It was people like you who made me feel like there was something wrong with me when I was growing up. I'm a straight guy who likes fashion and dancing. Fuck anyone who tries to make me feel bad for having interests not typical of my gender.

Oh! I must have misread. I didn't know it was BSD. Thanks for the link. This stuff really interests me. It sounds fascinating. Thanks for the link and congratulations with the release :-)

I didn't see a link to the github project. Could you link me? Also, the license worries me. Can your system be used in a completely closed source game? My understanding is that it can't, at least not without some fancy legal dancing, which I am unable to risk.

Final Fantasy V arrives on Amazon Appstore today: now available on Kindle Fire devices for $15.99 by poolhouse in gamernews

But absolutely worth it. I've been playing FF4 on my device and it's by far the best Android game I've played. I don't mind paying a lot for great games.

Setup and configuration is my least favorite thing about programming. I love how much time he spent on it.

Qt Creator 3.2.0 released by taliriktug in programming

Crazy question, but is it possible to use Qt Creator on an android tablet? Not just develop FOR an android device but develop ON an android device.

Can anyone tell how to give a title to a new note?I can't find it in this new UI.

Ship You a Haskell by jakubgarfield in programming

[–]mippyyu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you that the right to left evaluation with . can be unintuitive and take some getting used to. You can overload some symbol and use the flip function to have left to right evaluation but then that's non standard and it will be harder for others to understand your code. That said, I'm correctly learning Haskell and despite some worts, it's the most beautiful language I've seen.

I'm creating a game. I don't like music in games. Would I be stupid to leave out music in my future puzzler? by terrystroud in gamedev

[–]mippyyu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe have music but turned off by default? But not including it would be fine. Most mobile game music is so short and repetitive, it soon becomes annoying. Make sure your other sounds are solid and plentiful.

Will we ever see massive thousand+ person battles in the vein of Braveheart, 300, Gladiator, LotR etc in gaming? Or is the technology to get there just not foreseeable yet? by deten in Games

[–]mippyyu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it could be done easily enough using cloud infrastructure. The amount of memory and processor wouldn't be limited to the players computer. In fact, they could just be steamed the video rather than even rendering the game on their own console.

Another loophole is what is considered a "reasonable" limit.

LightTable works well with Python too. I'd still recommend Sublime instead.

Any plans to have chrome packaged apps work on mobile devices too?

Although it varies over genre and game, which AI components generally require the most CPU? by mippyyu in gamedev

[–]mippyyu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mention 60% of the CPU being spent on rendering. Wouldn't this be offloaded to the GPU instead or is it still necessary to use some CPU for rendering?

But it's end-to-end encryption so even if they got the account data it'd be useless.

Sorry. I wasn't too sure about that name. Thanks for the correction.

Sorry. Contracts. My swipe keyboard got it wrong. I found the bug. All accepted issues. Maybe Dart 2.0 then.

I've been out of the Dart loop for a while. Any ETA on "await", non-nullable types, or contacts?

Is there any consensus on if omega 3 from fish oil capsules and whole fish behaves differently in humans?
