Re: Building Debug vs. Release
Falco, do not forget: in the web development world, the relationship is reversed. Everyone can and does code however they want, and they expect the browsers to adjust to them. Browsers are expected to work with malformed HTML and inconsistent JavaScript (filled with errors), but it is NEVER THE CODE...

Re: College.
... you can't pay off the debt. So you work the rest of your life serving burgers or maybe being a manager at mcdonalds, joining the military, or something like that! What would be your advice about this guys? Where did this idea come from? Software engineering is one of the best job markets right ...

Re: Prince of Persia Source
I love how the first commit on a fork was to remove the copy protection. XD

Re: Question?
You really do have the love the journey. You cannot be so focused on the end product that you just hate life all along the way until it is finished. As has been said already, if you are thrilled to solve lots of small problems, you are built for programming! If every single feature/bug/change drains...

Re: Passing full commands to Lua from C++
Here is what I use to execute arbitrary Lua scripts on the fly.
Code: Select all
const char* source = "println(\"Hallo!\")";
int status = luaL_loadstring(luaState, source);
if (status)
reportErrors();
else
status = lua_pcall(luaState, 0, LUA_MULTRET, 0);- Fri Mar 16, 2012 11:51 pm

Re: Diablo III Release Date
The game looks fine. It is really fun to play. I don't have lag issues when playing alone, but I'm still offended that a non-MMO requires me to be online all the time. Blizzard offsets it by avoiding a monthly fee, but it's still a technological joke. Can you imagine if Notepad required online acces...

Re: A possible glimpse into the future
That sounds awesome, but can easily be done with a projector. I think you're missing the point. It's not about whether we can accomplish technological activity X with current hardware; it's about the flexibility to do these things anyway. I would love it if I could get rid of all monitors/displays ...

Re: A possible glimpse into the future
Does it look fucking awesome? Yes. Would it be fun as hell to play with? Yes. Do I think it's practical for everyday classroom use. Absolutely not. We have enough technology destroying our everyday lives already. Facebook + mobile phones is worse than the plague. It's difficult to hold a conversati...

Re: resume review
I represent a later step in the hiring pipeline. (I'm the hiring fragment shader. Wakka wakka.) By the time engineers reach me, they've already been cleared for an interview. However, I launch my attack with the applicant's resume as my platform. ;) Everyone else has given good advice already. My ty...

Re: resume review
I'm not targeting anything specific on your resume; I just want to make a comment from the perspective of someone who actively participates in the hiring process. Make sure you can defend everything on your resume. There is nothing more obnoxious that dealing with applicants who put C++ on their res...
