Big privavy advocate and a freetard here. For the past 5 years, i have stayed far away from all the botnets, made a couple of public lectures about online tracking... but recently I just feel the strong urge to "be in a loop". Ive got enough of not knowing about my peers, family members, friends and colleagues
>inb4 just ask them for news in their life
doesnt work in real life, when we meet for a company lunch, everyone knows about our boss expecting a new baby, I am the only retard having to ask. Also, people dont want to retell everything.
So i want to comnect with them on Instagram, im ok with the decission, but man how do i sleep at night? how do i not feel like im betraying my beliefs?
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.
