It depends on their IQ
picrel looks like a fricking StarTrek villain.
Who is this ?
yes, see
>Dwarf Fortress
>Fable
some russian mongoloid
The greatest programmer to have ever touched the keyboard
>touched the keyboard
Sounds like a pervert to me.
>Who is this ?
Jon Blow, a permanently unhappy c**t who is right about a lot of things.
fair assessment tbqhwym8
All I want is to one day have someone say that about me
same, man. It's fricking infuriating to see that almost nobody has the brains to be on his level when it comes to something as simple as seeing the world for what it is.
>something as simple as seeing the world for what it is.
The guy is a ridiculous whiner - I saw a video of his, where he claimed nothing impressive has been done in engineering and technology in the last 40 years.
this is true though. we have smaller computers, that's nice, but they're still just 1980s tech. other fields don't even have that much to brag about.
Dumb take.
Yeah, the computers still have logic gates inside of them but the machinery needed to create them at 5nm scale are an engineering marvel.
sure, what the photolithography people did is insane, but it's just used to make smaller versions of things that were around in the 1980s. also, it's pretty much the only thing you can point to.
if you fell asleep in 1940 and woke up in 1980 your mind would actually explode. if you fell asleep in 1980 and woke up today you would be... kind of let down?
we don't even have some of the luxuries they had back then. does having an ipotato in everyone's pocket make up for not having the concorde? i dunno. seems like they did more harm than good if anything.
>it's pretty much the only thing you can point to.
Just off the top of my head:
>consumer level DNA testing
>generative AI and LLM
>highest building in the world
>LHC
>smartphones
>James Webb space telescope
>broadband internet
>most distant spacecraft landing
>cloud computing
I understand that whining is an ego-defence mechanism and when you haven't achieved anything yourself it's easy to cope that others aren't doing great either. My advice - pull your head out of your ass and get to work.
so rude. why can't i have a normal conversation with someone on Ganker for once? well then, i hope you get raped by a pack of Black folk when you're coming home from your very important job.
based. The israelite shills will get what they deserve when Christ comes back to exterminate all non-Aryans.
>Jon Blow, a permanently unhappy c**t who is right about a lot of things.
What correct opinions are making him unhappy these days?
apt
probably Windows sucking or something
He's a one-hit wonder.
the witness is unironically better than braid lmao. Although, as much as Ganker may hate my opinion on this, both are as good as any puzzle game can get without becoming a zachtronics game
>StarTrek villain
Kek I see the same. It's the combination of shirt and lighting.
also the hair and gaze. He looks like a well-written reoccurring star trek villain with understandable motivations
Autistic people are generally better people (human begins)
begins what?
human beginnings.
he's very obviously not autistic and you know this. boo.
no
his games suck
if you think the witness sucks you legitimately have awful taste
i lost some respect for him when he defended modern tech interviews
where did he do that?
https://vxtwitter.com/Jonathan_Blow/status/1732116098630275353
it's just trolling, not really a defense of anything.
>someone writes about a traumatic experience
>figure out the most hurtful possible reply and post it back
i.e. average anon behaviour. I didn't expect jblow to be into this kind of stuff. can see why you'd dislike him after this.
>failed a live coding job interview
>traumatic
Lol. Lmao, even.
thank you for illustrating
why is it that (mild) success in one field (bideo gayms) makes you think that youre now an expert in every CS field and you think you know better than everyone else.
just like casey mustard or whatever his name is.
video games are much more complex than 99% of applications to be fair
and?
Don't know which direction to move the goal posts?
a game developer would certainly think so. I don't really see it myself. if you gave me a choice between working on unreal and doing modern webdev, I'd pick unreal any fricking day of the week.
that's because we've purposefully made it more difficult than it needs to be. web development is full of "fake" problems
sure, it's all self-inflicted, but it doesn't help to say that. the problems are still there and have to be dealt with. gotta justify those $300k comp packages somehow.
maybe if you made the fricking game engine.
you cant tell me that any slav with access to unity and the asset store is any more competent than a monkey with a typwriter
>maybe if you made the fricking engine
johnny 'the seethe' blowtard did infact build the engine/environment for both his games so
these are the moronic redditor types roaming this board right now. you are scum of the earth.
to be fair he used to work on programming languages way before he released his first game Braid
that makes his CS opinions valuable and substantiated
his first game came out like 13 years ago, he was in the programming field for like 30
I don't see how it's related? jblow is a failed normalgay, not an autist
unpopular opinion but I think when people are so autistic that they're actually diagnosed with autism/aspergers they are usually extremely obnoxious
you'll get pros and cons with an attribute like that, if an autist is going after an autist audience then they'd probably do better than a general developer. an autist going after a general audience might not be able to understand what a general audience wants
idt any famous game developer you can think of is actually autistic just highly intelligent
>watch jon youtube clip
>ad blockers banned
>open link in private window
>watch video
>ok, let's see what the algorithm thinks of this guy's audience
>return to home page
no wonder he has trouble hiring through his social media
What dog has $2500 a day to give to a "power couple"
watch the video to find out
Yandere dev of programming languages
Autistic people are naturally better people, meaning they care about what they do, instead of just delivering minimum to get as much money for least work possible.
No, they just probably excel in certain tasks. I know a guy who works for Blizzard (or he did last time we spoke a year ago), and he's incredibly autistic about backend networking management. Last time we spoke he went on like a fifteen minute rant about how the dev teams working with CoD should kill themselves for using substandard UDP methods.

BASED
Normies copy flavor of the week meme shit and think they’re being creative.
Autists make weird ass shit that they’re obsessed with and think about every little meaningless detail and connection and contain SOVL.
>WHOOOOOOOOP
%3D%3D
Jon isn't autistic
If he was autistic he'd probably be a happier person because he wouldn't care about all the social issues he keeps whining about
being autistic doesn't really help with that, can even make it worse if you tend to analyze shit and overfixate over it
Why is every time some new eceleb gay starts popping up in my yt recommended, it invariably also starts appearing on Ganker.
youtube actively tries to uniformise people. if you've ever watched a programming related video, it will lump you into the same category as everyone else on this board and show you the same recommendations everyone else gets.
Noone is autistic. "Autism" was invented by zoomers.
Is that Blow? Braid was kind of fun, but he hasnt been very prolific.
>developers
yes
>game
fricking no
Frick no, autists are quite happy to play walking simulators for 500 hours smashing rocks, they havent got a fricking clue what boredom even means
The only person that will ever love him is his mother
Autistic is literally just a euphemism for "rude."
Just ask yourself what you think of a man who has portraits of himself made
portraits?
see
yes
autistic people are naturally better at everything except socializing
AND THEY GOT THIS GAME, RIGHT
FOR PEOPLE WHO SMOKE
>pic related
How?
He made only one good game.
The other one was a joke.
Then he decided to focus on vapor-ware unoriginal programming language with no interesting or differentiating features.
