        I don't like those fixed point libraries much.

        There also doesn't seem to be a clear standard on fixed point math in C++, as simple as it sounds. The same precision or even the same type names are not guaranteed, it's arguably less consistent than floats.

        I might use incredibly large integers and then just cut them back down to floats when the renderer draws them (on PC).

        Digital Tar Pits - How to Fight Back Against A.I.

        A new movement aimed at poisoning A.I. models like ChatGPT has gained traction after hackers have been attempting to trap said models in a never ending ‘Tar Pit’ of nonsense. After reading an Ars Technica interview, I tracked down a hacker developing tools to poison AI training data. Tools such as ‘Nepenthes’ are designed to confuse and corrupt the models that scrape the internet for their learning. But can we really stop A.I. from turning the web into a mess of low-quality, regurgitated slop?

              Implemented libXMP into the engine. It's not finished yet, we have to pass it through PhysFS for the PC version. But now that we have a dedicated setup to handle tracker files that we can pipe into the existing Allegro streaming system we can do things like reactive music. And we won't have to rewrite a whole lot for the backports where Allegro can't be used. It doesn't sound quite as good as DUMB or modplug (Amiga Soundtracker files sound REALLY bad) but I doubt it will matter once we have the final soundtrack.

              Some of the stuff you find on the cplusplus.com forum is actually embarassing. I'm still learning how this language works and even I can tell like 95% of the answers posted there are wrong.

              There's this Youtube video where someone reads a thread on there and it's... a trip. I can't find it in my history but I vividly remember watching it thinking the entire time that the next gen of software engineers is fucking doomed.

              Lmao okay so... I was under the assumption that typeid.name couldn't be run against just a type and had to be passed a real, living object. Every single example online for seeing if two polymorphic classes were the same type gave the wrong fucking answer, one even suggesting I do some gross hack with stdlib static casts.

              Guys, just typeid(sourceObject).name() == typeid(destinationObjectType).name(), how is EVERY Q&A source for C++ this terrible?

              It might have been mentioned in the ISO standard docs and in that case I skimmed over it which is my fault.

              It seems like the 9th gen is just going to end up as a failure (Steam Deck doesn't count). I never thought it could ever get worse than the 3DO era, but here we are. Just to think that if console generations were as long as they were 20 years ago, it would be wrapping up.

              I understand why Windows users like MSVC now.

              It's the only good(ish) option with a standard library included, that doesn't require a degree in rocket science to set up.

              MSYS2 packages and CMake projects are a pain in the fucking ass on Windows. I have no idea where to point my dependencies at. I can't compile liballeg from source as easily as I can on Linux natively.

              IDK how you guys tolerate writing C on Windows. Your only two options are a toolchain that is unpredictable and another toolchain that tries--and fails--to be like Arch.

                It's not that women can't be stronger than men, because they can. It's that on average they have a biological disadvantage specifically in certain areas that makes it harder to be stronger than a man who puts in a similar amount of effort. Testosterone promotes muscular development. A transgender woman who's biologically male has grown up with male anatomy and potentially, but not always, gets a head start on muscular strength.

                Unfortunate facts of nature, not misogyny.

                Just because the imbalance is not always significant or guaranteed does not mean it is not still a form of cheating. Gender and weight class separation in sports was created for a reason.

                        This is a bush with procedural geometry. The Art Department is currently conditioning a bunch of plant textures, but it's going to take some more time. Artists in general seem to have no understanding of what a game expects of their textures and models and as such we have to fix a bunch of little things with every asset, even purchased, professional ones; it was easier to write a procedural bush geometry generator than condition the artists' models into a reasonable state.
