Agreed. I think a tutorial step with mixing from obvious directions followed by the current one would be better.

That sucks. I'm excited about a lot of things. I can't imagine COVID really changed that for other people - though I suspect you're right that it did.

I'm having a hard time understanding how this leads to lay offs. Software engineering salaries being amortized over 5 years leads to an increase in yearly taxable income for the co…

The FAQ states: > Why so many from Konami? > That’s because of Yoshinori “Moai” Sasaki. (ref) https://moai.games/faq/

They're still using the oven temperature example further down, unfortunately.

I think the fake white bookshelf wallpaper has a certain aesthetic about it. I would like it in an AirBnB type of place, but definitely not in my own house. I would also want it to…
