I owe you this. I owe this to the team. I owe it to those who have read and believed in us. We're a badass team and you'll hopefully have seen some of what we can do. Those screenshots alone should blow your minds. This is how it is. When your life falls Read More...

Yeah, I'm back. First, let's do the apologies. Apart from what's stored on this site - and hence, not in my home - I have no code, no documentation, no designs, no art. This was caused by an unfortunate incident involving hell not having such fury, and Read More...

Although in all fairness, I've kind of wanted to be lately. Brief rundown: 1. Moved mother out of ancestral home. 2. Completed first Triathlon. 3. Seperated from wife. 4. Started new permie job. Anyway, #3 should be done with by tomorrow night and an Read More...

You probably neither knew or cared, but last night another Foot and Mouth Disease outbreak was announced in England. Even now, all farms are being sealed off, all movement of livestock is a criminal offence until restrictions are lifted. All the animals Read More...

I was just talking to somebody who used to be my friend. A long time ago. We fell out, over the concept of Skinner boxes. See, I had design ideas. He had design ideas. I'm a programmer. He isn't. This gives me balance of power over who gets their ideas Read More...

I'm spending today writing a physical design spec document because i have Blanked. And it'll last all day, i know from experience. Today, my own code means nothing to me. It might as well be written in Sumerian stick-writing and describe the inner workings Read More...

So yeah, I listen to music while coding, obviously. A few weeks ago, I was attempting to identify a baseline to a dreadful song - Torn by Natalie Imbruglia, actually - and noted that it shared a great deal in common with the main riff some some cheesy Read More...

I knew using my real name would buy me trouble. See, two days per month, i lecture in AI at a local university. And now, one of my colleagues has found this blog. Hi Stuart. That's just about bearable, but if the students come across rants like this one Read More...

Not that i needed reminding this time . There's a really great article over at Terra Nova concerning real reactions to virtual communities and events. And the discussion was equally interesting. But that, as with all good things, came to an end when it Read More...

But seriously, dude, if you're not a spambot, then don't try to sign up with a *mail.ru address because i delete all of those on principle. Remember. I'm Rich Bryant and this is edgecase.net. My email address is initial + surname @ domain. If you're a Read More...

Wikipedia is rubbish, just like the rest of "Web 2.0" and the alleged wisdom of crowds was never so clearly demonstrated as an utter fallacy (except in Second Life, where it's demonstrated as an animated phallus). That's twice i've been wiki'd and both Read More...

Naming first, then. Why am i using my own name instead of "Cael"? Because it's something i should have done long ago. When we first started this project, our friend Richard R was in charge, so i stuck with "Cael" to make life a little easier and avoid Read More...

I don't have the 'flu. I am not susceptible to minor ailments and only get sick very rarely. So i have Man-'flu. This is a virulent and deadly form of the 'flu virus which only men get and the reason why women think we whine about what she thought was "only a cold". In my case, i suspect the forthcoming apocalypse. The moon on Saturday was apparently blood-red (don't ask me, i'm colour blind, i thought it was grey) due to a full lunar eclipse. Read More...

You have no idea how hard it is for me to write that. No, really. There are many reasons why professional developers dislike Microsoft. Longstanding reasons with good evidence. But frankly, right now, i hope they end up owning the gaming market the way Read More...

I won't be at GDC this year. This is a great shame because there's so many people i'd love the opportunity to meet, not least Steven Davis , Scott Jennings , Matt Mihaly , maybe if it didn't bother his introversion too much i could finally buy that lunch Read More...
