@capncleaver Dude, I loved puzzle pirates so much in high school. I still think about it often and how fun and truly unique it was. Thank you!

@Jonathan_Blow @auderdy Fair enough, though I hope you stay in one of the neighborhoods when you visit :) NOPA / Divisadero for example is much 'nicer' (certainly fancier, ymmv) than it was in late 90s / 2000s. Even St Pete's has some less salubrious areas, no?

Today I was in an SF cafe with polished concrete floors feeling sad about leaving plush Vienna where I spent the past 6.5 weeks surrounded by beautiful historical architecture and eating complex cakes…but then in this cafe I met a dude building a hotel on the moon (right after I’d gotten a tour of my friend’s nearby office where his team just built a fully autonomous, electric truck). The majority of people in Vienna have never ridden and don’t believe self driving cars are real — since I’ve been back stateside I’ve basically only not driven in Teslas and Waymos Going from Vienna to SF feels less like taking a flight — it’s more like a Time Machine

@jackcrawford__ This was a banger line

@machinamentum Boom! That's awesome, great progress!

@wookash_podcast @marcoshealey 🙌

Had a chat with @marcoshealey about his games, ragdoll kung fu, dungeon keeper, little big planet 1&2, Dreams and more! Will be out in couple of weeks, but in the meantime, enjoy this Purple Pants Dreams demo Mark made back in the day youtube.com/watch?v=xF2UY8…

@machinamentum Does Snakebird count? store.steampowered.com/app/357300/Sna…

Around 2019, I was working on a snake clone and I had thoughts about what a sokoban game would be like if the player controlled a snake. I had not thought of a way to make it interesting beyond being blocked by the body. I find this interesting so I'll link games attempting this:

@shl Address change for self and business (8822 and 8822-B) online would be great!

What should the IRS ship in 2026?

"It is possible to build an API that is simpler to use than DirectX 11 and Metal 1.0, yet it offers better performance and flexibility than DirectX 12 and Vulkan."

@jackcrawford__ From the discord: > To be clear, that voiceover was just for the trailer. We expect the final VO to be much higher quality

gameplay will be peak and i will play for 2 weeks straight let’s get that out of the way but The Witness looked better 3 years before release. lighting…and the black outlines… worse, the cartoonish dialogue clashes hard with the epic fantasy world. managing expectations

@DanielcHooper Congrats!!!

A project shipped this week that I played a small but important role in. Very proud.

@AgileJebrim Gotcha, thanks!

Shortcircuit the variable into an output either visually or into another buffer that’s then inspected. Both can have their exact memory contents read from within Nsight Graphics. It’s unfortunately a lot of commenting and temporary modifications to the shader. The experience could definitely be improved greatly.

@AgileJebrim How do you step through your shaders? Does Nsight have breakpoints, view variables, etc?

@AgileJebrim Sweet! what do you do now for debugging? I'm curious about writing my programs as compute shaders, but I wondered what debugging looked like. Just look at the inputs and outputs?

@conundrumer Apparently there was a popup in west village: x.com/claudeai/statu…

@jackcrawford__ Those were great! I want more!

cringe in hindsight how i spent so much effort on like Fantano-style reviews in 2020ish. straight up dead format in the age of social media. you can fit your opinion in a tweet bro. you don't need 10 minutes of generic adjectives. in my defense i wasn't on social media back then

@DanielcHooper Oh interesting!

@markdotdev I chose zig for this because it caches the compilation result automatically.

How to use zig to make any C file run like a shell script: 1. put `//usr/bin/env zig run $0 -- $@; exit` as the first line in the c file 2. make it executable: chmod +x file.c 3. run it: ./file.c

@its_bvisness @Wassimulator My thoughts exactly!

.@Wassimulator’s talk from BSC is a gem - clear exposition, great visuals, and way more in depth than it has any right to be youtu.be/MrIAw980iYg?si…

@ThePrimeagen Yes!!!

casey says the people are demanding a reaction should i watch this video? it literally will be 8 hours long
