In a normal world, this should be an immense scandal in Europe.
Le Monde has a long article describing the hellish life of Nicolas Guillou, a French judge at the ICC in The Hague, due to U.S. sanctions punishing him for authorizing arrest warrants against Netanyahu and Gallant for war crimes in Gaza.
Guillou's daily existence has been transformed into a Kafkaesque nightmare. He cannot: open or maintain accounts with Google, Amazon, Apple, or any US company; make hotel reservations (Expedia canceled his booking in France hours after he made it); conduct online commerce, since he can't know if the packaging is American; use any major credit card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex are all American); access normal banking services, even with non-American banks, as banks worldwide close sanctioned accounts; conduct virtually any financial transaction.
He describes it as being "economically banned across most of the planet," including in his own country, France, and where he works, the Netherlands.
That's the real shocking aspect of this: the Americans are:
- punishing a European citizen
- for doing his job in Europe
- applying laws Europe officially supports
- at an institution based in Europe
- that Europe helped create and fund
and Europe is not only doing essentially nothing to protect him, they're actively enforcing America's sanctions against their own citizen - European banks closing his accounts, European companies refusing him service, European institutions standing by while Washington destroys a European judge's life on European soil.
Again, in a normal world, European leaders and citizens should be absolutely outraged about this. But we've so normalized the hollowing out of European sovereignty that the sight of a European citizen being economically executed on European soil for upholding European law is treated, at best, as an unfortunate technical complication in transatlantic

What we found was one of the very worst examples of workplace abuse in the history of this industry. That may sound hyperbolic. I really don't think it is.

Wish you could edit Godot scenes in context of a bigger scene, like in Unity? I scripted a plugin which hijacks your viewports to do exactly that. You just gotta hit save though 🤷. Grab it here:

Low-poly + Gradient textures, or High-poly to low-poly + PBR textures?
I found the latter funnier to do, but the former is faster to do. A bit of a conemdrum as a solo dev!
What would you go for as an indie?

Godot's shader reference is ok but it's kind of intermixed with tutorials, code & notes. I was constantly scrolling up/down and found it a bit uncomfy. So I made an interactive reference with some combiners and filters to only show what you need...

Anybody positing that the problem with the games industry is that devs are too expensive is gonna get an instant block. For the cost of one EA CEO you could afford 213 devs making $120k apiece.

Creativity is like a houseplant, not an endless well. You need to seek out sunlight, water, and nutrients in art, shows, music, experiences, and more to tend to it. And just like plants it has its dormant and active periods and you may not seem improvement for some time.

What a shutdown feels like.
A shutdown is a response to sensory or emotional overload. Similar to a meltdown, but in this case, the person withdraws, reduces interaction, or stops responding as a self-protection mechanism.

After about 30hrs of work, I just finished a new move: a Trajectory-Based Wall-Jump! I finally got the endpoint to react to collisions without glitches, which I'm super happy about. I'm considering making a tutorial on this since there aren’t many on trajectory lines in Godot yet. #gamedev #Godot
