As a heads up, the latest windows update broke applications from being able to connect to `localhost`. It's not a problem for us except that the three most critical application used across the whole company will all stop working. #dotnet #windows

Every podcast that mentions AI goes down the same path of it being flawless and all code is being written by it. Clearly they are not talk to people who use it. It's interesting to see others with the same feedback.

The hardest part is make sure the packages are written well and maintained. With the next version of Cadet I have increased the speed by 50% with some compiler tricks (skipping packages without callbacks) however packages can still tank it. It's something I am hoping to fix with better dev tools
Aww you are the best <3
I was in Vancouver last week for work and went to go visit Devon at Amazon. She is working on the Cadet equivalent as well! It seems like it's a common problem across many studios
Yeah, I am not really happy about the new owners. In addition I
assume layoffs will be happening in the future.
What a start to the day..
The mood is not great
Today I started off the day with googling "How do I write a method". Coming back to my beginnings.
Learning a new language is fine
The amount of coordination across all of EA on this title is insane. It's exciting to see it all come together.
They always says naming things is one of the hardest parts of programming. Sometimes you get it right and other times you end up with "water weird" dice set. #temu
Just wait till they bring back marquees :p
I thought programmer UX design was bad, today I learned that project manager UX is even worse. Lets have 5 progress bars of various different thicknesses and might as well throw in some random flashing. :cry-sunglasses:
Reviews from my #GDC talk this year. I am super happy with the results from my first talk. I really wish the person who voted poor would have written feedback. I love knowing what I can improve on :)
I got my feedback too but only positive comments but one person reviewed my talk as poor. TELL ME WHY? lol I want to get better
Another very disappointing choice :(
Just today one of our QV and Developers could not repo a bug that was blocking our end users due to `p4user` being set correctly in their global variables.
For example if you don't define the user it will do the following and use the first one.
1. Global Cli a`p4 -u {username}`
2. Environment Variable `P4USER`
3. Recursively look for `p4config` with a `P4User` value
4. The registry `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Perforce\Environment\P4User`
Don't Get Burn by Perforce!
Did you know when you run Perforce commands from the cli, it will attempt to resolve all the global arguments for you? This is single-handedly the biggest source of bugs in any tooling around Perforce that I have worked on.

My colleague gave me a plant and I named her Rachel LaPlant. She is lovely and going to thrive
Why is there a print button??? What is this
SunLife has the most garbage website in the world. In what world does a website have 'business hours'. They are trying their best to align to standards of website design standards from the early 2000s. I am just waiting or marquees to be used.
"goes to a spa to relax"
🤔 did I cover that edge case from my MR on Friday 🤔
The weather gave the middle finger back lol

Don't be fooled by false spring, it's going to be... messy👀
The header image for the evaluation website
If you visited GDC last week, please complete your session evaluations. You will have gotten an email with the subject "GDC 2025 Session Evaluation Reminder"
You can leave feedback on what you liked and disliked, so I can adjust my roundtables to be even better in the future!
For developers out there, make sure instead of just complaining, harness that energy and file bug reports. Make sure you can create simple to reproduce cases. At the end of the day it will make things better for everyone. Just this week I have files 3. Two for Microsoft and one for Jet Brains.
Did you ask the AI researcher if he was lonely? For science reasons of course
This is the content I am here for
Had an absolute blast this year at #gdc. It was always on my bucket list to speak at the conference. Hopefully I will get to speak more in the future as it's always great to share and maybe inspire.
Thank gosh it's from a `noreply` email address, we avoided that hell
