  • Has Golang fizzled? It has struck me as too primitive, but basically on the right track.

    My biggest issue with Golang by far is the close tie to Google. They are not our friendly innovator, time and time again they make decisions that will help them earn more ad money, and nothing else. And they have a lobg history of releasing something and then never fix the issues with it, and then more or less abandon it.

    Other than that there are afaik some other issues with go, I’m not an expert but from what I hear the GC is quite aggressive and you can’t tell it to run when you want. Doing something time sensitive? Well, bad luck. GC time!








  • Yes, but it is also very different. I have a VR headset and use it every now and then. But compared to “normal” gaming it is quite different.

    When playing a non-VR game you can just minimize the game and check stuff between rounds/matches/when you pause/etc. With VR I feel like you have to be there all the time, and the headsets are still heavy so you can’t play as long. Not to mention you are usually standing.

    I like VR and think it will be good eventually, but it is not there yet. It is 100% playable as it is, but the overall tech is not quite there yet.





  • This is just gambling, betting that you’ll cash out before everyone else, but after the price has run up.

    Even worse, it is unregulated gambling. In normal gambling there are rules. Yes, the house will always win in the long run as the odds are in their favor, but the game is set up in a transparent way and doesn’t change half way through.

    Also the original idea of cryptocurrency was never speculation and cashing out. But sadly it has turned into that in 99% of the time.
