That actually makes a lot of sense

It’s funny he says a lot of modern CS education is bad

I did Computer Engineering rather than CS for undergrad and we covered like 80% of the topics in that list

Had multiple courses in Verilog/OS and worked a lot with microcontrollers/FPGAs. Building a CPU in verilog then writing an assembler/compiler was definitely the highlight.

Was a hard program but I felt like I had a really good understanding of the full stack coming out of it.

Maybe he just isn’t familiar with CE?

I’ve worked with a lot of different UI frameworks (both native and web) and ImGui is definitely my favourite

It’s just so simple

For example adding an input box for editing a float value is one line of code and the syncing is done by just passing it a pointer.

Google maps has offline maps where you can pre-download a region

I use that all the time in areas with no cell service

I never get these type of questions because it’s like, what are you trying to do?

Just acquire skills for the sake of it?

The latter is the actual concern in the here and now

The former is science fiction

I wonder since this runs at real time framerate if it would be possible for someone to composite a regular rasterized frame on top of something like this (with correct depth testing) to make a game

For example a 3rd person game where the character you control and the NPCs/enemies is raster but the environment is all radiance fields

There literally already is a simpler solution for non-technical people, it’s called Perforce and tons of game studios use it

But I’m sure you’re smarter than the whole industry so you probably know better

Alignment between you and the AI is not what you need to worry about

It’s about alignment between you and the company directing the AI

Almost every big game studio uses Perforce

> Add to that the necessity for less-technical people (artists, designers, VFX, audio, etc) to use it

How is that solved with Git?

It’s just a fun project why are you taking it so serious
