Oh, shit… yah. Everyone can relax then. Rule of 3.

Ozzy and hulk hogan

Rule of 3s

You certainly want look_at.

I use c# for scripting so I’m not super familiar with the gdscript nomenclature but it looks like youre not referring to beacon properly.

Keep in mind look_at uses global coords. You probably want to be looking at the globalposition of beacon. This might be why you find yourself looking where you don’t expect. “Position” is relative a nodes parent node. Globalposition is absolute position in worldspace

My PhD supervisor insisted it was “Law-tex”

Oof. You’re really getting shit on here, and without a lot of context or nuance.

The phrase “Cold Approach” is what is rastling the jammies. It smells like “Pick up artist” bullshit. People can smell it from a mile away, and it reeks. No advice could solve that, as long as that’s your mentality.

If you can really internalize that women aren’t objects (most men fail this. Most men who think they don’t still do) then no question about doing anything to a woman is even internally conceptualized as being to a woman, it’s just to a person.

The right question is “how can I start a conversation with someone I don’t know?”

But since you’ve already tipped your hand that your goals are romantic initiation… Reset those goals.

The only “wrong” way to start something is to not actually start.

Some people might toss you at whatever pet interest they have in the broad skillset which is gamedev. Tell you it’s fundamental.

I won’t.

Take The Frizz approach. Take chances, make mistakes, get messy!

You can download a FOSS game engine RIGHT NOW (Godot). Start small. Fuck with it until your questions become specific. Once you know what you don’t know, but need to know, that’s what you should learn.

I have completely agreed to the terms of 500 INTERNAL SERVER ERROR.

Intended to be read out loud specifically for YOUR dog:

A life walking alone with the night sky

constellations named after people to remember them by

Placeholders imagined after the sun

Tombstone Cassiopeia, Crypt Orion

I never knew them. They mean nothing to me;

a chart in a book, just something to see.

Now that you’re here to walk near and far

I’ll remember our moments much more than the stars

What’s your dog’s name?

I don’t know why we’re so obsessed with using posture and tone to infer criminality when we have perfectly good forehead slope ratios to achieve the exact same thing.

It’s been about 36 hours?

Maybe we’re using an old version or something, but code blocks still don’t expand horizontally to fill the available space, so we just get a horizontal slider bar.

or opened in a separate viewer for easier reading.

Yes, that’s my beef. If I need to juggle content to external text editors to read them, then IMO it has failed the categorical imperative of the tool.

Edit:

Back to work Monday morning:

Collapse all side bars, you get 89 monospaced characters. Approximately 2/3 of the horizontal screen space is reserved for empty space.

On a 4k monitor you can still only get about 80 characters of monospaced font per line, because of the “negative space” fetish UX designers have.

Something dead simple like posting a stack trace, and then having someone able to, you know, read it… It’s just not something teams really does well.

I can understand how the tooling probably does a ton of stuff that corporate users want (integrating with calendars, tons of access controls for spaces for important people to talk, etc) but for a dev working primarily with a handful of other devs and qas, there is a feature set mismatch. I can’t begin to tell you how badly I don’t give a shit about 99% of its features.

As soon as they toss one name, they acknowledge there are a list of names. As soon as there is a list of names, you gotta release the whole list.

Neither party wants that.

I mean, in this case it’s what it’s been fed, which is roughly the internet, which is roughly a giant heap of garbage.

We, collectively, are the programmers, and we fucking suck.

I mean, it’s a reasonable place to start at the very least?

We’re talking about pickpockets, right?

Someone tried to pickpocket me in Europe on the train. I blocked the door and, despite having no common language, I left them know I was aware they had taken my stuff. I’m pretty sure they understood it was my intention to get it back and that was going to be a hassle for everyone.

They just handed it back and left.

Should I have just started swinging?

I get it, but it has to be obvious how quickly this logic can spiral, though.

If I come around a corner and find you putting the boots to someone begging you to stop, you’re getting smoked by the biggest thing I can find. I don’t know the context. Violence to stop violence is measured.

Being wronged isn’t a carte blanche. As soon as you introduce violence, suddenly violence actually becomes the measured response against YOU.

To be fair I have infinity more confidence in the system you just described than whatever tech bro disruptor was going to pitch

I feel like these stories provide second-hand catharsis, but I don’t know if it’s necessarily a positive light.

Based on this I can only imagine they must have full throated support of the green line which would reduce intra-city traffic to allow for greater available capacity for provincial traffic.
