williams III (the third).

As an outsider the political manuevering was a little obvious considering how many blue haired karens and LGBTQ postering "people" they had on their developer focused livestreams.
I love Sweeney but its a little too captured by the Woke crowd. Drop ue6, drop uefn, refocus.
2 Epic Games employees who were laid off vented their frustrations on Reddit anonymously. Unfortunate to read this and see the reality of things behind the scenes.
Well yeah, He's fleecing them to the tune of 30% which comes out to around $65,000 per dev.
Lets say 1300 games make at a minimum $215k (pre-gabe tax) take the 30% ($65k) and put it into Gabe's pocket. That is $84.5 million he fleeces indies per year.
Steam makes $16B/year.
Steam experts say that indie games reaching about $150,000 in sales and 500 reviews in the first six months become special "golden geese" that catch Gabe Newell's attention.
Developers act like clever goblins who turn player wishlists into real money by making updates and doing good marketing.
Unironically this is why you need to use a tool like Adguard (russia based company) for blocking this kind of data collection.
I'd sooner trust the russian govt with my private data then a local agency.
The FBI has confirmed it is buying commercially available location data from private companies.
This lets the agency track people's movements using smartphone data without needing a warrant.
If Roblox can weather the age verification shitstorm (and ongoing lootbox court cases with Steam) its going through I can see them having a very profitable next 5-10 years.
Fortnite is bleeding cash and DAU. Roblox I think will be the clear winner in the long run.
Game Development and LLMs I think are hitting a plateau. Yes they are amazing but only for CRUD/Scaffolding/Architecture.
For the final 40% of a game you need a team of humans
Playtesting/UI-UX/Juice design.
So while I do think game development is more open to new people its still a large bridge to cross to building good games.
It'll be exciting to see what the Roblox Studio team builds out with their MCP server next.
