What happens when you combine Emacs with gaming?
You get an environment in which any panel can display any visualization for any data type.
And if it's not there, you just develop it right there, live.
Coded support for multiple viewports as it draws 60fps :)

Funny how I still don't use AI for codegen, because it still doesn't get what I need just right for boundary pushing contexts
But wow has it replaced everything else; google, recipe websites, personal assistant, validating rough draft of ideas, expanding on hunches and much more
I always said programming inverts the perspective on art

Great programming happens when not realizing it too

Discovered a new method for detecting if someone is using Incognito in Chrome:
Write 512 tiny 1-byte responses into a scratch Cache API cache, then read:

@buildwithparas if I was a chef at a world-class restaurant, it might not be enough to play at that level, but to answer personal questions and learning at an intermediate level? gold :)
@buildwithparas oh it gets more than just giving recipes; I often go by "okay i have this and that + all the spices + here are my tastes what are options?" and start asking questions about the process "can I do this? what if I do that? what's the purpose of this? will it work if i replace this?"
@Grummz@DrClownPhD I remember buying my first ever LAN adapter just for D2
Took 30 minutes to install the game from the CD-ROMs
Still the best game in the whole series, by a long shot :D
