Unity is betting big on VFX Virtual Production, what a huge step this is. Unreal is of course ahead in this space, with major productions like Mandalorian to back it up. This is very interesting and exciting to see what will happen.
Weta is so beloved in the industry, and has so much expertise, hope nothing is lost in this transition.

Adult humour, not sure how hackernews will like it. But this sketch tries to touch (in a sarcastic way) some of struggles of going back to office. I think they did a great job, and raise some thoughts/discussion around new ways of working
It mentions and links to Haiku in the wiki as Hello done consenquently. Does this means Hello is the concept and Haiku the implementation? Should I install and try Haiku instead https://www.haiku-os.org/
Years ago, Treehouse had a refrenshingly easy to grasp, with great content, curriculum around web technologies. The tutors were super friendly and enthusiastic while retaining a good technical level (for the target) - I really praise their introductory courses. Shame to hear this, definitely some better communication was needed, but IMHO personal life details only take the real failures out of focus - business and people involved deserved much better out of the whole process.
Very personal opinion here: Apple innovated as hell, pure lab of goodness and years and years ahead of any other OS. Sad reality is that they are now a 100 billion mega megacorp, user is second in the money dance. I don’t see them as innovative, freedom (not as in free beer) means a lot and they don’t contribute to it at all, if anything even more closed ecossystem - long gone the days of OpenDarwin. Most people I know switched back to Windows for better drivers support. UX is still second to none in Apple, but at what cost? In the end, you want to press a button to turn on the system and get things done. I think there’s more than just Apple nowadays - but unique strengths in different contexts for sure
This is so true! Watching the new york philharmonic musical experiences in the subway, or yugop mono*crafts or v2 playing with physics, Hillman Curtis God is in the details, or the never ending games revolution (globulus, get the glass some of my favourites). Every website was a new experience to be discovered.
There were multiple attempts to bring Flash runtime back using webassembly (faster, secure), maybe we’ll see Flash content yet again… or maybe we don’t need it, but it was definitely a fun era.
It looks like a good drop-in replacement for docker?
“ Docker extracted its container runtime out into a new project, containerd. This includes Docker’s functionality for executing containers, handling low-level storage and managing image transfers. Containerd was donated to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) in order to provide the container community with a basis for creating new container solutions.”
My take from the article is to not sacrifice good engineering principles (e.g. code quality, tests, scalability, performance...) and re-scope, adjust number of feautures, etc when needed. That’s just the nature of engineering. As Product owners get more experienced (contextually) and better communicate with Engineers, scopes get better and sprints are more accurate.
Can sprints be used as highger level structure grouping pieces of work together, without any hard deadline involved? I think that happens in some organisations, with no or soft deadlines.
This is really great,loving the whole code catalog and podcast.
Codeflow looks interesting, but is mislisted as open source in the catalog[1] although private on github, and there’s a new sign up for beta option on their page - I believe it’s no longer open source
As an alternative I've been using Ecosia, it seems to donate 80% or more of its profits to planting trees where they are needed most (from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecosia)
It seems to me front end developer and backend developer still works, although front end developer role evolved, can’t see a need for this extra long names.
Yes front end developers do more, than when the web was just html and tables, but that’s just evolution.
You want to focus on the UI only, UI developer fits. With complexity increasing, web developer title doesn’t make sense as it is too generic.
But backend, being it in java or node is a backend. I don’t see the need for this new categorisations.
I think the question arises from Fullstack term usage?
fullstack front end and fullstack backend has been thrown around in job interviews, so fullstack alone without context doesn’t make sense: I don’t think it ever did.
