today's (hopefully) your last day to be an unapologetic, full-throated zohran mamdani supporter before we have to start holding him accountable as an elected mayor, so let's enjoy it while it lasts.

I contracted on a game that fundamentally changed what it was trying to be every six months because the CD had played a new game over the weekend. They worked on that doomed project for ever seven years before someone finally pulled the plug

How poor leadership slows down game development

No tool—AI or otherwise—can speed up game development if leaders don't rise to the occasion.

I don't have as many fun Riot stories, but I have ten years of game dev trouble making stories in general

Maybe some day I'll tell them

I had an interview today where we kinda just had a chat for a while about random old work stories and I told him about the time we spilled red wine on the floor of the Bethesda lounge and hr got mad because the stain wouldn't come out

Anyways, I have given up guessing if I'll get the job

In case you'd like to do it yourself, here's the node setup for object-stable screenspace UVs I'm using

The original is by @jankaluza.bsky.social, and I've changed it to add a fixed radius and set it up as a Material Function on my end

Should work in any version of Unreal 4/5

My congratulations to all Baseball Perverts. It was their "super bowl" last night and it seems they all had a very bad time (in their culture that's how you have a good time)

Misconduct means they'd not be eligible for unemployment, so this is not just stupid it's cruelty

Unjustifiably performance manage suspected union organizers out like a normal organization.

Misconduct?? We used to be a society

This is about Rockstar, but it also applies to literally every other job on the planet.

Do. Not. Discuss. Unions. On. Company. Time.

Don't use your work phone or computer for union shit. Don't log into your personal Discord if you're talking union shit. Keep your personal data hygiene up!
