I think the poll needs to be in a fullscreen lightbox with auto-playing video ads in the background.
I think they should automatically kick it off on your 3D printer when you load the page.
Two copies, just to make sure you don't miss it.
/me hats off to another game dev
If you don't already read this sub-reddit:
Agreed.

SourceForge has been doing this shenanigans for years.
The simple solution is to move to github which doesn't have this crap.
> C++ written like C tends to be crap code
Total nonsense as you completely ignored context.
You've obviously never had to write high performance C++ code; guess what, we don't use OOP instead we use DOD (Data-Orientated-Design) which is far more a simpler C style then over-complicated C++ style. It also has the benefit of being simpler to read, easier to write, and performs far faster. Go figure!

Next, it appears you don't understand what Casey calls "Semantic Compression". There is nothing wrong with using C++ as a better C.

Gee, why do other professional game devs not bother with using STL, Exceptions, or RTTI ? Because TANSTAAFL / TINSTAAFL !

Lastly, I can tell you've never shipped any games where C++ obfuscates readability and performance.
> But C++ is designed to be used with "scoped objects"
Maybe in your mythical world, but rarely does C++ classes map perfectly to the real world.
I've been shipping games since 1995. Modern C++ is over-engineered.
As someone who briefly worked on a PS3 C++ compiler my colleagues would love to joke:
There are 2 problems with C++:
1. It's design, and
2. It's implementation.
On a more serious note when you even have committee members acknowledging they only use a sub-set of the language, then maybe, just maybe the language is too freaking complex.
Other committee members admit there are many problems with iostreams
C++ has become over-engineered.
If the C++ would deprecate crap such as
long long
and other verbosity then maybe the language would become simpler.

There's still a big killer lurking out in space that can't be easily avoided: radiation.
Except underground, which is the obvious solution but people are too fixated on making housing above the ground.
Except the article was talking about getting killed by the radiation exposure during the trip.
Presumably you aren't suggesting flying to Mars in a hobbit-hole. (Though if you could sneak a couple of tokes on Gandalf's pipe you might experience a good simulation.)
4300 years ago...
I guess the Sixth Dynasty of Old Kingdom Egypt didn't notice they got washed away, and went on building their pyramids like nothing had happened.
And Sargon must have clung to the side of the ark - or snuck on disguised as a dinosaur - so he could get back to building his empire as soon as the ground dried out.
I reckon the author is better at manipulating reality than he is at manipulating search results.
All boys so there was no hanky-panky.
