I don't know why this week became the tipping point, but nearly every software engineer I've talked to is experiencing some degree of mental health crisis.

Trying to keep up with Web Dev a bit. Here's a Simpsons quiz site, name the episode by the frame. Might look into hosting it soon.

a few of us unity insiders just had a meeting with some of the leadership at Unity we're under NDA, so I can't share details of what was discussed but, I got a tiny glimmer of cautious hope restored I'm happy they were willing to talk frankly, and take the time to listen

I worked on an early, very different iteration of the @unity pricing changes ~1 yr ago My thoughts: 1. Unity strategically had no choice but to make changes 2. Devs are upset, but it isn't quite as bad as it seems 3. Unity's comms & implementation wasn't great More below πŸ‘‡

I was wrong. This is how the fees are working out for Rust: Lifetime we'd have paid them about $410k more. About $40k a year. Last month it would have cost us $2,517. While this isn't much, here's some stuff I don't like: - Unity can just start charging us a tax per install? - They can do this unilaterally? - They can charge whatever they want? - They can add install tracking to our game? - We have to trust their tracking?

Just about the worst possible timing i could imagine for planning this years Jingle JamπŸ˜‚
Unity’s pricing changes is going to kill charity bundles. No developer is going to want to give thousands of keys to bundles raising money for charities if it means they will cross the threshold for being charged by unity.

Haven't shared my own work in a while, but I've been loving the AI Twitch Streams recently. Thought I'd have a go at my own. Started this late last week, and will be streaming more soon. A very weird AI shopping network!
