@eniko @hell I feel like that's more about newsletter social media than social media you use to communicate with friends, or at least that's what all the examples seem to be of.

Are there any browser plugins that can hide videos / auto "don't recommend this channel" on youtube based on a shared blocklist? Getting tired of clicking an interesting video just to find out it was created with 90% AI :/

My github profile looks so different when the private repos from my job are counted vs when they're not #gamedev

not augmented reality, but you might have fun with geocaching. Some of them even have puzzles or games

@rhm
i just get asked to do time estimates, which is equally impossible to assess. Could take 20 minutes and work first try, or I could typo and spend 30 minutes extra before I realize what I did wrong. Or it can take 2 days because I it involved more than I initially expected

I’m always happy to chat privately about the places I have worked. #gamedev jobs are extremely about fit. What works for person A might not for Person B, what’s person A’s cake can be person B’s poison. Anyway, just making it a note here so feel free to ping me if your own network isn’t giving you that insight

@runevision
that's cool, I've been mostly using unity jobs for parallel stuff, but that requires them to be burst compatible

This is good. The fact that "AI" was the final sticking point means the WGA were correct in asserting that the strike was prolonged because the studios were failing to negotiate; If the studios really wanted writers back at work, agreeing to not do something they've never done before and aren't currently doing would be uncontroversial.

Basically, studios wanted to replace writers with linear algebra, and unions prevented them. Good job.

Agreement Gives Writers Guild Most of What It Wanted

Studios and the Writers Guild of America reached a deal on Sunday night, but with actors still on picket lines, much of Hollywood will remain shut.
