Visual Studio 2019 v16.8 Preview 3.2 is bringing some significant link time improvements. How significant? How about 27.9x faster. Check out what The Coalition Studio accomplished with #Gears5: msft.it/6017py8r5

This is an important thing to do when youโ€™re in a position of privilege or seniority. In normalizes the fact that people make mistakes and makes space for others to safely admit the same.

So the SIGGRAPH archives appear to have gotten slightly less paywalled recently, which means *anyone* can now watch our talk on the Technical Art of Sea of Thieves and learn the secrets of gorgeous water tech :) dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/32โ€ฆ

I canโ€™t find words anywhere significant enough to express the anger and sadness Iโ€™m feeling reading game dev Twitter today, so instead I just want to send love and support to all the victims of a toxic culture. We must all do better. I stand with #ActiBlizzWalkout.

We at Double Fine stand in solidarity with the workers involved in todayโ€™s #ActBlizzWalkout. No one should feel unsafe or unfairly treated in the workplace. Studios should strive to create an environment where everyone is treated with fairness and empathy.

I just came out of a powerful discussion with Xbox Women in Gaming, from whom I've learned so much over the years. I want to share my personal support for everyone who has experienced sexual harassment or discrimination. I see you. I stand with you.

Think your crew would look more impressive with some extra fur or feathers on board? Well, purchase a pet or pet accessory from the Pirate Emporium this weekend, before 11:59pm BST August 1st, and you'll be helping your image and Twycross Zoo's conservation work too. Marvellous!

Alright, so inspired by Nate Purkeypile: Solo Indie Dev๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿน๐Ÿ”ฅ-๐ŸŽ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐ŸŽธ-๐Ÿ”ช's bee post yesterday, here is one of my favorite bits of Skyrim oral history - the myth of the treasure fox. I've told this story before in talks/etc, but I don't think I've shared it with twitter. Here goes.
