Thanks for the alt text. I don't need it or anything but I'm glad it exists and it was a great read.

😅 I went a bit fast lol. It's been a while so I'm sure new stuff will come up (like Balatro was mentioned)

Just to start off, there was a thread about this some time ago.

If you organise a fair rotation I’m sure they’ll understand.

They were made for loving you. Normalize sleeping with plushies!

I vote Debunked in the name of education about cute critters.

Cute but false. These little fluffs are just scratching their armpits. Squirrels actually land like spread out pancakes. Here a biologist ruining your fun.

I mean what did y’all expect, the man’s been working for Coca-Cola Co. for the longest time.

It’s not a joke nor a myth.

wildly inaccurate animal illustrations is such a vibe

Nah I feel you. Grew up with the NES as well. I played for a few hours and then I bounced off it. I think I’ll play it some more at one point. I love that it exists, I love the idea of it, but playing it leaves me pretty neutral.

please stop making it make sense

There's a Wikipedia page about dril which is enlightening.

He is basically a product of Twitter that achieved notoriety through a form of humor tailored for the platform.

There's a lot to unpack here. By the time I feel like saying something about it, well it would be necroposting for sure. It touches on the fact that open source alternatives to exploitative social media mimic their counterpart rather than offer a genuinely different experience which is definitely something bothering me.

If you actually want to finish a game on your own, writing it in C or C++ is terrible advice imho. Just pick a friendly game engine and stand on their shoulders. Oh and for the love of God don't write your own physics engine. Also why are you even mentioning machine learning?

Anyways for a healthy dose of gamedev wisdom from a grey beard at the trenches, Jeff Vogel's blog is nice.

First rule for any kind of technologist is to ignore the gurus. Critical judgment is, well, critical. All the programming languages are fine, old and new. You're not supposed to marry one.

I don't understand how one would equate YAGNI with writing everything half assed. Is this actually an issue?

It's not the size that matters, it's your cooking.
