It’s Friday! I’m gonna wrap this up today. I’m throwing in 100 bucks of my own, so I’m putting my money where someone else’s mouth is. :)

Last call, send a few bucks if you want to spread joy with me!

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

Just trying something.

Our Girl Scout cookie season is over, and we still have 85 boxes: 510 dollars worth of cookies.

If people PayPal me, I will give these cookies out to Charlotte nurses, Waffle House employees, and any other good ideas y'all have.

(once I hit 510 bucks, I'll let you know, and refund anything that goes over.)

@krazyander Your wish is my command: https://t.co/LK6Aajvm79

(Note that the string is already calculated anyhow, and we cache and refcount NET_Addresses so we don't need to recreate them for every packet received. But this is still useful to have!)

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

SDL3_net is at prerelease! We'll probably move to an official 3.x release soon!

@krazyander (If you want the actual bytes, we can add that, but the string will be unique too.)

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

@krazyander For a stream socket: NET_GetStreamSocketAddress

For a datagram socket: NET_Datagram::addr in the received packet.

If you mean the actual bytes: hash the string from NET_GetAddressString

Cookie Queens trailer is out! Come see us in theaters August 7th! https://t.co/67FCAnQtMK

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

@_vkaku I was going to say, wow,, do I have good news for you…! :)

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

The SDL organization has an official position on LLMs and generative AI now: don't use it.

@vlads1776 Yeah, once you have everything set up, you just tell Claude to take care of it for you.

@kerm1t What 2026 is continuing to teach me is that attracting attention is not a desirable outcome. :)

@cathode_dreams @realbriel @rokups If you find yourself in an introspective mood at some point, consider what it was about your approach to the conversation that produced this response.

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

@realbriel @cathode_dreams @rokups You can follow my example here and choose not to get into arguments with strangers with obviously bad opinions.

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

@cathode_dreams @rokups I don’t really feel like having a Twitter debate with you, stranger, if I’m the observably-uninformed person brashly making big decisions that you are referring to.

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

@rokups It’s not just a question of correctness, it’s a question of license, and several other issues.

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

@jwatte Yes. :)

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

@monstercameron I'm broadcast-only here now, for the foreseeable future. This is true on most social media at this point, honestly. :/

[Ryan C. Gordon @icculus]

Feel free to tell them the same.
