I created something similar to Hyphen at my previous job and while it was a big shift in mentality, implementing UI in the backend and having the apps consume that and render it with native components os really underrated.

Using claude for game design, art design, and coding. I can see you're even using AI to respond to comments in this thread. At that point this is just a game made by AI. It's one thing to lean on AI to cover our blind spots, but if AI is in all stages of the pipeline I just wonder what the point of all this is?

Did you really need to waste money and resources to make a simple word game? Are people really getting to be this lazy already? /rant

> Everyone needs to care about the Product

This isn't the first time I hear this, but I always have a bit of trouble with this one. It's one thing to take a step back and think about the actual product and how it'll be used, but I think it's presumptuous to think that software engineers know what makes a product good or not. We don't say "Everyone needs to care about software architecture, even Product", so I'm not sure why we think the flip side of that is true.

I really don't think Yakuza games are anything like GTA besides "being in a city". Yakuza has none of the sandbox elements like GTA, the city is more like an elaborate menu to go from mission to mission/side quest/activity.

I'm not sure who this is for. On one hand multiplayer games are complicated to make, even with a dedicated framework, but on the other the tutorial wastes time explaining to me how to undo with ctrl+z and there's even a large infobubble on how to copy and paste text.

This are just dumbed down phones in a sense: I don't want my mp3 player to be running android. I want a minimal piece of software that lets me quickly navigate to the songs that I want, and physical buttons to do it. I've look long and hard for something like this and cannot for the life of me find it. I'm really sad that I lost my Ipod classic 10 years ago.

I love Rectangle, will definetly check this out!

Not being a rock star but showing potential is great. But there are some people who are allegedly always busy, in over their head, etc. And these are the type of people I agree that should be avoided. I've found that more often than not these people are always wasting time in meetings, chatting it up, only to complain about lack of time 1 hour later.

I'm not saying don't socialize and just work ; you just need to balance the two.

This is amazing news. As a long time IntelliJ user (Android dev for 7+ years) who wants to start doing more c++, having free access to Clion is a godsend.

I had trouble believing anything in the article since every sentence or 2 has a link to "the best laptop" or "the best powerbank". Just seems like a hub for a bunch of links to sponsored content.

I used sbt in my previous job and didn't hate it. All I want from build systems is to get out of my way and it let us do that pretty well. Very simple to add new tasks as well.

What service are you using that's 4$/month? I've used the free tier of Render on the past which I enjoyed but the lowest paid plan is 20$/month.

Can confirm that in Montreal there is a permanent version of this card (la carte OPUS) on which you can reload more tickets.

There are even semi permanent ones you can buy, which are good for say 1 day, 1 weekend, or contain 10 passes.

Why is v a scam? Genuinely curious, I don't know much about it besides it being a c++ competitor.

Assuming a homogeneous cake, I think you can get around this by cutting the cake in half, and then cutting a line perpendicular to that one. Each person takes 2 pieces that touch each other diagonally, which should in theory give each person half of the cake.
