honestly asking, whats the point of measuring time to first, etc. PR when it is all done by AI these days?

Exactly. And I didn't see anyone here talking about QuakeWorld, which changed the gaming experience in an unmatched way.

Well put. and It's funny to see the disdain after 30 years, after all the money they made from the game.

Yesterday, John Romero did a historic livestream on his Twitch channel. He played through a few maps while sharing details about the origins of Quake, design decisions, how Nine Inch Nails ended up doing the soundtrack, and a lot of rich information for fans of the game, at least for me, since I still play QW to this day and didn't know any of this.

But one thing I notice about Romero, or maybe I’m just imagining it, is that he doesnt seem to have anywhere near the same affection for Quake as he does for Doom. Maybe the internal issues back then had something to do with it.

Yes. Quake 3, "rebranded" as Quake Live, is the second best for me. I can play both for hours.

I still play quake (world) to this day. I just can't quit it.

congrats! I wish I could make a living of art again, music production in my case.

Because being a dev in 2026 is becoming unbearable.

How can I learn the practical side of computer vision in 2026?

I'm not interested in understanding papers or the math behind it, but rather in how to put a system into production, whether it's object detection, running 20 cameras in parallel on a single computer, like sizing hardware for a specific task, and so on.

Any tips?

I remember that when I was learning SQL, I felt like I was gaining a new way, or perspective, to think about other things in life.

I think you end up exercising how to structure your thoughts.

Isn't 20+ grams a day a lot for the kidneys? genuine question
