Does anyone remember that guy posting about how Havok and other physics middleware have these timestep bugs? here and here. He was also complaining about Gaffer's article on timesteps. Anyway according to Gaffer he has apparently been posting everywhere about how there's this conspiracy going on with timesteps: http://gafferongames.wordpress.com/2008/10/20/fix-your-timestep-crazy-internet-stalker/ Gaffer also rebuts the guy's arguments. Crazy stuff :D Sam

The conspiracy of timesteps.

The Timestep agents try to shut him down, but you guys just can't handle the truth. I bet you're one of them!

You, sir, are clearly withholding information. I demand that the truth be known to the public! You are done fooling us! The Timestep conspirancy is revealed, the people demand to know! The truth is out there and there's nothing you can do to stop it!

Also, can I talk to your manager??!!!!

lol... for a bunch of guys that are professional software developers, I'm surprised that you guys are that surprised that a software developer would really be that crazy.

Here at work, we are basically the freak show of the company. Me and one or two other devs excluded of course.... I'm almost positive half of these developers have bodies under their basement, let alone are stalking people via internet... [lol]. Half the days I wake up wondering which one of the guys on my developer team will be on the front page of the news paper...

PS, I hope jpetrie and Promit didn't get in trouble with their manager too bad... [lol]... holy shit..
