Got live code reloading working for my Rust+SDL2+OpenGL project using github.com/rksm/hot-lib-r…
What if writing code was as simple as talking to your device? Watch my GPT-4 voice assistant: - take in a complex coding task - write the code - create a PR on my GitHub repo All I had to do was tell it what to do. This is the future of software.
Let's talk about radiotrophic fungi. I want to start with the most surprising fact about them: they don't just SURVIVE in high radiation environments, they grow at *FOUR TIMES* the rate they would in background radiation. Our best guess is they're "eating" radiation.
As tech leaders, we should make the most important problems to solve crystal clear to the team. Then see what they come up with, and course correct.
GPT4 will be out soon and will probably cause a similar economic shock to one from Covid. Instant distribution with nearly instant adoption and nearly instant productivity increase for hundreds of millions of knowledge workers. Brace yourselves, 2023 is coming
Ok this actually kinda funny
Let's review. Musk went on a bender and offered to buy Twitter at a price based on a weed meme. Then he agreed to a binding agreement to purchase it. Apparently he didn't fully grasp how binding it was. Then he tried to get out of the deal. Twitter sued to force him to ...

The last few months I have been working on a side project of integrating Rust into Unreal Engine 5, and today I finally released it 🥳 Here is the blog post: maikklein.github.io/unreal-rust-1/ The project link: github.com/MaikKlein/unre… @rustlang @rust_gamedev #UnrealEngine
I'm bailing on Legion before I add any more features. Switching to bevy_ecs to future-proof a bit more, and I've really loved working with it in the past. 🔴 304 more compile errors to deal with
Spent the last few evenings hacking on a new UI system - post finishing the incredible 'Hands on Rust' by @herberticus It's ECS driven, supports mouse/keyboard and adds multiline colored printing to my fork of bracket-lib. #rustlang #gamedev
Bevy 0.8 is out now! It features a new material system, camera-driven rendering, spotlights, visibility inheritance, custom PBR shaders, automatic mesh tangents, scene bundles, scripting / modding progress, reflection features, renderer performance, hierarchy commands, and more!
