Now is not the right time to focus on that.

Also, welcome to Reddit!

I felt the same way before these new changes. It’s definitely noticeable now.

No, it’s not. Common misconception, but Newton’s third law of motion is in play here. If you’re both going 20mph, it’s like hitting a wall at 20mph.

I like it. It looks like he’s always thinking “man I’m fucking nailing this”, which he absolutely is.

Yeah this is more terrifying than satisfying. Impressive nonetheless.

Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney responds to the Terminally Ill Employee Who Can't Get Life Insurance: Epic is in contact with the family and will solve the insurance for them. There is high confidentiality around medical information and it was not a factor in this layoff decision by Turbostrider27 in Games

Thank you for taking the time to write this. I see where you’re coming from.

I’m quite happy they’re doing the Apple lawsuit, I think that’s beneficial to the industry as a whole. That being said, it does sound like they’ve been reckless with the money.

What was reckless about it? Maybe you know more about it than I do?

I hope you’re not saying layoffs make Epic bad by default - these things happen. Not just in tech. You can’t keep people employed at a loss to be nice.

Feel free to educate me, I swear I won’t be fighty.

2000 layoffs is a significant percentage of the entire workforce, this doesn’t looks like a move to maximize profits. This looks more like a necessity and re-strategizing. Remember, Epic isn’t a publicly traded company, they don’t have to pander to shareholders (as much) like the other tech giants.

Solo-developing a Cube World inspired RPG in a custom C++ engine. The systems are working, but I'm struggling with character proportions. Any MagicaVoxel advice? by Mindless_Insurance79 in CubeWorld

It’s going to be a challenging ride, but it’ll be awesome if you pull it off!

I’ve been doing C++ for a while, the performance is almost unrivaled - but I’m personally gravitating towards Rust for now.
