I promised this years ago and I finally took the plunge. Svelto.Tasks 2.0 is out!
Why did I do it?
- I wasn't happy with .Net tasks for games
- It has a ton of extra features, including simplify synchronization for massive parallelism
Are unreal engineers expected to know how to use gasp or is it something for other members of the staff? Because really if that's what is expected I prefer to open a pizzeria

In Britain, if you earn £2,000 a month after tax with this budget:
- No Netflix.
- £75 a week on food.
- No eating out.
- Renting a one or two-bedroom flat.
- No holidays.
Your monthly outgoings:
- £800 rent.
- £250 council tax and gas/electricity.
- £325 food.
- £50 household items and clothes.
- £200 car payments, insurance and MOT.
- £200 fuel.
- £50 phone and internet.
That’s £1,875 gone.
You’re saving just £125 a month.
This is how you create a generation of lifelong renters.
It's over for UK.

Qwen 3.8 27B is actually the most brilliant retarded model that I have ever used. 😅
It spends about 2/4 of its reasoning trace coming up with the most retarded ideas known to man, and then an additional 1/4 convincing itself that its ideas are completely retarded.
It then manages, from the ashes of retardation, to arise towards the cleanest, most efficient, and bug-free implementation of any open-weight model of this size.
It kinda works like American politics, in a way?!

BREAKING: $AMZN crashed -12% on weaker than expected Q3 earnings.
Over $300,000,000,000 wiped out from Amazon's market cap in after-hours trading.
Amazon just lost more in market value in a few minutes than it made in revenue all quarter.
People don't understand that while I used for 15 years unity, I barely know how to use the editor. I am an engineer and I work with code, if being unreal engineer means to need to know the editor, I say fuck It.
ok but I have seen these demos in demo parties in 2002
🚨 Microsoft just unveiled what it calls the BIGGEST DirectX Raytracing upgrade since DXR launched in 2018. 🤯
NVIDIA, AMD AND Intel GPUs are supported.
• New DXR Clustered Geometry
• New Partitioned TLAS (PTLAS)
• GPU-driven indirect acceleration structure builds
• Designed for MUCH more efficient highly detailed + dynamic RT scenes
• Reduces the need to constantly rebuild massive acceleration structures
• AMD RX 9000 supported
• Intel Arc B-Series + supported Core Ultra graphics
• ALL NVIDIA RTX GPUs supported
• Available through DirectX Agility SDK 1.722 Preview
Microsoft’s RX 9070 tech demo went from 1.8 FPS ➡️ 84 FPS while acceleration-structure memory dropped from ~12.7GB ➡️ just 774MB.
IMPORTANT: That’s a specialized DXR benchmark, NOT a claim that games are suddenly getting 47X more FPS.
But this could give developers much more headroom for complex ray-traced worlds.
makes sense, he has such a punchable face.
