Seems everyone's talking about Titanium Court now that it's released. …And, as it turns out, I /also/ have a release review of the game at the ready. Here's my *gameplay-only* review, its two "tides", and whether the most effective strategy is fun or not. fairysvoice.net/blog/A_gamepla…

If the web platform is standardised then explain THIS

It is with a slightly-encumbered heart that I report that Twitter now requires you to manually turn off automatic translation for every single individual language you encounter, and there's no setting to do it en masse.

I was just browsing Twitter, and right while I was reading, it started auto-translating Japanese tweets without my asking and I had to click the "Show original" button to turn it off.

GNOME would be so cool if they had simply renamed to "G-NOME"🧬. I'm telling you. They were one piece of punctuation off from greatness.

Thinking about software names with common one-letter prefixes… Apple's "i" is trying too hard to be cool. G from GNU should be cool like "g-force" but gets attached to and silenced by "n" way too often. q from Qt has a whiff of wrongness to it. X from X11 is downright ugly.

I've often said browser-side web programming is about trying to communicate between three languages at once (HTML, CSS, JS). Well, if you add JSON, two XML sublangs (SVG and MathML), two shader languages (WebGL and WebGPU), and WASM, it's actually much, much worse than that.

Welcome to… THE GAME DESIGN MINUTE Kiddy Kong's skipping-stone water-bounce should have exponentially increased in height on each bounce until you could fly over half the level like the springboards in SMB Lost Levels …Thus concludes THE GAME DESIGN MINUTE

Was reading a really old forum post about the Wayback Machine, and one of the pages linked from it was this worryingly contemporary-feeling "you can just make a website" page from 1997 web.archive.org/web/1997011016…

Thinking about how fortunate it is that when Phil Katz invented the most ubiquitous compression format in history, he called it "Deflate". Easy to remember and apt. Meanwhile, every compression format created after it is some substring of LZWSSMA78265.

So you've run into that age-old problem: every time you mispronounce semicolon as "se-mico-lon" over and over, people quickly make you stop. But did you know that if you sneak into the wilderness during new moon, you can say that word incredibly wrong as many times as you want?

子供のころにシビれたファミコンのグラフィック３選👀 １、スーパーマリオの地下ではキャラが暗い色になった！ ２、スターフォースで破壊すると建物の影も消えた！ ３、ドラクエ２ではキャラを4ピクセル上にズラして配置することで立体的になった！

These oven gloves I've got are shedding a lot of their internal lining, thus upgrading them to "exciting gloves that make removing things from the oven an exciting experience".
