Evening Reading

by Maarten Goldstein, Oct 04, 2000 6:24pm PDT

It's here! The reading, for the evening. It's so exciting every night.

- See, we ARE going to die. Well ok people in America are, the tsunami created by an eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcano would head to the US. Thanks d3.
- Looks like some people making the laws after finally noticing the Stupid Patents(tm) as two Democrates have created a bill against obvious patents, so that for example, a company like Amazon can't patent that silly 1-click shopping system. People will be able to protest against a patent too. Thanks sexninja!!!!.
- Ok freaky story of the day is the story of a baby that was removed from his mother's womb after she was murdered by another woman, who claimed that the baby was hers and who later commited suicide..the baby is still in a good condition though.
- Now here's a bad example. A teacher in California was fired after school officials found out he had his students make a plan for the assasination of someone they would like to kill as an assignment.





  • its like this

    ok say their is a puzzle and thats the game and its 100 pieces total

    so the ai guy makes 25 pieces, the game programer makes 25 pieces, the engine programmer makes 25 pieces, and the 2d and 3d model guys make 25 pieces. but none of the pieces fit. so 4 level designers come a long and they each make a large piece out of 25 pieces by figuring out how they fit together. so now we have 4 large pieces, each piece being 25 pieces. and then comes the game lead and he takes these 4 LARGE pieces and puts it together. but who is really the god here? the guy who put 4 pieces together? or the level designers who each put 25 pieces together. ? the lead keeps the whole project in line and makes the final puzzle look like it should but the level designers takes ALL the little pieces and makes sure they ALL FIT somewhere, and they work, making most of the puzzle themself.

    i meen thats not a perfect way of putting it but its pretty good

    i give more credit to the level designer for putting the most shit together for the player to play in. i may be biased but thats what i think.
