Game timers: Issues and solutions
When I started game programming I ran into an issue common to most aspiring game developers: The naive infinite loop resulted in many problems (among then difficulties to record a game session properly) that led the game design to feature convoluted and confusing "fixes" ./>

Since I came up with a simple solution in my last engine (SHMUP: An iOS / Android / MacOS X / Windows Shoot'em Up) I wanted to share it here:/>

Maybe it will save a few hours to someone :) !/>

Oculus RIFT development
Virtual Reality headsets have been consistently disappointing for several decades. Three reasons come to mind in order to explain this state of things:
The hardware is expensive: The latest Sony HMZ-T1 is 799$.
The hardware is not good enough: The motion sensor, screen latency and screen limited Field of View are unable to provide a feeling of immersion.

Doom3 Source Code Review

Be A Donor
This is probably the proudest moment of my Computer Science career so far: On April 17th, 2012 the Government of Ontario released the Mobile Website I designed and implemented for the major part of 2011. Beadonor.ca allows you reinforce your decision to be an organ donor. I feel honored and privileged to have been able to contribute to such a noble cause.
Many people are unaware of it but to become an organ donor is all about making sure your relatives will follow your decision when we are gone. An organ donor card...and actually any piece of paper that you...
