Good morning! Don’t forget to take a nice, relaxing bath every now and then!
The Stochastic Game
Ramblings of General Geekery
“Removing Jeff Bezos From My Bed”: the internet of shitty things never ceases to amaze me.
Did you think you couldn’t improve stairs? Well, you’d be wrong.
Here is The Longest Joke In The World! And yes, I read it. In multiple sittings over a whole day. It made me chuckle. It’s not the funniest joke in the world, after all. Just the longest!
Interesting to see inter-provincial trade barriers being in the news so much lately. This seems like the kind of stuff our government should have fixed back in the 1970s or something.
I’m all for more trains across Canada, so a Quebec City/Toronto high-speed rail would be GREAT (even though I’m on the other side of the continent), but I agree with some of this opinion piece. The timing and wording seems hypocritical, and how that private consortium relates to VIA Rail smells like trouble.
“B.C. trying to recruit U.S. doctors amid Trump health-care uncertainties” : our provincial government is trying to do something useful and clever! More of this please!
UE5 Gameplay Cameras: Node Evaluators
This is the fifth article in my GPC developer diary. Gameplay Cameras (GPC) is a camera system for UE5 that started shipping with the engine as part of version 5.5, but is still in its “experimental” phase. We plan to have it in “beta” with 5.6, and “production ready” with 5.7 or 5.8 depending on how things go.
There was no article last week since it was Family Day here in British Columbia, but this week I’ll go back to one of the very first decisions I had to make, which was the basic design for camera nodes.
The old Fighting Fantasy books are coming back to North America! Steve Jackson publishing Steve Jackson! The Kickstarter is under way over here.
Another evidence of how pissed Canadians are at the US: a 40% decline in British Columbians going into Washington state over the past two months. That final quote from the Mayor of Blaine is so weaksauce: don’t make us feel welcome, show us that you’re fighting this shit.
