The news that Xbox was going to buy Bethesda caught me by surprise. And not just because of the sheer size of the $7.5bn acquisition. It surprised me because it hadn’t matched what Xbox had been telling us. I’d interviewed Xbox senior management several times over the proceeding 18 months, and when it came to acquisitions, they were talking about the need for games that would appeal to PC players, and gamers in countries like Southeast Asia, Japan, Europe, South America and so on.

It's no coincidence that it's been almost 3 months exactly since the last round of Microsoft gaming layoffs. The accounting numbers don't look so good this quarter and Microsoft must keep its shareholders happy, so they are looking to save money in some way, but they need to change those money numbers within a specific time frame

Hey all, I’m back with the first entry in an urban fantasy series I read recently for this week’s Bookish Wednesday. It’s “Silver Magi Book One” by D. Levesque. Plot: This starts off being a rather typical urban fantasy novel, though the fact that the main character Brandon is a 30-something-year-old man in a dead-end job is a plot point that feels a bit off compared to other things I’ve read.

Hi everyone, I’m working on implementing a chat feature for my app, which involves two screens. The first screen displays groups with recent chats, and clicking on a group shows the entire chat history. Each chat is represented by a node containing the sender’s name and the chat messages. These chat nodes are instantiated dynamically, and their size depends on the text content.
