    Agreed. Notepad's got Markdown, it's what LLMs crave.

    yeah I played bg3 with controller split screen with my wife the entire playthrough. Normally, I would've strongly preferred KB+M for such a game. We definitely got used to it after…

    I wish I could go back and experience soulslikes for the first time! They really are a treat if you experience them as you describe (not everyone feels that way, but I certainly do…

    Thanks for sharing. I was a projectionist at a local theater in my 20s, and I have very fond memories of working with the older machines. There was something so satisfying working …

    The hype died down a little since most people who wanted in got invites by now. Still has a healthy player base and is a very good game though imo. If you want an invite feel free …

    I don't watch football, but in hockey they project digital ads onto the ice and parts of the plexiglass around the rink during the broadcasts that aren't there IRL. They are often …

    The killer feature for me with this app is the stupidly easy CSV loading. I deal with huge CSVs at work often. SQLite Browser is the easiest, fastest and most lightweight UI tool t…

    Good post, I agree with most of it. One that goes hand-in-hand with "just ask the question" is learning to know when to pivot. If you've hit a blocker, whether it's something to do…

    It can go both ways. The most common one I've seen is definitely taking too long to ask about something. The other is asking too many trivial questions about things you can look up…

    As with most things there's a balance. I've found if I try to learn one or two new features or shortcuts every couple weeks with the tools I use extensively, eventually I do get a …

    How did you ultimately find them out?

    Sounds eerily familiar. We've got someone who has done almost no work in their first 10 months. They were already assigned to a project I was on once, lied about progress repeatedl…

    Awesome, thanks. I was getting some sort of version error with the game file I was trying, but https://eblong.com/infocom/gamefiles/zork1-r119-s880429.z3 did the trick (renamed to …

    Actual game files seem to be here: https://github.com/historicalsource/ I also had trouble finding the window binaries for simh on the official github repo and wound up using a for…

    For the people saying it's fine for them, YouTube was blocking access but only doing it for certain accounts and only after you watched more than a few videos. My personal account …

    I might be misremembering, but I seem to recall geeksforgeeks being ok a few years ago. But I've started avoiding it because it seems like there's multiple nag screens in a row whe…

    It's been a problem since smartphones became widespread and people got addicted to them. And quite frankly the theater workers don't get paid enough to enforce the rules. Just one …

    If you aren't averse to using a third party package, on my personal projects I always found https://github.com/docopt/docopt to be nice. You can kill 2 birds with one stone by docu…
