I’m happy to announce the release of a new open source 3D physics engine called Box3D. I’ve been working on this project for a few years now, but it represents over 20 years of experience writing physics engines for games. Read more here: box2d.org/posts/2026/0...

Discourse deliberately steers into the most useless intractable not-even-wrong framing that can be generated for any given issue. The meme doesn’t want the problem solved. If the problem were solved, people would stop propagating the meme. The meme wants to propagate.

“Europe needs air conditioning” is true, but it also feels like a talking point explicitly constructed so that people don’t have to pay attention to the effects of rapid climate change.

It’s too bad it will take them 20 years to also value their junior engineers when all their most experienced engineers retire with nobody to replace them.

Ford has rehired hundreds of senior engineers after replacing them with AI backfired and has cost the company billions of dollars. AI adoption is blamed for Ford being the most recalled automaker in the U.S. with 51 recalls covering over 11 million vehicles in the first half of 2026 alone.

The only way for books to survive is for everyone to write them in universally formatted paragraphs so readers can collect and order the paragraphs themselves. Imagine paying $5 “but then he woke up. It was all just a bad dream!” so that you can fix the ending of any story.

My biggest issue with Unreal ditching Blueprints isn't about if Blueprints is good or not. Unreal already removed one scripting system (UnrealScript) and replaced it with Blueprints claiming it was a huge improvement, etc. etc. Now they are going back to just text scripting with nothing visual?

I have been using Godot since 3.0 and been continually impressed with how the engine has been maintained and improved, I don't see any reason to change my mind now. I trust them to keep doing a good job

Rémi Verschelde@akien.bsky.social · last mo.

I see some concerns raised about Godot's policy on contributions using AI. TL;DR: Godot isn't vibe-coded. As a whole, the Godot foundation and maintainers are fairly critical of AI usage, and don't make nor accept vibe-coded contributions. Godot doesn't include AI features nor intends to add any.

Godot's current policy on AI-assisted contributions reads like this: "The use of AI to contribute to Godot is discouraged, and contributions made entirely by AI are prohibited. We acknowledge that AI can be useful, but we are convinced that human effort results in better and more relevant contributions. If you do use AI, we expect that you put in effort to proofread and improve anything it generates, and that you disclose what you used AI for. As maintainers spend significant time reviewing your code, please make sure that the code you submit is well-tested and functional. Please be respectful of their time and only submit something you have put thought and effort into."

Seeing a lot of my least favorite social media here on BlueSky lately: An ignorant person talking-down to those with actual skills, experience and accomplishments by repeating idiotic internet memes I left twitter to get away from these people.

Did you know that any language can be bound to control the Godot game engine? Here's a quick test setup with minc running the game loop, drawing a mc test cube. All scripted in minc, no godot editor used. Running on macOS.

Quote with a little-known game you would recommend. INFRA: You're an engineer tasked with fixing failing infrastructure around the city while uncovering buried secrets. Bring machines and pumps back online before the city crumbles around you.

Recently I ran across a novice artist who was trying to pass off AI slop as their own hand-drawn work. Just don’t. We can all tell. Your integrity and vision are worth more than a shortcut. If you aren’t happy with your own ability, put the time in to get better.

Hugely sad. We've lost John Blanche. It's hard to know where to begin. He set fire to a generation's imagination, and those fires show no sign of stopping burning. His work very much illuminated the darkness.

Burgle Supply Company - Burgle Supply Company Version 1.0 is OUT NOW! - Steam News

After a half year in Early Access, Burgle Supply Company is at 1.0

ANNNNNNNND Burgle Supply Company (Good Boy) is now out. Any RTs/Shares/helping to spread the word is appreciated. It's the silliest game made by a studio with a very silly catalog of things.

Steam page for Burgle Supply Company, which is probably the best game about robbing homes while mutant dogs chase you around ever made but I cant verify that.
