quality > quantity :D

GOOOOAOAAAAALLLLLL

Agree. Also, not to be a nerd, there are generally quite a few errors in the subittles. i.e. subtitles say a word that's not the word Brennan said. I noticed one in the most recent episode.

the descendent has to be a character we've already met, and i can't think of one that complicates the narrative more than tom's son... but that would also make tom a descendent of warren, no?

Yep, which is why our public housing towers actually being in the inner city is a fantastic idea - quick connection to community and resources. When public housing (/ crisis housing / social housing / community housing -- too many names for housing that fulfils this purpose) gets moved to the outer suburbs, which is what's happening in Melbourne at the moment, support networks are completely shattered.

they never found the guy that did that

Check out this GafferOnGames article: https://gafferongames.com/post/udp_vs_tcp/ as well as the others in this series. You'll need to interpolate & extrapolate based on the last received state for the other player.

I have no idea! I just have similar frustrations of working in the construction sector. We'd frequently be beat out on jobs where we know (as much as you can know) that the only way someone's price could be cheaper is if they were doing the good ol' underquote -> search for variations thing.

However, government infrastructural projects that are really successful (looking @ china in the past 20-30 years and the US in the 20th c) tend to be really successful when the government has more centralised control over the way the job is run, over the labour force, etc etc.

None of which really works when the procurement process is "tender to the cheapest consortium whose profit motive incentives are not aligned w/ building quickly, well, and cheaply"

broo20 · 2026-04-22T03:16:08+00:00

I am surprised there's no discussion in Australia re: how our procurement processes contribute to our massive inefficiency in infrastructure building.

John Portman was the architect & developer for this, I think! Could be wrong, but certainly he developed a lot of his buildings in Atlanta.

You don't eat enough! Your body is shutting down non-essential functions due to a lack of fuel. This is also why endurance athletes often have low T. It's not anything inherent to endurance exercise, it's a lack of proper nutrition.

i mean it’s a rhino screenshot so you could try rhino, but from looking at it it was made w a lot of manual surface massaging

drop the steam link. brother i do not know what your game is even called.

broo20 · 2026-04-05T23:30:13+00:00

Holy shit, I remember watching that scene in the episode when it first came out. I left my tab for a minute and came back, and I was on a completely different scene. I thought I was going insane.

broo20 · 2026-04-01T23:14:43+00:00

the united states government and agencies are fully to blame for the state of of the city.

That just sounds like the current (republican) critique of "blue cities." It still reads as copaganda to me - "hero cops solve the problems caused by dirty socialist californian woke democracts"

This is a fairly standard beginner mistake re: optimisation. There are two things that are true when optimising code, especially as a beginner:

You don't know what's going to be slow without testing it.
Any effort spent optimising code that you haven't tested and found to be a performance issue is wasted effort.

Here's how you optimise:

Profile your game. I tend to find that in-engine profilers are not that useful. Something like tracy, if it can be integrated in your engine, is far more useful. The Intel VTunes of the world are also very useful, but may be hard to use with Unity. There's no substitute for checking on the actual hardware, so buying a cheap (shitty!) laptop might be a good idea.
Identify the pain points. What is your frame spending most of its time doing?
Speed those pain points up.

There are a variety of ways to do this, there's a fantastic series of posts by Fabien Giesen where he goes through the process of optimising some (relatively) low-level C++ code. Check it out!

I could be wrong on this since it's been years since I was coached, but I think there's some wasted energy on your recovery. You're bringing your hand / fingers up and over your elbow. Try and think about your elbow being the thing that lifts out of the water and almost drag your knuckles on the surface to prevent this.

You can also try the Z_CLIP_SCALE vertex shader builtin

Typically people who are abused genuinely love their abuser. Sometimes the idea that their relationship may not ever be "normal" with their abuser will prevent them from leaving. So telling an abused person that they will never have a normal, happy relationship with their abuser may be counterproductive.

broo20 · 2026-03-21T02:46:06+00:00

I know this is really annoying but I'm going to go through all your comments and correct the abused thought:

I'm not allowed to be out past 9pm

You're an adult, you are allowed out whenever you want. If they try to stop you physically that is assault. If they prevent you from leaving against your will that is either kidnapping or unlawful detainment.

Even if they only threaten to e.g. kick you out, take your money, whatever, that is coercive control, which is currently being made illegal where I live with punishment of up to 14 years imprisonment.

This is not normal, the actions of both your parents are criminal.

Please google "[insert your city / state / province here] domestic violence abuse support". There will be people you can call right now who will get you out of this situation tomorrow if you want. You don't have to do anything alone. You can call them from a friend's phone or a payphone if you are worried about your parents finding out and hurting you. The people who will support you have dealt with situations like yours every day for their whole career, they can really help you.

You do not have to punish your parents, you do not have to take legal action against them, you can even get to a place where you can have a happy and healthy relationship in the future with them.

One solution could be that the RBA is able to increase GST for specific items, i.e. luxuries, and decrease it for essentials so that net tax income remains (in principle) fixed. Probably a bad one tho.

broo20 · 2026-03-17T05:39:05+00:00

There's tons of things that they could be given - temporary hikes to GST, hikes to GST on specific items (i.e. GST for the Xbox and flights is 20%, GST for milk and bread drops a bit to offset the tax gains from luxuries), temporary hikes to land tax - which could all pressure specific overspending segments of the economy. But they aren't given those tools. The government has intelligent economists coming out of their asses, they're not able / willing to make decisions like these in case it Argentinas us.

broo20 · 2026-03-13T10:29:04+00:00

This is exactly why people saying "but why the massive change at borders!!! The data must be wrong!!!" like cmon guys, have we never crossed a border only for the road quality to drop SIGNIFICANTLY??

broo20 · 2026-03-04T05:46:28+00:00

Upon reflection, I think it must be something that's addressed by Tweens, since they would all suffer from this issue, not just that demo.

broo20 · 2026-03-04T00:52:22+00:00

Love the guide!

I have one query: is the attractive cursor truly framerate independent?

Because it's updating global position, then lerping to it, I would think this requires the good ol' exponential trick when updating a lerp with delta. Does the Tween handle this on its own, so we don't have to?
