Microsoft is killing Windows

FTFY

If I remember correctly, you’re describing the draw order, which is typically a material setting in Godot. It’s been a while, though; you may need to dig a little.

Here, have an upvote.

Tween as in tweening, from the animation term.

“People like me”? I’m not the aggressor in this conversation, I’m just not taking angry xenophobic propaganda right now.

You know what, you do that. It isn’t my issue, and computers aren’t for everyone.

That’s entirely unconfirmed hearsay. He’s also been in this industry since FF6, working with a heck of a lot of people, so it would very much be sudden and unusual.

When a court rules on it, I’ll take it seriously.

Coming from New Mexico where you can buy alcohol at a pharmacy and chase your painkillers with it, I think having specific state controlled liquor stores is actually a pretty good idea.

Not a Skyrim fan?

In my dreams, Hideo Kojima, the old Castlevania people, the fired senior writers at BioWare, and now, the old gods of Volition when it was good, are quietly building a studio together somewhere. With Mick Gordon and Jeremy Soule running OSTs.

Never tell a joke, if you don’t think it’s funny.

I can’t tell if he’s being sarcastic, or not, or if he knows whether he’s being sarcastic or not.

The red band is where the real geniuses are. Apparently.

No disrespect, but i must disagree.

My last experience with WSL, about a month ago on Win 11, had it a far cry from GNU/Linux. They don’t even have a shoe-in for udev yet, and as a multimedia guy, that makes it almost unusable.

Allow me to clarify.

C has for, while, and do-while. That’s it.

Ruby has for, while, do-while, until, rescue, inlined conditionals, optionals, and iterators, for what amounts to the same task; not to mention exceptions (something the C standard has repeated swerved away from, wisely) and lambdas.

I’m not saying that there isn’t a time for Ruby, but if you think C falls into the same category then we’re very much in disagreement.

Of recent features, what exactly makes it better for development?

When you’re first writing a line of code, you should already be thinking about how you might refactor it in the future, and preparing for that.

For me the big issue with Ruby—which admittedly has many fine features I would like to see in other languages—is the lack of a general standard for its operations. There are so many ways to get the same basic logic loop done, it feels like a recipe for either unfollowable code or chaos in programming teams.

Props and big up for the G’MIC shoutout. That thing is a BEAST.

Absolutely. I don’t know if it’s the absolute best, but I very much agree for using a high-level language for high-level tasks. There’s a reason they’re designed that way—you’re not burning Hertz, dang it; you’re burning seconds, and you’re burning them either way!

That said, please, please don’t use it for performance critical code.

Not necessarily. They could easily be talking about the monstrosity that is Eclipse.
