Part of the problem, I assume, is that Epic (as a company) and Fortnite (as a game, and as a platform) is going to embrace AI and AI itself is one of the reasons Fortnite is more expensive to run. That's a tough message to explain to people. It also explains why you might not even try.

We're nearly at corps monetizing "buy this new story from Stephen King!" And it's an AI agent story. If an author wants to license that, fine. But selling fan fiction is still technically illegal. Do coaching from public domain authors. Fine. But we'e living hand to mouth out here, and I'm tired

Your guide already highlights transparency and user trust; refining threat models, versioned documentation, user-centered examples, and layered information will make the advice more vivid and immediately actionable.

I know that bad news is coming when a co-worker messages me with "You're gonna be so mad..."

Grammarly has rolled out an AI-powered "expert review" feature where its simulacrum of me makes suggestions for your text. My real edits are usually along the lines of "Throw this into the sea."

Game development is a process where you move a slider to full, then grudgingly move it down by 5% every week until others can stand the output.

Regarding binary vs decimal prefixes, and the former's daft similar naming to the (already well established) latter.

I love how cis people are throwing parties in states where trans people can be arrested for using the bathroom at the airport if they tried to go.

a re-do on the vision cone system that works with physics raycast vision to create dynamic fan geometry+mixed w/shader. Seems to create some decently occluded results with environment walls. can't have that stuff render clipping.
preferring this over render targets/lightproj based techniques
