As a guy with almost zero coding knowledge and/or experience how do I unironically into indie game development? I have a pretty solid idea for the next best indie game. I'm looking to create a linear pseudo open world rpg experience with a engine similar to Telltale where your choices kinda matter but not really, I also want to possibly incorporate multipleplayer into the campaign. Any advice is appreciated.

Are you an idea guy?

Nope. The developed world is just going to continue to slide into the turd world. We are less than five years away from 80 of tech jobs being replaced by garbage AI. The stage was set when we accepted call centers in India and the Philippines. Now Indian truck drivers are slaughtering Americans on their highways because Indian truck drivers drive like Indians!

Languages are not JIT or interpreted or compiled, language IMPLEMENTATIONS are.

I prefer to compile ahead of time to machine code. But I think the JVM JIT is the most advanced JIT available.

Apparently JIT can perform better optimizations, because it learns about program's usage patterns. You cannot do that at compile time, only at runtime.

That era certainly promoted long dedicated sessions at designated times over the constant short sporadic sessions spread through the day that people have today, overall time spent per week is probably a lot more now but it's spread in a way that's harder to really realize

Also, I was a teenager so I was only allowed a few hours a day after school. I would often wake up and get online while everyone was asleep. I also had arguments with my sister because we only had one phone line and she wanted to talk on the phone.
It absolutely was a different era.

Realistically, I think 90 minutes a day of Internet actually is too much, assuming that this is solely time dedicated to being online and not just seated at a computer. My work is remote and requires me to access databases, but I'd say 50% of each job is done outside of my browser. I've rarely needed to put in a full workday but the few times I did, I was still mainly typing up documents and scanning through shit I already had backups of.

And suppose that you're just using the Internet for general purposes like reading news, an hour and a half is still a lot. I used to try to read the entire physical newspaper every morning and it would take me just under two hours to go cover to cover, and that includes the redundant stories they shove in to fill column space. When I stopped receiving the paper and moved online, I had to put in effort to need more than a half-hour to get up to date on everything, because of how truncated online articles tend to be.

There's the elephant in the room of talking to people and playing videogames but like I said, those don't necessarily rely on you being constantly connected. I can send a message to someone, go offline for an hour and then pop briefly back online to do a followup. Obviously on an IM client this would look weird but everybody understands that you aren't beholden to their time or attention. And with games, if you're in the trap that is competitive ranked stuff or have a group who consistently plays whatever, your life is probably healthy enough you don't have to worry about spending too much time online.

Anyways my point is you don't need the Internet as much as you think you do.

not him but it's usually a good idea, unless you're using nix/guix. having it on a separate disk is nice too so you can just symlink it on a new install. it's the ideal way to go since it saves time pulling config files out and replacing them after.

Dors anyone have a nm790 without a heatsink? I bought two of them but they're underneath my gpus, so I got some strips of metal for them. But the controller isn't as tall as the memory, so in order for the pad to contact it, the whole pcb bends by a degree or two.

>CAD developers and animators basically use the keyboard and mouse the same way gamers do
It's not a bad point, but there's a large difference which is that there is never a moment during use of CAD where failing to do something 5ms faster than your opponent causes you to fail rather than succeed. So while in some sense you can usefully compare CAD to a video game, it's completely ridiculous to suggest that a hall effect keyboard will be as beneficial to a CAD user as it is to a serious competitive gamer.
