Did you know this @NineOfNein? Very cool!
Unreal Programmers: Did you know you can VERY easily expose your C++ code to Python? The same magic that exposes functions to Blueprint ALSO exposes them to Python. TArray becomes a python list, TMaps become dicts. Let your tech artists automate all the things!

I'd be embarrassed if this happened in front of 5 people, let alone millions. Integrity and dignity were worryingly absent from the public exchange. Could you imagine Picard doing this over the ship intercom?

Today is my 10 year anniversary at Rare. We celebrated by bringing our son home from Birmingham Children's Hospital after he was admitted earlier in the week for severe infections and sepsis. I really know how to throw a party!

Look at these classics I managed to unearth and strip. So excited to build and paint them. #warhammer40k

Now that I watch a lot of Peppa Pig with my son I keep thinking Daddy Pig is the same guy who narrates in Dungeon Keeper. Keep waiting for him to say "it is pay day". #PeppaPig #Dungeonkeeper

Agreed. I've been doing TDD since WEEK TWO of learning how to program. Let me bore you with a story about junior developers - pre-junior developers - at a bootcamp. At @makersacademy, exactly eight years ago (gulp). 🧵
TDD is __NOT__ an "advanced skill." It's just a skill. Anybody can acquire that skill in a couple days. I really don't understand the love the QT has engendered. The final sentence is correct, but all skills require practice & discipline to hone them, even basic ones like TDD.

Two words come to mind; fucking bellend.
The PM says some events identified in Sue Gray's report were held for the purpose of "saying goodbye to valued colleagues". He adds that "some people will think it was wrong even to do that" but "I respectfully disagree." Live: trib.al/DkRY0kS 📺 Sky 501 and YouTube

There you go @kimintheredcoat
There are some people asking why cast Colin if they were going to cover him in makeup, the answer is simple, Matt Reeves was planing of having Penguin be like the Telltales version, the original plan was just give him the big nose.

Was so excited to watch #Brooklyn99 season 8 on E4 (recorded from yesterday) buuuuut why is it all almost a semitone higher in pitch!? I might have to watch an episode on Netflix just to hear the theme at the right pitch...

I've had this open for years, ever since my love for Vespers blossomed (@Caboose2311). Now going through the drinks trolley to see what to get rid of and I thought I'd try this on its own to see if it's worth keeping. Damn, it's amazing!
