I mean, he’s said before that shitty code doesn’t make for a good or bad game. He gave examples of lots of successful games that have “bad” code and that it doesn’t matter and people should just make games.

I think I understand your overall sentiment. Just wanna boot up games and not think about settings, compatibility, framerates and stuff. I know what you mean.

lobut@lemmy.cato Programming@programming.dev•JavaScript broke the web (and called it progress)5·19 days agoWhat’s going on with your keyboard? I’m curious, what’s your native language?
I don’t think I really understood the compilation portion.
Compiling in the web world can also include … type checking which I think is good, minifying code which is good, bundling code which is good. I understand that in this article that they allude to the fact that those can be bad things because devs just abuse it like expecting JavaScript to tree shake and since they don’t understand how tree-shaking works, they will just assume it does and accidentally bloat their output.
Also some static site generators could do things that authors and stuff don’t think about like accessibility and all that.
I think you can do
const thing = ... as const
to lock down the mutation?
lobut@lemmy.cato Science Memes@mander.xyz•Hertz, showing the difference between science and engineeringEnglish60·24 days agoThere’s a good NPR podcast in the same vein as this: https://www.npr.org/sections/money/2017/06/21/533840751/episode-779-shrimp-fight-club
It’s about congressman talking about government waste and targeting the sciences. It’s like, you don’t get the “cool” applications without the “weird” research. I’m doing a horrible job describing it, but I thought it was a good listen.
lobut@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is an actor you can't stand, but everyone likes?2·27 days agoI think that’s why I enjoyed Gone Girl. I didn’t have to like him and his smugness or whatever worked into the character.
lol yes I understand I know I sound silly. My home/end aren’t typical on my keyboard. It’s like function and stuff, which breaks my flow for something I do so often.
I use VS Code mainly and I always want to go to the end of a line and beginning. On Mac it’s like CTRL+E and CTRL+A respectively. On Windows, I was like, I guess I could do Windows Key and arrows but it felt off. Installing Vim bindings on VS Code just fixed this all for me. I love it.
[edit] for non-VIM users, you can skip words and go-to braces (and delete what’s in them) and highlight within quotes very easily … for function search, the built-in VS Code is really good too. I also have Harpoon installed to hop between files. If it doesn’t appeal to you, then that’s cool too! Whatever keeps you in there. [/edit]
I’ve tried setting up my own vim stuff and I always bail out because I can’t figure something out. I feel like I need to really sit with it and I’d have the perfect set up for me.
Lastly, I’ve installed vim for zsh and it’s the best. I can hop all around my terminal and highlight and remove things. It’s so beautiful.
Not a word of a lie, I saw a “segmentation fault” error in JavaScript.
Can’t remember how we resolved it, but it did blow my mind.

lobut@lemmy.cato Technology@beehaw.org•A year later, Apple Vision Pro owners say they regret buying the $3,500 headset - "It's just collecting dust"2·2 months agoYeah, I’d feel creeped out with those glasses too, lol.
The Beyond 2 looks pretty neat especially with the light weight. In addition to the points you’ve made above. The main things which stops me from using my VR headset now is that there is no real killer app for me (Beat Saber, and Superhot were awesome but I’m largely done with those now) and it feels a bit lonely doing VR a lot.

I don’t think they’re VR, I think they’re AR? nonetheless, what do you think?
Silo is an amazing show too.

He was trying to get more info knowing that he had the resources to fight anything if it came up.
Although it’s wise for everyone to really not yap to cops.
Yeah, I’m not in any way medically anything but I think I remember Dr Mike or one of those talking about how brain death is considered death or something like that.
I remember somewhere they were saying you should remove your clothes (slowly piece by piece) with a polar bear. The bear will get distracted and start sniffing your clothes.
I think it was a QI episode and then David Mitchell said something like that Polar Bear being happier in the fact that the human would be better to eat this time because it didn’t have a wrapper.
That’s because you need to do things like stay hydrated, eat a healthy diet and keep your cell division count as low as possible.
