When Kojima announced Death Stranding 2, he joked about rewriting the entire thing after the pandemic because he was trying to avoid predicting the future again. The guy has some k…

So this isn't replacing the main implementation? They just funded a new project written in Rust that is compatible?

I love fish. Switch from ZSH+Prezto to just plain Fish and I'm not missing anything and it's way faster. All the servers have bash and I still write bash scripts, but for day-to-da…

We have developers of various experience and skillsets that come and go, sticking to a subset of language features with minimal magic has made it easier to onboard and get people p…

Don't you just level up as high as possible in bioware or bethesda games? Not what I would consider "minmaxing". Skyrim is fun because I can get everything to 100 at whatever pace …

As a lifelong rubyist, this is definitely what I would say "useless". Maybe it's just because I've been stuck in Ruby 2.6 ~~hell~~ land for so long but I remember seeing a colleagu…

Minmaxing in almost any game is excruciatingly unfun though, it's not unique to Pokemon. I can't think of a faster way to kill the enjoyment of any game than to try to minmax.

None. He's original to Mario RPG. The allusion to Final Fantasy is just an easter egg.

Coding was hard when I was coding for the sake of coding. Turns out after you spend a decade solving problems and creating/maintaining products that “coding” is probably the least …

Another christmas approaching, another depressing realization that I'll probably be stuck on ruby 2.6.9 and Rails 5 until I change companies.

Abraham Lincoln, I'm pretty sure.

Not with that attitude.

It’s either more time or less features. Less testing is non-negotiable.

Definitely a very bad idea. The first 2 or so weeks felt euphoric to me but after that it was pure hell for months and months.
