Welcome to /gdg/ - Game Development General - Disapproving Casey Edition
This thread is intended for game and engine developers of all levels. Post projects you're working on. Share resources to add to the general is you have them. Since this is a new general, it needs a lot of help and tweaking. Making fun of unity and godot is allowed and encouraged.
>What about /agdg/? This thread is meant to be more about the programming behind games and engines, as well as learning game development.
In 1943, Dorothy Vaughan, a 32-year-old high school mathematics teacher, started a new job. She became a Grade P1 mathematician, helping with the wartime effort at Langley Memorial Aeronautical Laboratory. As the prime aircraft test facility of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), Langley was racing to make combat planes fly further, faster, on less fuel. To process the deluge of data from wind tunnels and other experiments, Langley needed number crunchers. It found them in “human computers”. These mathematicians were all women and, thanks to a recent executive order banning racial discrimination in defence hiring, many – like Vaughan – were black.
In 1949, Vaughan was made head of West Computing. Though it was segregated, Vaughan was nevertheless the first black woman to hold the position and the first black supervisor at NACA. She remained in the role until 1958, when the unit was shut down and NACA became NASA. On one hand, it was a victory for integration: Vaughan took a position working side-by-side with men and women of all races, programming the new electronic computers. On the other hand, Vaughan would never regain the rank she had held at West Computing, though she stayed with NASA until 1971, distinguishing herself as an expert FORTRAN programmer.

I'm 37. I was born in 84. In the 90s, I had a PC.. Amiga, (Motorola 68020 CPU, 7mhz, 2 Meg ram) Later, PC, pentium, 166mhz.. 16 Meg ram..
NO INTERNET CONNECTION!
hey, mom, can I phone my friend!? NO that costs a pennyba minute!!! Get on your bike, and go talk!!
When lonely, I didn't go on Facebook, or some other website... I went to kwik-save car park (England).. If no one was there, I sat and waited... But 90% of the time, some other kid was there...
Later, still 90s, I went to parties... No one had a phone, you had to socialise.... Or state the wall!!
Given those 2 options, it was impossible to not make friend's, some of which would be girls... Sex was eventually inevitable.
Because friend groups were like 20 at most, competition was always pretty low.
When I eventually got an internet connection, there were no Normie's... A internet bwas for losers.. No one admitted to it. Encarta was good enough.
We used to socialise in person!!!!
Tech ruined everything.
The Amish were right about everything EXCEPT the time period.
I'm Starting a new movement... Amish, except, 1994!!!!
You can have a PC... And games... But only connectivity is BBS.. 7mhz CPUs... 2 Meg ram...
Game s will be less realistic..... But you will have real physical friends, and girlfriend's.
