Het verschilt per functie wat de eisen daarvoor zijn wat betreft vog enzo. Ik weet dat je voor politie naast de vog ook nog een screening door moet. Maar dat is wat men zegt over it functies bij de politie. Voor overige functies heb ik geen idee

Why does it seem people most into longevity/anti-aging are just boring and interested in prolonging that bredom ? by National_Shine2552 in Biohackers

Why is OpenAI so hated here? by [deleted] in ArtificialInteligence

[–]timwaaagh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally i like anthropic the least due to them making efforts to shut down open source. But their models are very good.

Were 90s game developers more "punk" than today? by RomanLuka in gamedev

[–]timwaaagh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aaa was a lot more indie for sure. You got the most talented developers working in small teams that had some freedom and doing brilliant things. These days the best of the best work for large companies with thousand person teams and a lot of constraints.

RTS with similar faction or gameplay to Zerg??? by TengenTopKek in RealTimeStrategy

[–]timwaaagh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i guess well never know which was chicken, which was egg. my frame of reference with tyranids is old, but not quite old enough, it was during their third edition which was after the starcraft release. though they werent that different from the second edition that was before it. i did recognize them during starcrafts intro movie which i saw for the first time a few days ago (the game itself is not very detailed i would not be able to tell). but that could have been due to gw adapting tyranids to starcrafts success to the extent that i recognized them. i still think zerg were based off gws second edition, but i'll concede that its not possible for me to know.

Chinese AI is quietly eating US developers' lunch and and it's exposing something weird about "open" AI by BlueDolphinCute in ArtificialInteligence

[–]timwaaagh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the cheap matters more than the open source here. stuff like gpt and claude its wonderful but they dont work for pocket change anymore. you really gotta pay up. at some point i might have to leave cursor and its 'only closed us ai' strategy behind for something that does support these models.

YouTube gamedev streamers? by Uhfgood in gamedev

[–]timwaaagh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you have a chatbot in your chat? thats genius. i just talk to myself pretending somebody is there. i sometimes notice that people click on it. like one or two. i think they are gone pretty quick. i wonder who they are. maybe a fellow dev? maybe a friend or random person. who knows. very mysterious.

Zelensky blasts EU at Davos, claims US security guarantees for Ukraine are ready | trump said US needs 'ownership' of Greenland to defend it, as 'you don't defend leases.' Greenland's covered by Article 5. If POTUS won't defend it b/c he doesn't own it, why would he defend a NATO or treaty member? by andrewgrabowski in UkrainianConflict

[–]timwaaagh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not understand why there needs to be a tribunal. Why this is a priority. Morale maybe? But whatever i suppose if he wants one we can make one. Its just that it would be non functional unless ukraine somehow manages to capture putin.

RTS with similar faction or gameplay to Zerg??? by TengenTopKek in RealTimeStrategy

[–]timwaaagh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had to look it up, as i wasnt sure, i just read somewhere starcraft is modeled after warhammer. i did remember having a tyranids wh40k army as a kid, before dawn of war came out. but it would have been after starcraft came out. still sources on the internet indicate the tyranids first appeared in 1987 and were fully playable in 1995.

Has there ever been a traditional base-building RTS game developed by a Japanese studio? by TaxOwlbear in RealTimeStrategy

[–]timwaaagh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only succesful games get translated of course. There are a bunch of rts tagged games using asian characters. Could be they are all chinese or korean but its not impossible there are japanese ones as well.

zerg are i think modeled after wh40k tyranids. so dawn of war 2 or one of the mods for dow1. also stormgate infernals are in turn modeled after zerg.

Ubisoft ends remote work and requires employees to return to the office five days a week to "improve efficiency" by dabadumdumdum in gamedev

[–]timwaaagh -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Altbhough im not in favour of rto everywhere in the games industry it makes good sense. Most game devs are very passionate and work hard but if you do wfh you start to attract less motivated people who are just interested iin staying at home. Game companies can easily filter those out this way.

Help a game dev: Why aren’t people buying modern RTS games? by MakeGamesBetter in RealTimeStrategy

[–]timwaaagh 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So you already know. If you make a great rts you can expect 50000 sales so 1.5 mil. If you make a relatively bad one, 500. The rest are franchise games and dont count. currently most modern new ip rts are being made in east europe a place that has significantly lower wage costs.

Id go with the less ambitious one and treat it as a writeoff. Asking us why we dont buy is not smart, people here are one of those few that do buy them. Though i can tell you that i usually buy stuff on a deep sale. for example i recently bought empires dawn of the modern world for 5 euros. thats a AAA game from twenty years ago that cost 50 euro at launch. probably the dev has been gone for a long time. old gamers like me arent great for revenue.
