Games@lemmy.world•Rebellion CEO seems kind of awed by major studios making massive videogames: 'How do you organize a game that has 2,000 people working on it?'English
28·2 years agoUsed to work at Rebellion on their IT team. Genuinely a fantastic place to work and the owners seemed to always be super chill. Had a full suit of armour in one of their offices and so many weapons lying around (likely blunt replicas but still really cool).
I wasn’t on the game dev team so can’t speak for them but I was personally never pushed to work harder and often explicitly told to take breaks.
We also used to have large Unreal Tournament matches at lunch.
I have some amazing news in that case!

Climate@slrpnk.net•UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer writes op-ed against net zero1·2 years agoI don’t think I’ve ever thought of chicken that way… Questioning if I even understand it at all 😂
But yes, you’re right, the whole thing requires everyone to contribute equally for it all to work properly but, since everyone can momentarily benefit more by not, and politics is painfully shortsighted, they won’t do the right thing.

Climate@slrpnk.net•UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer writes op-ed against net zero2·2 years agoIsn’t it less of a game of a chicken and closer to a global Prisoners Dilemma? The best option for everyone is for everyone to do the thing, the best option for individuals is to not do the thing but the worst thing for everyone is to not do the thing?

Climate@slrpnk.net•UK Labour to commit almost £22bn to fund carbon capture and storage projects7·2 years agoI love how part of their reasoning is to somehow help with our dependence on the whims of the international oil and gas markets, as if this in any way addresses that. Unlike, you know, £22bn worth of wind, solar, tidal or nuclear energy might?

Technology@lemmy.world•Massive E-Learning Platform Udemy Gave Teachers a Gen AI 'Opt-Out Window'. It's Already Over.English
171·2 years agoThank you for the reminder to delete my Udemy account!
Gen-AI has 0 place being used in a learning setting, especially one people are explicitly paying for themselves. Sure, let’s all learn from the Bullshit Machine.


They have built their own index with Ecosia and are working towards fully using that but currently I believe they use a mix.
Making your own index is difficult and expensive. They’re doing the work and I think we should support them in that.
