It's very disappointing to see that #gameloop has an "inclusivity" pass but no information about what, if any, #covid precautions are being taken. (If there are covid precautions that I didn't see, lmk and I'll edit this)
I get it, everything is like this now, but the inclusivity pass feels like such an obviously token gesture! Just accept that you're risking long term health problems to talk about games, or don't and actually be proactive! https://www.eventbrite.com/e/boston-gameloop-2023-presented-by-bostonfig-tickets-649744863377
This #BostonFIG-related event is coming up this week: #GameLoop Boston is an unconference focused on #gamedev. They set aside passes specifically for marginalized and underrepresented folks, too. Check it out.

In my game-engine DEBUG build I'm filtering out longer frames-times caused by some breakpoint hitting during the frame step. This is done to prevent update-fast-forwards when the execution resumes.
I'm wondering whether this feature could come handly as a standard feature also in the RELEASE build during frame step "hiccups" due to the computer being busy doing something else.
Yes, the game would be crawling, but that would be a better option, IMO.
