"Slippery Slop Argument"

Any argument of the form "This AI solution may be shit, but this is the worst it will ever be!"

I think I know some of those.

Saccurate: Simultaneously sad and accurate.

Lootonarrative Dissonance: When the game lets you break into a vault full of treasure and then only lets you take twelve gold coins.

I really need to buy those tickets before all the rendering people pick them up. ;)

I think there was more than that, but the mic issues were the most egregious. The mix also kinda fell apart after a few songs, which was weird and maybe a side effect of them trying to fix the mics. They sounded incredible until after Reptile, where the mic failed. After that something was off.

If you're at siggraph this year, they are playing in Vancouver on Sunday night.

It was very good, but man the sound issues...

The three laws of documentation:
1) Almost everyone wants better documentation.
2) Almost no one is willing to write it.
3) Absolutely nobody will to read it.

It is rather shocking that you would feel comfortable playing gotcha with something that has been used to excuse the murder of millions of people throughout history, Bart.
You can oppose the Israeli government without going quite this low.

Yeah, it's definitely a thing in London.

If you scroll down, you'll see it also says "You must enjoy git."

Art requires obsession. And apparently so do cat-blankets.

Allow me to just drop into this conversation to say "holy fucking shit!"

Big plusses are experience with writing rendering code at the API-level on PS5 and engine/systems programming on consoles in general, but we also care about experience with using the rendering APIs on other platforms, since we don't exist in a vacuum.

Oh that would be fun! Like the old days. :)

(And since I have the reach of an exceptionally short-armed baby on this thing, RTs are extremely welcome. Thanks!)

Senior Principal Programmer - PlayStationยฎ5 Rendering API United Kingdom, London

This holiday season, give yourself the gift of wondering whether you'd enjoy working on the Playstation graphics stack and making life better for graphics programmers, because we're hiring for our rendering APIs! job-boards.greenhouse.io/sonyinteract...

Second to last line would be better as "My whole post-chain is gone".
Damn it!

I want to dispatch like an animal
I want to fill you with my wavefronts
I want to cache flush like an animal
My coherency's gone
You get me closer to NaN

If those two ever come to the office, you need to let me know in advance and I'll come up with a pretense to be there. ;)
Fun fact: A lot of the PS5 API was written to NIN.

I have thoughts on the matter, but why engage with people I don't like. ;)
On the other hand: Congrats, man! Looks great, but also TRENT AND ATTICUS!!

I wonder what 2015 Jonathan would have to say to 2024 Jonathan... ;)

I got one where they had a jazz program, so I listened to an hour of Sinatra x Maschinenzimmer. Pretty good.
