@Leterren @crazywalt77 @standupmaths The one I'm thinking of is in one of those class pictures you took in school, and I wouldn't even know where to find them. And honestly, it's not in my best interest to look, so I won't deliberately look for it. If I run across it organically I might share it one day...

I still think about the video where @standupmaths discussed a programming oversight I made at great lengths. He was so very correct. I was young, ok?? (But I can justify using 64 instead of 63 as the stack cap, as having 0 of something doesn't need to be enumerated)

@crazywalt77 @standupmaths I know, right?? I was like "Oh! If I just check if there is ground just under the player's feet when they press the jump button, it'll work the same if I make the epsilon small enough." It's like thinking back on that time I had hair and chose to frost the tips.

@notch @standupmaths I feel you, man. I wrote some quick code and found a good workaround for a problem at work. I thought, "No one will do this weird thing to break my workaround. Barely anyone will even use it!" They're still using and breaking the code a decade later.🙄😱🤷‍♂️

@theo The one I did about pull requests, perhaps a little bit, yes... But this thing was purely coming from me getting repeatedly nerd sniped by trying to create the perfect generic types.

@wisq @standupmaths Yep. I got reminded of it again because I watched @DisplacedGamers latest video and was thinking to myself "at least people aren't discussing my bugs on the intern... oh"

@MoNoLidThZ It's even worse. To transpile TS to JS you just remove everything that makes it TS so you're left with the JS (with some nuance for stuff like enums and setting fields directly from a constructor) What actually takes time when compiling TS is just updating the documentation.

TypeScript is an insane quagmire for absolutely no benefit beyond documentation.

@fakenewsduck It's a confusing experience, at least when hung over. There's layers upon layers of people pausing and rewinding the video that you yourself is pausing and rewinding.

@thekitze What? There always has been, say, physical pain. So the chase for not poking yourself in the eye is pointless?

it always has been slop. humans made slop. slop libraries slop frameworks and slop languages. the chase for perfect code is pointless. there's no such thing as clean code.
ThePrimeagen@ThePrimeagen

Unfortunately no matter how judicious I am, no matter how much I review the code, it feels impossible to not let the slop slip in. I feel like you can prevent it from overflowing, but without your hands getting dirty, you don't really know the state of the project.

I don't remember specifically what journey that piece of programmer art went on, but I can confirm that starting from a simple base and adding filters such as blur and noise is a thing I still do to this day. Sometimes I try to do the noise by hand, but it inevitably ends up with weird repeating patterns.

@be3zy_b In the original cobblestone texture, I only see about 5-6 colours, maybe a few more. I'm guessing he used a blur tool or a gradient and also adjusted the contrast to create the new one! @notch Can you confirm?
