You’re ironically perpetuating a myth that cast iron needs special care. You can clean cast iron with soap just like anything else. You just have to make sure it isn’t wet for extended periods of time

I’ll definitely keep this in mind if I end up going back to the industry. Thanks!
Correct me if I am wrong, but this doesn’t seem to work for devkits? Like if I want to run something on a PS4 devkit, I can’t use parsec for that, can I?
Maybe the tools have changed since last I worked in the industry (or maybe we weren’t good at using all the features), but I never saw that anyone had remote access to the devkits. I could remote into my workstation, but it surely was not the best way to work.
Not every dev is compiling code to run on a devkit
Depends on the studio. There will be a lead platform, and if that platform is a console, then a majority will run on a devkit.
surely they are not running a new build every day.
In the studio I worked in, we ran new builds almost twice a day. That doesn’t include the iterative changes you make if you are a programmer. If you don’t run new builds contantly, that means you aren’t doing any actual work if you are on the engineering side. If you are in art you might not really screw around with too many builds. If you are a director or producer, you might not either if you’re bad at your job.
I actually don’t like their games. I am speaking as someone who used to work for a AAA, both before and during COVID shelter in place
Tbh, game studios often require special equipment such as dev kits and high-end PCs for development. It makes sense that they might not want to send this equipment home, especially if it is an unreleased console"s dev kit. Game studios honestly seem more justified in not having WFH
Cool, so you’ve outed yourself as someone not 100% against racial slurs. If Nintendo was a black-owned company, would you have done the same?
FYI, leetcode is not a “learn to code” website it is a “practice problems that will be asked at tech interviews” site. A lot of these problems are inspired by (or maybe are even literally from) interviews at “top companies” like Google, Facebook, etc. They are almost completely algorithmic or data structure problems, i.e. “unrelated to your actual work” (well, most of your actual work for most people).
Awesome, so Japanese settings will soon be oversaturated in games. We already got Sekiro, Ghost of Tsushima (and will presumably get a sequel), and whatever that other Monster Hunter style game was. We will also be getting an Assassin’s Creed in Japan. Sounds like Santa Monica doesn’t know what to do so they are following trends. Really don’t think Kratos belongs in Japan.
Wouldn’t you argue that putting hard restrictions would have the benefit of shrinkjng your recruitment team? To be clear, I’m coming from an extremely anecdotal point of view, but to me it seems like tech is full of imposters jumping from job to job, playing up their experience. Recruiters cannot spot these people, because they know all the jargon despite having none of the skills. This is why these technical interviews exist, but now those are even being gamed by people by studying leetcode. I’d be really curious what a high quality tech recruiter does vs the average.
We do require a BS in computer science
The only scenarios where I’d think I wouldn’t require one are
#1 and #2 are indicative of other problems in your company. I get that you can be a good dev without a degree, but from an employer perspective, it seems like an easy way to save time and money on hiring. I am convinced that a lot of money is wasted on recruiters who throw everyone under the sun into the hiring process just so they can justify their existence.
The tech layoffs are not related to industry replacing those jobs with AI. Tech overhired and now they are adjusting. Simple as that.
donkey kong on n64 had you what go collect bananas or something? is that fun?
I don’t know what caused people to all of a sudden complain about this game (maybe a dunkey video?). This game is still fun by modern standards regrdless of whether you 100% it or not
Build your own locally hosted cloud!
This is the hard part to sell people. I feel like for self-hosting to become popular, there would need to be a “plug ‘n’ play” device that essentially has everything you need to set up a small server on your home network. If you could set up a home server as easily as you can set up a Google Home device, that would be amazing.
Does it execute both, or does it execute the branch that is more likely to be valid? Branch prediction seems like it’d be way more performant than executing both branches until the result of the branch condition is available. If you think about it, what you’re proposing will cause the CPU to always execute instructions that are not meant to be executed when confronted with a branch whereas branch prediction will only execute these “useless” instructions in the unlikely scenario where the prediction is incorrect.
Also if you’re looking to make a job out of it, Python will lead you to job opportunities that are imo much more satisfying than JS.
I always prescribe learning Python over basically any other language (unless you’re gonna start doing some real low-level computating). It’s a much more relevant and popular language. C# isn’t irrelevant, you’ll just see Python used way more often. Python will also compliment JS much more.
According to a friend of mine that is an employee, he shows up every now and then to throw a fit and go on firing-sprees.
So you only play indie games? Because that’s basically the only way you avoid “companies doing lousy stuff.”
