- Comment on People are playing fewer games and new releases are "struggling", say Ubisoft UK, warning of falling revenues 1 week ago:
Ubisofts full releases this year:
- AC: Shadows
- Just Dance 2026
- Anno 117

- Comment on A young computer scientist and two colleagues show that searches within data structures called hash tables can be much faster than previously deemed possible. 9 months ago:

- Comment on Mazda's $10 Subscription For Remote Start Sparks Backlash After Killing Open Source Option 1 year ago:
Yeah the problem is Mazda was abusing the DMCA instead of setting up their API properly. The API should fail if you try to use it without a subscription. It seems like this check was done elsewhere, which is just bad design. And then they used the legal system to cover it up.
- Comment on This prototype turns your car’s windshield into a giant AR display 1 year ago:
HUDs are something I thought would be gimmicky but it’s actually really useful. Eg. for navigation it can show you where/when your next turn is without having to take your eyes off the road. It works really well in my experience.

- Comment on US gov’t announces arrest of former Google engineer for alleged AI trade secret theft 1 year ago:
Wait… for $14,800 a month? $180k / year? That’s like a lower salary at Google already? You’d think he’d ask for a lot more for doing something illegal…
