Need more tools to bind all these feature together:

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 :)

@AakashGourX Very much so!

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

Good software is invisible. That's why all software is bad because the managers demand visibility of programmers work.

I always said programming inverts the perspective on art

Great code happens when we no longer notice it at all;
because when we do it comes from bugs and issues

Great programming happens when not realizing it too

Chat, what do we do to fear?

Thanks gonna add a tampermonkey injection to hide it :)

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:

https://t.co/gsVNLl57y6.estimate().usageDetails.caches

Normal Chrome: ~393kb
Incognito: ~85kb

Why? When you're in incognito, Chrome writes to memory instead of disk, which leaves less metadata residue

Advice I learned from working in a restaurant's kitchen:

The startup making the most money isn't the one selling
the most, its the one raising the least to find market fit :)

@opdroid1234 I bet yours was as fun to make as mine was :)

These side quests have a way to blow our own minds :D

[Jeremie Pelletier @HostOfMeta]

@DanraeP Yeah, reminds of Licklider's "getting in position to think"

The bottleneck always came from getting a local context

Fun side quest - compute kernels written in a dsl inside chez and compiled to spirv

@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 :)

[Jeremie Pelletier @HostOfMeta]

@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?"

Tricky part comes when the personal boundary grows
faster than the environment boundary can afford to :)

@opdroid1234 For a second I wondered if this was literate org-mode

Then noticed the ### over the *** and no BEGIN_SRC

@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

@2sush The real subscription was the friends we made along the way 😇

@Grummz The steam engine stopped by finding thermodynamics :)
