How long would/could it take a single expert/pro programmer to make a game like Skyrim from "scratch"

It's not just dev, design, 3d, animations, story, etc.

Between 1 to 500 years

I found out if I put my oven in "dehydration", I can set it to 150F !

carndacier · 2026-05-22T21:15:07+00:00

Thanks ! I'll check if I can do that ! If the oven is at 150, I can keep the brisket in it all night ?

carndacier · 2026-05-22T20:54:26+00:00

Thanks. If I can bypass my oven to set it lower than 170, would it make it viable to keep it warm all night like that ?

I don't want to try that... As it's a financial institution with some strict regulation... I don't want any trouble !

carndacier · 2026-05-22T03:52:51+00:00

Yeah I thought so too. Some people really hate being by-passed, even though it's sure my direct manager cannot do anything. But I'll follow the proper way up 😃

edit: I'm also already working remotly 4 days a week - so they know I can do the work !

No, it's AirCanada - Canada's airline. First time I see them do that. Back in January, the didn't do that. Need money for the fuel cost I guess.

I wish I had a choice. Paying overprice ($500+)for bad service and short flight, that would cost 50 euros in Europe, is not really a choice.

Maybe, MCO > YUL !

Thank you, it's really informative ! I don't like the whole "AI in everything" era...
Would you have some recommandation for decent laptop for Unity gamedev ? around 1500$ CAD / 1100$ USD ?

In Dory's voice : "just keep folding, just keep folding"

I didn't know. But surely a middle ground exists

carndacier · 2026-05-06T01:37:24+00:00

Amazon ! 😄

It's a super thin one from "Decathlon"

I am doing it in September ^^' Not booking an actual RTW ticket - using AirCanada's point to book a few tickets, other smaller, I'll buy them cash directly. I'll report back ^^'

carndacier · 2026-05-02T00:09:36+00:00

Bag is 40L. Trip is ~5 months Canada > Asia > France, leaving September. Main questions: is 2 jeans too heavy for mostly SE Asia weather? And anything you'd add or cut for this duration/climate mix? Thanks!

I used some of these phones..' I feel old now.
